You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

North Country Home

Your family will be close to many area attractions when you stay at our North Country home! We are located approximately 15 minutes from lake Bemidji or the Bemidji downtown area, 20 minutes from Bemidji State Park, 30 minutes from Itasca State Park and about 20 minutes from the Movil Maze Recreation area. During the winter months, a groomed snowmobile trail runs parallel with the road in front of the house. This trail connects to many other trails in the area. In the warmer months most of these trails are used as ATV trails.

Our house features a nice sized living room with a vaulted knotty pine ceiling. The dining room is located off the living area with a galley kitchen next to it. There is a smaller dinette at the other end of the kitchen. As you enter the hall from the living room on your left is the master bedroom, with a private bath. The master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with a fan, and an electric fireplace. Further down the hall on the left is the laundry area with a front loading washer and dryer. On the right you will find the other two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with two twin beds. At the end of the hall you will find the main bath.
There is a 12 x16 ft deck outside the back door.

We are conveniently located right off Highway 2, about 8 miles west of Bemidji. There is a gas station and convenience store about a quarter mile West of our place. We often see deer in the front or backyard, and other wildlife is also in the area!

Lovely home; excellent host.
We enjoyed the comfort and amenities of the home very much. Our host could not have been more accommodating to our needs. We had a great time in Bemidji. Fishing two lakes, fabulous art show at the Watermark, great experience shopping: Bemidji Woolen Mill, Four Pines bookstore, art and gift shops and the Senior Center Gift Shop. Fun outdoor sculpture map and self tour. A good, leisurely vaca - with this beautiful vrbo for sleeping, eating, and cribbage.

Cute and clean and modern
We very much enjoyed the comfy sofas while we caught up on life. Kitchen had all we needed. Even used the piano (note: needs tuning:). We were looking for a deck of cards, but no big deal. Store extra toilet paper in bathroom instead of hall closet. Thank you we would definitely book again.

Great spot to stay for a family
We chose the spot because Wehave 4 boys ages 5-9. It was a great location with plenty of room for us all. Our boys loves running around outside and sitting by the fire looking at the stars. The owners were very nice and communicated promptly as needed. We will definitely stay here again when in the area.
