Great lakeside cabin

The cabin had plenty of room for our 50th anniversary celebration with our family! Really enjoyed our time there. Had a wonderful time on Jack’s pontoon. Great place! Would stay there again.

Week Away

Our stay was great! We had a wonderful time, and the property was exactly as shown in pictures and described. Jack was an excellent communicator and was more than willing to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The lake access was perfect, and the pontoon was very nice! We loved it and hope to stay again some time in the future. Thank you!

Great weekend at a wonderful retreat!

Matt and Melissa are wonderful hosts. They are very responsive and I couldn't ask for better people to deal with! The lake didn't have a lot of boating activity and the views are wonderful. If our family doesn't get any bigger we would love to stay again.

Great Lake house

We loved our stay at Battle Creek. The cabin was unique, cozy and immaculate. The location of the cabin to Glendalough State Park, Battle Creek, Ottertail and Perham made it accessible to get food and restaurants. Jack (the owner) made it hard to want to go anywhere else. The had the essentials and made cooking a breeze however most of our nights were spent by the firepit near the lake. All in all it was a great family vacation and we look forward to going back soon!

Lovely, quiet, great stay!

My family of 4 stayed at the A Frame for 6 nights and we had a wonderful stay. The property owner, Melissa, communicated with us from start to finish and responded quickly if we had any questions. She was really kind and wanted to make sure our stay was perfect. They left us a couple of gift cards to some local spots which was really cool. The house is exactly as advertised. So cozy, comfortable, nice and cool, and the beds and linens were comfortable too. The kitchen was well stocked. My 4 year old enjoyed the blocks, toys, and puzzles that were provided. The shed was stocked with floaties, yard games, paddle board, etc which was a really nice bonus. I don’t like coming from out of state and having to constantly buy sand toys, life jackets, and floats so I really appreciated this! The fire pit was awesome and was used by us almost every night. Tons of beach towels were available as well. I think the thing we liked the most was just how quiet it was. No constant noise of yard work/blowers and the lake was filled with jet skis and boats. It was quiet allllll day and we appreciated that so much. Washer and dryer is a must for us and they have a nice set at this place and they had laundry soap/dryer sheets which was nice that I didn’t have to buy that for a short trip. The beach was lovely and very sandy. They have canoes and a paddle boat for use and a ton of sand toys (and a small slide) for the littles. We come to Minnesota every summer to see my family and we always pick a new lake to stay But we were very happy with this place so we’ve already booked for next summer. Fingers crossed it’s just as wonderful next year.

Wedding weekend

We got married this past weekend at the 1910 sip house. The a frame was the perfect place to stay and it offered easy access to our wedding venue, and allowed our kids a place of rest and escape from the busy events.

Peaceful Relaxation at its Best!

The A-Frame Lake Home was absolutely amazing. Very well decorated and stocked with more than we could ever need from the linens and kitchen items to the games and comfy beds and furniture. We loved it and of course we wanted to stay. Plenty of parking and the fishing was great! We will definitely be back! Great Hosts. Many Thanks.

Amazing cabin and host!

We loved our stay at this cabin. The description and pictures of this property not do it justice. Perfect amount of space for 4 adults and 2 kids, it could probably comfortable fit more. The kids always had something to do, one is 3 and the other is 12. They were never board. The communication with the host was wonderful and very helpful. Will definitely stay there again!

Melissa the host is amazing is to work with! She is very responsive to any questions or concerns you have. The cabin is in a great location and completely stocked with everything you need- games, towels, etc. The cabin is super cute and clean with enough bedrooms and baths to accommodate up to 2 families or more. It has a small sandy beach for swimming or fishing off dock, kayaks, canoe and paddle boat. We had a wonderful time staying here and are already booked for next year!

Still Smiling

This Vacation was among the best family time we have had. Mom and Dad, 2 Sons/Daughters in law 3 Grandkids all love this Vacation Home. The A Frame was very well equipped and was just as described. Spending most of our time outside in the large beautiful park like yard. The lake landing/ dock was perfect too. The kids could continually catch little sunfish off the dock and adults caught the larger fish every time out on the lake. We have many relatives living in the Lake Region and they were also very impressed with this property when they came out to visit us. The local area supports family fun and retailers are the greatest. We highly recommend this property and have already rebooked for next year. Don't miss this one.
