I think the property is very new. Everything was really clean and comfortable. The owners were very accommodating for anything we needed. The ice cream shop was a added bonus for the kids.

Location was incredible!

We were able to walk to the Headwaters of the Mississippi! The walk was 1.5 miles away and this was key as we could have the headwaters to ourselves at certain times. We came up to see this as do many tourists around the world, but for us we could walk there and enjoy the peace and quiet. I would highly recommend Big Timbers as the best location, great communication and comfortable.
