Great family vacation spot!

We had 2 families stay very comfortably. It was nice to have 2 living spaces to hang out in and plenty of room for the kids and adults. The cabin is stocked with all the essentials. The pool, lake and courts are close by. Overall, we would highly recommend this spot for a relaxing weekend.

Lovely winter stay

We had two families with young children stay here and it was absolutely perfect. We had enough space to spread out. Well stocked kitchen. Close to the down hill and cross country ski areas in addition to a great sledding hill in the backyard and the frozen lake for winter adventures. Would absolutely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Abby Erickson

Host profile image
I grew up going to a family cabin my whole life and I think the memories that are created at the lake are priceless and some of the best things that life has to offer.
I have been married to Ben for 15 years and we have three lovely kids. We love the outdoors and laid back life at the lake.

Why they chose this property

There aren't many places in MN that offer the year round fun that Giants Ridge and the iron range has to offer. You are minutes from three of the top golf courses the state has to offer. You can ski, tube, snowmobile, and hike in the winter; swim, fish, paddle board, and boat in the summer, and golf most of the year surrounded by the beauty and wildlife of the north woods.
