Relaxing, clean, and comfortable. Fully stocked kitchen was perfect for cooking our own meals. Great location and close to Park Rapids with grocery stores and gas. Enjoyed the wildlife and peaceful setting.
Yes, this is the 3rd time we have stayed at this house in the summer. Relaxing, quiet and lots of wildlife. Always a great time. Everything we needed was there.
We had a great time at the cabin, with great weather. Headed into Park Rapids one day, neat little brewery and restaurant with delicious food! Excited to see the cabin again next year, with a finished basement!
Great place on a lovely lake. Able to sit on the deck and listen to loons calling. Home was clean with just the right amount of amenities. 40 min away from Itasca State Park made it very convenient.
We had a relaxing, fun stay at this quiet, comfortable cabin. It has a good view of the lake and the large kitchen island was great. Newer appliances & a wonderful air conditioning unit. The lower level was being remodeled so we did not use that space. Would stay here again.
Very nice cabin on a smaller lake and quiet lake. Good panfish fishing, especially for crappies in the morning and evening. Lots of loons, eagles, and other wildlife. Two fawns in the yard during our stay.
My husband and I had an amazing time here. We even managed to get our small 14” boat tied in the dock and did some fishing throughout the week! The cabin was quiet, clean, and we were very appreciative of the AC and washer/dryer! Hope to come back next year. 10/10
Love how quiet and private this spot is, beautiful property with a lake view! The house is really nice, love the openness of the kitchen and living room. Love the back patio to sit on and see all the wildlife. Only “negative” was our check in time was 4pm and didn’t get a message with check in info until 4:30pm, but that didn’t effect our plans at all.
Overall are stay was amazing. The outside was mowed but lots of cobwebs and the front of the house wasn’t advertise and the toilet handle stopped working. Overall it was very affordable and worked great for what we needed!

Everything was great! Wish the dock would be longer.
This is the 2nd time we have stayed here. The last time was about 2 years ago. The owners added a better summer heating & cooling unit. Normally you would think we would have needed the air conditioning, but needed the heat instead. Really enjoyed our stay and will come here again.
Wonderfully remodeled inside. Very clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was there.
Outside has great views of the lake, set in a wonderful forest full of wildlife. Very private and quiet. Loons, ducks, bald eagles, deer and wild turkeys.

Disliked: Cleanliness
There is a lot of room for improvement but we will find someplace else if we decide the visit again. The cleaners could focus more on the details and written instructions would be helpful for proper use of the appliances and furnace. It was in the low 40s and windy so the place had a chill to it.
The place is cozy and close to our hunting ground, however, there are more deer around this property!
The WiFi isn’t great, but everything else is great and as described.
