Cabin Getaway

The cabin was cute! Nice to be by a lake, short walk. I will say there are other cabins and houses around you. We were provided a paddle boat and canoe. This made the over all experience fun.

Cabin Sweet Cabin

We enjoyed relaxing at this cozy little cottage in the woods. The cabin was very clean and the bathroom renovation was spectacular. The grounds were well kept with some pretty perennial flowers around the cabin. We enjoyed the small deck with a picnic table for outdoor dining and a fire pit for making s’mores.

Such a peaceful and beautiful property

We had such an amazing stay! Valerie was absolutely incredible, she was great with communicating and accommodated us wanting to get there earlier than check in. The place was so cozy and clean and well stocked with everything you need. The cabin is so secluded you feel like you're in your own world. The lake was down a little trail but so close. The lake was so clean you can see so far down and there's fish everywhere right off the dock there's a nice sandy beach area right next to the boat access. We will definitelybe going up there again!

Family getaway

This was our second stay at this cabin. Once again it was a great quite family getaway. Very minimal lake traffic during the week. Family enjoyed the pedal boat, fishing, swimming, and kayaking. Excellent communication with the property owner. Being pet friendly is a big plus for us.

Peaceful getaway

This cabin was perfect for a weekend getaway. The lake was beautiful and peaceful and the cabin had everything we needed - grill, fire pit, lovely bathroom and perfect sleeping accommodations. We were there over a hot weekend and the AC units in the living room and bedroom were just what was needed to combat the heat. Thanks for everything.

Great little getaway

The owners were very friendly and it was easy to check in and out. The cabin was very clean and the new flooring and new bathroom were beautiful! The a/c was great since we stayed on very hot days. The walk to the lake was short and we had a great time swimming and fishing. The neighbors were very friendly. Great fire pit for s’mores in the evening. We will definitely book this again. Great for families or couples.

Owners frequently go past property

One of the things about Vrbo is that the host is not there. There were many times, drove past the property throughout our stay. There was also misunderstanding in regards to fees,in which were resolved after talking back and fourth for two days which was extremely frustrating.

Clean and cozy!

We spent a long weekend at the cabin -- it was the perfect place to relax and hang out with the family. The guys enjoyed disc golfing in the area and I snuggled onto the couch with my knitting. Property is exactly what we expected from the pictures, very cozy, comfortable, and clean. Check in was a breeze, and Valerie was very easy to work with. We would definitely stay here again. (FYI, we have Verizon and had good cell service.)

Cute cabin in the pines

Cabin was very clean and well kept, with new flooring and a beautiful new bath with stone shower. Stairs to the bedroom are pretty steep, but there are handrails on both sides. Fire pit & surrounding area could use some attention, but still functional and we enjoyed several fires. Very short walk to a small peaceful lake. We enjoyed the paddle boat provided very much. Owners stopped by and were very friendly. We enjoyed our stay very much.

We loved it!

My dog and I very much enjoyed our stay. The place was neat, clean, and held many thoughtful extras. The lake and surrounding woods were just gorgeous. The hosts went above & beyond to ensure I was comfortable.. for example, on noticing my firewood was damp they brought over a special fire-starter log to help me get a flame going. Finally, I so appreciated the dog-friendliness. Aside from just welcoming pets, they had tennis balls, a tie-up, bowls, and waste bags at the cabin. I could not be more pleased with our experience here. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Family Mini-ca

The pictures don’t do the full outdoor property area justice. The yard is very well maintained and usable - bring your Cornhole, ball and glove or frisbee! The trees are mature and peace provoking. Sit on the porch and watch the sunrise with your coffee (bring your own but machine) and take in nature’s beauty. Used the paddle boats for a parent + kid who's gonna get back across the lake from the beach to dock contest. Bring a bag of microwave popcorn and have fun selecting nostalgic DVD favorites when you’re winding down for bedtime. Bring some bottled water if ‘up north’ water or don’t and reminisce on childhood memories and cabin stories. Cozy, comfortable and charming. Drive to the cabin readies you for your deep breath of ‘we’re here it’s time to relax’ getting out of the car mojo…and seals memories in when you head back out. Loved it.

Tranquil Respite in Nature

We enjoyed a memorable, albeit brief, getaway from the Twin Cities. Hiked at Crow Wing State Park, taste-tested some ales at Jack Pine Brewery, and enjoyed ample time underneath the property's massive trees, which laughably rained acorns down on us while we relaxed on the deck. Listened to some songs next to the fireplace for a bit before retiring for the night. AC was great when needed. Loved the owl theme. We very much enjoyed coffee in the living area while we read some literature and got some ideas for some pit stops on the way home (Pine Grove Zoo & Bad Habit Brewing). Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Upset.

I am generally a giving and understanding person. I went out to this property and it was not at all what was expected with no access to the out side world. I was up there taking care of elderly family during there time of need. It was me and my children and no service and what look like industrial area. I had to drive out to text her back and let her know right away with everything going on I have to access to my mother and mother-in-law and I could not accept this stay. During everything going she would not even refund 1/2 the amount and I was not even there. I was told she refunded the cleaning deposit but I still have not received that yet.

About the host

Host profile image
Retired transplant from Lake Tahoe, California. Worked in the hospitality industry all my life.

Why they chose this property

I lived in the cabin for 2 years after retiring here to Minnesota. Got married and live nearby and decided to vacation rental the property instead of selling it. It's my little business now.

What makes this property unique

Turtle Lake is a smaller lake with good fishing but the Lincoln Lakes area is located within 15 minutes east of my cabin where there is Muskie fishing. Golfing is close by too!
