It was our second time there. We absolutely love this place!! It is so beautiful and relaxing! We will definitely be back again. Spacious cabin, excellent amenities, beautiful grounds.
We absolutely loved this cabin!! If you love privacy and the great outdoors, this is for you!! My husband and I normally camp when we come here on vacation from Oklahoma, but this time we wanted to try renting a cabin to streamline our vacation. This was a wonderful decision!! We had the comforts of home inside but enjoying the outdoors too!!We saw deer several times, a woodchuck, wild turkeys, hummingbirds. We also got to do the other outdoor activities we enjoy such as golfing in Chatfield and Old Barn resort, biking, walking and running, going to the breweries in Fountain and Lanesboro. All of these activities were just a short drive away. We highly recommend this location!! The hosts were very attentive to our needs as well.
Spectacular weekend getaway for our family reunion! We enjoyed the large lawn area for croquet and frisbee games, and the fire pit with comfy chairs and picnic table for visiting, sâmores and evening sunsets. Gorgeous views from the hilltop siteâcows, coyotes and owls serenading us in the distance! The cabin was super clean and nicely air conditioned to get away from summer afternoon heat, with lots of games & books for inside entertaining! Very comfortable beds in the lofts; well-appointed kitchen for putting together quick meals. A scenic 15-minute drive to Lanesboro for biking and shopping. Everyone enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and would love to return! We highly recommend!
Our stay at the Heritage Hideaway was peaceful and relaxing. The location was perfect for accessing the Root River Trail and all the communities in the area. Troy stopped in to welcome us and we enjoyed a friendly chat. Weâve been to the area many times and definitely rate this property as one of the most beautiful, clean and comfy!
Will definitely stay again next year! Very clean, had everything we needed and the outdoor space and view was amazing. Side note: hope the nice man in the cornfield finds his wild pig ;)
We loved the space for indoor/outdoor games as a family, quiet nooks to read, and the kitchen/dining area for sharing meals. It was close enough to get to our daily activities in nearby towns, but so quiet and cozy when we wanted to relax!
This cabin is a gem! So close to so much fun. Check in was a breezeâŠâŠthe charcoal grill was great and they thought of everything. Fresh farm eggs. Would love to try it in the winter. Very tastefully done, a very good value.Prepare to relax.
Off the beaten path, but still just minutes from it all.
A secluded spot, perfect for a romantic getaway. Just a few miles from town, great breweries and restaurants to choose from. It was a beautiful setting filled with peaceful nature sights and sounds. The hosts were phenomenal, they went above and beyond to help make our stay amazing.
The property was gorgeous! Went for several walks and just enjoyed the natural surroundings. The cabin itself was adorable and filled with family heirlooms and photos of the owners. Troy and Laurie were very attentive to any needs that popped up and even came over to service the air conditioner during our stay to make sure we stayed comfortable.Looking forward to visiting again during the winter to enjoy some cross country skiing!
We really enjoyed the cozy cabin. Lanesboro was 10 mins away and very quaint with good food options. We are already planning to come back in the fall to enjoy the fall colors and local apple orchards!
The cabin was the perfect place to stay for a weekend of gravel riding in the area. The cabin provided a clean, comfortable place to stay and the grounds are lovely. We hope to return!
My wife and I have stayed at heritage hideaway for several years and hope to return for several more. It is a perfect getaway for a couple or for a small family who want a quiet retreat in the country but close to Lanesboro and all that it has to offer.
The property is beautiful and very well maintained. It has everything you could want to enjoy your stay. The views and outdoor fire pit are fabulous. I highly recommend staying here
Troy was born and raised in the Lanesboro area. He works as an Engineer for Minnesota Department of Transportation in Rochester. In his free time he enjoys hunting, fishing and just generally being outdoors. The Danielson family continues to maintain the original family farm nearby. Laurie grew up in west central Wisconsin on a small hobby farm. She works as a pharmacist for Mayo Clinic in Rochester. She loves living on the Root River and enjoys gardening, cross country skiing, snow shoeing and biking the Root River Bike trail. We feel fortunate to live in such a beautiful place and enjoy meeting our guests. We hope you enjoy your visit to the Lanesboro area.
The cabin site was once a heavily wooded pasture to a neighboring farm. The main cabin was built off site by local Amish and moved into place in 2001. The original log structure had seasonal indoor plumbing and an outhouse nearby. We purchased the property in 2011 and started work on the bathroom & laundry addition January 1, 2012. In keeping with the "rustic" feel of the cabin, finish work utilized recycled barn boards from Laurie's childhood farm.
The pictures and many items in the cabin reflect our personal heritage. From the handmade quilt from Grandma Christine to the barn pulleys from the original Danielson family farm, all are reflecting the value of hard work and thriftiness instilled in us from our ancestors. We hope you enjoy the peace and beauty of Heritage Hideaway and are inspired to reflect on your own personal heritage.
