We had such a great stay!!!!! The Cabin is perfect - just the right amount of space for 2 people! Very clean, yet still feels like a cabin. Great little electric fireplace for those cool mornings, and windows to open on all sides to let the breeze flow through. There is AC, but we didn't need it. The kitchen is stocked with everything needed, and the bathroom, though small, has great shower pressure and plenty of hot water! The outdoor area is well kept, lush with foliage and old trees that whisper stories. There are plenty of chairs and campfire pits provided. The whole place is very quiet and relaxing -just what we were looking for. We took the provided canoe out twice - even took it through the channel to Clearwater Lake on a beautiful calm morning. If you are traveling as a couple, or a family with teenagers, I give this place a million stars! If you are traveling with small children and swimming in the lake is on the list, keep in mind that this is a typical Minnesotan lake with lots of weeds. It is beautiful and serene, but perhaps not ideal for little kids who want to splash around in 3 feet of water. Fish off the dock? Yes! Float on a tube? Yes! Swim? Only if wading through the weeds is something you are used to. We never talked to the hosts. We saw them once helping someone with the pontoon boat, but our check in was smooth and contact-less and we had no need to call on them for anything. The parking situation is convenient.
