Our stay was lovely! Our host and staff were friendly, communicative and responsive. The grounds were well kept. Our dog loved sleeping in the sun on our deck. The area is beautiful. We were there just as the leaves were beginning to change. The lake was like glass, reflecting everything perfectly. We definitely will stay again!!!

Quick getaway

The cabin had everything we needed for a couple nights’ visit. I would have preferred blinds on the rear windows and the AC to be turned on prior to arrival. It was very hot when we arrived and it took a while to cool it down. But overall, it was clean and just what we needed/expected from this cute tiny cabin!

Why they chose this property

This cabin is located in South Haven, MN and just 7 min drive to the charming town Annandale which offers a variety of activities:

Hiking and Nature Trails: Explore the natural beauty of the area by hiking on nearby trails. Consider visiting parks like Pleasant Lake Park or Collinwood Regional Park for outdoor adventures.

Golfing: If you enjoy golf, consider playing a round at Southbrook Golf & Country Club or Whispering Pines Golf Course.

Local Events: There are plenty of community events, festivals, and fairs during the summer that can offer entertainment and a chance to connect with the community. Every Saturday morning, don't miss the largest flea market in Minnesota just a mile down the road. Upon arrival, you will find the local magazine left at your cabin with details to the summer calendar.

Dining and Shopping: Explore the local dining scene on the lake or nearby towns and shops in Annandale. Discover unique eateries, cafes, brewery and boutiques for a taste of the local culture.

Visit Nearby Towns: Discover Fairhaven Farm a beautiful apple orchard located 7min away and explore nearby towns and their attractions. Whether it's historical sites, museums, or charming downtown areas, there's often something new to discover.

What makes this property unique

Upon your arrival at Lake Augusta Cabins you will find a dirt road with a steep down hill ahead. No worries, there is plenty of parking at the bottom of the hill.

Feel free to bring your water crafts to explore the lakes. We recommend leaving your boat trailer at the top of the road before the gate. Depending on the size of the boat and how busy the parking area may, turning around with a trailer could be limited.

Boat launch is only a mile away on Clearwater Lake. Use nearby channel to get to Lake Augusta. Boats with tall rigid designs should be mindful of water levels as you will need to go under a bridge. Most fishing boats, pontoons and speed boat with adjustable Bimini's go through with ease.

There is a Marina and bait shops close by where you will be able to get all the essentials.
