Buffalo Lake Cabin I Private Beach l Detroit Lakes l Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the secluded feel of this property. The owners were great and left some toys for our dogs. Wish we could have stayed longer!"

{Big Timbers} Lodging next to North Entrance of Itasca State Park

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean property and room. Hosts were accommodating when I booked the wrong room and were understanding when I asked to switch. Easy to access right off hwy 200, and close to activities with a gas station convenience store across the street. We hope to visit again in season to go to their ice cream shop!"

The Definition of Get-Away-from-it-All!

10/10 Excellent

"The property was very private and beautiful. The hot tub and sauna were a nice bonus. The solar shower was chilly, but refreshing after a sauna! We took out the paddleboat and caught fish. We used the firepit each night and the stars were bright and breathtaking. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this property to others who don't mind not having running water in the cabin."

New Lake Front Cabin 2BD 2Bath-Sofa bed - hot tub-18 miles to Itasca State Park

10/10 Excellent

"The property was like new! We had a great time and the hot tub being in a screened in porch is such a treat! Having access to a pontoon for fishing was amazing and the weather was perfect for a lake day. The hosts Todd and Stacey were so nice and attentive to any questions we had."

Peaceful Lakefront Family Cabin. Boat slip. Fishing. Near Itasca State Park

8/10 Good

"Very nice, clean cabin. Would have been even better if a couple of kayaks were available. Bathroom could use a comfort height toilet."

Country Farmhouse at 14 Hands Farm

10/10 Excellent

"The host has thought of so many little details and stocked the place accordingly. Fresh baked cookies at check in!! Huge table for everyone to eat at. Bright rooms with lots of natural light. Comfy beds, warm water, extra blankets & towels, shampoo & conditioner & body wash - all here! Space to park. We were a family gathering- 9 total- and there was a lot of space for us. I would say the only thing missing was a kettle. My only recommendation would be adding a second fridge. With that many people, even just a small fridge for drinks, dips, and desserts would be a great addition. Overall, we loved the house-it’s simply beautiful; it had everything we needed for cooking & BBQing. We all really enjoyed our time here!! Close to the lakes too, so we also got out fishing!!"
