Stories from the community

2022 Updates! More space, organization, games, yoga, and more!

1 night at Tumbleweed Base Camp

So many deer! I got in late, but David still greeted me and gave me a tour and was incredibly accomodating. Its a beautiful calm spot to spend time when you're alone, but if you go in season, I could see it as a fun bustling spot to make new friends.

Weekend Trip to Bundo's Cabin

The detail designs of this property and cabin were brilliant! Everything felt so welcoming and peaceful. I will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to The Oaks at Oakwood Farm

Beautiful camping spots at the back of their farm, which is fun to drive through and see the different animals. Very secluded and Jon is great. Answers messages on the app quickly but has never bothered me. This is the second time I’ve camped here and definitely recommend it.

Nice place Chelsi. Thanks for the hospitality and great communication.

Weekend Trip to The Wooded Retreat/breakfast/spa

This tiny cabin was so cozy! The heaters kept the cabin so warm, even though the night we stayed was cold and rainy. We loved that there was coffee and everything we needed to make it right there in the cabin. The breakfast was such a generous touch. Overall, this was SUCH a great getaway, even on a cold spring weekend.

2 nights at Gilles Family Dairy & Woodland

Love the wood stove and outdoor cooking firepit! Mike was AMAZING! The cows and dogs were super cute. The trails were beautiful and very hilly! Honestly they're very private sites also! Bed was comfy, deck was perfect - I enjoyed watching the bird feeder. Really a super great energy here. Would definitely go back!

Weekend Trip to Trails End Retreat

We had an amazing early-season stay at Blueberry Lane campsite in Hinckley, MN! The moment the road was passable by truck and trailer, we headed out—and it was well worth it. The campsite was clean, secluded, and absolutely beautiful. It felt like our own little slice of peaceful Minnesota wilderness. Our hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. You can tell they really care about the land and the experience they're offering. If you're looking for a quiet, nature-filled getaway, this is the place. We’ll definitely be back for another visit this summer!

Weekend Trip to Bundo's Cabin

This is a really cute place. Worth checking out for a quick trip and forest bathing!

Weekend Trip to Bundo's Cabin

Perfect woods getaway to reset. Record player, neat books, sounds of wildlife… the dog was so happy too!

Weekend Trip to Aefintyr

We had a wonderful family weekend in Cabin #3! The kids especially enjoyed the hammock chairs underneath the cabin. The inside was thoughtfully designed and very comfortable, and having a mini fridge and microwave was a nice bonus. The bathrooms were very clean and convenient, too. Chelsi was very responsive and friendly - a great host. We'll definitely be back for another stay!

Weekend Trip to The Wooded Retreat/breakfast/spa

We loved staying at the Wild West cabin! The host was super responsive and helpful. It was stocked with everything we forgot to bring, from coffee to olive oil. We drove up to banning state park for a beautiful hike.

3 nights at Bundo's Cabin

This was an amazing trip. The cabin is so cozy and has everything you need for a successfully relaxing trip. The cubbies of books and all the misc special extras outside really make a difference! Highly recommend and will definitely be back! Thanks again!

Weekend Trip to Bayberry Acres on Danger Lake

Gary & Kathryn's place is fabulous! Just what we needed for an overnight retreat. Cozy and comfortable, with all the necessities.

We had a lovely visit! Debbie and Paul are very responsive and friendly. Our cabin was cozy warm in the coldest of weather and we had everything we needed/wanted. What a lovely retreat! We’ll definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Gilles Family Dairy & Woodland

Rock Bottom Cabin exceeded our expectations in every way. If you don’t like long reviews, then just go ahead and book it - you’ll love it. We were bummed to only be able to stay one night but plan on returning. It’s hard to know where to even begin! Firstly, communication with Mike, our host was excellent. He shared a thorough message of what to except upon arrival, clear directions. When we arrived to his property, we were greeted by many curious cows and then he promptly greeted us on his tractor. With 2-4 inches of snow in the forecast, Mike suggested he give us a ride down to the cabin, rather than us driving our RAV4. We felt confident, but he wanted us to be safe and ultimately glad he offered us the ride. Bonus for a fun tractor ride sitting in the bucket up front. The site is situated on a flat clearing in the woods, surrounded by large oaks and maples, very peaceful. He walked us through the cabin, its amenities, directions on the wood stove and highlighting hiking trails on the paper map he printed for us. From then we were left alone, enjoying the miles of trails around the site. We hiked for about 2.5 hours until sundown and 2 hours in the morning and were able to cover a decent amount of the trails. The hikes were beautiful and all offered their own experiences, views, etc. The cabin was extremely clean, very well constructed and comfortable. We’ve stayed in similar cabins that have bugs or rodents or air gaps but this is built very nicely - not even draft

Weekend Trip to The Wooded Retreat/breakfast/spa

Loved the Wooded Retreat, it was a cozy little cabin set in the woods. The stars at night were incredible, and the hosts were amazing!

3 nights at New Hartford trout camp

Awesome place to stay. Beautiful land and such a nice getaway into nature. We definitely recommend and will be back!

3 nights at 16 Squared Cabin

Great stay! The snow blocked the sign to the road but Amanda was helpful in getting us back on track. Once we were there the cabin was exactly what you could ask for. Warm cabin surrounded by gorgeous scenery blanketed in snow.

1 night at Trails End Retreat

It was peaceful, safe and well maintained. The owners were great. I bought some eggs for breakfast and some firewood. I'm definitely coming back.

Velkommen to Norske Camp!

5 sites · RVs, Tents8 acres · Backus, MN

I bought this land near Pine River in August 2018. I wanted to have my own hunting land and something that was close to town and trails. A property that had a potential of multi-recreational use for people to enjoy while visiting. There are about 40 acres of county land surrounding three sides of the property. The main trail on my land goes thru the majority of the county land and loops back connecting to my main trail again.

Tumbleweed Base Camp

This old homestead belonged to my belated uncle Steve, and after he passed unexpectedly, I had returned to Minnesota from California and wanted to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for those interested in sharing a peaceful and modest property. The old barn is a work in progress to eventually become the base to accommodating more travelers and outdoor enthusiasts as finances permit. After working in the service industry bartending for 14 years and hosting 100+ global travelers via CouchSurfing out of San Diego, I am well versed in creating an inviting space, it has been a fulfilling endeavor. We look forward to meeting you and sharing/swapping stories around the campfire! Learn more about this land: Our property and profile are in constant change as we are in a stage of development, but we look to share our land with those seeking to enjoy a warm, welcome environment for those fellow wanderers, outdoor enthusiasts, vagabonds, and globetrotters. I am a well-traveled backpacker myself and share 5 1/2 acres with my father here in a bustling little touristy town. We enjoy the company of those who endorse small footprint, sustainable practices and like to establish meaningful connections. All we ask is that you respect the property, our neighbors, and make an effort to add one more new friend before you depart.
