We had a wonderful one-night girls' getaway here! The cabin is cozy with beautiful views of Lake Cullen. It’s super close to the Paul Bunyan Trail, downtown Nisswa, and Hwy 371. The free breakfast was a nice bonus. Highly recommend for a relaxing trip with friends or family!

I like that the property is well taken care of. I wish it had more than one fire pit though. I also forgot my iPad there and they sent it back to me and saved me drive. Thank you for that. Overall I’ll gladly rebook.

Highly recommend

A beautiful resort. A lake view from each cabin. We were in cabin 7 and it was close to the playground for kids. Easy to get to the cabins from the parking area. The cabin itself was beautiful. The kitchen was well stocked with pans and utensils. There is a fireplace in the living area and its warm and cozy. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were perfect. Walk in showers if anyone has a disabilities.
