About this property

Charming Lake Cabin

Lake cabin with sandy beach on Long Lake near Park Rapids.
Up north 3 hours from the Twin Cities.
1 bedroom, 1 bathroom.
Great fishing, free use of dock and boat launch, kayaks, canoe, grill and firepit.
The property is allowed to have 4 people per county license. This cabin sleeps 2 comfortably since there is only one bedroom (king size bed). There is loveseat and oversize chair in living area that could also be used if needed.
We would also appreciate that there are no other or extra guests invited to the cabin during your stay.
Recently added a window Air Conditioner so it keeps cabin quite comfy.
Thanks,
Mark

What a great find this was! The “Summer House” was very clean and comfortable and the views of the lake were beautiful. We were so thankful for the use of Mark’s kayaks for a quick trip around the lake. After a few days on the road this was just the place we needed to relax a bit. Mark is one of the most gracious hosts we have come across. Would definitely stay here again.

As first time VRBO users we couldn't have asked for a better host. The location was secluded yet minutes away from shopping/dining etc. Mark was very communicative throughout the entire booking process. Small but meaningful touches included pre-stacked wood by the bonfire pit, a notification that the cabin was available for an early check-in if we arrived prior to 4:00, a recycling bin and accessible hosts throughout the weekend. Highly recommend.

Beautiful property, clean and comfy space, and welcoming hosts. Got great nights sleep after days of hiking at the State Park. I loved my time there and probably would stay again. My only issue was the shower stall is quite small, and I couldn't shower without bumping my elbows. I'm 5'10, with long arms and legs and it just wasn't an enjoyable experience. Otherwise, all around great place to stay!

Thanks for info about shower. It needs to be bigger and nicer. We are working on replacing it before next year.

Felt like home. The cabin has quality comfortable furniture, well decorated, clean, great Weber grill and out door flat top grill. The view is beautiful. The lake is clean and sandy. We visited Itasca State Park three times. The hikes and facilities never disappoint.Great kayak trips on the Lake. Caught some enormous Large Mouth Bass fishing in my kayak. Park Rapids and the quirky little town of Dorset are close by. Mark is a phenomenal host. He is very responsive yet leaves you to enjoy your stay. Guest are very fortunate they share their Summer House.We hope to return in the fall for another relaxing stay.
