About this property

•We are a safe place for BIPOC/LGBTQIA+ folks to enjoy the prairie•

A quintessential, little, rustic cabin on the prairie bluffs of the Minnesota river is what we have to offer. Located on the edge of the Lac Qui Parle hunting refuge, and minutes from the Lac Qui Parle Lake State Park, this small cabin has HUGE potential! It is set up similar to the rental/camper cabins that are available at many of Minnesota's state parks. So if you're more into camping and the outdoors, and less into hotel travel, this is right up your alley! This 600 sq. ft. cabin has electricity, heat, air conditioning, and an outdoor water spigot, outdoor shower, and a separate toilet room equipped with composting toilet (port-a-potty also available). The kitchenette includes a fridge, microwave, and electric stove top with 3 burners. One bedroom with additional sleeping space in loft area. Outdoor patio fire pit and benches face west overlooking the Minnesota river valley and some spectacular sun sets!
Located near the Lac Qui Parle Wildlife Managment Area, the Lac Qui Parle Lake and state park, there is plenty to do and see for the outdoors seeker. Or stay in and enjoy the peace and quiet of a rural Minnesota gem of a cabin.
The cabin built by hand by the owner. All wood was locally sourced or reclaimed. Taking the better part of four years to build and get ready.

One owner does reside on the property with a large dog, Shadow, and a couple cats; the cats roam the property freely, but Shadow does not roam freely during rentals. The cabin is separated from the house by a grove.

unexpected

We didn't read the information closely enough. No running water and no shower to say of was inconvenient. We could have managed both of these but there was not a comfortable chair or two to sit in to just relax. We cut our stay short.

Wonderful getaway

We had a great time staying at the cabin. Everything was just as described. The cabin itself was better than described with many neat craftsmanship touches. It was the perfect size for our family of four.

Beautiful and Peaceful!

Loved getting out to the prairie and enjoying the peace and quiet! The location was perfect and so close to the state park - super easy for day hikes! Can't wait to return in the future!
