ABOUT BIG MCDONALD LAKE
It’s an Awesome lake to go boating & pontoon cruising on with incredible fishing! It’s one of the most prestigious lakes in the area due to the quality of water and sandy bottom swimming.

Also, the cabin is 50 feet from the water, which is almost unheard of nowadays. This means when you sleep at night, you can hear the waves!

Our stay at the Glory Cabin was the perfect up north get away!The Glory Cabin is so family friendly! Our kids loved playing on the swing set across the street while us adults enjoyed pickle ball, volley ball and basketball. The sandy beach that is a few steps out the back door is a great spot for kids to play and we can’t wait to go back when it’s warm enough o swim in the crystal clear water. From the dock we did get to watch a bunch of fish swim in the lake and caught 4 bass within 1 hour! Relaxing in the hot tub was a great way to end the day after playing on the lake with the kids. Sleeping in the beds was restful because they were so comfortable and waking up to a beautiful lake view was unbeatable. Every aspect of the cabin: the rooms, bathrooms, the kitchen, dinning room and living room are perfectly equipped to make every part of the day run smoothly! Everything was so clean and easy to find. Our host Josh responded quickly when we reached out to him and was very kind and helpful. He even suggested a great coffee shop in Perham for us to visit, Gathering Grounds!We also enjoyed watching a variety of birds on the lake: loons, pelicans, ducks; and hearing owls in the woods.I highly recommend booking the Glory Cabin for your next vacation!
