Had a great time this weekend at this cabin.

For travelers inquiring: The inside of cabin itself was not much to write home about, it was your basic rustic cabin. It was well kept enough for something of the sort (the furniture, bed, linens, refrigerator, shower, toilet sink and counter tops were all clean but it could use a good window clean and cobweb sweep.)

There was a bit of a musty smell to the cabin (like most cabins like this have from being closed up for a while) when we first got there but after we opened up the windows we didn't notice it anymore. The decor was busy. Advertising signs and other trinkets lined the entire ceiling and wall. There is also a wall in the front covered with all kinds of animal heads and skins...not sure if they were real or not, but to me it was a bit disturbing but I assume the hunting type would like it.

Inside the cabin is very stocked. Tons of pots and pans, cubs, silverware, plates, cups, toaster, coffee maker and much more. It really did have everything you could possibly need. We brought a lot we didn't need to.

While the inside is nothing to write home about, the outside is what really makes this place special. The house is on top of a hill looking over the property and has a huge deck that wraps around the side to the back. It overlooks the entire property and it's gorgeous. The outside pictures he has really doesn't do it justice. We spent all our waking hours at the property outside, woke up and had coffee and breakfast on the deck listening to the river and watching the cows graze and the occasional local fly fisher fishing in the river and then spent the night out by the fire stargazing (the stargazing does not disappoint on a clear night.) There was plenty of wood for burning, a variety of different outdoor seating and a bench a table great for meals. There were also an awesome tree swing on the property that my husband and I took full advantage of. The outdoor setting of this property is really what makes it. It was perfect.

Location is good. It is about 35 min from Winona, 25 min to Lanesboro and about 15-20 min to Whitewater State Park. We hit up all 3 and enjoyed Whitewater the most. Good hiking and great sites. Winona is also gorgeous and has some good eats. Lanseboro we just drove through, cute town. There are also a couple little towns closer if you need to run and get something but the drive was easy and scenic to all the above places.

Overall, we loved our stay. <3
