Enjoyed our stay but a few minor quirks
The space was comfortable, but it contains way too much furniture, making some rooms hard to navigate. There were only 3 of us, so it was fine for us. The property listing did not make clear that there was no bathroom upstairs, where there are beds for many sleepers. The location is fairly remote, we had to drive 27-30 minutes to go hiking and canoeing and even eating out. For fisher-folks (not us), however, that could be satisfied closer by. The kitchen was great - had every appliance and more than most would need/want. Plenty of games and puzzles, as advertised. Cleaning and laundry products and shampoo/conditioner provided - which is very thoughtful.

Perfect lake cabin
If you’re looking for a rustic up north lake cabin experience, this is it! You can tell this is someone’s treasured family cabin and it’s been well loved for generations. It’s quirky, it’s not glamorous, the internet is not fast and nor should it be—GO OUTSIDE or play any one of the numerous board games or DVDs they have! The back yard and lakefront view are beautiful and the back porch is so peaceful at night. It’s also child and dog friendly. It was even better than the photos. Communication with the property manager was prompt and easy. The cabin was well stocked with kitchen supplies/appliances and we were very comfortable.

This is a great camp!!
The location of this property on a very beautiful and quiet lake is outstanding. It has everything that you need for a comfortable stay. This is a camp. There are lots of bugs in the area as you would expect because you’re surrounded by the woods in the water. Bring bug spray for the evenings. The beds are all comfortable and clean. Lots of outdoor toys and a ton of old school video games if you’re into that stuff. The kitchen had everything we needed. We used the on-site boat ramp and pulled our fishing boat up to the dock. We fished the lake that the cabin is on (Smith lake) and wore out largemouth bass all week. We also trailered the boat five minutes and put in at Mille Lacs lake. Those days we had a great time catching walleye, northern pike, rocks bass and small mouth. Our host, Mike, had great communication and was very responsive. He checked in before we arrived and then several times during our stay. He seems very attentive. I would highly recommend this property if you want to relaxing vacation in the woods and lakes! We will be back!

Needs a couple improvements
Overall it was very nice. Kids liked the loft area with video games/games at night. They also enjoyed playing pool. I loved the screened in porch. The couple draw backs were that the handles on the outside screen door/porch keep wanting to fall off. The other thing was the gas grill was awful dirty. The fish cleaning station was also pretty bad. No running water in there and very dirty.

Family Getaway
Great property for a long weekend away with family. The backyard is bigger than the pictures make it out to be. The house provides seemingly endless activities both in and off the water.

Wi-Fi is not consistent, so if you are in need to do work, it’s unreliable Bugs, killed many in the house. Opened cabinets under sink, and saw 2 inches of black dirt. Dishwasher sounds like it’s going to explode Pet hair on rugs to porch, cobwebs all over the house. Beautiful view Bathroom shower, rusty

Everything was perfect. It’s much nicer then the photos. Beautiful setting and we didn’t mind that we only caught a few fish.

Huge yard, private lake, lots of fun!
This is a huge lot, well maintained, with so much lake shore: beautiful! Our 2-year-old granddaughter caught fish off the dock and we could paddle on our SUPs to catch some tranquil sunsets. We enjoyed the provided hammocks, Corn Hole game, yard toys and floating inner tubes for leisurely days. And the fire pit was grand for making lovely HoBo foil dinners and SomeMores! It is close to Garrison and Lake Mille Lacs where we launched our sailboat and the golf courses, as well as some nice restaurants, breweries and shopping in Crosby. And Mike, the manager, was extremely accessible and easy to reach when we had questions. We had a wonderful time!
