We had a wonderful 4-day stay at this cozy lake cabin. The space was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The lake views were beautiful and made for the perfect relaxing getaway. Being able to rent the pontoon was a bonus. Shannon was responsive, helpful and easy to work with. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful lake, great outdoors space right next to the lake, bonus to able to rent the pontoon (it needs some work), air conditioning doesn’t work well and is noisy, needed to use noisy fans and still hot and uncomfortable, down stairs beds are good, loft needs safety rails. Didn’t feel safe climbing up and down steep ladder to loft (no rails or safety handles). It was difficult sleeping in the heat and noise. Otherwise, the host seemed very nice. The cabin has a nice size table, very comfortable couches, and soft rug. The cabin has lots of positives. Very clean full size fridge and microwave, outdoor grill on back deck looking at the lake, nice size table and picnic table. We really enjoyed the fire pit by the lake, amazing view!

Family Vacation

We had a fun family vacation. Our granddaughter thought it was cool that she could kayak with us on the kids kayak that was available to use. We all enjoyed fishing on the pontoon available to rent. We had good weather and the fish were biting. It was nice get away with our family. Shannon was always available if we had any questions. Thanks for a fun family getaway.

Excellent trip

This was our second time at the cabin, and have enjoyed both trips. The last trip was 5 years ago and when we asked our girls where we should take our summer trip, they wanted to come back. Between the paddle boat, kayak, hanging out in the boat house, pontoon, and just enjoying the lake; everyone had a great time. Neighbors were friendly and we caught some fish off the dock. Shannon was very responsive if we had any questions and made sure we were happy with our stay.

Fun time at rustic cabin

This is a really fun place to stay if you like a rustic time on the lake. The cabin is very well kept and stocked. We love being able to use the pontoon to cruise around the lake. The lake is very nice for boating and swimming. The firepit is close to the water and is one of the premiers of staying at this cabin. This is perfect for a small family. The check in and check out process was flawless.

Little get away

Very nice place to stay. Rustic with a view. Had some small upgrades that need to be looked at. The pontoon is nice to take a trip around the lake and fish from. The engine needs a tune up to make it run better. I would stay there again if i am back in this area again.

Authentic Lake Cabin

It's a wonderful place that shows off the beauty that the builders saw when they decided to build there with all the comforts of home. Large screen TV, full kitchen and a large, for a cabin, hot water heater! Warm showers! Hot coffee looking out the lakeside window in the morning watching the mist clear off the lake was perfect. Great times!

Good

Great for fishing trips. Comfortable and has everything you’d need. Water is smelly but there’s a water cooler provided so just the shower is where that matters. That is really the only minor complaint, rest was as advertised and nice.

About the host

Hosted by Shannon Olson

Host profile image
Hello! My name is Shannon Olson. Currently I live in Hawley, MN with my two teenage children. I teach Family and Consumer Science at Hawley High School, and I coach volleyball in the fall. I stay busy throughout the school year with work, attending school athletic events, and cheering my kids on at their activities. During the summer, I love spending time in the lakes area, running, taking care of my yard, reading, and playing volleyball.
I love being a host because it's so fun to share this cabin with others and hear about the memories they make at my place.

Why they chose this property

This property is a True Minnesota Lake Cabin. Great rustic feel with some modern benefits. The acreage of fishable water is amazing.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is the perfect place to relax and unplug. Kids love the lofts and all the extra games and toys available. Outside, there is a nice yard, firepit, and boathouse. The boathouse is stocked with water toys, firewood, roasting sticks, a bar, extra fishing rods, a fish cleaning station, and even a Smart TV! A pontoon is also available for additional rental.
If you want to venture out, there are some fun things to explore. By boat or by foot, you can reach The End of the Road Resort. They sell bait, treats and are a great resource to have nearby. You can also reach Middle Cormorant lake by boat. They have a great swimming beach, as well as "Sauce'd" bar and grill.
