About the host
Hosted by McKinnon Baxter
Hello! We are the Baxters! A family of three; my wife, me, and our adventurous son Finn! We love our special cabin on the lake, "a little slice of heaven" we like to call it ;) As for me, I was raised on a farm in upstate NY, then spent a number of years in Southern CA. My desire to get back to nature led me to Montana where I have now lived for the better part of 25 years. As an online retailer, my family and I are able to spend a good part of the year at The Cabin on Placid Lake as well our other favorite getaways, one being Japan, where my wife was born and raised. At the cabin, my son and I enjoy fishing for salmon, trout, bass and of course the ever-so-fun-to-catch, bluegills! If you want the lowdown on how and where, for our renters only, we will share our secrets!
Why they chose this property
if you have seen your share of lake properties, you probably know that the cabin is one thing, but the property is quite another. As much as I love the charm and coziness of our nearly 100-year old cabin, what I like the most is the land where it sits. With perhaps 100 or so towering pine trees surrounding the cabin, we love walking what we humbly call our own, personal forest on the 1 acre + piece of land with 140 feet of lake frontage. Depending on the time of year and the water level, we enjoy sitting on our private beach as the water laps along the shore. If you want to extend your views, walk down our 60 foot long dock to a nice sized 12x12 square at the end, truly the perfect spot for taking in some of the best sunsets we've ever seen. Recently, we added a lush, green lawn, along with a sprinkler system for family barefoot fun playing games while the sunlight off the lake dazzles in the background. At night, there's nothing better than lighting a fire in the fire pit and sitting around it cooking hot dogs on skewers or, for the grand finale, SMORES!
If you need to break way to get some work down, the Office Study is the perfect place. Quiet, air-conditioned, peaceful. Not a bad place for an afternoon nap either! The views from the study equal or may even be better than what you'll find inside the cabin, but both are certainly hard to beat.
If you are renting in the winter, all I can say is get ready to relax. The constant snowfall at Placid Lake makes for an idyllic experience, warm and toasty in the tightly insulated cabin. Enjoy not one, but two fireplaces inside. Time to get the jammies and slippers out, grab your favorite cup of coffee or hot chocolate, and sink into the best side of peace and quiet. Want to take in the elements a bit more? How about building a snowman or having a snowball fight, or cross country skiing on the frozen lake? Whatever your choice, remember to hot tub in our Hot Springs Spa after!
