Perfect conditions.

It was a beautiful week when we stayed. This has been the 4th year we have stayed here and the fishing has been awesome and the cabin always clean at a very reasonable rate for what you get. Book early because this is a diamond of the north.

Perfect for our family

We stayed here while visiting Voyageurs and it was perfect for our family. We enjoyed swimming and kayaking in the lake, and I was even able to photograph the northern lights from the yard one night. Thanks!

Loved the stay!

This cabin was perfect for our family. It is right on a lake that was not busy at all. The fire pit allowed us to have an all-day fire and simply enjoyed our time. The water level was too low to get the boats out so that was a bummer but we enjoyed the kayaks. The regular trains that went by actually created a reminder that we were not so secluded. We had a great time!

Best get-a-way cabin ever!

Thank you so much Randy and Cathy! Our stay was wonderful! Your efforts to make us feel at home was so appreciated! The cabin was lovely ( nice and clean), the fishing was awesome( my boys caught so many I lost count) and the setting could not have been more perfect(quite and peaceful, with the exception of a few trains)! We are all looking forward to our next visit! Highly recommend for any family looking for a north woods get away!

Always a great time!

This was our second year staying here and it’s awesome. Great location, fishing was a little slower this year but I think the extreme heat and a cold front at the end of the week played a part. We still caught 3 meals of fish, daughter caught a real nice 21” walleye and some real slabber sunnies! My wife, 15 year old daughter, my mother and mother in law were all very comfortable and made some great memories. Planning on returning next year!!!😊

Perfect Lakeside cabin

Very nice little guest cabin tucked in the woods. Option to rent the boat they have or not, which helped us out a lot for keeping our daily options open on where and when we wanted to fish. My only complaint is the pontoon died several times out in the water but good news is that it always restarted for us after a bit. I did have to jump in the water to avoid hitting one shoreline, but after it died that last time, we fished for awhile and didn’t turn it off again until we were back at the boat dock a few hours later. No other problems beyond that. Great place overall.

Nice Cabin, very good experience overall

Had a very good experience here at the property. Everything was clean, nice, and comfortable. Only big concern is there are no wi-fi services in this cabin. Zero. Cannot connect to wi-fi at all so our family could not use our laptops for work or online school. In the future, the cabin should have its own routers/wifi so family can able to connect.

Lovely cabin

The cabin is very nice and is a comfortable cozy place, highly recommend. Really nice to be surrounded by a well decorated and appealing building structure. Everything is there. Only items to address would be a working fan or air conditioner upstairs as shown in the image. But the temp was fine for us in July. And the internet was not working but I don't use that anyways. And a few minor door and window maintenance issues to address.

Overall it was a great time, just quite a few disappointments

The property was beautiful! The views were amazing! It was nice and quiet (except the trains which can’t be avoided). It just needs some TLC and I would have gave it a higher rating. The patio door was broken (from the reviews I was reading it’s been broken since 2020) the light above the dining room table did not work, some light bulbs were burnt out, the shower door leaked, outside maintenance wasn’t done until after we arrived, the fishing boat they advertise was unusable) even after someone “cleaned” the water out. The outside grill was a bit sketchy. But all in all we did have a great time fishing off the dock.

Nice Place, Cleaning People, Not Efficient!!

Outside appearance looks great. Bathroom had hair in the sink. Air conditioner was not installed properly and we swatted mosquitos for 2 nights. Fireplace doesn't work and heat is controlled by owner remotely. Had a couple mice running around the cabin, caught 1. Nice place, just needs some more attention to detail!!!

A wonderful paradise in MN

We loved this stay! We were fortunate to be able to book this for 17 days with our two sons and dogs. We enjoyed the beautiful lake kayaking, fishing, swimming, taking the pontoon out and ongoing use of the fishing boat. The property is completely remote, but then again the main road is not far to go wherever you wish to go on outings. We enjoyed traveling into to Canada just about an hour away, going to Cook's Country Connection (petting zoo), Voyageurs National Park (we saw a Grey Wolf there!), eating at a local restaurant in Orr and finding area parks to take our dogs. We also visited Ely, MN, and that was a great trip too! Visiting Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary is an absolute must - just awesome. We grocery shopped a few times in Orr, Hibbing and Virginia, and this was fun to drive around to see Northern MN. Overall, our hosts were wonderful, and we had everything we needed. We were completely impressed by how they had the home stocked with what we needed for the basics. Simply a wonderful vacation for a quiet getaway. I brought a screened in pod as well and was able to really enjoy reading outside too a little safer from the mosquitoes! We also had a black bear visit every now and again. We read up on bear safety, and this gave us plenty to talk about during our trip! Thanks to the hosts so much for sharing their home with us. We really enjoyed chatting with both Randy and Cathy!

Lots of pros, a few cons

Let's start with the pros: This cabin is so charming and is situated with a great view of Ash Lake, with plenty of yard space for play, pets, etc. It's well-furnished and very comfortable, with a great open floorplan in the kitchen/dining/living area, which we loved. Cons: As mentioned in other reviews, there are train tracks nearby. With windows closed it's not a big deal (I'm a very light sleeper and woke up to the horn a few times but fell back asleep quickly) but you will absolutely not be able to sleep through the night if you open the windows; it's just too loud. This wasn't much of an issue for us as the Fall nights were cool, but could be a problem in the summer. The gas fireplace wouldn't work for us, which was a bit of a bummer because it's the focal point of the living room and, as mentioned, temps dropped at night. As mentioned in other reviews, the shower transitions rapidly from icy cold to scalding hot, with little room in between to jump under the water and get clean at a comfortable temperature. Not the biggest deal if you are mentally prepared for it; but don't expect to have a nice relaxing shower. And, in the interest of full disclosure, though the cabin was very clean we saw two mice inside during our 3-night stay (and fresh mouse poop in a few places). We kept all our food in a big rubbermaid container and were careful about keeping the kitchen clean and doors shut, but the little guys were still in there. There are a few traps around the house but none of them were triggered during our stay. Overall we really liked this cabin, but with a few fixes (mice, shower, fireplace) it could go from a nice place to a FANTASTIC place!
