Perfectly Located in Hunting Lands, ATV and Snowmobile Trails. WiFI SMART TV
This 2-bedroom cabin is perfect for your escape to the great North Woods. Nestled in a tranquil setting on 10 private acres, our fabulous property offers a cozy yet modern retreat for guests. You'll have easy access to hiking, biking, ATV, and snowmobile trails throughout the State Forest and the Superior National Forest surrounding the cabin, including 700 acres of public land directly across the street to the north.
Inside, the cabin boasts a freshly remodeled setting. As you enter, you'll find a spacious open area that includes a fully equipped kitchen, allowing you to prepare your own meals. The dining table seats six, and the comfortable living room, complete with a Smart TV, provides a perfect spot to relax after a day of outdoor adventures.

About the host
Hosted by Garrett Simensen
Having lived in many places throughout the country and even in England,
Garrett and his family are grateful to call northern Minnesota home. He and
his wife Lauren have been raising their 3 young kids in the northland since
2020 and couldn't think of a better place to call home. Like many we live
here to be outdoors! We live just a 2 miles away on a 40 acre hobby farm. We bought this property so our family could come visit us from out of state and have their own place to stay. When it is not being used by them and our friends we love sharing it with anyone who wants to experience all the great opportunities Northern Minnesota has to offer.
