We stayed here for one night on our way back home and were very impressed. It's a very unique area being on the river, I'm glad we were able to see it.
Needed to clean before unpacking. Second bedroom bed was unusable
Refrigerator was gross. It had sticky food on all the shelves. Needed to clean before unpacking our food. Freezer had 3 ice cube trays that had dirt in the frozen ice. Bunk bed in the second bedroom was unusable. 2 of the middle support beams were broken. Could see the sag by just looking at the bed. Tried to use the top bunk instead but after climbing up 2 steps of the ladder the whole thing was shaking and we felt it was unsafe. Floor was dirty. Wore socks in the house and they were filthy. Contacted the owner and she said, You do not appear to be happy leave immediately and she would refund the 2 nights we did not use. Her welcome book states if you want a 5-star experience you are in the wrong place. If you run out of something get creative or make do. That information should be part of her advertising. The outdoors was amazing. Thank goodness it was a beautiful weekend and we spent most our time outside. I do not except 5 star but I do expect beds that are in good condition.
The process was super smooth and everything met expectations for cleanliness and preparations. If there was one item to change, Iâd say the little tv could use an upgrade. Other than that, wonderful getaway!
Arrived to a place that was too good to be true. You can hear the sound of the rapids on the river from the cabin. Inside of the cabin holds everything you want, need and may have forgotten and very clean. Not a luxury hotel, but a 5 star experience for a stress free getaway with no hiccups!
This is probably the best stocked VRBO I've ever stayed at--I brought all sorts of kitchenware only to have more than enough equipment inside. The house was clean and well kept. Two things to be aware of:
-Its enormously BUGGY. It's on Wilderness Road so not surprising but bring lots of big spray and a a fogger.
-The bed in the guest bedroom is not that uncomfortable but it squeaks like nothing I've heard before. May benefit from some WD40.
But ultimately this is one of the best stats I've had with VRBO and would go again in a less insect-heavy season.
We had a great stay at the cabin. The location is excellent right on the snake river. Very very pretty. We took full advantage of the fire pit, kayaks on property, as well as the tubes. Our hosts were prompt to respond when we reached out to them. All in all, we had a great stay and would recommend to anyone traveling in this area of Minnesota. Also, the WiFi works well for anyone who needs it.
A friend and I were going for a weekend of sewing. It was winter, the path to the house was barely shoveled. We had to shovel more to get to the house. The code was wrong and we didnât have reception so we had to drive into town to call the owner, and when we finally got in, the smoke detector was chirping because of low battery and it was in the peak of the ceiling so we couldnât reach it. We did get a full refund, but we had packed all our sewing stuff and food so not only were we super disappointed but we had to go straight home and unpack.
My wife, myself, our adult daughter, and teenage son enjoyed a very pleasant 3 days relaxing between Christmas and New Year's. The cabin was smaller than we expected but it's well laid out and the drop-leaf rolling cabinet provided space for games, puzzles, and eating.
This was a great location for visiting family in Sandstone, just a 20minute drive on the interstate. The cabins are great for families as they are very close together. We would definitely love to stay in the summer when we could enjoy the river that is right in the back yard!
The cabin was very peaceful/quiet, our reason for our getaway. The amenities/supplies that were provider were very nice. The only thing I'm not sure if I missed in the description was the closeness of the other homes but did not disrupt the cozy and quiet area we enjoyed.
We had a great time. The cabin was really nice and had everything we needed. The kids loved being able to catch crayfish in the river and the owner was very helpful when we needed some help getting kayaks so all of us could go out on the river.
We loved the cozy cabin which had all the amenities needed. Loved the morning view from the bedroom and the fire pit which was on the river bank. Perfect getaway from the Twin Cities. Our dog also love being outdoor. Need good fans as only 1 of the 2 fans was really working and sometimes it got hot in the cabin even with the windows open. Will surely visit again.
Beautiful location and wonderful cabin and hosts. I can't explain how helpful the host was here. Are 7 month old puppy got loose went out into the forest and was lost for 3 days the host posted on the community Facebook as well as we did with pet finder and because of her help our dog was found. The home was absolutely clean full of everything you could possibly need the views were spectacular,and the stay was absolutely perfect.
We are a busy family with lots of adult kids who love to travel, any time, any where. Born and bred in Minnesota, you can always find us in, on, or under the water. Our home reflects our love of the lake, the country and the ever changing seasons. Our cabin reflects our love of up north and getting away from it all as we watch the endless river flow. We are low maintenance, casual travelers, and hope you are the same.
This is one of the nicest pieces of river frontage I have seen. Level and wooded with a panoramic view of the Snake River. Cabin was completely remodeled in 2018-changed the floorplan, tripled the amount of windows, added a fireplace and washer/dryer. Completely redid the bathroom and expanded the deck. There is another cabin nearby that I own that can be rented. Together they would accommodate 11 people. #2121659
