About this property

Quiet Shell River Cabin with Sauna

Our Cozy little cabin is the perfect getaway for all seasons. The sauna is an extra treat. The property is close to the tiny town of Osage and the Smokey Hills State Forest. The Shell River runs through the property providing the perfect relaxing background at the campfire. The large oaks provide beautiful green shade in the summer, an array of orange & yellow in the fall and a beautiful place for the frost and snow to settle in the winter.

Relaxing!
This was such a great place to truly kick back and relax! It was comfortable having all you needed to enjoy a "home away from home." The sauna was a bonus to help a person unwind. There was a great selection of movies with a kitchen, which had everything to prep a fantastic meal. It was simply a fun place to stay. Would love to come back again!

Cozy Cabin!
The property was very clean and welcoming, and it had everything we needed for a great stay. The cabin felt very spacious and had an amazing movie collection, with plenty of blankets and a comfy couch to settle into. The sauna was especially great because it was -21 degrees during our stay! The bed was very firm for our liking, but that’s a personal preference. Also, there were many neighbors close by that weren’t apparent in the listing, and most of the windows don’t have coverings. Overall, a phenomenal stay and we would come back anytime!

Perfect cozy, relaxing cabin!
We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin to celebrate our one-year anniversary. The property was peaceful, well-maintained, and surrounded by beautiful winter scenery. The cabin had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway, and we especially enjoyed the fire pit area for grilling and relaxing, even in the cold weather. It’s a perfect retreat for anyone looking to escape and enjoy nature.Overall, this cabin provided a memorable and relaxing experience, and we would love to return in the future.

Just WOW.
This place is 100% the perfect peaceful retreat. Close to many beautiful attractions if adventure is what you seek. Quiet and secluded if hunkering down to get away from the daily grind is what you seek. The cabin has everything you need. The property grounds are well maintained and even the neighbors were quiet. The sauna is the icing on the cake! We will certainly be back!

Perfect Honeymoon Getaway!
We had such a relaxing cozy stay at this little cabin oasis! My husband and I retreated here after a crazy wedding weekend and we had everything we needed for a private and calm honeymoon. This location is a nice distance from city/town life but also close enough to venture out and explore some cool sites and excursiones. Would recommend to anyone looking for a go with your own flow nature retreat

About the host

Hosted by Deana Deitchler

Host profile image
Hello, I am a Park Rapids resident. I lived near Park Rapids as a child and moved back to the area to raise my family. the house just South of the River Cabin is where my husband, Kelly and I raised our children until 2004. I owned and operated Dogs Paw near Park Rapids for 14 years. This cabin has a fun history, and we love sharing the property with guests so that you can experience the relaxing environment.

Why they chose this property

I love this place for the large oak trees and the peaceful river. The location is close to the Smokey Hills State Forest, Straight Lake, Park Rapids and about a 25–30-minute drive to Itasca State Park.

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is a bit rustic on the outside and very clean, cozy and convenient on the inside. The large oak trees provide shade and beauty year-round.
