This modern luxury cabin in the woods is tucked away on 13 private acres of secluded riverfront a little over an hour east of the Twin Cities. Styled with mid-century furniture, a modern well equipped kitchen, a bath with a hot tub for one, heated stone floors, as well as wifi, blu-ray, and bluetooth connectivity to the stereo, this 2 bedroom gem has everything an urban dweller (and their kids!) need to relax, create, heal and come back feeling great!
Large windows immerse you and your loved ones in the wild forest all around you, as you live alongside beaver, eagle, heron, and deer. Two cozy queen sized beds, plump with featherbeds, one in the loft overlooking the river and the starry sky, the fresh air, and the peaceful silence mean you will sleep deeply and restore.
Spend the day lazily canoeing down the river past sandstone bluffs with bald eagles and return to cook and eat a gourmet meal, with a fire in the wood stove while the setting sun glistens on the river beyond. Or bring your laptop to the hammock next to the house and drift off to sleep after a productive and inspired few hours. Watch as the kids fish off the private dock, or explore the the forest and freshwater creek. Enjoy the songs of hundreds of birds in the forest, and the cooling breeze off the river out your front door.
Relax in a beautiful bath with a Jacuzzi after a long day in the sun.When the day is done, slip between the feather beds and the down quilts in the loft overlooking the river and the starry sky.
This is a quiet space, perfect for creative retreats or meditation, pal weekends, or a romantic few days together. Wifi is solid, there is bluetooth for your Spotify library on the Midcentury speakers, and a BluRay player for your movies on the TV.
This is also a perfect place for young children to experience the natural world with their parents. There are family board games and classic children's toys for slowing down as a family in the evening or on rainy days. The large yard is perfect for smaller daytime weddings that do not extend past 10 pm, or 11 pm on weekends. The cabin is, of course, perfect for the bride and groom.
This spring, in addition to a family friendly canoe, we have two kayaks for discovering the natural world of this forested river and gliding silently past wildlife of all kinds that make their homes on either side and above you. If you portage, the Hay River going south from the dam in Prairie Farm is an undiscovered gem, and will take you on a day long voyage from one accessible pick up to the next. Bring any favorite outdoor games for playing on the riverside yard. Confirmed guests can view an extensive list of nearby parks for activities like biking, hiking, and a list of restaurants if you chose to leave the cabin.
