We purchased the property in 2003 in order to escape the city life and be closer to nature. Over the years we have developed our sustainable farm, raising grass-fed cattle, chickens, and various other animals over the years. We also breed Bernese Mountain Dogs, so you'll see some of our pack wandering the property. We work hard to maintain practices that heal the land and preserve it for the future. No chemicals, hormones, antibiotics, pesticides or herbicides are used here. We raised our four children here and have made many memories together as we learned to farm, build and enjoy our land. We continue to create and build towards a long-term vision, creating a haven for artisans with self-sufficient living in mind.
Welcome to our inviting custom built cottage. It is located on our property, approximately 300' from on our home on our 55 acre land plot, located 10 minutes outside of St. Joseph, MN. We are very near St. John's University and the College of St. Benedict. Hiking trails located on our property as well as nearby County parks and St. John's University. We are 6 miles from the Wobegon Trail (76 miles long) which is great for biking, roller blading, walking and running.
Come explore Creekwood Acres which is host to a great deal of wild life as well as sustainably raised animals with a process we call rejuvenative farming. Wander through the woods and listen to the birds, watch monarch butterflies, our cattle and hear the, frogs, crickets and occasionally distant coyotes. The Watab Creek runs through the property which consists of fields, forest and a pond.
Our cozy cottage was built by our family using lumber sawn on our property. There are two double beds up in the loft accessible by ladder and one queen size sofa sleeper (very comfortable!) on the main level . A wood burning stove keeps the cottage cozy in cooler weather. There is a bathroom with flushing toilet and shower. Electricity keeps the cottage aglow and runs a refrigerator, microwave, sound system and fans. Also available for your convenience, an apartment size range and kitchen sink.
Enjoy a fire in a private fire ring near the cottage. Firewood available for purchase (for exterior fire ring). Enjoy a wood-fired sauna upon request. The sauna has been known to get quite hot!
Theres so much more to come and your current support to help with our reinvestment in Creekwood Acres is so greatly appreciated!!!
Side Note: We truly strive to accommodate everybody's needs and wishes. The more we host, the more we understand that some people just want to be left to enjoy a quiet weekend while others love to engage and develop a connection. We enjoy engaging in conversation and developing connections and yet completely respect the desire for others privacy to the utmost degree. We try to let the guest set the stage and expectations based on the first greeting and any encounters. Please feel free to state your hopes and wishes.
Also..., we are passionate about our farming methods with a strong sense of homesteading. If you are interested in learning more about regenerative farming, we are happy to chat! Our hope is to bring people back to the land in a holistic, spiritual, and conscientious manner.

Native Prairie Buffalo Site
19. Native Prairie Buffalo Site
19mi from Grey Eagle · 1 site
Carved out over 12,000 years ago by the Iowa glacial lobe, this land rests within the easternmost wintering area of the North American buffalo herd. This is a rare and untouched native prairie site near known Indigenous artifacts.
It is also just 25 minutes from world-class healthcare facilities and shopping in Alexandria, MN, or just 9 minutes from Osakis, MN. Head of the Lakes Resort, known for its generous portions of French fries, is also just a short drive away.
Walk to the nearest access point on the Long Prairie River, or travel just a couple of miles down Fairfield Drive—also a scenic walk—to Lake Osakis, one of the most heavily stocked walleye lakes in Minnesota. Battle Point also offers a nearby fishing pier.
Drive just 5 minutes northeast on County Road 1 to an easy tubing access point, then enjoy a couple of relaxing hours floating down the lazy river back toward the campsite.
The site is rustic, with no utilities or outhouse. Pack out what you pack in. Parking is available at the entrance only, and no motorized vehicles are allowed in the campground.
The western boundary is marked by a white poly fence, while the rest of the property extends to the river. See the photos for the boundary outline.

We loved tent camping in The Woods! Michael was an amazing host and was very responsive to any questions we had. It was secluded and so nice to have the space completely to ourselves! We’ve already started planning our next trips there!

The host went way beyond to make our stayenjoyable and memorable.
Some reviews said the site was to close to the home. But really it was really no closer than another camper at most camping grounds. We barely saw the owners unless they were asking if we needed more wood or anything else. I admit I was a little nervous at first, but I would and will stay here again.

This was our favorite ever camping spot! And we've camped a lot in our lifetime. First time not having to set up a tent because of he cabin. The cabin was so cute and just perfect. It's actually a lot bigger than it looks in the pictures. The spot is really quiet and far away from people. Jessah was super nice and extremely responsive to any questions. This is a REALLY nice getaway, we will definitely be back!

An all around wonderful location! My husband and I stayed for 2 night with our kids 14&15yo girls and 2 dogs. The site was clean and spacious. The perfect combination of shade and sun. Our dogs had plenty of space to play. The dock is East facing and perfect for coffee at sunrise. There are quite a few lily pads, they were easy to navigate with our paddle board and no bother to us. Eagle lake is incredibly close for swimming or to launch a boat as well as the town Battle lake for wood/ice or Dairy Queen! The critters we saw and heard were the best part. A family of swans with their baby and the coyotes yipping for a little bit at night were the biggest hits. We would definitely stay again.
