We had a great stay at your amazing cabin. The view was beautiful and we had the best time swimming and spending time with family. Perfect location and the cabin size was great for our family.
This place was amazing and perfect for our ladies crafting weekend! There was so much space and comfortable furniture. There was a large table all 7 of us could eat and puzzle at, well stocked kitchen, spacious bedrooms. We also had someone on a knee scooter and the entire main floor was handicap accessible and she easily got around. Beds were comfortable, the roads were empty making going for a walk easy and safe. Plenty of parking. We went in the winter and didn’t get to enjoy all the outdoor spaces which were so cool!
My in-laws and I loved this property! It was clean, spacious, comfortable, well-stocked (kitchen supplies, games, etc.), and in a beautiful location on a gorgeous clear lake. Would highly recommend the this spot to anyone considering. We'll definitely be back!
We absolutely loved the amazing home and lake setting. So many amenities and so much beautiful gathering space. It was a delightful vacation. Hope to be able to come back again.
Our family stayed there while in town for a wedding and it was lovely! The trees were just beginning to change and we had a great view os the lake. The house was very clean and the checkin process was so simple. The manager was very helpful and friendly as well. We would definitely stay here again!
Spacious home with great lake views! We loved the screened porch, as well as family meals and cards at the big table. The lake front was delightful, with swimming, boat rides, and teaching the dogs to swim in a lake. Thank you for sharing your home with our family, including our dogs.
The house had everything we needed for a memorable family vacation. The screen porch was great for enjoying the weather bug free. The large concrete pad in front of the garage perfect for our pickle ball net. Plenty of space to spread out, everything we needed to cook our meals. Fishing from the dock was excellent.Only thing missing was an electrical hook up down by the dock. Great house with an even better view. Clean, clear water.
This was our family’s second year staying at Pigeon Ridge and we had the absolute best time. Not only is Trisha a lovely host, but the home is well appointed, cozy and situated with a beautiful view of the lake. The colors this year were so vibrant, so we enjoyed leisurely walks along the country roads. We also enjoyed sitting around the fire at night and fishing off the dock during the day. A truly wonderful stay for a nice long weekend. Thank you!
We enjoyed our stay at Trisha’s large, comfortable cabin! The kitchen had almost everything you could need to prepare your meals. We weren’t able to find a crockpot but it had everything else!
Everything was well marked and noted in the binder. Nice and private at the end of the road. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely stay again!!!
5 friends from middle school gathered at this beautiful lakeside property for some bonding, lounging, laughing and eating!We were welcomed by the beautiful high ceiling and windows that faced the lake. All of our rooms were comfortable, cozy and we all slept like champions. We enjoyed lots of lounging time in the main room around the fireplace. We enjoyed meals around the huge dining room table and had plenty of room to gather in the kitchen as we all cooked and cleaned!We all really enjoyed spending our time together in your wonderful home on Lake Sylvia!
We wanted a place away from the bustle of the cities and one that could accommodate nine family members and two dogs. This cabin was phenomenal - with beautiful views of the lake, privacy, and a lot of outdoor space. The cabin allowed for a variety of activities from the solitude of sitting on the porch and reading a book to outdoor games, and a family puzzle around the large dining table. The host had just the right balance of communication, and we felt very welcome at the cabin.
It was our annual girls weekend, and this cabin did not disappoint! It could accommodate us all, with so many spaces that you didn't feel cooped up. Many of us enjoyed the screened in porch for coffee and late night chats.
The water is very clean. The little set up by the lake was great for those that didn't want to be in the sun too much. The trek up and down those stairs was tough for some, and when it rains it gets very slippery with all the mud.
Overall, a great stay that will definitely happen again!
We stay on Lake Sylvia every summer, but this is our first time at this location. The home is absolutely beautiful, and was perfect for our larger than usual group. It’s location on East Lake is fantastic, and the dock is wonderful. We had no problems keeping our boat secure during our stay. The kitchen is very well stocked with any kind of pan or utensil you may need. There is even a waffle maker! There are many games to play during quiet moments, and the screened in porch is absolutely fantastic if you want to enjoy the evening air mosquito free. We cannot wait to come back!
Our multigenerational family included nine adults, and one child and a dog. It was set up for us to have a relaxing and joyful weekend.
Tricia’s home included integrating spaces for adults and children to interact. There was a coloring table, books, and many toys. Felt like home right when you walked in the door.

About the host
Hosted by Trisha Johnson
Hello - Welcome to our family cabin. This piece of land has been in my husband's family for over 5 generations! The current cabin/house was built in 2001 so it could be utilized all season long. All of us love to come to the lake to relax and unwind from daily life and it is our hope that this place brings you relaxation as well. I am a high school teacher from southern Minnesota. I will try to get back to regarding questions as soon as I can - usually on my lunch break or after school.
