About the host
Hosted by Tammy Hughes
Originally from Duluth, MN. I moved here and fell in love with the area. The beautiful bluffs, chiseled out by the Root River, make this one of the most beautiful places in the state.
Why they chose this property
The quaint small town of Whalan is a wonderful place to spend some time outdoors with your friends.
What makes this property unique
with a bluff in the back yard, and the river and the bike trail in the front, you can spend all day, just watching the bikes go by.
