We had a great stay! There was plenty of room for our family and really enjoyed the kayaks provided. We were able to float down the river right from the house- what a fun way to spend a few hours on a hot day. We already rented again for next summer!

The spot was so private and relaxing.all enjoyed the water toys. Even the smallest was able to kayak with the sandy beach area. We were unable to park our 37 ft camper there to many trees for the slide outs and not much room to turn around. Family played games that were there and a fire every night with barbecue. Thank you for sharing your space.

Great Place to Stay on the River!!

Our group of 10 absolutely loved this property! Right on the river where you can swim, tube, canoe, kayak, and boat! This property and house were huge! Plenty of room to hang out inside or out! The house had everything you need for a large group of people! We definitely want to stay here again! In the woods, private yard, amazing river! No complaints!

Fam Damily Vacation 2023

We enjoyed our stay again this year. Even though the river was a little lower than expected the kids still had fun playing. We also went into Menahga to swim at Spirit Lake which has a beautiful beach only 3 miles away. This cabin is close enough to Park Rapids that we were able to take in some tourists' attractions there also.

Annual Family Vacation

Though this home is a bit rustic, it was clean, stocked with fresh water, bedding, towels, etc! And they also provided firewood ( we did bring much of own but when it turned cool, we were glad to have a bit more!). Your thoughtfulness to the little details was commendable! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Fam Damily Vacation 2022

This was our third year staying at Swan's Point as our vacation. Again we had a very relaxing time (as much as you can with an 11th month old baby :) ). The water was high so we were able to dock our boat with no troubles. The kitchen was will stocked with appliances, pans, dishes, etc. for cooking and grilling. Plenty of room both indoors and outdoors for us all (9) to visit and play.

Secluded time away

We had a large group of family, friends, kids and adults, (17 )Ages 4-84. Swan Point was perfect for us…we all made great use of the canoes, kayaks, and row boat, the kids just swimming in the clear, sandy bottom river just off the dock. Going upstream and doing some fishing in the lake. The house was very spacious and had everything and more that we needed. Plenty of space to pitch a couple air mattresses for the extra members in our party. Overall, exactly what we were hoping for, for our group.

We had a great stay at Whispering Pines, the location was fantastic. It was so quiet and beautiful. The river was fun for boating and swimming. The cabin was amazingly well stocked, in the kitchen, we had everything we needed to cook indoors and out. In there were plenty of towels and paper products. Lots of games, puzzles and even toys for the kids. It was very helpful having 2 refrigerators. We enjoyed having a campfire every night. Going into Menahga to the museum, beach and ice cream shop. There was enough room for our large party. The cabin is a bit rustic, with squeaky floors and doors and windows that may not close just right, but that all added to the charm. Everyones favorite place was at the large dining table watching the river and the humming birds, playing games and of course eating!Thanks

About the host

Hosted by Curt

Host profile image
Minnesota-Wisconsin native who returning to the peaceful lands of Minnesota and looking to share our home with those who seek lake, river and nature fun. This property is excellent for a peaceful break from the city and day to day rush of work priorities.

Why they chose this property

Vacationed at this property as a child and have many happy and fulfilling memories. Excited to have the opportunity to return per diem and enjoy "The Great Outdoors". Looking forward to completing upgrades and renovations in the upcoming years.

What makes this property unique

This property is at the Point joining Lower Twin Lake and Shell River. Unique, as it is at the end of the road. No through traffic. Water is deep enough for fishing boats but shallow enough for children and adults to enjoy. A walking path has been maintained around the point for a back to nature experience. Surrounding roads are maintained and groomed dirt/gravel roads. Nearest towns are Menahga and Park Rapids. Local people are welcoming and very pleasant. Nice place to visit!
