Not exactly what we expected
We were surprised to pull into a farm with 2 more houses in close proximity. From the photos on the website the cabin looks secluded. However, even though we saw cars, we only saw the host one time for about 5 minutes and no one else. It was very quiet and private. It was rustic, cozy, and clean. Very small (we expected that). We appreciated being able to bring our dogs. We had a very relaxing 2 days. We would have appreciated if the chairs by the Fire pit had been cleaned off and one of them was broken. Overall, we had a lovely time.

Cute little cabin
Very cute cabin, pretty property. The people were great and we enjoyed our stay here. The location worked great for us visiting family in the area, but it is about 20 minutes from any town. We were not prepared for Minnesota bugs so bring bug spray!
