About this property
Peaceful Lakeview Cabin
Welcome to this beautiful country cabin, the perfect retreat for those looking to unplug and enjoy nature. The cabin features a convenient staircase leading down to the lower level, granting easy access to the water for fishing and free use of the rowboat, kayaks, and canoe—life jackets included for your safety and peace of mind.
Inside, the cabin comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests, with a master bedroom, a spacious loft with hardwood floors, and plenty of additional space for sleeping bags on the floor or deck. The bathroom is well-appointed with a tile shower and a relaxing jetted tub. The kitchen includes newer appliances, a washer and dryer, and the cooking and dining essentials you’ll need to feel right at home.
Enjoy all the basics for a comfortable stay—kitchen utensils, linens, and towels are provided. Outside, you’ll find a fire pit, LP grill, picnic table, plenty of space to roam, and walking paths to explore. Guests have free access to kayaks, a canoe, and a rowboat (life jackets included). Fishing is catch and release only, and swimming in the lake is not allowed due to insurance restrictions.
This is a rural getaway, so expect some local wildlife, bugs, and gravel roads—it’s all part of the charm. Please note: self-check-in is optional, and guests may be prepared to enjoy their stay without host assistance.
If you're looking for a fun, unique place to unplug and unwind—this is it.
*** The cabin is located near a small campground where you might see a few campers, mostly on weekends. If you have friends with RVs or campers, feel free to invite them to join you!
Guests are welcome to enjoy the kayaks and rowboat provided, along with life jackets for safety. Please note: swimming in the lake is not allowed due to insurance restrictions. Fishing is catch-and-release only, and we ask that you use artificial bait to help protect the fish during release.
There’s a $25 pet fee per stay.
To make your stay more comfortable, don’t forget to bring any personal items you might want—like an extra blanket or your favorite pillow. I don’t provide heavy blankets by default since I can’t launder them between every guest, but I’m happy to offer them upon request.
***
This is a self-check-in rental and is located on a gravel road, 2 miles from Wadena. Expect a rural setting with occasional wildlife or insects. If something doesn’t meet your expectations, I’d love the chance to make it right. Please reach out directly before leaving a review so we can work to resolve it.
