Beautiful Cabin

This is a gorgeous cabin which is very private. It has all of the necessary kitchen and bathroom stuff. The kitchen is nice and large. We really enjoyed our raft trip on the Pine River and none of us got wet!

Great Getaway

We had such a great stay at the North Country Cabin! The secluded location was so relaxing, and the numerous hiking trails were so much fun. The house itself was very nice and fairly clean. The kitchen is large and has pretty much all necessary amenities. The listing is accurate in saying you will need a FWD vehicle to get to the cabin. It rained during our stay and even in our truck it was a little sketchy getting out. The cell service is also non-existent, but the wifi worked just fine (besides during the storm). The only thing was that the wifi password was written down incorrectly in the house. Thankfully Kiefer was quick to get back to us with the correct wifi password. If I could make a suggestion- it would be nice if there was some kind of written packet of sorts that listed out details of the house (like the wifi password, etc) and also the cleaning responsibilities required before checkout (with the storm knocking the wifi out we wernt able to access the VRBO message detailing the checkout requirements until only 25 minutes beforehand). All in all, it was an amazing stay and we can’t wait to come back again in the future!

Cute little cabin

Super relaxing & a great place to have your pup. Beautiful scenery all around with no disturbances. Stocked with dishes & everything you would need to cook meals. Highly recommend this cabin if you’re looking for a place to unwind in the middle of no where.
