About this property

Quaint seclusion, steps from the backwaters of the Mississippi.

This quaint cabin rests on the backwaters of the Mississippi, minutes from beautiful downtown Red Wing, Mn and 45 min from the Twin Cities.

Enjoy the serenity of an early morning sunrise on the deck, walk along the water or a nighttime bonfire. This place is a perfect get away for folks who love the outdoors or that just need a beautiful destination to relax.

This cabin features a queen bed and a futon in the living room that folds into a double bed. You can enjoy steaks on the grill or have the convenience of pizza delivery. Walk down to the riverside fire pit and enjoy s'mores around the fire.

Fishing enthusiasts, bring a pole or even land your boat on the beach. The back channel boat landing is mere 2 miles away. Splash the boat and pull right up to shore. The backwaters are also a great place to paddle kayaks or a canoe.

Note: Our cabin is located on Mississippi River floodplain. If you are booking April/May or Oct/Nov there is a small chance that your stay may be affected by river level. We monitor river levels and will provide you with that information ASAP. The cabin is not affected by flash floods, only by slow rising of the Mississippi River.

Beautiful
This was our 3rd stay at the bungalow and it won't be our last. It is a perfect little retreat, giving us the privacy we want while still being close enough to Red Wing to enjoy the activities that it offers.

Perfect Weekend Getaway
The location is perfect for a quiet weekend on the river. Some of the property was flooded due to recent heavy rain but the hosts kept me updated and did the best they could considering the conditions. Highly recommend.

Great cabin
We had a blast during our weekend stay. Nice cabin with a great view of the Mississippi River. Great for sitting along the shore on one of the swinging benches, staying inside playing board games, or taking a short drive into Red Wing to take in the sites or have a great meal. The hosts were great and would recommend this to anyone.

Beyond perfect!
This place is amazing! Very clean, stocked with all you'll need for a great trip, updated with nice TVs and wifi. The outdoor areas are adorable, well kept, and the dock for fishing within steps of the bungalow was awesome. Annie answered any and all questions we had, and gave plenty of clear instructions on checking in and out. She also gave us some great recommendations for places to eat, we ate at both places and they were amazing! We will be back!!
