Stories from the community

2 nights at Safe And Sound In Nevis, MN

The cabin was wonderful . The lake and the doc are majestic at sunset. My tweens loved sleeping in the loft and making smores by the fire pit ! Deb is a great host invited us downtown to an event she hosts that benefits the animal shelter ! A real swell time with swell hosts !

2 nights at Tamarack Ponds

This site was great! Very peaceful and relaxing. It is well maintained and everything was as advertised. It is especially helpful to have firewood included. It is good, quality wood and is located close to the site. I highly recommend this site!

2 nights at Paul’s Lakeside Cottage

Paul’s cabin is nice and simple. Beautiful land and lake access. We saw loons, herons and heard lots of other birds each evening and morning. The cabin had the essentials we needed and Paul was very hospitable.

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

I visited Harvest Loon Camp on a girls getaway late spring and knew immediately I needed to book it for a family weekend in the summer. We had a wonderful time for both visits! My kids are little (2 & 4) and loved the sandy beach and swim area. The fire pit area is well kept and we loved eating our meals in the screened in porch. It's the area is private and wildlife is abundant. We would've loved to have caught some fish off the dock but they weren't biting during our stay.

Weekend Trip to Wise Woods on Fool Lake

What a great piece of lake property to camp! After a short drive up a wooded path you are greeted by a lovely piece of wooded lake heaven with open vista to the lake. The property has an elevated area where we put our Chalet and two tents. This is where the outhouse is located as well. The property has a partial "road" down to the lake where you can tell some people may have driven. Not steep however. There is a flat area by the lake where a fun two person swinging bench is located and large fire pit. Fools Lake is clean and clear for swimming and kaying, my favs. We were in the lake all the time. I enjoyed the ease of steps into the lake. There is a sandy bottom with some rocks (wear your water shoes) but so easy to lauch your canoe or kayaks. There is a large dock as well. This property is well hiden for privacy. Quiet. Beautiful. We will return.

Weekend Trip to The Black Loon

Paul’s set up makes camping a breeze. Plenty of seating, beautiful fire pit with free firewood available, porta potty, some shelter for evening hanging or protection from rain and nice tent pads. It stormed a lot the night I was camping and the tent pads drained nicely and did not pool water around my tent. The site is very easy to get to from the main road. Enjoy!

2 nights at Paul’s Lakeside Cottage

Loved our time at Paul and Piper's. Their hospitality is fantastic. Plenty of room for our dog to stretch her legs. Cabin is also close to the NCT for hiking which was our focus. Wish we would've had more time - would have loved to take a sunset cruise around the lake with Paul and Piper. We hope to be back!

2 nights at Harvest Loon Camp

We had a great stay here will definitely be back, great Location great amenities. Beautiful place well stocked on everything you could need.

Weekend Trip to East Lake Ranch

Hosts truly want you to experience and enjoy the features of their property! Both sites offer quick and easy access to the dock and provided kayaks, mowed walking path which has wonderful flower aroma and perfect view of the Eagle nest and a variety of butterflies. The animals were definitely a bonus, my daughter loved feeding the pigs! Meadow site doesn't have shade except down by the dock, but has views and open play space, where as the other site is more private and tree covered, but smaller area. All directions and descriptions given by owners were 💯 clear and accurate.

Weekend Trip to Safe And Sound In Nevis, MN

We had a wonderful stay at Debbie’s place! She was very responsive and made us feel welcome right away. One of the highlights was the relaxing pontoon ride she offered – such a peaceful way to enjoy the lake. The water was calm and the overall vibe was incredibly soothing, giving us the perfect chance to unwind. If you’re looking for a serene lakeside getaway with a warm and attentive host, we highly recommend Debbie’s land.

Weekend Trip to Harvest Loon Camp

We had a magical time celebrating our daughters 4th birthday at Harvest Loon. Two nights wasn't enough! A cozy cabin with just the right amount of amenities. This might have just have to become a tradition for our family 🤗

Weekend Trip to The Forest Container

Staying at what I would call an art installation during a heat wave made our weekend at Cayuna a trip to never be forgotten! Finding solace in an AC shelter was an amazing experience in 90° weather. I will definitely come here again!

1 night at Cuyuna/Mississippi River Land

We had a great trip! The river access was fantastic and the site itself was lovely and well kept. Our 4wd vehicles had no problem getting back to the site, though as Leah mentioned a smaller vehicle would have struggled. Plenty of room for a couple of hammocks and a very large tent! Overall beautiful spot, we will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Cuyuna/Mississippi River Land

Site 2 was great ! Our Honda pilot AWD made the drive easily . Plenty of unsplit logs already cut up and stacked at the camp site ready for splitting and burning which was amazing ! Kayaks worked perfectly ! We will come back

Weekend Trip to Paul’s Lakeside Cottage

This place was perfect for my son and me. Close to fishing, Itasca State Park and some great small towns. Quiet, clean and comfortable.

Weekend Trip to Northern MN Camping & Glamping

Nice spot, will book next time I am in the area. It is close to the Tioga MTB trails and close to town which had great live bands both night. Site is easy to get to and it is good size flat spot. We fit two vehicles with trailers, no problem. Lots of room for tent camping. Nice above ground firepit with generous supply of firewood. Brand new picnic table. Was there to mountain bike so did not use the lake, but it is a short walk down the dirt road. Clean port-a-potty. Blair was really responsive with messages and provided good communication.

Weekend Trip to The Forest Container

We loved the container cabin! We have a family of 4 it was tight but we made it work. First time in a bathroom like that didn't expect the shower to be hot but it definitely was! Very peaceful yet close enough to bike to everything.

2 nights at Harvest Loon Camp

My family & I enjoyed harvest loon camp! Although we overpacked, everything was & provided for us, from bedsheets to pillows, blankets, pots, pans, mosquito spray & charcoal! The place was well cleaned & organized. It was such a cute & cozy place! Will definitely be renting again! The host was also fast at replying & accommodating!

3 nights at East Lake Ranch

Despite the rain, we were still able to enjoy the fresh air! We decided to stay an extra night this time around and now think we may have to stay 4 nights to do all we wanna do! The eagles and juveniles were fun to watch, as well as the other bird species in the area. Saw a hawk or falcon of some sort but it flew off before we were able to identify it. All in all, we had an amazing time and my dog got to meet all the animals which was extra cool. We also learned very quickly that the fish loved biting at the worms!

2 nights at Wise Woods on Fool Lake

This is a private spot. Only you and your set up. It’s a beautiful lake and a nice set of stairs to the lake. There’s a wonderful wood swing over looking the lake. There’s aLao a picnic table and a big fire pit. I’d recommend your own toilet set up if possible. It was wonderful! 10/10 I’d come again

Located on the Pine River just minutes from Crosby/Ironton with wooded mature trees that offer privacy. The land is quiet and calm. River is clear and varies in depth depending on the season. The Pine River State Water Trail flows gently through the jack pine forests and quiet water of west central Minnesota. The lake and hill country in this area illustrate classic glacial land forms. With easy access to a public launch and within a half mile of the Mississippi River it is a perfect spot for exploring some of Minnesota's greatest waterways, lakes and forests. Property backs up to privately owned conservation land. Site is mostly primitive with electricity available. Outhouse bathroom. Access to property is through a unpaved wrap around driveway.

After a day on the trails, in town, or on the water, an evening overlooking the river is a perfect way to end the day. Wind down, relax and enjoy the trees, water and nature surrounding you. Pack in and pack out trash/recycling. Keep the forest and animals safe! Please be respectful of the property and the neighbors/neighborhood.
