Farmstay in Mahnomen County

"We had a blast. The property was immaculate and had everything we needed. "

"This beautifully restored cabin, is off a quiet county road tucked in a grove of tall pine trees . A perfect setting for a walk down the small private road and enjoy the sound of birds and the breeze.Inside the cabin (open floor plan) the kitchen had a large wooden island stocked with cookware and utensils, a farmhouse style sink and retro refrigerator and electric range. Beware stepping into the bathtub/shower, it’s slick and could us some no skid strips or a bath mat.The open staircase had cable railings, which kept the open-air feeling and led to the sleeping loft above. Simply furnished with a queen-sized bed, and an upholstered chair w/ottoman. The rafters are low-pitched so caution standing up out of bed!The main living room had a sturdy log frame futon that converted into a full-sized bed. Loved the bent-wood rocking chair and repurposed desk that worked comfortably as a small table for 2.The lantern type lighting fixtures throughout the cabin seemed dim at night, consider adding a floor lamp or a small table lamp for reading?There’s a full porch, with a wicker table & chairs on one end, but my favorite was the antique cast-iron bench perfect for reading or watching a momma robin fly to her nest to feed her chick in a nest just above rafters There’s easy access to the North entrance to Itasca Park and the Mississippi Headwaters. We kayaked, hiked & rented a pontoon boat in the park.And our hosts checked in with us to ensure we had a comfortable stay!"

"Beautiful cabin! It had everything we needed and more. Great communication! So much fun fishing and swimming. The lake has a great variety of fish and we had no trouble catching them! Fun little get away!"

"We stayed at Cabin Elenor, and loved how cozy it was. Spacious for a family of 3, plenty of board games, movies, and books as well. They also had a full kitchen with supplies, and fully running refrigerator and water. Bathroom was clean and was supplied with hygiene items as well. The only con inside the cabin was that the sink in the bathroom was backed up, and started filling with dirty water right away, so we had to brush and wash our hands in the kitchen sink. The outside was wonderful. It has a deck you can walk directly out to, and we ate breakfast there outside and enjoyed the scenery. They also had a nice little fire pit right outside the cabin, which was surrounded by large boulders; it made it feel very warm and secluded. They also have plenty of trails for hiking, riding an ATV, and playing area for children, which included a swing set just a short walk from the cabin, as well as a half court basketball court and hoop. Many things to love about this place! We will be back someday."
