Great quiet location, Wildlife and the sound of the country. You will have the only camp site on the property. You can stay in the small camping cabin in comfort with your own bedding, or sleeping bag for the twin bed in the loft, or the futon on the main level. The cabin only has room for two adults unless you bring a camp pad to sleep on the floor, or squeeze in a child, but you have the comforts of a small electric heater, or A/C if needed, a Weber grill, mini fridge, microwave, and Electricity. Quiet former country farm site, with great wildlife viewing options with walking trails. Only 23 miles to DT St. Cloud and 8 Miles to the Walmart in Princeton for food or supplies. If a shower is desired the Kwik Trip in St Cloud, on Hwy 10 has showers. Just a half mile off Hwy 95 and 5 miles from the large Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge, with trails and lots of wildlife. In the Fall expect to see a large amount of wildlife with many migrating birds come out of the refuge to feed. Expect to hear Pheasant's cackle in the AM, and see Sandhill Cranes or Geese fly over the camp site, or sitting in area fields. Enjoy time around a campfire with folding chairs and a picknick table, with plenty of free dry wood in a storage rack. My feeling on how well the heater will work in cold weather is you are probably good until the temp is in the lower teen. if interested you could bring a larger heater to help with heating. I do no plan to plow the driveway if it snows so keep that in mind if you see a storm forecast. I will block out dates after the first significant snowfall.

Weekend Trip to The little cabin

Joaquin (the dog) and I had the best time at this tiny cabin! It was cozy and charming, with a little campfire that made our night feel magical. Joaquin loved having space to roam and sniff every corner like the king of the woods. For me, it was pure bliss—a quiet spot to kick back and rest my head. If you’re looking for peace, fresh air, and a happy pup, this is the place!

This was my second stay. It’s a lovely place to spend some time, and very convenient just off the highway. Thanks for making it so affordable.

Nice dry wood makes for an easy fire between rain showers!

Great little spot for a solo getaway just my dog and I. Love the proximity to Sherburne Nat'l Wildlife Refuge. Enjoyed various hikes there and the nature drive twice. The cabin was cozy and we enjoyed the shelter as there were intermittent showers. The porch overhang is nice to enjoy a quiet rain while staying dry. Loved having the mini fridge and microwave too. Just enough creature comforts yet simple and relaxed. Thanks for sharing your space Troy! Hope to be back next spring or fall!

The place was nice and clean. We really enjoyed having plenty of firewood to use. It was hot and humid while we were there so it was really nice having a/c. It was very peaceful there and we would highly recommend! Troy is super nice and responds quickly if there are any questions.

Great little spot. Good location. Had a blast. Not as minimalist as camping, not a one or two star stay. Finds a sweet spot right in the middle.

Weekend Trip to The little cabin

This was just what we needed for our quick weekend getaway to attend a wedding reception! The Little Cabin is just that: a little cabin. Very cozy, efficient, and cute. The porch is just right for birdwatching, the property feels secluded and private, and we thoroughly enjoyed our overnight. Thank you for providing this space on Hipcamp!

Nice, quiet getaway! We slept in tents in our getaway and used the little cabin to keep our gear out of the elements. It was really nice to have the mini fridge and a microwave to help us with our meal prep. Would definitely come back again!

Weekend Trip to The little cabin

This little place was exactly what we needed as a place to crash with our dog on a little road trip to pick up a vehicle. It is small and cute and thoughtfully put together. We didn’t have a fire but there was plenty of firewood available. There is an outhouse a short walk away from the cabin. It was somewhat chilly outside and the small electric heater was plenty just go get the place warm for bed time. It’s nice that there’s a fridge and microwave, a small futon couch, and a fold up/down counter with folding chairs that tuck away. There were hooks to hang coats, and a few odds and ends (books, map, binoculars, matches) on the shelves above. Would recommend for a short stay to crash.
