Cute lower-level apartment

We were looking for a place to stay near the lakes in Grand Rapids and this was perfect. We fished Deer Lake and Trout Lake and had a great time. I would say the bed and the pull-out are not comfortable; perhaps a foam pad for the pull-out bed would help as the bars dig in. There were foam pads on the bed but the mattress itself wasn't great. All in all, I would stay here again as the view was spectacular and the host was friendly and helpful.

An absolute gem! A Northern Minnesota Beauty

This lovely, cozy place is exactly what a person needs if they love northern Minnesota, enjoy being around lakes and need to escape and relax a bit. That being said, bring a jacket or sweatshirt- it can get cool at night even in the summer. Growing up and around Minnesota lakes my entire life, I've never seen a more beautiful lake then Deer Lake where this get away resides. Enjoy a dip in the cool lake, fish or glide across the lake in kayaks. The rental looks exactly like the pictures and has everything needed to make dinners in or outside grill options. Enjoy a little walk around the property noting beautiful native plants and flowers. The owner is magnificent. She is friendly, courteous and very welcoming. We plan to return next summer and hopefully stay longer.

Jeanie, the owner was really nice and welcoming. My favorite part was sitting in the hot tub with the door open so I could see the fire place lit up. Super secluded and private.

Great Getaway

Perfect vacation! Peaceful, beautiful, setting with a wonderful hostess. Quiet evenings listening to the Loons and the wind in the trees is the best environment one could hope for to forget your troubles. Jean was a wonderful, accommodating, interesting hostess. Everything was as advertised. This is an ideal location for decompressing and renewing your health, physical and mental.

Early March

We were fortunate enough to have warmer temperatures, clear skies and a full moon for our trip. It went fast, however we were able to walk the dogs around the cabin and on the lake.

Loved this quiet, scenic property on Deer Lake in MN. Crafty decorations, separate bedroom, spa like bathroom, full kitchen, very comfotable front room/sitting room with amazing view of lake and great outdoor space with eating and lounging areas. My oasis before meeting up with family staying at other cottages on the lake. Welcoming and friendly host. I booked again for next year.

PERFECT WINTER GETAWAY

Wife, dog and I booked this rental for a couple days before heading up to LOTW for a fishing trip. This cabin getaway was exactly what we needed, especially for my wife (25 wk pregnant). Very private, clean, spacious and relaxing. Whether it be the awesome kitchen, MASSIVE tub or fireplace next to the TV, we didn't want to leave. Jean was a great host and even came down to meet us and the dog. Very nice woman! 10/10, 5 Stars, 100% reccomend. Will be back.
