Escape to a Northwoods Cabin with private island!

A comfy & cozy retreat in the Northwoods of Minnesota awaits you and yours for a quiet space to relax and enjoy the designed indoor & outdoor spaces. A small rural town with simple amenities is a half mile away or larger cities just 20+ miles away with outdoor activities galore. We have several State Parks nearby so perfect for hiking with your dogs. Our 80-foot bridge to a private island on a pond is a perfect setting to read a book or play cards with some friends. Our unique custom speakeasy basement bar and surrounding intimate spaces will keep you at ease.

Our space is private and nestled among towering pine trees on a private pond with an accessible island via a covered custom bridge. We are gardeners so have built seasonal flower gardens and Japanese style gardens over the years. We love sharing our little piece of heaven to others. Each season has something special to share. Our home has been fully remodeled for guests to enjoy. We have ample safe space for your furry babies to roam and explore too!

Guests have access to:
Beautiful grounds with plenty of space to roam
Perfect star gazing and if you’re lucky, you’ll see the Northern Lights
Indoor wood fireplace for cozy nights
Seasonal outdoor wood sauna. If want to use the outdoor sauna, there is an extra $100 charge which includes prep and firewood. We can chat more in detail if you want to use it!
Indoor electric sauna (can pour water for steam!)
Private Bridge over pond to an Island House with small living room setting.
Two-car garage (good for snowmobilers and 4-wheelers too!)

Other things to note:
We have an indoor electric sauna and an outdoor wood sauna. Perfect for relaxation! The outdoor wood sauna has an extra fee as it entails set up and firewood.

If use of the indoor fireplace is wanted, we can arrange for firewood for a small fee and provide instructions.

Outdoor sauna is not allowed in winter due to potential for running water to freeze. Contact us if this is important to you.

Brand new bridge! Escape to the island house to watch ducks or listen to the frogs.

Lovely, quaint getaway.
A friend of mine and our dogs wanted a weekend away from the “rat race” of the city and work. The hosts were very prompt, responsive and wonderful to work with in the booking and stay. Their home is very peaceful and very well put together.

Beautiful and relaxing
Great spot. Big yard for the dogs, flowers and fruit trees, space for the teens to get away from the adults. Several state parks within 30 min but you wouldn’t need to leave. Cabin has lovely amenities. Nice hosts as well :).

Loved it. Everything you'd want
We loved this property. Feels very secluded, but not hard to get to. Beautiful decor that is the perfect mixture of nostalgic cozy cabin with modern fixtures and finishes that make it feel luxurious. They have everything you could ever want including an indoor suana and built-in bar area in the basement. We loved how many games were stocked and available to play, and spent most of our night playing games and laughing and listening to music on the Alexa speakers that were on both the upper and lower levels for use. Our group of 6 friends had a blast and wished we could have stayed longer!

Beautiful home, great location
We stayed here with a family group (including dogs) for a quiet long weekend and could not have been more pleased. The house itself is beautifully furnished and well-appointed. The care and pride the owners take in the home is evident in every detail. The owners were also very welcoming and gracious, and were helpful in promptly answering questions and accommodating our individual needs. The location was excellent - we loved feeling secluded in nature while also being close to local attractions like Duluth and state parks
