Very nice place for a family to take a break. Beautiful deck very close to beach. Check in was easy owner answered our question promptly. I highly recommend this family friendly place.
We had everything we needed and more for a relaxing vacation with family. Plenty of amenities and activities inside and out. Great space, clean, and easy to reach host with any questions.
My family had a blast here, in Akeley! There was never a boring moment from pontoon rides to air hockey! The space was clean and the amenities were outstanding.
This was a great place! The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. It was a perfect location for biking on the Heartland and Paul Bunyan trails. It was nice to relax outside on the deck, and you couldn't ask for a better sunset view! Definitely one of the best places we've stayed at!
We have stayed here Twin summers in a row and it is the perfect MN lake retreat.

Great place
Our family had a great stay. Fall colors were spectacular and had a great time playing board games with the family. House, property, and host were great.
We live in the Twin Cities, so the quietness and relaxing atmosphere was a wonderful change of pace. The check-in was smooth, the cabin was very clean, and other than the rainy weather was overall a very good experience for the whole family.

Great location on a wonderful lake
We had a marvelous time on a wonderful lake with beautiful views. Great biking to Walker, Nevis and Park Rapids on the bike path that is pretty much out the front door. Lots of sunnies and bass to catch off the dock and wonderful kayaking and floating on the lake.The cabin was perfect for our needs and we highly recommend staying here.
The cabin had all the amenities we needed, the campfire was stocked, the lake accessories were perfect. We say the Northern lights the first night of our stay and we laid on the dock for two hours to watch them. the location was perfect for the trails. The view from the deck was beautiful and it was so peaceful. We will definitely be back again.
Great size for our family of four. We had WAY more than enough room. Cozy home with everything you could possibly need and more. Owner was akways available for questions. Highly recommend!
Everything was perfect!! The place was clean! It had everything we needed. We brought up our side by side, there was plenty of room to park the trailer as well. The communication was so easy!
Had a fantastic time, family, friends fishing and just all around a great time. Place was perfect for our needs, had all the amenities and more one could ask. Host went the extra mile to see we had everything we needed. Will be back same time next year
It was a great week at the lake! The cabin had every amenity you could possibly need. It was in a great location, was quiet and had plenty of privacy. We enjoyed being so close to the Heartland Trail also. The deck was our favorite part and we spent a good portion of our stay on the deck reading and enjoying the views.
We greatly appreciated being able to bring our dogs along for a week at the lake also.
