Cabin was very nice and had all the essentials you need. Nice quiet, beautiful area to enjoy the lake. Great fishing off the dock and in the canoe. The lake was nice for swimming and floating. I little hard to get into the lake due to the large rocks at the shoreline and dock is up high. The hosts were very gracious to allow us to have 3 dogs.

We had our whole family with us. 7 adults and 2 kids along with our dog. Mike and Patty were very helpful. We rented the pontoon boat for the week which added a lot of fun for our trip. The one thing we noticed is the beds were a full size and not queen and not many kitchen utensils for my liking but we made it work. Next time I’d just bring my own since we did all of our cooking there! It was a great relaxing week there and would definitely go back! Just FYI the stairs to upstairs are pretty steep, but worked out fine for us. Had plenty of firewood for our fires, grill was great! It was nice to be back hidden away from anything so it felt like we were even further up north.

This place was beautiful, immaculate and well-stocked. Even the woodwork inside the cabin was flawless (I am a woodworker)! The renters were extremely responsive, very helpful and generous. All of the amenities were set up the way I would do it. As a couple of examples, there was a large gas grill with an extra propane tank in case the active one ran out. They had a fish cleaning table that had very high flow running water outside. There was a VERY nice canoe available for our use. I HIGHLY recommend this rental to anyone who would like a peaceful outing in a beautiful lakeside location. I cannot laud the owners and their rental enough. Thanks Mike and Patty!!

This house was everything we were looking for and more. Very comfortable and roomy. The bunk house was so nice, going to bed to the sunset and waking up to the sun rise. Fishing off the dock was beautiful and peaceful. The peace and quiet alone was worth every penny. The owner was very receptive to our questions despite being away himself. Plenty of the essentials to get us going before needing to head to the store. 10 out of 10. Would rents again.
The view never got old regardless of time of day.

Family Fun

We had a small family gathering and this was a great spot to hang out, swim, and catch some fish! The bunk house was a great find for cousins to share space and good laughs. The upstairs is very comfortable, but yes, the stairs are very steep. Nicely fixed up cabin! Comfortable beds and pillows. Kitchen was well stocked to cook and grill all week. Dock is nice. Heads up for people with smaller kids- entry into the water from land isn't really an option (rocky and then a touch mucky with some mild clumps of weeds that are avoidable) but if your kids like jumping from the end of the dock into 4.5 feet of water, can use a life jacket, bring a lily pad, or use a boat- this swimming situation will work for you! We had a great time at this A frame cabin and would do it again and recommend to others! -Christine

Three generations making memories

Every year, we invite our children and grandchildren to spend a week at a cabin. Our goal is to bond as a family and make memories doing the simple things. This cabin is surrounded by nature and its beauty. We saw eagles, pelicans, cormorants, loons, herons and more. We caught walleye, northern pike, crappie, and perch. We laughed when the cows in the nearby pasture came so close we thought they were in our yard. We bought jam, pickles, syrup and sweet corn from a local Amish family. We ventured into Osakis for ice cream and sampling at Panther Distillery. Yes, the stairs are steep heading to the upper bedrooms. But they are better than the ladder I climbed to get into the loft of other cabins. We appreciated the wagon for hauling firewood as well as moving groceries from our cars. We brought our own floatables so the kids could swim (right off the dock) but plenty of life jackets were provided on the pontoon (well worth the rental fee for those of us who love a leisurely cruise). We also brought a few campfire chairs for our almost nightly fires. The owners were friendly but not invasive. Their response was extremely quick when we had questions. A great quiet hideaway!

Beautifully Updated Cabin, Friendly Owner, Beautiful Nature - HIGHLY recommend for memory building!

Walking through the cabin I was impressed--beautifully updated kitchen and bathroom, new paint and carpet throughout, and I could tell the owners cared about the details. The owner Mike was easy to reach for booking our stay and responsive to questions/inquiries before and during our stay. When we arrived he greeted us and showed us around the property and described all the amenities. This cabin is quiet and perfect for relaxing and connecting with people and nature. The upstairs is two bedrooms, each with full-sized beds. Ample space and separation from main rooms/outside to bring a pack-n-play for sleeping baby/toddler(s). Ceiling fans in all rooms and nice wood blinds to block out light if needed. Beds are comfy and furniture is sturdy, never a need for places to sit even with a big group. The downstairs has the kitchen, full bathroom, eat-in kitchen, bedroom with queen bed, and living room with 2 full-size futons that were comfortable for sitting and sleeping. The furniture is solid and not cheap. You can see out the back to the lake when you walk in the front door as the entire side of the house facing the lake is glass sliding doors. Gorgeous views all day long and breathtaking sunsets. We're city dwellers and oft don't "rough it" so this was a nice home away from home. The back porch runs the length of the house. There's a grill, large patio table on the lawn, hammock (hubby's fave), campfire area with chairs and picnic table. The "bunk house" is a small house next to the cabin with bunk beds. Perfect for kids/teens to have a sleepover or adults to sleep separate. Also nice mattresses. The steps down to the lake are covered in trex deck material and therefore nice and sturdy. The dock is wonderful and our sons LOVED fishing off the dock (with intro lesson by owner Mike). We rented the pontoon and pulled the kids behind tubing, and boated around the lake and even parked in the middle and jumped off to swim. Truly a fantastic experience full of memories, thanks in no small part to Mike and his wife's attention to detail and focus on customer service. Some perks/things we didn't know about this property before renting: 1) this property has an adjoining campsite that Mike also owns that can be rented separately; 2) the stairs going to the top floor can be steep for those who don't climb well though there are railings on both sides; and 3) Mike was in a nearby cabin which was GREAT if we needed advice, help, or forgot something. We will return :)!

Thank you for your review Heidi, and also thank you for your personal feedback on our property, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay! One small correction - the beds in the upstairs bedrooms are queen sized, not full/double. (That extra six inches is a lot when there are two of you!)

So relaxing, perfect family time!

We all spent very little time 'out', and most of our time in the cabin playing games, doing puzzles and watching movies together. The hosts were very responsive and generous. The cabin was well supplied with very nice bedding. Everyone had a great time! I would definitely book this one again!

Summer 2022

We had a great week. The property was clean and as listed. It is located at the end of the road so we had privacy. The lake is smaller with not a lot of boat traffic which made for a very peaceful week on the water.

Mediocre

Communication was not good. Very long (weeks) time before getting a response from owners. The beds, bedding, pillows, are all mediocre. My bed felt like it leaned. Owner was there frequently which takes away that camping feel. The driveway in is very narrow and the branches rub against vehicles. Spiders! Lots of spiders that got in our stuff and is now an issue we have to deal with. They say checkout is 11, but it’s actually 10 and the night before I was asked when we will be out because the cleaning lady wanted to know. Nothing about thank you for staying, hope it was good, nothing.

Great Getaway!

We were very happy with our cabin experience! The beginning of the week was just my husband, our 9 and 11 year olds, and me. Then later in the week family joined us. Mike came over and helped set up the pontoon rental for us, and answered many of our questions. He talked fishing and tubing with my kids. Very patient and kind. My son caught fish within seconds just casting from the dock. The lake was calm for pontooning, tubing, kayaking, canoeing and just swimming and floating on tubes- and fishing. We did use the bunk house with the arrival of family members. The kids thought it was fun and gave us more space. The kitchen was stocked with all the essentials one would need. The weather was perfect for our stay. Thanks for a good week!

Very clean and nice experience

Rental property had everything we needed in the cabin for supplies. This was a huge surprise as we did not have to use our supplies. When we arrived we had our own pontoon and the owners let us use their second dock for our pontoon. I would consider renting the property again in a he future.

Nature Lovers Retreat

The property is private and is surrounded by nature. There are 40 acres of woodland with deer, turtles and birds. The lake was peaceful and the weather ideal during our stay. Be sure to plan for drinking water and depending on the time of year you visit, the weeds in the lake made fishing more challenging than we would have liked. However, northern and bass were caught and the bluegill were very active. Overall, the setting was peaceful and Mike was available to answer any questions we had. He referred us to a retired boat repair guy who tuned up my brothers boat free of charge. That was awesome!

Nicest cabin in the area!

The cabin is nice (the photos are accurate) and living area and eat-in kitchen is spacious. Bedrooms are small without closets, but the beds are comfortable and there is drawer space and luggage racks. The stairs are very steep as others have mentioned and without a bathroom up that can be a challenge for those staying upstairs. Kitchen is nicely outfitted. We would prefer not to have carpet (floors are tile and carpet) from a cleanliness standpoint, but know that is a personal preference. There is central air conditioning which was a real plus for us—all other cabins we’ve stayed in the area had window units. The unit is in a utility closet in the downstairs bedroom (which creates white noise for those who sleep with a sound machine.) The small bunk house is cute but we didn’t use it. The location is quiet because it is at the very end of a narrow, winding dirt road. The road quality and access is not a plus for us, but that also is a personal preference. The fishing was as good as my husband (who is a catch and release from the dock kind of fisherman) has had in the area, so that was a plus! Our grandchildren visited us a couple of days and enjoyed fishing too. We also took them for a ride on a pontoon boat and saw the eagle’s nest and bald eagles. Thanks to Mike for his assistance in using the boat. It was a pleasant week!

Another great stay!

This was our second visit to this cabin and it was just as great as the first time! Everything is clean and well-kept. The owners are friendly, responsive, and usually nearby if issues arise. Once again we were able to enjoy the lake with the pontoon. We had a wonderful time with our family and will probably be back for a third time!

Wonderful Girls weekend

The cabin was beautiful! Honestly the only negative I can say is to be aware of the stairs to upstairs. I would not suggest elderly or young children as they are VERY steep stairs. When remodeling, these stairs were once a ladder. Other than that, hosts were helpful and cabin was perfect!!!

Peaceful lake spot

We had a very nice stay. The lake was small but quiet and there was lots of wildlife to see. We enjoyed listening to the loons and seeing them on the water. We had lots of fun on the pontoon, it was nice and worked well. We fished and tubed. Owner Mike answered the phone right away when we had a question and he stopped by, giving us some bait and lures, which was very kind. We caught sunfish off the dock and kayaked on the lake as well. The dock and boat lift are in very good condition. Some of our party had a little trouble with the steps to the lake; they are in good repair, but a handrail would be a helpful addition. The cabin was extremely nice inside and everything was clean, and the wifi and satellite tv were much appreciated when it was rainy. The , worked well, and we found all cooking utensils, etc that we needed. We found the beds could be more comfortable, but often have the same opinion of hotel beds. There was plenty of seating inside and outside; we enjoyed a fire for some campfire cooking and s'mores. I would definitely stay again, thanks so much for a relaxing vacation!
