Cozy Cabin

Comfotable and cozy cabin on the ski hill. Has all the amenities needed for a feel of home with a northwoods flair. Lots of beds if larger family wants to stay. Only two of us but liked there were 2 full bathrooms. Owner was very responsive to a few issues and took care of immediately and checked back with us to make sure all was handled by her staff. Fall colors were in peak and added an extra bonus to our week stay.

Nice layout and location but needs care

We loved the short walk to the ski hill, the layout with lots of private bedrooms, and how inviting the house is. The owner was easy to communicate with and very accommodating when we had to postpone out trip by 2 weeks. Unfortunately there were several things that really need attention. The couch was broken, with the recliner side unable to lock in an upright position. One set of blinds were missing in the main room, making it very hard to eat at the dining room table with the sun in your eyes. The beds were quite uncomfortable and need to be replaced. We found a pair of pajamas in one of the beds, making it clear the sheets hadn't been washed. The stove's burners had food burned and crusted underneath. There was a fair amount of pet hair in the loft and the dishwasher seems to be wearing out, as several mugs and bowls had bits of food crusted on them. If it weren't for these issues, the house would be great. Hopefully they can be addressed before the next visitors' stay.

Great location, fantastic owners.

My 16-yr old son and I had a great time at Big Powderhorn and thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Mary was very prompt to answer our text questions and went way above and beyond to make sure our stay was awesome. We walked to and from the ski lifts. We went late season so we couldn't ski back to the house due to the lack of snow in the parking lots and on the road. Still, no complaints. We highly recommend this place to make your vacation enjoyable.

Just what we needed

We hadn't stayed at a ski resort off season before but this little place proved to be just what we needed. Quiet, good location, comfortable. Nice owner who, with her team, was responsive and helpful.

Cute, clean, quiet

The cabin was nicely decorated for the holiday season. Super clean and quiet. Our family of four, including adult children, stayed for a ski vacation. We enjoyed the roominess of the cabin with separate spaces for all. Nice, well-equipped kitchen, clean bathrooms, and comfortable beds and furnishings. Could walk to Powderhorn, and an easy drive to Indianhead and Blackjack. Also enjoyed the Wolverine snowshoe trails.

Family weekend getaway

We were looking for one last long weekend before school started. Glad we found this listing. Great location to visit many nearby outdoor activities (hiking, bonfires in the beach). Cabin was super clean and very well equipped. The owner is incredibly kind and helpful. Look forward to returning this winter to ski.

Perfect getaway location

This was the perfect for a relaxing weekend. Close to tons of fun places - we hit up beaches and hiking spots all around. The house was so clean and cozy. Plenty of space for the family to spread out! We look forward to coming back in the winter to ski as the ski lifts and resort are a close walk away. Thank you!

Ping Pong saved our (coronavirus) vacation

No one could have foreseen this when booking last Fall. Three days into our 7 day vacation, Powderhorn closed due to coronavirus concerns. Luckily, my 10 yr old, 7 yr old (& 72 yr old father) found the ping pong table & gear on the morning of day 4 - we had the best time! Spent a day or two skiing at Indianhead (7 minute drive from cabin). Otherwise, walked up Powderhorn (for sledding back down...LOL), sauna, & ping pong championships. The cabin has enough room so we weren't on top of each other. Also, really great internet - two kids and 3 adults all on their devices watching streaming video and no issues. Can't wait to go again!!

Memories

This is a great spot when visiting Powderhorn. It is located at the base of the mountain, next to parking lot off bunny hill. We were able to ski from hill across parking lot to the door. And take in the nightlife at the lodge right next door. Basically, a ski in/out experience. The cabin is very comfortable and everything one would hope for on a ski trip. Large windows that view the hill and ski lift. A giant lofted for the kids to hang. Separate living area with 2bedrooms and bath in basement. This cabin can easily fit (2) families. And the hosts are great. Can't go wrong here
