Best Hosts & Cabin in North Minnesota

We spent two weeks at Tom & Lisa’s Paradise and loved every minute. They were so responsive, so chill, and they saw to EVERY detail. We spent hours on the 40’ covered deck, and the fishing was GREAT! With 3 bedroom/2 baths & 2 livingrooms, we all had space. The kitchen is stocked with EVERYTHING you need, and the towels and sheets were 5-star quality. And this place was spotless top to bottom. Spotless. Will be back!

Perfect week!

Our family had a great time this week. The cabin had everything we needed and more. We spent so much time talking, playing, and just relaxing on the deck watching the ducks and geese as well as the kids down below catching frogs. We would highly recommend Paliside Place!!

Quiet retreat

Beautiful, well-appointed home for a quiet getaway. Hosts were communicative and helpful. Our family of 5, with 3 kids over age 19, enjoyed the lower level games, the kayaking and the back deck. We brought two dogs and there was plenty of space to run in the yard and rest inside. The hosts thought of everything to ensure our stay was perfect. Thank you!

Sets a High Bar

This is one of those properties that sets the gold standard for staying in someone's home rather than just renting a cabin. The hosts have thought of and provided so many little creature comforts that it's like staying at your best friend's house rather than a stranger's. The hosts take a lot of pride in their home and really care that you are comfortable. We really appreciated allowing our dogs to come and introducing our two pups to the water was a hilarious highlight of the week. The hosts even provide dog beds and poop bags, lol! The property is a relaxing getaway with plenty of room for a family to spread out or get together for fun and games. The lake is very peaceful and we enjoyed listening to the loons and frogs. This home makes for a great getaway and wonderful time with family!

Great Place to Vacation!

This cabin had everything and then some! The deck is huge and so comfortable for our whole group of 7 adults and 2 dogs! The back yard was perfect to hold a corn hole (bean bag) tourney. We also caught walleye for the first time at a lake more than northern! We love our walleye to eat. Northern are good too and more fun to catch but nothing beats walleye to eat! Had a great fish fry. Even got the good ol' Wii out and did some hunting and fishing on that! Our hosts went above and beyond to answer every question quickly and even had a nice little welcome bag for us. Over all, A++!

Familly Fun & Games

The propery was great! It was very clean and well furnished. We were never bored. We had 2 double elimination tournaments (Skee Ball and Air Hockey). We brought trophies and a good time was had by all. Sitting on the deck with morning coffee and listening to the loons was phenomenal!! Thank you for the family memories we were able to create.

Amazing Hosts and beautiful cabin!

We cannot express how amazing this place is. The hosts were always available, thoughtful, and the cabin had more than everything we needed. By far the best VRBO experience we've had and will definitely be back.

Spacious & Cozy Lake Home Close to Trails

This house was perfect four our family of four and my parents! The kids loved the games in the basement. Our dog was in high heaven on the deck’s dog beds. We couldn’t have asked for a more prime location in its proximity to the ATV/OHV trails where we spent most of our time outside the home. Overall this place was beautiful, exceeded our expectations, and the owners were PERFECT to communicate with when we had questions or needed something. Thanks for an excellent stay to finish off our summer!

Perfect Cabin Experience

This place must be newly renovated because it offered very clean amenities and luxury you wouldn’t expect especially if you bring your dogs with you. We had a great time exploring the water with the provided water toys. No stress stay! Would come back.

Paradise in Palisade Review

We had 4 adults, 4 kids, and our dog join for our family trip to the cabin in June. The owners are great communicators and everything is well kept and organized. The kids had fun playing air hockey, fishing, and playing with all the games provided. We caught crappies, sunfish, bluegills, and bass off the dock and when we took our boat out. Minnesota National is a short drive away and is a great golf course to play. We had an enjoyable vacation at Paradise in Palisade. Thanks again!
