Fly Fishing Trip
Our stay at the cabin was very nice, everything we could have asked for. Too bad the fishing wasn’t a little better. 😉

2nd year in a row and still the best!
Root River Valley Cabin is amazing, and the owners make it so easy to check in. It's always clean, well-appointed, and close to so many activities. I would recommend this cabin to anyone that is interested. Thank you again for another great trip!

Delightful Stay in the Driftless District
The cabin was a delight - spacious, clean, cozily appointed and plenty of room. The location was great and the surrounding towns and countryside provided plenty of opportunity for fun exploration. We hated to leave, but will be back!

MOTM, Superbowl gathering
This place was wonderful, our group was very pleased with the home, it was beautiful, very comfortable, warm and inviting. The host Renee had many, welcome to my property, hope your stay is perfect. She also worked very hard to assure that we were able to watch the superbowl, thank you for all you did. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked with her additional things like coffee. I dont know what else to say but it was, well i could live there full time.

Fantastic Getaway With Family
This is an absolute gem of a property to stay at. My cousins and I booked the cabin for 4 days for a hunting trip. The property fit all 4 men very comfortably and could have slept at least 8 very comfortably. The amenities are fantastic and the location is very convenient. Renee (host) was great and always available to help and answer questions. Check in and Check out could not be any easier. I would highly recommend this property if you are visiting the area. Will definitely stay here again for the next hunting trip!

Family get together
We had a lovely time with 3 generations of family. We spent most of the time outside as the property had a basketball hoop, bags board and we brought relay race games along. The house was large but homey. There was enough room for the 8 of us to find a place of our own if we wanted. The back porch and porch swings were lovely and a welcome addition

Fall weekend getaway
Beautiful property in the Lanesboro area. Fully furnished with a modern kitchen, but log cabin feel. Great beds made for good nights of sleep, but didn’t spend much time there during the day because there was so much to see and do in Lanesboro and the surrounding area. Would book it again for the next stay in the area.

Cozy and spacious
The images provided do not do this place justice. As a big group of friends, we were concerned with privacy. However, even the beds outside the main rooms have plenty of privacy, and everything worked out great! It has all the nice touches of a hotel but with the social settings to connect with friends and family.

Wonderful location!
All of the other reviews are dead on - fabulous place to stay! One thing to know is that there is a sand mining operation on the river right below the house. So there is constant noise during the day. I was able to think of it as white noise but it was hard for the rest of the family to enjoy the back deck because of it Definitely loved the house and location outside of that issue

Great base for a week of fishing the Driftless
This beautiful property was a perfect base for a week of fishing the Driftless. The craftsmanship in this Amish-built cabin is spectacular and the home is very comfortable and well laid out. There is one private bedroom, a bath and a bed in a loft upstairs. On the lower level there is a bedroom, bath and second living area with a second TV and bunk beds. The living room, dining room, kitchen and laundry are located on the main level. This was a good arrangement, providing space for everyone and privacy. The location is about five minutes from Lanesboro in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by nature. The furniture in the two living areas and DR is comfortable. The beds are very comfortable. The mattress on the king bed downstairs and the one in the upstairs landing are new (this year) and firm - a huge plus for my back. The kitchen is well stocked and organized. The home owner provided all dishwashing and laundry detergents, soap, shampoo and linens, so we did not need to bring our own. The Wi-Fi worked great and we had cell good service (ATT) at the home. We will definitely stay at this beautiful home on future trips to the area.

Wonderful Place to Stay
From the moment we opened the door and smelled the comforting aroma of wood, we felt at home. The cabin is in a central location so you can get to lots of attractions quickly. The small town of Lanesboro is a very pleasant and friendly place. The house had everything we needed and we enjoyed sitting by the fireplace at night and relaxing. Bedrooms were comfortable. One previous reviewer mentioned a broken futon frame in the alcove. That futon has been replaced with a new, very comfortable double bed. The decor and the home itself are beautiful. I would love to go back to this home again and I recommend it to anyone considering it.

We came for a long weekend with adult children and grandchildren. The space fit us perfectly. The cabin was well stocked and very clean. The bed in the loft area seemed to ha be a broken frame. That was our only complaint. Would recommend. Wish that the weather would have allowed to enjoy the porch.

Lovely 2 Bedroom Place in Peaceful area
The second level porch is incredible. The place was very well equipped, clean and comfortable. I would love to visit again. I'm not sure if it is an issue with how VRBO listed it but it is not 4 bedroom - so if you are searching for that - know that there are really only 2 bedrooms plus a loft and bunks in the lower living area. You can see that if you read the full description - but unfortunately, it comes up in searches as 4. Otherwise - fantastic!!

A Breath Taking Get Away
We could not be more pleased with our stay! The cabin is just beautiful and the town is so welcoming! We work 911 in a major city and loved being out in the middle of no where! It was far enough to relax and get away but close enough to go to the store! Renee is so welcoming and has the most beautiful home and decorations! She is so aCCOM praying and the property was spotless! We will be coming back and have told all of our family members!

Winter Weekend Getaway
This cabin was a great spot for my board game group to spend a weekend away, we were pleasantly surprised to find the cabin fully decorated for the holidays! The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking shared meals and it was just a short drive to the brewery, bakeries, and shops in town. One note is that two of the four bedrooms are not very private, so some guests will need to be ok with others walking through their sleeping space.

Very likely to return!
It’s definitely a long drive from any main roads, but the rolling hills and winding valleys, it’s a lovely location. A very comfortable place for any season, with a great layout, having a few different places for groups to congregate. My only feedback would be that the main level bathroom is in direct view of the driveway, a privacy curtain or blinds would nice. Thank you!
