I would recommend the Farm to anyone. Ashley is great to deal with and is very accommodating. The property sits on beautiful acreage with trees and a river! The room is cozy and the bed is really comfy! I'm so excited I am extending my stay. I would definitely stay here again in my travels. Thanks Ashley!!

Perfect little hideaway for 2
Ashley was so sweet, meeting us with farm fresh eggs and milk, a new experience for us :) Everything was just as pictured and better. All of the amenities of home were available and we were thankful to be able to control the temp indoors (especially in April in Minnesota, where temps change drastically from day to day/night). The lodge has such a cozy, homey feel and we loved being able to just step outside to have a bonfire. I had no idea that there is also a patio with a grill and a couple of lovely chairs and footstools. Inside the lodge is stocked with everything you need and more. The table is small, with only one stool, so prepare to eat on the couch while enjoying something on Netflix (also an unexpected surprise!). We used the table for putting together a small puzzle. I didn't recall the listing staying this, but there is also WiFi available, which is really nice. All in all, The seclusion was wonderful, the trails beautiful and the accommodations were cozy. The perfect little hideaway for 2.

10/10 experience!
Quaint and amazing cabin - perfect distance as a quick getaway from the twin cities. We went in the middle of winter and it had absolutely everything we could have needed as far as amenities. We can’t wait to come back during a different season!! Ashley is an amazing host! 10/10 would recommend!
