Nouvellement rénové chalet de familles. Belle et de plaisir dans toutes les saisons!

Those are the things we enjoy as well! Especially in the fall. There’s nothing like a hot sauna and one last dip in the lake before it ices over. If ykyk!

To me, the cabin is exactly what an up-North Minnesota CABIN should be. It was built in the 1940's. The previous owner was a 94 year-old self-made woman who survived 3 husbands. She had quite a colorful story and many of the pieces (like the couch, the armoires, the funny signs, and the owl on the wall) were hers. I love them because I love the story behind them. We chose to keep the original, rustic pine flooring. The flooring is not tongue and groove, so there are cracks between the boards. The cabin is THOUROUGHLY cleaned prior to each and every arrival. Dirty bedding and towels are washed - beds made. Floors are vacuumed, swept and mopped. I also apply a floor finish to help protect the floors from all of the sand brought in. Bathrooms are scrubbed. Surfaces are wiped. Fridge and microwave are wiped. Grass is mowed and trimmed. Hot tub is treated and cleaned. Sauna is swept and vacuumed. Windows are washed as time allows. At least one time in the fall or spring cupboards, walls, ceilings, light-fixtures, couch cushion covers and under beds are washed, All bedding is washed, folded, and put away in a neat fashion. Hot tub water is drained and refilled on a monthly basis. As time allows, I do one of these "spring cleaning" task with each flip. That way, most major tasks get done twice/year. That said, I am human and I'm sure there are time when things are missed. In this particular instance, school had started and I could only get there directly after the last guest left. The cabin sat for a week before this guest checked in. It is quite possible there were some dust bunnies. If something is woefully lacking, I will certainly attempt to get over there to rectify the situation. I didn't hear a word from this guest until this review.
