Escape on Rush Lake

We enjoyed our stay on the lake. The cabin met our needs and was very comfortable. The neighbor was very friendly and helpful when we had a boat issue.

Nice Cabin on a Good Lake

The cabin itself while small is really nice. It wasn't really warm while we were there, the AC worked well. The lot is a nice lot with good flat ground by the lake and the shore is sand. We didn't use the washing machine, but the dryer was nice to have for wet clothes. The issues I had with the place is that while it is sand bottom it was very weedy. The neighbors either pull weeds or have a weed roller. The owners didn't do any of that. So if you are planning on swimming at the cabin plan on cleaning up yourself. The issue with that there isn't really much for tools to do that. The other issue is that the dock pictured is not what is there. The dock there is half the size and has no L with a bench. It was really frustrating to deal with as the main things we rent cabins based on swimming and fishing.

VRBO rating

Location was great. Sadly, the cabin was not. No AC when we arrived, the toilet was plugged, the TV had no cable. Also, the deck was half the size of what was pictured on the VRBO site. I will say that they did provide a fix for most of these issues...just took time. For the price, we were very disappointed 😞

Relaxing Week at the Lake

We had a good time at this small cabin on the lake. It was a good size for our family (two adults, two kids 5 and 7). The internet was fast for streaming shows (Took us a bit to figure out the "o" was a zero in the Wi-Fi password, updated signage would help). The couch and love-seat were comfortable as were the beds. The cabin is in a good location in a fairly quiet neighborhood, about a 10 minute drive to Perham. The fishing was decent, once we found the fish (< 7' of water), even for mid-August. A few heads up for future guests:

No Washer or Dryer

This is your basic cabin by the lake. Very quiet. However it shows a Washer and Dryer in the online photos, there are no such things there
