Cozy apartment with unique charm

I enjoyed a snowy weekend getaway here. It has a warm and homey atmosphere, especially with the gas fireplace. The decor is folksy and charming. The bed is really soft and comfy. And the host is super friendly!

Awesome cabin vacay

Great place to relax. Has all the cabin-esque stuff, as well as modern amenities. The lake is beautiful and sometimes it’s nice to just sit on the dock with your feet in the water. This is the way to vacation. Bring some groceries, grill some food, and relax.

Deer River Apt.

The property is very welcoming and charming. The hostess is kind and courteous, her space is fun and very functional. There was a hot tub right outside our door on a private patio, the firepit halfway between the home and the lake. The dock is a wonderful place to begin your morning with a cup of coffee. I would certainly stay there again.

Deer River Stay

We so enjoyed our stay ! The apartment is very nice with a cozy cabin feel. The view of the lake and autumn colors were vibrant! We especially enjoyed afternoon/evening campfires. Jeannie checked us in and made sure we were comfortable.....also offered information about colorful scenic drives and hiking trails. I would recomend a stay at her apartment if youre in the Northern MN area !! :)

Cute lower-level apartment

We were looking for a place to stay near the lakes in Grand Rapids and this was perfect. We fished Deer Lake and Trout Lake and had a great time. I would say the bed and the pull-out are not comfortable; perhaps a foam pad for the pull-out bed would help as the bars dig in. There were foam pads on the bed but the mattress itself wasn't great. All in all, I would stay here again as the view was spectacular and the host was friendly and helpful.

An absolute gem! A Northern Minnesota Beauty

This lovely, cozy place is exactly what a person needs if they love northern Minnesota, enjoy being around lakes and need to escape and relax a bit. That being said, bring a jacket or sweatshirt- it can get cool at night even in the summer. Growing up and around Minnesota lakes my entire life, I've never seen a more beautiful lake then Deer Lake where this get away resides. Enjoy a dip in the cool lake, fish or glide across the lake in kayaks. The rental looks exactly like the pictures and has everything needed to make dinners in or outside grill options. Enjoy a little walk around the property noting beautiful native plants and flowers. The owner is magnificent. She is friendly, courteous and very welcoming. We plan to return next summer and hopefully stay longer.

Loved this quiet, scenic property on Deer Lake in MN. Crafty decorations, separate bedroom, spa like bathroom, full kitchen, very comfotable front room/sitting room with amazing view of lake and great outdoor space with eating and lounging areas. My oasis before meeting up with family staying at other cottages on the lake. Welcoming and friendly host. I booked again for next year.
