The cabin was extremely clean and stocked with everything you can think of. Beautiful cabin with a large deck overlooking the lake. Very private and peaceful location. They have awesome firepits and water toys, also extremely clean. We rented the pontoon and had a blast fishing and just exploring the lake. We enjoyed our stay immensely and hope to be back! Also, Amy was wonderful to work with! ##### viviana l. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer G.

Amy was accommodating and nearby if we needed anything. The fishing was great (for our catch & release crew) and many could be seen right off the dock. The swim areas and floating raft were great additions for everyone. The house was clean, organized, and large enough for our large group. ##### Jennifer G.

Amy gave us a tour of the lake upon arrival in the pontoon so we’d know the fishing spots and even provided grandpa with a walking stick to make it easier to get to the dock. Will definitely be back! 5 stars given by all! ##### Wade N. Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### terri V.

Their attention to detail is the best we have seen. My wife has been taking a summer "Up North" vacation for over 50 years. We decided to try Park Rapids this year and we are glad we are back. It is a great place to spend a week, lots to do and plenty of local amenities. Back to Amy and her family, the place is very well appointed and everything is well thought out. You can see they take pride in what they are offering you and your family to use. We highly recommend a stay with them. ##### MIKE H.
