Rare Opportunity to Stay in this Area

The entire process of booking and communicating with the host was so easy and pleasant. We needed a place to stay in the area for a family wedding, and we lucked out to find this house. It was clean; was well-stocked with amenities, toys, and basic pantry items; had plenty of space/beds; and was in a great location for our needs. The kids wished we could have stayed longer!

Red Lake Opener

We had a great time at your lodge! Fishing was great and we had a great time having fires and yard games after. Hopefully there will be a private access that is useable for larger boats soon so we don’t have to drive down gravel roads all the way to Rogers. Great trip!

Why they chose this property

My father and I purchased this beautifully wooded 40-acre piece which sits right down the road from Upper Red Lake in 2005. Not only did we see it as an investment, but also as a place to stay after a long day of chasing the famous Upper Red Lake Crappies. The 40 acres was raw land and has only been logged off. We started off using an old camper but soon found out how much we really enjoyed going up to the quietness of “the land” and have no intention of selling this property. After years of cutting new trails and excavating the land, we started to dream about building a cabin. We spent a few years acquiring building materials hoping to one day build a cabin that would be comfortable and something our wives and children would want to come to. July 2013 we broke ground and in August we poured the cement 24X40. The cement would lay until March 2015 when the cabin shell was built. The cabin shell (walls, roof, windows, siding, framing inside) was put up in 6 days! It wasn't until April 2017 that we finally finished all the interior work. Lots of weekends were spent away from our families as we would go up north and try to get as much done as possible and then come right back home and get back to our "normal jobs". It has proved to be well worth it. Our family loves our weekends away to this secluded cabin hidden away from the busy world.
