A view of Lake Superior set in the middle of a working farm

Bring the whole family to this true Farmhouse! My husband and I bought my grandpa’s house on my family farm and we want to share it with you. This spacious newly remodeled house with a large kitchen and dining area, an open concept that is great for large groups and big families. A master bedroom with a king bed, master bathroom has a large shower and you can even take a soak in the cattle stock tank bathtub. Second full bathroom on the main floor with a large shower too. On the lower level the bunk room will be a huge hit! With 3 twin beds, 2 double beds it makes for a fun nights sleep! Across the hall you’ll find a large bedroom with two queen beds and a small sitting area. This bedroom had its own large bathroom with a shower. Washer and dryer as well on lower level of the split level home.
If you love the country, absolutely beautiful views and animals this is definitely the spot for you! Experience the sites sounds and smells of a working farm. Tractors, cows, pigs and hard-working farmers can be found everywhere, everyday on this property! You will hear cows mooing, pigs squealing and calves calling for mom, tractors working, dirt bikes and four wheelers driving around, kids playing and me calling In the cows in for milking time. These things will differ depending on the time of year you come and stay with us. Enjoy beautiful places to take walks, we even have access to a river canyon with waterfalls that you can hike to. Come join me in the barn at milking time, you can even milk a cow!
The farm is about 10 minutes away from down town Grand Marais! Full of great shopping, coffee and food all on the shore of Lake Superior! We look forward to meeting you and I’m thrilled to share The Farmers House with all of you!

Perfect family vacation

We had such a good time at this rental. The farmhouse is beautiful and had all of the amenities we needed. The family loved visiting the animals and easy access to farm-fresh eggs and dairy too. Just a short drive into downtown Grand Marais, which was easy.

Frigid outside but happy inside!

Very lovely and well appointed. Beautiful and a comfortable place to stay. We were fairly housebound as the weather outside happened to be frightfully cold when we were there. The farm aspect is very fun!

Fantastic space for family gatherings, board games and quality time

Eight of us stayed for a few days, and we were very happy with the venue. This was actually the second year we booked this farmhouse. It was great for us to be able to share the kitchen, sit around the dining table for board games, and also relax on the couches and chairs in the large great room together.

Long weekend

This was our second time staying on property, and this time we came up with our parents as well as all 3 kids. Perfect place to rest, let the kids explore outside and meet the farm animals. The house has everything to make us feel comfortable and the family enjoyed meeting everyone working at the farm. We will be back again sooner than later!

The Perfect Stay

Our stay at the Lakeview Dairy Farm was amazing! We didn't know what to expect and it was just perfect. Lyndsay and her family were the perfect hosts. We learned all about the dairy farm and enjoyed the company of the family. Our dog was in heaven with the wide open spaces and all of the farm animals. The location is perfect with a view of the lake and the quiet of a farm. The house was well equipped, clean and really comfortable! We will be back!

Magical

We loved our stay in the middle of this quaint working farm. First Lindsey has created a very cool living space with everything you need for a very comfortable space. She has thought of everything! From the sitting area, you get a view of Lake Superior (in the distance) and the cows right outside your window. We enjoyed walking on the farm in the morning and enjoyed a great hike right from the farm. Look no further for a really unique and restful stay.

We love this place so much!

This was our second stay at The Farmer's House, and honestly... I just can't bring myself to book anywhere else on the north shore now that we have found it. It is so peaceful. The house is perfect. The lighting that slowly filters into the house as the sun rises is a photographer's dream. My children never tire of the cows, cats, and the sheep. I almost hate to publish this review because I know it is going to make it that much harder to get this house, but it is a not miss, one of a kind, and truly special place.

Simply perfect

This is such a unique experience with the house sitting on the edge of the farm. The home is lovely and, with huge windows in every room, it is full of light (and provides opportunities to watch all the hard work that goes into working the farm as well as enjoy the coming and going of various farm animals). The farm includes a small store which offers fresh produce, meat, milk, honey, cookies, etc. It’s only a short drive into town to get additional groceries or enjoy a meal at any number of eateries or a beer at Voyager. If you enjoy hiking, trails are very close by.

Family getaway

We loved our stay! It is a beautiful setting overlooking Lake Superior. Best of all we were in the middle of a working farm. So nice of Lyndsey and family to be so welcoming and to teach us all how the family farm is run. Loved having the little self serve store to buy fresh eggs, cream, and lemon curd from. Delicious. The house was perfect in every way for our 3 families. Especially the kitchen and great room. Room for us all to gather to cook, play games and read. I loved not having television. We had everything we need in a beautiful setting and house.

Fabulous Stay!

Our family (our three children, their spouses, and our grandchildren) stayed at this beautiful farmhouse in August. The home itself is beautifully remodeled and decorated. The grandchildren were so excited to sleep in the bunk room and lofted beds. Lyndsay made our stay one that will never be forgotten. We had the opportunity to gather the cows from the pastures and walk them to the barn, where we were all able to learn about the milking process and even got to milk a cow! The grandchildren will never forget this experience. Lyndsay was a gracious, kind, patient host. We have already made our reservation for next year and are so excited to go back! Thank you Lyndsay!

Magical

This is a marvelous hidden gem - a working, family-run natural dairy farm tucked a few miles up the Gun Flint Trail from Grand Marais. Dairy cows moo a feet out your window, along with pigs and chickens, with spectacular views of Lake Superior. There is a really special feeling to this place - it’s clear the owners (who were all around, running the farm) pour their souls into this place - and it adds something inexplicable and magical to the place. The dairy products were the best I’ve ever sampled, and my kids got a chance to milk the cows. The inside of the property was *beautifully* appointed, with a magnificent kitchen and beautiful bedrooms and it was a great place to rest in, and come back to after a day out taking in the local sights. Needless to say, I’ll be back.

We are a multi family of 10, age ranging from 9-73 (5 kids). This was our 6th year staying at the farmers house. It is such a magical place. The house is still just as beautiful as the first time we stayed. Lyndsay takes such great care of the house. You can see the love she’s poured into every corner. It’s even more beautiful in person than in the photos. Next, you are outside on the farm- milking cows, feeding the animals, hiking to the nearby waterfall (swimming when the water level allows!), accessing the pincushion trail never having to get into your vehicle…the list goes on. We will forever return to the farmer’s house as long as Lyndsay and her family continue to share this gem of a vacation home/experience/adventure/farm with us all. Until next year!
Walking back through the fields from hiking to pin cushion. Breathtaking views everywhere you turn!

Everyone loved the cows!

This property is a rustic farmhouse on a real dairy farm. We had many opportunities to see and hangout with the cows we even talked to the owner and were able to milk them! Along with that this farmhouse has a great view of Lake Superior and has great hiking/walking trails around it. We spent one day skiing at lutsen and the other two hiking and going to wineries and breweries.

Cozy winter getaway

Maybe we are crazy to head farther north at one of the coldest times of the year, but when your two young 20-something daughters are both available for the long weekend, you take advantage of the rare opportunity. With grandma and two dogs also in tow, we spent an incredibly cozy and beautiful extended weekend at this lovely farmhouse. It is truly in the center of the farm, which has scenic views of Lake Superior, rustic farm buildings, cows and woods. The beautifully decorated farmhouse has everything you need—heated floors, rainfall showers, crockpots, and even a modern phone charger built right into the huge awesome kitchen counter. We ventured out in subzero weather for milking in addition to visiting some of our favorite Grand Marais and Lutsen spots. Incredible respect for our host and family who run a top notch VRBO in between birthing calves, farming, and tending animals! Thank you Lindsay and family!
