Great northwoods retreat for vacationers, fishermen, and snowmobilers.
“Twin Pines” is a perfect destination for vacationers who seek beautiful northwoods surroundings to “get away from it all” any time of year. Winter activities include snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, ice fishing, snow-shoeing or just relaxing in the quiet, majestic pines. Spring and summer activities include fishing at nearby lakes or rivers, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, riding ATV, golfing at nearby golf courses in Bigfork or Deer River, or just enjoying a beverage around the fire or on the deck.
For your convenience, there is a lockbox on the entry door on the back deck. We will provide you with a temporary code shortly before your stay which we will send via text.
The house is clean, newly remodeled, and nestled in the heart of the Chippewa National Forest. It is built on the site of a “turn of the century logging camp” (Camp Five). The property is on a gravel road – just 1 ½ miles off a paved road, Hwy 14, and just two miles from the Bigfork River. There are thousands of acres of adjoining state and federal land with countless trails and very few neighbors. The circle driveway makes it easy for people to load and unload snowmobiles or ATVs. We are pet-friendly with a limit of two well-behaved dogs for a small fee.
The house sleeps from 4 to 12 people. On the main floor there is a kitchen (complete with all the necessary utensils and dinnerware), dining/family room, large master bedroom with a queen-size bed, small bedroom with double bed, and a three-season porch with a “trundle” bed that sleeps two. There are also two bathrooms on the main floor – one with a bathtub, and one with a shower. Our home also includes a large open upstairs space with two double beds and three twin beds, and plenty of storage space downstairs to store any extra items, air-dry wet clothes from a day out snowmobiling, etc.
Twin pines is fully furnished with all the necessities you will need to enjoy your northwoods vacation including a full kitchen set, outdoor grill, flat screen tv and dvd player, dvd’s, board games, Air Hockey Table, and a large book collection. There is also a campfire pit out back for roasting hot dogs and marshmallows.
The house is available for rent by the weekend or weekly from December to August, and during a few select weeks or weekends from September through November. We keep the calendar up to date, so please check availability there first if you have any questions.

Family vacation
Was the perfect fit for our family and everyone was comfortable. Very home like feel. Would absolutely book again! The lake we had family at was not too far although I wish the property had more local access to lakes you could walk to.

Our stay was short but enjoyable! The owners had great communication and the cabin was clean when we arrived. Plus it had everything we needed to be comfortable. Lots of space! My friends and I would definitely recommend for an “up north” getaway.

Beautiful and relaxing place!
We wanted a nice quiet place to stay in the northwoods of Minnesota and this was a truly great spot down a gravel road. The house has a beautiful newer kitchen and bathroom, a comfy living room with a great TV, a nice dining area, and a great front and back decks. That we could bring our two well-behaved dogs made it perfect. The nearby town of Bigfork has a great pizza place, nice grocery store and cute little city park. There are lots of lake and river access points within 20 miles that we enjoyed too. The owner, Nancy, was so nice and responded quickly when I had questions. When a big storm rolled through she checked to be sure we were alright too. We would love to stay again and cannot recommend this place highly enough!

This is a wonderful place to stay if you like long walks in the woods and quiet days on the lakes.
This is our fourth year to stay at Twin Pines in late October. The Shaws are wonderful hosts and their home is comfortable, clean, and well stocked with all the basics. We bring our bird dogs and spend our days hunting in the woods. We would highly recommend it.

Great Accommodations and Owner
It's not the Ritz Carlton, but if you enjoy the outdoors and want to be central to Minnesota's North woods, you will love this house. It's perfectly located, well kept, clean, comfortable and complete with everything you need to cook and enjoy your time in the woods.
The owners (Jim and Nancy) are wonderful people and wonderful "hands-on" Owners. The give you the quiet space you want but are responsive if you need them.
I highly recommend this rental.

Country Getaway
The owners were very accommodating in making the reservations and communicating with us. The rental had plenty of very comfortable beds. I wish we could have stayed there longer, but a family reunion kept us busy for the time we were in the area. The rental had a bit of an old house smell, but the open windows provided plenty of fresh air. I would recommend this rental as a comfortable getaway.

We spent 3 days in the cabin and really enjoyed it.
It's a great house, with a lovely back yard and deck, very well equipped and comfortable.
Has some nice areas to go visit nearby.
Jim and Nancy where very nice and efficent when answering to all of our emails and questions.
Only downside where the bugs and mosquitos. They're a killer.

Another great year of hunting for our crew. Seven of us bagged 24 grouse by Sunday. We've done better, the weather made it tough. Looking forward to coming back in 2015. Great home and accommodations. Tom K.

Family vacation
We had a great time in the Northwoods. The house is clean and comfortable and fully stocked. We canoed down the Big Fork River, boated, fished, and hiked. Saw some wildlife but not as much as we expected. This is a pretty remote area - no cell service, no internet, no TV except for DVD's. It makes it hard to plan your daily activities and keep in touch. Bring the OFF - the mosquitoes and biting flies were horrible.

Thank you for the review. Sorry the bugs were so bad, but as you know, we can't control that. Unfortunately, you were here during mid-summer when they tend to be worse, and this has been a bad year for mosquitoes in Minnesota. We do have a Three-Season Porch to sit in to get away from the bugs. For future reference, there are few bugs outside up here in May, early June, and in the fall, which are all nice times to be outdoors.
Regarding no internet or cell, yes our home is in a "remote" area, and we hope to someday have internet service hooked up. That is on our "Wish List", hopefully in the near future. I also want to mention that even though you can't "call" on your cell at the house, you are able to send text messages.
Thank you for choosing Twin Pines!

Quiet Retreat in the Forest
Want a neat getaway home for a family or two? Twin Pines is a comfortable and quiet getaway home in the Chippewa National Forest. It's super quiet and we loved sitting on the deck with coffee in the morning and listening to the birds. The nighttime sky is spectacular. Numerous lakes are nearby along with the Big Fork River for canoeing and birding. The wonderful Scenic State Park is about 20 miles east. The house is well furnished with games and books and everything you need for dining in. The upstairs loft has five beds and there are two bedrooms downstairs plus a sofa-bed.
