The accommodation were clean and had a down home feeling. The location was quiet and peaceful. The check in was seamless. The kitchen was adequate but we didn't have need for a kitchen this time. Would consider staying there again.

We enjoyed our getaway. The cabin was perfect size for the two of us. The river was beautiful, filled with wild rice being close to harvest time. Eric and his dogs are very friendly. With the dogs greeting us each morning. We loved it.

Clean, quiet, friendly! More than we expected; good appliances and appointments. Very nice setting on the Pine River, though at this time of year (July) it appears overgrown with wild rice.

Quit and off the grid

I was in town for the weekend in between some independent contracting jobs. The cabins meet all the basic needs, are quiet, and come with the hosts sweet dogs to say hello.

Loved this little cabin on the river. I would definitely return. It was so peaceful and grounding. The river was gentle flowing and clear . The loudest sound was the frogs. The cabin was spacious enough with all the amenities. The bed was extremely comfortable and sitting area cozy. Owners are kind and accommodating.

Great place to stay

Went there for my 10 year anniversary with my girlfriend. It was just as listed. Great little cabin right on the river. Was an amazing weekend getaway with great views and just plain relaxing. Easy to take the kayaks out onto the river also. The owners were also really friendly and cool people. The cabin was as clean as I would expect a cabin. Had everything we needed as well. Overall it was a great place to stay and we will most likely stay there again.
