9 Acres of Secluded Freedom along the Kettle River in Sturgeon Lake, MN

8/10 Good
"The listing may be misleading to those who have never been in a camper, as it says "3 Bedroom". Clarification: there is one bedroom with a short queen bed, a set of bunks in the main area with a curtain, and couch and dinette that can be used for more sleeping space. This is a wonderful space to "camp" effortlessly. Just grab your food and go. We had a wedding nearby and didn't want to haul our own camper just to sleep in for a couple days. The yard was super cute. The area is heavily wooded and there is a beautiful 200 step trail to a river (stream at the moment). There are no other walking trails. The bedding/towels are nice and clean, and the kitchen is stocked with the basics.As stated in the description, there is no wi-fi. Also, the cell service is almost non-existant (even Verizon), We left one teen home alone and couldn't watch the storm radar (scary!) Bring books and games in case of rain. Game selection is minimal and you won't be watching movies due to the lack of wi-fi, cell service, and a working movie player. Don't plan to shower unless you are very short and don't mind cold water. The shower head doesn't reach the hook and the quick shut off switch causes water it to spray out of the hose rather than the shower head. Camper water heaters are very small and a shower without a shut off switch turns very cold very quickly. Finally, the sewer smell upon flushing the toilet is horrible. Just be ready to flush and run."

"We absolutely loved our room and the grounds. The staff were very kind, helping us as soon as we arrived. The windows for our lake-view room were huge! The Keurig machine with lots of coffee pods was a very nice feature. Access to kayaks, canoes, paddleboats, and life jackets was an added bonus. The grounds are beautiful, and it was a nice, quiet time in early September. I would definitely book again!"

"Pet friendly & clean. Host was super responsive. Lots of firewood available. Really beautiful lake view. The post changed after we booked (no ping pong table and there was indication of additional sleeping space on the original post); non-issue for us. It's a bit musty smelling in the house; high moisure."
