Past trip
in Peace & Quiet on my land., MinnesotaQuiet convenient location
My hubby and I really enjoyed our stay with our hosts John and Terry. John met us at the road and directed us to our space and helped us back in our trailer. They are located right outside town and a little off a cty road, it was easy to find and close to amenities. John had firewood stacked set to be lit in the firepit and Terry made us a small gift (we were celebrating an anniversary). We were the only guests this weekend and it was so quiet! John and Terry were friendly, thoughtful and welcoming. They take great pride in their property and it shows. Bird watching on sight was incredible and Jay Cooke is about 10 minutes away. I would not hesitate to camp at Peace and Quiet again, we really enjoyed our stay.

Past trip
in Ranch Retreat, MinnesotaThis was my second visit to Jolenes place and we had a blissfully quiet and relaxing time. The creek was lovely and the weather was perfect. Great location for sightseeing or just relaxing at camp. We spent a day hiking at Great River Bluffs SP, which was 10 minutes away and the second day we bummed around Bluff Country and Lanesboro. Thanks so much Jolene for sharing your little slice of heaven. I can't wait to go back.

Big Trout Creek is beautiful. We were very pleased with our campsite, the creek is beautiful, lots of birds flitting about. We never met Jolene, she was gone for the weekend. Our first night was splendid until 4am when a freak storm came in. By 11am it was flash flooding, our tents blew down and were floating in 6" of water. Then the water came down the bluff in a torrent of unbelievable force. We were then floating in foam and mud. We were frantic to get out trying to pack our stuff covered in mud, while lighting, thunder and torrential rains came down. The creek turned into a raging river. I was terrified. We hung out for hours, scared to leave, not knowing if it was safe to drive due to water rushing over the road. We did not stay a second night. I would book here again, but not this sight, it was the only one out of the 3 sites that was under water. The fact that the host was not on sight to help us was concerning and I will check to make sure someone is on sight if I book again.
Past trip
in 16 Squared Cabin, MinnesotaMy mom and I had a peaceful relaxing stay at 16 Squared. We love to tent camp but we are finding it harder to do so due to our severe arthritis. 16 Squared was the perfect option. Basic rustic cabin in a beautiful QUIET setting without all the work of setting up camp. We were treated to double rainbows, fireflies, two Sandhill cranes and some deer. Our host Amanda was friendly, informative and thoughtful. Cabin is basic but Amanda left the essentials, water, wood, wipes, bugspray, TP, some first aid supplies and S'mores! Nice picnic table and huge firepit, which we did not use, due to the ticks. The outhouse was clean and solar lights provide a lighted path at night. Dogs are welcome, which was so nice. My moms dog Lucy is very aggressive towards other dogs, which makes for some stressful camping at campgrounds. Lucy could not believe her luck! Offleash! For the first time ever! She gives the cabin 4 stars also.
Thanks so much Amanda.
