Clean and cozy. Well maintained. Easy check in and out. We went in subzero temperatures in December and were warm and snug-both in the cabin and especially in the sauna!

Only a couple hours from home. But felt far enough away for a perfect weekend escape. We loved the Drifter cabin. It was very clean and comforting. The bed and the shower were great! And the hot tub was so relaxing! We also enjoyed the view of the Mississippi River from the front porch and from the hot tub.Great location in town. And close enough to everything we needed.Check in/out process was simple. And thank you for the easy process of adding the additional night.We've already talked about booking again. But this time we'd love to return in the winter.
