Awesome Mississippi River Property
House is clean, well furnished, and has amazing views of the river. The yard is big with nice grass, has a fun basketball hoop, a great dock into the river to park a boat, and an easy to driveway to park a boat trailer. The owners have great communication. My family and I had an outstanding stay. Thank you!!!

Minnesota fishing trip
Our cabin was real spacious for our family of 6. Closed in porch on back of cabin with futon. The deadbolt on porch door would lock you in & out on porch sometimes. Beds were comfortable & bathrooms were nice & clean. Kitchen had a long countertop with cabinets below with plenty of cooking supplies. Opposite of counter was refrigerator, sink, stove, & microwave. There wasn't any food storage in kitchen, only a couple cabinets in laundry/entry room. Air conditioning/ceiling fans kept us comfortable. We had storms the first few days which slowed fishing; but mid week it picked up in the Mississippi. Northern, largemouth & small mouth bass were caught. Soon after our arrival on Sunday morning at 8am a small black bear came running through the backyard. Several squirrels for our pet dog to watch. Painted turtle laid eggs, too! We had fish fry on day before we left. Owner was very responsive to our needs. Location of cabin was close to town. Cabin location for fishing was perfect for river & lake fishing w/o taking taking boat out of water. Great large parking area. We would rent this cabin again!

Quiet river view
Would totally stay again. Clean and comfy. Quiet river view. Our kiddo loved the beach, I loved having coffee overlooking the quiet river and watching folks harvest wild rice. Love how dog friendly they are 😀 The road gets a bit noisy at times but overall there is a good amount of privacy. Its close to the boat launch and a nice little cruise to Pokegama. Great restaurants in Grand Rapids! Enjoyed 2 Breweries. Our kid loved the basketball hoop and swing too! Happy to have had this place to stay :)

We’ll be back
Another relaxing family vacation. Property is tucked away on the river yet close enough to town and trails. Guest bedrooms are a bit tight for adults but we make it work. Would suggest some sort of pantry or shelving for guests to stash the food we bring for the week. Cabin has spacious living area and kitchen for group of 6 no problem. The porch is great to store coolers and stuff to keep out of the way. We will be back again next year!

Will rebook for 3rd time
A hidden gem. This place is tucked away on a quiet part of the Mississippi River that offers peaceful serenity. Even though you’re in town the backyard is quite private. We bring our fishing boat and jet skis and it has a nice dock and beach for those. Fire pit is used every night. Although the exterior is very cabin-like the interior is a nice home that accommodates our adult family, kids/spouses totaling 6. The 2 bedrooms are a bit tight with those sharing the hall bathroom. Hope the downstairs shower is finished by next summer. The new dining table is a nice upgrade and the big island is great for dinner prep and happy hour. Nice bike trails not far as well as a beach. Never even turned on the tv. Host very easy to communicate with. Plan on coming back next year for third time.

The overall place was beautiful. The outside needs some serious work. Meaning the landscaping and yard. Sticks and branches everywhere. There was only one dock that was accessible. In the description it says 2. Totally full of weeds up through the dock itself. Not able to use at all . This place needs alot of TLC

Rebooked!
We have been coming to this area in Minnesota for family vacation at a resort for many years. We decided to change it up to a private vrbo rental and were very pleased with what this property offered. Very private backyard didn’t even feel like you were in town. Nice view of very accessible and calm river water that led to other lakes. We set up croquet and bag boards, nice campfire pit with chairs provided and nice dock for our boat and sandbar for our jet skis. Kayaks were a nice bonus as well. Large open space inside cabin for 6 adults. Extra porch nice to kick off shoes and keep coolers out of the way. Did not use futon but mini frig on porch nice to store bait in and keep out of main frig. Bedrooms were a bit tight with extra twins but understandable for a rental. 2 full baths a plus for our group. Not sure anyone even used bathroom downstairs but that was nice to know it was available. Laundry available free to use (no coins) and was another nice bonus. Very nice (super quiet!) Bosch dishwasher in cabin. All appliances were full size. The grill was very nice as well. We found the location perfect to be close to town or a short drive to Grand Rapids for shopping at some favorite stores Discovered some trails to run/bike daily. Also made about an hour+ drive over to Walker for a shopping day and ice cream! Owners very responsive and easy check in. We rebooked for next year as this was such an enjoyable experience.

Mississppi Getaway
We had a wonderful time. House was clean and the AC worked. We were on the water everyday. The 10 minute trip to Pokekama was a bit longer than 10 minutes but was still tolerable. We were close to town, maybe a bit too close compared to what we usually get. The yard needed to be mowed (even though it was dry). Weeds around the house could have been cleaned up some. Was NOT happy about having a camera on at the front of the house the entire time we were there. Seemed invasive to us. All in all we enjoyed ourselves and thanks for sharing your cabin on the river.
