About this property

We have a wonderful and peaceful place for family gatherings nestled down a hill, in a private cul de sac, and on a river-and the other side of the river is uninhabited DNR land-it doesn’t get more private!

Ideal for small company leadership or church staff retreats as well. 21.5 acres of land up against 1500 feet of river frontage. Take time to truly “be present” and enjoy your family with cookouts, fishing along the river , or reading in solitude. Quiet clubs like scrapbooking, or nature enthusiasts will enjoy 16.5 acres of unplatted land. All of this, and only ~30 miles from the Twin Cities! You’ll feel
Like you are hours away. Some have shared that it has a very ‘up north’ feeling-probably due to the cabin with high quality log furniture throughout. 4 queen beds-2 of them have twin log bunks. All beds except the master are made of Minnesota pine-the State Tree.

For the enjoyment of all future guests, no smoking of any kind of tobacco, and no pets are allowed for any VRBO/Home Away reservations. Thank you.

Beautiful Property

We were in the area for a wedding. The cabin is spacious and beautiful with plenty of room. The property is secluded, with great views. Wish we had more time to enjoy it.
