Comfort and convenience

We had a nice stay at the Campfire Lodge. It had everything we needed for our stay. We felt comfortable and cozy all weekend and enjoyed the hot tub while watching the snow fall. Very close to the slopes and no issues arose with the property.

Great Stay at Big Powderhorn

Very happy with our stay. The unit is well cared for and maintained. The living room, dinning room, and kitchen are very spacious. Having access to two full-size bathrooms with washer and dryer was a huge plus. Easy access to skiing at Big Powderhorn. We look forward to many return trips.

Comfortable A-Frame near Big Powderhorn

We enjoyed our 3 day stay at this A-Frame cabin located less than a mile from Big Powderhorn. Check in was simple. Everything worked. Some of the kitchen items (pots, skillets, utensils, silverware, glassware) could be improved but overall a great stay!

Wonderful winter getaway

Our group of 4 adults and 4 kids had a wonderful stay. We went to snowmobile during spring break and were able to ride directly from the lodge. The sauna was great after a long, cold day of riding. I asked questions prior and was answered promptly. The description was spot on. We were very pleased with our stay! Thank you!

Skiing in sweatshirts!

Came up to the UP for a weekend ski trip and this year despite the lack of snow had a good day of skiing at Snow River in sweatshirts! The campfire Lodge was perfect for our family of 6. The bedrooms are close together upstairs, which is fine for a family and great to have two bathrooms. The kitchen is very nice and the dining area was great for playing cards. Loved having a large sectional so we could all laugh about our day. We will definitely come back. Location is perfect at Powderhorn Village. Communication with Shawn was amazing. He responded twice to two of my questions, and very easy to deal with. five stars for him.

UPERS

We had a very nice time staying in the A Frame on Powderhorn Mountain. A couple of things to mention though, the hot tub had sand in the bottom, there was a broken oscillating fan in the upstairs bedroom, the outside garbage can was completely full upon arrival so we had no where to put our garbage. I know you asked us to place our garbage outside in the can, but it was completely full. Otherwise, had a lovely time. Close to town, Black River Harbor, Little Girls Point. Thanks

Not what we expected

This is a very small rental and definitely not 3 bedrooms. The beds were ok, however the (extra) blankets were full of dust. The windows would not open. There was no activity field. There was no wood for a fire or fire starting utensils. The dishes were not clean. This was not a 5 star rental; which is what they asked people to give in the check out instructions. The only thing that saved this rental was the comfortable couch and chair in the living room, the hot tub, and sauna. If cleanliness or quality is what your looking for I would stay away from this rental.

Perfect Getaway

Our trip idea was to be somewhere quiet, peaceful and comfortable as we're a bit too old for tents. Shawn's place was perfect. Beds comfortable. Plenty of amenities. Also only a short jaunt off of the main roads. We visited from Maple Grove, MN on a motorcycle trip (880 miles). Beautiful area. We branched out a different direction every day. Plenty to see and visit then came back to the vrbo for a nice hot tub soak in the evening. Thank you Shawn for the wonderful 5 day stay! I will be recommending to friends and family.

Great Yooper Stay for The Forchuly!

Our family has been going to this area for 18 years. Normally we stay with family. This time, we decided to get a place since we brought our sons (18) girlfriend (19) and my daughter (16) brought one of her friends. Still found time to enjoy time with the family and to have our quiet and cozy A-Frame+ chalet which had plenty of room, two bathrooms, big living area and great kitchen space. Hot tub on porch, sauna (infrared), in main bedroom. They even had a dishwasher and laundry. Coffee maker, full dishes. Really don’t need to bring much other than food and cold beverages. They stocked games and a huge l-shaped couch, with big TV. Good parking area at end of road. Just perfect and we anticipate getting this place again when we head back. Final thought, easy access to check in and check out. Host responded when we reached out, but was otherwise like it was our own place. :-)

About the host

Hosted by Shawn Murphy

Host profile image
Avid outdoorsman and lover of all things Northwoods. I grew up in the Twin Cities and spent 10 years in the US military serving in both Korea and Afghanistan. I enjoy creating an “up north” experience for guests and recognize the importance of providing the best possible experience we can at a fair price. While it can be stressful managing the properties from so far away, I am complimented by a wonderful local housekeeper, Amanda, who helps out anyway she can.

Why they chose this property

A-Frame lodges are iconic northwoods structures. If you are looking for a true authentic northwoods experience, whether is be for skiing or hiking or whatever outdoor experience you have in mind, why not choose our place. We are one of the only gas ranges (for cooking) in the Powder Village area and one of the few remaining outdoor hot tubs around. Combine that with a recent remodel project, you have a great experience.

What makes this property unique

- A Frame Lodge
- Infrared Sauna
- Good wifi
- Seasonal Outdoor Campfire Ring
- Well appointed kitchen with gas range.
- Beautiful orgininal art work throughout property.

All of my properties have the following on the wall - maybe you can spot them: A deer bottle Opener, a crossed pair of snowshoes, something antique/about the area
