Family Vacation

We had a fun family vacation. Our granddaughter thought it was cool that she could kayak with us on the kids kayak that was available to use. We all enjoyed fishing on the pontoon available to rent. We had good weather and the fish were biting. It was nice get away with our family. Shannon was always available if we had any questions. Thanks for a fun family getaway.

Excellent trip

This was our second time at the cabin, and have enjoyed both trips. The last trip was 5 years ago and when we asked our girls where we should take our summer trip, they wanted to come back. Between the paddle boat, kayak, hanging out in the boat house, pontoon, and just enjoying the lake; everyone had a great time. Neighbors were friendly and we caught some fish off the dock. Shannon was very responsive if we had any questions and made sure we were happy with our stay.

Fun time at rustic cabin

This is a really fun place to stay if you like a rustic time on the lake. The cabin is very well kept and stocked. We love being able to use the pontoon to cruise around the lake. The lake is very nice for boating and swimming. The firepit is close to the water and is one of the premiers of staying at this cabin. This is perfect for a small family. The check in and check out process was flawless.

Little get away

Very nice place to stay. Rustic with a view. Had some small upgrades that need to be looked at. The pontoon is nice to take a trip around the lake and fish from. The engine needs a tune up to make it run better. I would stay there again if i am back in this area again.

Authentic Lake Cabin

It's a wonderful place that shows off the beauty that the builders saw when they decided to build there with all the comforts of home. Large screen TV, full kitchen and a large, for a cabin, hot water heater! Warm showers! Hot coffee looking out the lakeside window in the morning watching the mist clear off the lake was perfect. Great times!

Back to MN!

I grew up coming to my grandparents cabin on Upper Cormorant, so I was thrilled to be able to stay in a cabin on this lake. Use of the pontoon was fabulous, and we used it to visit my family across the lake. The cabin was stocked with everything we needed and worked great for our 3 days on the lake. Just to note, the "bedrooms" downstairs are not fully enclosed. The walls are ~6 feet tall. This was not an issue for us, but you can see down into the rooms while climbing the ladders to the loft, and you can hear everything.

Family friendly fun

This was our 2nd time staying. We love the location as it's not a busy area. Great fishing. Lake was too cold for swimming this time but we enjoyed many pontoon rides. We overpacked as the cabin has most of the things you need! Easy communication with owner. Definitely recommend.

Visiting Family

We booked this property to visit some family in the area over the holiday. My kids loved the lofts and had the time of their lives on the kayak, fishing from the pontoon, soaking up the sun, and making smores. Renters should be aware that the two bedrooms on the main floor do not have ceilings and can be viewed from the lofts. Not a problem for our family but it could be an issue for those who need more privacy. Overall, we loved our stay and it brought back wonderful memories of my childhood experiences growing up in the area. Thanks Shannon, you were a great host!

Week at the Lake

While the cabin is rustic - and it’s a cabin - the fishing was great. Caught some great fish off the dock. While the pontoon wasn’t working, the property owner rented us a pontoon from the neighboring resort for our use. We are familiar with the area so enjoyed golfing and shopping in Perham and Detroit Lakes.

Comfortable cabin on the lake

My family enjoyed staying at Michael's place this summer, from being right on the water with a dock and a boat to the cute cabin with plenty of space for us to play games and hang out. Michael was super responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. We hope to be back!

Family getaway

Mike was an excellent host. Check in and check out were seamless. Cabin was rustic and just felt like a cabin. The pontoon was a very added bonus. Kids loved being able to fish and cruise. The beds were comfortable and added tv with Disney+ and YouTube tv kept the kids content when not outside. Overall our stay was very relaxing and we all had a fun time. Will definitely come back next year !

Good spot for a little family vacation

We brought our 3yr old & 6 yr old here for the week. Great location, nice little beach area & firepit area that they've made. The cabin has pretty much all of the amenities needed including wifi/TV which was reassuring if it was needed for a rain day. The owner is very quick to respond if we had questions. We did have issues with the pontoon which was disappointing but it happens. One thing I would advise bringing for future renters, comfy patio chairs!

Perfect family getaway

We loved our stay! Mike was easy to get ahold of, prompt in helping (ran a new ladder out for boat & more propane for the grill)! The house was small, but perfect as we only came inside to eat & sleep! Beautiful location! Pontoon use was a bonus!!

About the host

Hosted by Shannon Olson

Hello! My name is Shannon Olson. Currently I live in Hawley, MN with my two teenage children. I teach Family and Consumer Science at Hawley High School, and I coach volleyball in the fall. I stay busy throughout the school year with work, attending school athletic events, and cheering my kids on at their activities. During the summer, I love spending time in the lakes area, running, taking care of my yard, reading, and playing volleyball.
I love being a host because it's so fun to share this cabin with others and hear about the memories they make at my place.

Why they chose this property

This property is a True Minnesota Lake Cabin. Great rustic feel with some modern benefits. The acreage of fishable water is amazing.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is the perfect place to relax and unplug. Kids love the lofts and all the extra games and toys available. Outside, there is a nice yard, firepit, and boathouse. The boathouse is stocked with water toys, firewood, roasting sticks, a bar, extra fishing rods, a fish cleaning station, and even a Smart TV! A pontoon is also available for additional rental.
If you want to venture out, there are some fun things to explore. By boat or by foot, you can reach The End of the Road Resort. They sell bait, treats and are a great resource to have nearby. You can also reach Middle Cormorant lake by boat. They have a great swimming beach, as well as "Sauce'd" bar and grill.
