Lovely end of summer stay
Another wonderful stay. We had a family get together for my husband’s milestone birthday and the cabin fit our family of 7 adults 1 tween (who played PlayStation till the wee hours of the night)and two pups fantastic. The flies were plentiful but you can’t exactly control Mother Nature. I feel we will be back again next year if possible.

Peaceful, beautiful and restful
This property was beautiful inside and out everything was perfect. Smart tv's in the bedrooms and living room worked great. Our dogs loved going on walks on the property and hunting for squirrels and other critters. The lake was picture perfect. I was strssed before going from a busy job, but left well rested. Thank you for sharing your lovely lake home! a.great stay!

Getaway to the lake
Very comfortable and well equipped home making our vacation relaxing and restful. The quiet cove of Lake Mille Lacs made for a small lake neighborhood vibe. Even met some of the neighbors who were very pleasant and welcoming.

Perfect Christmas Stay
My family stayed here for our Christmas celebrations, and it was perfect! There was enough space for 7 adults and a young toddler, and we enjoyed playing card games, puzzles, and cooking meals together. We even went on a walk around the neighborhood. We will be back again!

Cabin Provided Comfort Despite the Fog and Lack of Fishing :)
Went to try and ice fish and unfortunately it was foggy the whole trip and the ice was too slippery due to rain. The cabin provided a nice place to relax and enjoy unplugging from home. Beds are comfortable and the cabin had what was needed.

Perfect Thanksgiving Get Away
It was just what we wanted for our family to come together for Thanksgiving. We brought our holiday dinner and had no problem cooking it in the well stocked kitchen. Set up our annual jigsaw puzzle, and yes, we found their card table!! The kids had plenty of room to play and remained occupied for the whole two days. Highly recommend.

Your family had a wedding up by Lake Mille Lacs and we wanted to stay somewhere then the usual hotels. We wanted to make a vacation out of it. The property we stayed on exceeded those expectations. The owner was awesome to communicate with, the process was smooth, and the place was amazing. Thank you

GREAT LOCATION
This spacious home is easily accessible from the cities. The Bayview Bar and Grill is within walking distance and offers great food. The owner has everything you could ask for in the kitchen (loved the coffee bar -well stocked with treats and coffee.) The beds were comfy and there are plenty of blankets and pillows. The red, white and blue decor is lovely. Walk across the road to the private dock (the string of lights is on in the evenings.) Nice fire pit in the back yard, it was raining when we were there, so it was a shame we didn't use it. We caught dozens of fish, (sunfish, perch and bass) but they we too small to keep. I would recommend this property to couples and families!

Great Property/Great Property Owner
We had such a wonderful time at this property. It was only about 90 mins from the Twin Cities. The lake was right across from the house with a dock for easy access. The location is in a cove so you are protected from the stong winds that Mille Lacs can whip up. Our friends had a great time paddleboarding. The house was very clean with a well appointed kitchen. The property owner was so easy to work with and never took longer than 5-10 minutes to respond to our inquiries which we really appreciated. The only thing we found was that one of the bedrooms on the first floor actually has a Queen bed now rather than the Twin/Full bunk beds in the listing. It worked out for us so no worries. We would visit this property again in the future.

Great place!
Home was beautiful. Fishing dock was nearby. Quiet area.Neighbors were friendly. Would stay there again. Dave I think I left my pancake pan at your place. It’s a flat pan, about 10x10, non stick. Don’t think I can live without it!! If it’s there, we’ll have to arrange some kind of pick up. Thanks!! Robin

This was the perfect cabin for a halfway meeting point for our Northern MN and metro lifelong friends! It has great open concept space for visiting and nice sitting spaces for quiet times. Clean, cozy, and welcoming. It's in a great little neighborhood for walks and also walking distance from a neat little bar and grill.

About the host

Hosted by Dave Peterson

Host profile image
We live an hours drive west of the lake home and have spent many wonderful summers and winters at our home away from home. We cherish our time together at 'the cabin'.

Why they chose this property

This property was purchased to be near longtime friends and because we fell in love with the area and all it has to offer. Our children spend countless hours fishing off the dock and the cabin is accessible to so many different places. We enjoy all activities at nearby Izaty's Resort and love that we are so close but have our own home to go back to. Bayview Bar and Grill, a block away, has great food.

What makes this property unique

We tore down the original 'fishing shack' in 2003 and built the new log style cabin in 2004. It has been a true labor of love. We are especially proud of our beautiful gas fireplace. We enjoy the peaceful nights at the cabin and love all the activities during the day.
