MINNESTAY* Lakefront Hideaway ★ Serene Waterfront Cabin ★ Boat Slip

This special cabin is maintained and was built by a craftsman who has been building custom homes for 25+ years (2009). Dubbed "Lakefront Hideaway" for its rustic charm, it boasts the classic log cabin allure you're looking for and will make you feel right at home.

The living space is filled with floor to ceiling windows, giving you a beautiful view of the lake and those amazing Minnesota sunsets. If you want an even better view just head down to the dock and watch the sun set directly across the lake. The kitchen is fully stocked and even includes a large island, with plenty of counter space to cook or entertain, with full-size, updated appliances.

Spread out over 1,700 square feet, Lakefront Hideaway comfortably sleeps 6 people. There is one 1 queen bed in the main floor bedroom, and another queen-sized bed in the upstairs loft area. In the second bedroom above the garage, there are 2 twin beds and plenty of room to accommodate a queen-size blow-up mattress. The loft includes a small television with an assortment of classic VHS tapes, as well as a comfy couch and chair. Spread out in the living room on the main floor with brand new furniture, and enjoy the fireplace while you play games before bedtime.

Outside you will find a large patio with a beautiful built-in fire pit, as well as a large yard for activities. No residents or homes are across the lake, so your view is pure wooded forest. You can relax in the hammock, kayak the lake, grill, or play bean bag toss, all of which and more are available when you book this cabin. The dock is large enough to accommodate a boat and/or jet ski, and the public access is just down the street, making this the perfect quiet and relaxing cabin getaway.

Fantastic 5 night stay
This cabin stay exceeded our expectations! It was clean and had everything we needed, great kitchen and fun games too. I don't really like swimming in Minnesota lakes usually, so for me to like swimming there is a big deal, is was kinda warm and not weedy. The view is gorgeous , we have nothing bad to say at all. Thank you very much!

Beautiful Cabin
This is a beautiful cabin. We rent a few VRBO's per year and this was the cleanest. Very cozy, nice views of the lake, comfortable beds, upgrade amenities throughout the cabin. We love to fish, while we only caught some small sun fish, the dock was nice. We were up for a funeral, so it was nice to have family join us and enjoy the fire pit, enjoy the views and share stories.

Fantastic Cabin!
The cabin was the perfect spot for a relaxing change of pace weekend. A manageable drive from the city to a small lake where you feel like you're miles away. The cabin was very clean and well stocked with linens, towels, kitchen supplies, etc. The kayaks and fire pit were added bonuses for our group. We will definitely return.

Our hidden escape
This property was accurately described in its listing: Very quiet location, beautiful lake, and a very tasteful, well-built home. We soaked up the views from inside or from the lovely patio. Perfect place for me to read two books in one week. We definitely recommend this piece of Minnesota heaven.

Beautiful getaway
The cabin/lake home was beautiful, cozy, and welcoming. Beautiful view on the lake, a great patio with fire pit, and plenty of space. It's only a short drive to nice hiking trails, and if you're into it, you can check out the biggest ball of twine in Darwin (a 5 minute drive). Very happy we chose this place.

Fond of cooking
Please replace the largest frying pan with a more solid one. An additional saucepan would also be nice.

R&R at the Lake
Very clean and modern A frame cabin with a loft and plenty of room. Large backyard patio with a fire pit and all of the amenities you would expect. A walk down to the dock reveals a smaller farm country lake that lends itself to small craft and kayaks. Lots of quiet and chances for relaxing only 90 minutes from the cities.

I would defiantly recommend
This place was so beautiful. We went in the winter and the lake view was gorgeous. You can’t walk down to the lake though from the cabin in the winter. I would think this would be great for the summer! You could fit probably 10 people here with a couple air mattresses. Plenty of room upstairs to put them. Kids have a cute area up stairs to hang out too if you want kids upstairs and adults downstairs. We did a girls weekend and would defiantly come here again!
