Welcome to this beautiful country cabin, the perfect retreat for those looking to unplug and enjoy nature. The cabin features a convenient staircase leading down to the lower level, granting easy access to the water for fishing and free use of the rowboat, kayaks, and canoe—life jackets included for your safety and peace of mind.
Inside, the cabin comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests, with a master bedroom, a spacious loft with hardwood floors, and plenty of additional space for sleeping bags on the floor or deck. The bathroom is well-appointed with a tile shower and a relaxing jetted tub. The kitchen includes newer appliances, a washer and dryer, and the cooking and dining essentials you’ll need to feel right at home.
Enjoy all the basics for a comfortable stay—kitchen utensils, linens, and towels are provided. Outside, you’ll find a fire pit, LP grill, picnic table, plenty of space to roam, and walking paths to explore. Guests have free access to kayaks, a canoe, and a rowboat (life jackets included). Fishing is catch and release only, and swimming in the lake is not allowed due to insurance restrictions.
This is a rural getaway, so expect some local wildlife, bugs, and gravel roads—it’s all part of the charm. Please note: self-check-in is optional, and guests may be prepared to enjoy their stay without host assistance.
If you're looking for a fun, unique place to unplug and unwind—this is it.
*** The cabin is located near a small campground where you might see a few campers, mostly on weekends. If you have friends with RVs or campers, feel free to invite them to join you!
Guests are welcome to enjoy the kayaks and rowboat provided, along with life jackets for safety. Please note: swimming in the lake is not allowed due to insurance restrictions. Fishing is catch-and-release only, and we ask that you use artificial bait to help protect the fish during release.
There’s a $25 pet fee per stay.
To make your stay more comfortable, don’t forget to bring any personal items you might want—like an extra blanket or your favorite pillow. I don’t provide heavy blankets by default since I can’t launder them between every guest, but I’m happy to offer them upon request.
***
This is a self-check-in rental and is located on a gravel road, 2 miles from Wadena. Expect a rural setting with occasional wildlife or insects. No parties or gatherings allowed unless it is pre approved and there is 200$ minimum fee if approved and no unregistered guests are allowed to use the facilities, watercraft, or fishing without paying a fee.
Amazing host. The property is breathtaking. We can’t wait to go back.

Relaxing Weekend
We picked this property for a relaxing sisters weekend! The cabin was what we expected, clean and cute. The teenagers loved the small lake and the kayaks and canoes provided, host was super friendly and nice. A great weekend of unplugging and spending time together.

Perfect cabin for a weekend stay or week long stay! All the amenities for a quiet stay & away from every day technology. Within 15-20 minutes to small, quaint towns including grocery, restaurants and small town shopping. Communication with host was convenient and very responsive. Thank you, we’ll be sure to recommend and be back!

A Wonderful Cozy Cabin
This cabin was a beautiful little place out in the country, away from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It made for a great chance for my family and I to get away from everyday life and just relax. Having access to the water made for some great memories for my niece. And my parents also especially enjoyed having such a nice sized deck/porch to laze around on. The owner was very polite and answered all my questions. Would absolutely stay here again!

Pretty cozy stay
We were expecting 2 bathrooms and 4 total beds. Only had one double bed and 2 twins. Lucky there were 2 fold out couches. We packed our chairs to use so didn’t use the ones supplied but there was plenty seating available. Loved the wrap around porch!

Quiet peaceful cabin
Our family of five chose this cabin for a short getaway. We all had a wonderful time , the lake is beautiful and quiet. We especially enjoyed kayaking, canoeing and paddle boating. Andy met us there when we arrived and was super easy to communicate with. The cabin had everything our family needed. Inside there are plenty of games, the kitchen had what we needed to eat in, the grill was great, there were plenty of towels and toiletries. We set up chairs around the fire pit and enjoyed sitting out there at night listening to the sounds of nature. This is a wonderful cabin and we’d highly recommend it. Planning to return.

Another amazing stay at this great cabin! My wife and I stayed here for the second time recently and just had a great time. The cabin is very, very clean, with great amenities, a beautiful pond just outback, and just extremely serene and calm. Andy is great, very kind and very good to work with. He even brought us some fresh sweet corn one night which was delicious! We will definitely be back again for our third visit, hopefully sometime this fall when the trees are turning colors and the temperatures are going down. Highly recommend it!
