Peaceful
Hosts were amazing to work with and responded to any questions we had about the property or things to do in the area. The house is adorable and we enjoyed playing games and fishing in the downtime after spending our days at the High School Rodeo. Hoping we can stay again next time we are in town!!

If you’re looking for a clean, quiet, VERY well stocked with amenities (indoor & outdoor) place to get a little R&R, this is the place to go! Extra towels, games, books, hide a bed soda, plenty of dishes, extra spices, full size fridge, firewood for fire ring or a smokeless fire pit if that’s your jam. Communication with owners was fantastic! The bathroom is quite snug but the toilet flushed & there is hot water! We also utilized the bunk house & appreciated the extra space that it provided. We will likely book again & if you do, you won’t regret it!

Great place for a fall getaway up north!
Just got back from a 3 day stay at this cute little cabin up north... It was fantastic for my family of 3 plus a dog for a long, relaxing, and fun MEA weekend. My 5 year old son loved the bunk beds, the place was set up for everything we needed, and the host was great with pre-arrival communication. Would definitely come back again!

Great location and lots of fun!
We enjoyed our stay here. It was around an hour to Itasca state park and about 30 minutes to Walker. We went to Longville on Wednesday for turtle racing and had a blast. We enjoyed hearing loons calling while we watched the sunrise over the lake. The only issue we had was a neighbor by the boat launch yelled at us because our kids were throwing rocks in the lake.

Moondance Weekend
This was a wonderful, clean, cutely decorated cabin to rent. We had four adults and there was room for all of us. The lake has a lot of vegetation and there are no jet skis allowed but it’s very quiet and peaceful.

Thought of everything…….
My family and I have just returned from an awesome weekend at this cabin. As soon as we pulled into and drove down the dirt road to the cabin we were taken in by the beauty and peacefulness of the lake, the trees and the green lawns. Upon entering the cabin, we noticed it was so clean, fully stocked and a fun brightly colored layout. Just the right size for my family of 4 adults and 2 young ones. All we really needed to bring was food and drink. Fun times were had by riding on the cool 2 seater vintage pontoon paddle boat, taking a dip on the beach just a short walk down, playing the many yard games on the open lawn while the pups watched and played, playing cards on the beautiful deck (furnished with newer no maintenance furniture) while looking at the sunset and a nice fire burning near by. We will most definitely be looking into coming back ! 5 stars!
