About this property

Escape to a Northwoods Cabin with private island!

A comfy & cozy retreat in the Northwoods of Minnesota awaits you and yours for a quiet space to relax and enjoy the designed indoor & outdoor spaces. A small rural town with simple amenities is a half mile away or larger cities just 20+ miles away with outdoor activities galore. We have several State Parks nearby so perfect for hiking with your dogs. Our 80-foot bridge to a private island on a pond is a perfect setting to read a book or play cards with some friends. Our unique custom speakeasy basement bar and surrounding intimate spaces will keep you at ease.

Our space is private and nestled among towering pine trees on a private pond with an accessible island via a covered custom bridge. We are gardeners so have built seasonal flower gardens and Japanese style gardens over the years. We love sharing our little piece of heaven to others. Each season has something special to share. Our home has been fully remodeled for guests to enjoy. We have ample safe space for your furry babies to roam and explore too!

Guests have access to:
Beautiful grounds with plenty of space to roam
Perfect star gazing and if you’re lucky, you’ll see the Northern Lights
Indoor wood fireplace for cozy nights
Seasonal outdoor wood sauna. If want to use the outdoor sauna, there is an extra $100 charge which includes prep and firewood. We can chat more in detail if you want to use it!
Indoor electric sauna (can pour water for steam!)
Private Bridge over pond to an Island House with small living room setting.
Two-car garage (good for snowmobilers and 4-wheelers too!)

Other things to note:
We have an indoor electric sauna and an outdoor wood sauna. Perfect for relaxation! The outdoor wood sauna has an extra fee as it entails set up and firewood.

If use of the indoor fireplace is wanted, we have Duraflame logs for a small fee and provide instructions.

Outdoor sauna is not allowed in winter due to potential for running water to freeze.

Brand new bridge! Escape to the island house to watch ducks or listen to the frogs.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
