This was our second stay in Deer River - we love it! The house is clean, well stocked and in a great location. Close to shopping if needed but far enough away to feel disconnected. Little Bowstring Lake is great for fishing and kayaking. Also great for bird watching - eagles, trumpeter swans, loons, orioles...morning coffee on the patio was lovely. Hosts are wonderful to communicate with and very responsive. Highly recommend!

Wonderful time at this beautiful, very clean and well maintained cabin. Everything is so neat and organized! We enjoyed the yard, patio, dock, kayaks, etc. The beds are comfy, the living and dining room were great to hang out and the kitchen was well stocked with all the necessities.

Fantastic lake home!!!

From the request to stay to checking out- everything was smooth with this cabin and owners!! This cabin is great for families with children or just an adult to get away like we had! Lots of space and cleanliness was top notch! The master shower- wow! I want one for home now!! Peaceful Lake- fishing was just okay- it was pretty warm outside, very thankful for the floaties they had for us to use!! We will rent again!!
