So darn cute, we absolutely loved the porch of this place! Randy is such a congenial host, aiming to make all feel welcome. Comfortable space with just the right amenities in the tiny cabin. We'd love to come back again with friends, go fishing & have Randy do one of his fish fries!
We had a wonderful time staying at Randy's cabin. It was just right for the two of us. If we are ever in the area again, we will most definitely stay with Randy.
Cabin was super clean, well stocked and decorated adorably. Hosts Randy and Shannon saw to our every need and were helpful with local information. We loved it there!
It was exactly what I needed for a little space to myself away from a big festival and I slept like a log! Very, very friendly hosts as well! Loved the stories and the pickle jar bloody mary!
Rustic and quaint cabin…we really enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and the area!
We went atving in the area exploring the forests around Federal Dam. You can jump on a trail that’s nearby or trailer to a trailhead. Either way works.
The cabin gave us a relaxing place to come back to every day after riding! We also enjoyed the visits with our hosts. They are great people!

Wow! Where do I start, such a lovely experience inside and out! The hosts were beyond my wildest expectations and extraordinary, lifelong friendships were made. The fishing is top tier if you’re searching for such, but I would stay for the conversations and campfires. We WILL be back again, the locals are amazing and it’s such a lovely atmosphere. I only wish I could thank our hosts more!

Overall
The listing had "waterfront" in the listing which is what I really wanted - to go out of the door and enjoy a waterfront and not have to drive to get to the waterfront. I should have reviewed more closely. The hard water made things smell which is normal but taking a shower was uncomfortable with the condition of the water. The shower curtain needs to be washed. I brought all of my own food, plates and utensils and am glad I did.
I cannot say enough good things about our stay in Federal dam
Shannon and Randy were great hosts, they clearly wanted us to have a good time (and we had a great time). The Crappie Cabin was clean, warm and very cute. Randy is a fishing guide, and although he had other clients booked for this weekend, he encouraged us to fish along side with him, free of change. Randy put us on the fish, and the fishing was really good. We will be booking another stay with them next year because we had such a good time!
If you have the opportunity to book this cabin, don't hesitate! Simply relax! Without TV! You have everything you need! Bathroom, small kitchen with fridge and microwave, separate bedroom, sitting area. Everything there! Super clean! And it's so cozy! If you have no problem with a bunk bed and can climb a bit, then go for it! Two people could sleep in the bottom bunk if need be.
Cpt. Randy is the world's best host! Just call him! We had a great time and would have loved to stay longer!

Welcomed and called by name after driving across the yard. (I wasn't driving)
Long story/short. Open air, good fishing, history, comradery, unplug. really want to rant and rave about experience but that one is for me.
Captain-Admiral hats off to you both.
Before we even arrived the hosts were so helpful and welcoming! The Crappie cabin was such a nice little home away from home and we enjoyed getting to know the hosts and making new friends! Wonderful place to stay and highly recommend!
Quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of home/work. Randy and Shannon were available to answer any questions that popped up and brought us out for excellent fishing and a fish fry after. For a no fuss unplugged retreat Last Cast Adventure is a must!
We had a delightful time on our trip to Leech Lake! Randy and Shannon were both very hospitable and knowledgeable of the area. Our cabin had everything we needed and was cutely decorated with an overall fishing theme. The Last Cast boat lounge in the yard was an amazing bonus! The location is surrounded by pristine national forest and beautiful lakes and wetlands. Lots of great memories were had.
