It was nice and quiet. We enjoyed the pedal boat. The "clean" smell was pretty strong when we arrived but it disappated quickly. It was a great place to disconnect from day to day pressure.

Nice quiet cabin

Very clean cabin as described. Host was very responsive and friendly. The living rm area was larger then I thought with plenty of rm to play games and 2 tables. The lake area was quiet and kids enjoyed taking out the pedalboat to check out some loons. Fun weekend stay.

True cabin!

This is a great place for the true cabin experience. If you stay here you’ll really feel like you’re getting away. The space holds 4 people very confortably. The cabin was larger than I expected it to be, too. Will stay here again when we are in the area.

Cabin Sweet Cabin

We enjoyed relaxing at this cozy little cottage in the woods. The cabin was very clean and the bathroom renovation was spectacular. The grounds were well kept with some pretty perennial flowers around the cabin. We enjoyed the small deck with a picnic table for outdoor dining and a fire pit for making s’mores.

Cabin Getaway

The cabin was cute! Nice to be by a lake, short walk. I will say there are other cabins and houses around you. We were provided a paddle boat and canoe. This made the over all experience fun.

Family getaway

This was our second stay at this cabin. Once again it was a great quite family getaway. Very minimal lake traffic during the week. Family enjoyed the pedal boat, fishing, swimming, and kayaking. Excellent communication with the property owner. Being pet friendly is a big plus for us.

About the host

Hosted by Valerie L Gaglierde

Host profile image
Retired transplant from Lake Tahoe, California. Worked in the hospitality industry all my life.

Why they chose this property

I lived in the cabin for 2 years after retiring here to Minnesota. Got married and we live nearby. We decided to vacation rental the property instead of selling it. Its a small neighborhood at Turtle Lake.

What makes this property unique

Owl trail cabin is tucked away on 2.5 acres at Turtle Lake. It is a smaller spring fed lake with good fishing. The Lincoln Lakes area is located within 15 minutes east of my cabin where there is Muskie fishing. Golfing is close by too!
