2 nights at Meadow Cabin
We enjoyed a great "quick getaway" (from Minneapolis) at this sweet property. Tucked in the woods, a 3 minute walk to the river, this was super relaxing. Hiking at St Croix State Park, s'mores, reading & games... Couldn't ask for a better mini-break. Thanks for the hospitality!

Weekend Trip to The Wooded Retreat/breakfast/spa
We wanted to get out but could not find camping with our trailer so my husband and I stayed in the Little Wooded Cottage. It was lovely. The cabin is super small but really cozy. I loved the mattress! It was incredibly comfortable. The cabin inside had a small chair, a nightstand, filled water jug and a few other small amenities. Outdoors came with a picnic table, fire pit, outdoor lighting and private outhouse ( which we appreciated) This cabin is not tucked away like the other cabins, you are close to the hosts home, but we had full privacy from the hosts and other campers. The cabin is shaded under pine trees and some maples and it was very quiet and serene. You are also within a 20 minute drive to Banning SP or St.Croix SP. I would book again for sure.

Met Ann when I arrived and she is a very kind and friendly host and was easy to connect with through messenger before the visit. The land is simply beautiful and has a variety of habitats to hike through and you feel at peace in the country but close to Duluth for restaurants and activities.

2 nights at Bundo's Cabin
We had the best time! A few days of peace without anyone but the two of us. It was the most calming, relaxing and romantic experience we have shared since we met five years ago. They had everything including plenty of fire wood. We did burn what we brought but it never would have been enough. Being seniors it would have been better if more was split but we made do.
If anyone in your group is more than 6’ tall consider bringing sleeping for the floor downstairs or a big tent or just under the stars. The loft was difficult for my senior very tall guy. Again it was not a deal breaker.
We do plan to come again, next time we will figure out the stereo and the heater. I’m very technology challenged!
We will be going back for sure!

1 night at Woods and Meadows Farm
Wow, this was my first HipCamp experience and I am pretty sure it has spoiled me for any future stays! The bar has been set pretty high, for sure. There were so many beautiful touches and attention to detail in both a practical and anesthetic sense. I watched turtles swimming in the pond, laughed at a precocious squirrel hurling pine cones at the steel roof of the cabin, and marvelled at a very large heard of deer as I walked the meadow and photographed a gorgeous field of wildflowers. My stay was far too short. I genuinely hope to come here again and spend more time. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven on earth. 🥰

Excellent communication. Very friendly and accommodating. Really neat space and great property. Perfect for a nice get-away with fields and trails to explore. It was a chilly night that the campfire helped make perfect.
