Winter Holiday

Beautiful lakefront home in a classic north woods setting gave our family a place to come together away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We enjoyed the home, playing hockey on the lake and its proximity to wonderful nearby towns. We would recommend the property and hosts and hope to be back again!

Perfect family weekend!

We loved our long weekend here! Our favorites were tubing on the pontoon, kiddos playing on the dock, sitting by the fire and roasting smokies and s’mores, grilling dinners, cooking breakfast in the amazing kitchen, drinking coffee in the living room looking at the lake, going for long walks, and just enjoying time with family.

Mountain Bike and Lake Retreat

Perfect location and cabin for a friends/family mountain bike trip. Ride to all the local trails, bike/coffee shops, restaurants and shopping. End your day on the perfect patio overlooking the lake and watching the ducks, eagles and loons or enjoy a sunset cruise on the pontoon.

Home on pristine lake

This lake home comfortably slept the 7 of us and included many amenities including a dishwasher and 2 washers and dryers (particluarly appreciated the iphone charger). The highlight of our stay was boating and swimming on the pristine lake. We were in the area for a wedding so would like to return when our time isn't so limited to fully enjoy this property. Of note the stairs to the upper bedrooms are steep and spiral a bit and may be difficult for the very young or very old. couplevofchoursc

Great cabin near downtown and bike trails

My family had a lovely stay at this cabin! The cabin was clean, comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. The patio is a beautiful place to sit and look over the lake and make a fire. We rented the pontoon which made for perfect boating/swimming/tubing days on the lake. We appreciated the location near downtown Crosby and easy biking distance to the Cuyuna trails. We hope to stay here again!

Fantastic Cabin on Serpent Lake

We had an awesome weekend at Matt's place on Serpent lake. I've stayed in many rentals, and comparatively this was extremely well stocked with plenty of supplies in the kitchen, garage, boat house, you name it. There was even leftover food and drinks (unopened of course), plenty of seasonings and all of the small incidentals that you seem to forget to pack. We were there for an extended weekend with my family, two nephews (children), and there was plenty of space. My wife and I stayed in the boathouse which was perfect for us to have some privacy and not feel like we were all on-top of each other. The only bonus would've been if there was a bathroom, but it was still great! We were able to rent the pontoon and had an awesome time on the lake. The boathouse was also stocked with plenty of extra floaties, fishing poles, tubes, etc. We had a great time in both Deerwood and Crosby. Everything is only a 5 minute drive and you can also dock the boat in town and walk around. We would highly recommend and will likely be going back! Also, Matt was extremely communicative and responsive. Great host!

Beautiful lakeside home and ideal location

Perfect fit for our family of 6 with the boathouse bedroom overlooking the lake. Stayed there over an October weekend while attending a wedding nearby, and met all of our needs. Beautiful home on lake, although due to cold and wet weather (certainly no fault of our hosts), we were unable to take advantage of the water. However, plenty of potential for fun lakeside and outdoor activities while on vacation or a weekend getaway.

Absolutely lovely!

This has to be one of cleanest and most beautiful properties I've ever been to. Pictures don't do the justice. Property is even more beautiful than on picture. Plenty of space inside cabin and gorgeous outdoors. We used pantoon, went fishing and swimming. Enjoyed firepit and felt very cozy and relaxed. Highly recommend! Matt the owner is a wonderful host and very responsive and pleasant to talk to. We'll definitely be back!

Perfect Father and Sons Fishing Weekend

The trip to the boundary waters was cancelled due to excessive flooding so we were scrambling to find another location for my dad and brothers to go for my dad's 70th birthday trip. We lucked out in finding this property last minute. It perfectly accommodated 6 men and provided ample outdoor enjoyment. Great fishing right off the dock, nightly use of the fire pit, and the pontoon boat made for a fun and relaxing weekend of fishing and father-son memories. Matt was a wonderful host and great to work with. Very communicative and responsive. Our family will absolutely be back!

Beautiful Cabin and Nice Property

This was a beautiful cabin! Very clean and well stocked. We had a group of 11 ages 16 and up. We all fit at the kitchen table. Table was nice for cards and games in the evening. Beautiful view of the lake from both the cabin and the patio. Stairs in the cabin leading to upper bedrooms are quite steep, so our senior parents slept in the master bedroom. My husband caught a 4.25 lb walleye, but large sunfish are scarce. Lots of large mouth and rock bass. Overall, very nice cabin and I would recommend staying here.

Such a great cabin to rest and regroup after a day of biking. There was plenty of room to find a comfy chair outside on your own in the morning with a cup of coffee as well as gather with others around the fire at night or gather in the sun on the beautiful and spacious dock. Thanks for a great weekend getaway spot!

Wonderful stay and beautiful views

We had a great time during our stay. The location was perfect for all of the outdoor activities we wanted to do - snowshoe, xc ski, fat bike. The cabin was very cozy and the views were the best part! Matt was great to work with and super accommodating. We had 3 adults and 3 kids and the space was great for our family. The boathouse is an added bonus! We hope to come back in the summertime to experience all the location has to offer. Great outdoor space to use on this property.

Great cozy stay

Rented the place with a few friends to go fat tire biking. We had a blast. Kitchen is well equiped beds were comfy, view out the window is lovely. We went skiing on the lake and at a trail near by too. Close to everything but not near any busy roads. Seems like it would be even cooler in the summer with the lake to play in. Would rent again.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Prigge

Host profile image
We are a pre-retirement couple with 2 kids working and working on a PhD. We live and work in the Rochester MN area. I was born in the Rochester area and met Ann while at college. She was raised in the Lakes area of MN near lake Mille Lacs about 30 miles from our cabin. We are looking forward to retiring in the area and calling it home Vs our get a way place. Until then we are happy to host and share our place with those that also appreciate the quiet and beauty of the lake setting. We truly hope that you enjoy your stay and ask that you call or email with any questions or issue that should arise before or during your stay.

Why they chose this property

My wife had been looking for the right place for over a year. - No weeds, no mud, not too many steps to climb up or down when we get old etc. When we drove by my wife recognized it from earlier listings she had seen. It was, for us, the perfect setting and had the potential that we were looking for.

What makes this property unique

One of the few places with split field stone retaining walls and foundations. Also the Boathouse is an added plus since you cannot build them anymore, only maintain the ones that already exist. As I have mentioned, it is one of the cleanest lakes you will ever experience. No resorts or supper clubs on the lake make it very quiet. Views of the lake are available from 3 of the 5 sleeping rooms.
