Escape to this private, charming, up north cabin overlooking 8th Crow Wing Lake

Enjoy this thoughtfully detailed lake cabin for your summer getaway. All the amenities of home but with the slowness and charm of the north.

Perched on the crest of a hill overlooking 8th Crow Wing Lake, the views are stunning, peaceful, and ideal for bird lovers to observe nature in action. With expansive windows in every room, you can enjoy the outdoors from the light filled comfort of indoors. Or sit on the large deck and take in the hum of motor boats, loon calls, and humming birds zooming by. You will feel refreshed as soon as you walk in the door of this well loved cabin.

The property has much to offer. With woods separating the cabin from neighbors, you will feel secluded and away from it all. A winding pebble path leads you down to the lake, where you'll find a large dock for swimming, fishing or just sitting with a cup of coffee or glass of wine. There is a public boat launch on the opposite side of the lake and guests are welcome to tie up to the dock. Back up on top of the hill, take advantage of the large fire pit and yard activities, like bag toss (games provided).

Bring your bikes and explore the Heartland trail. Our favorite tour is from Akley to Walker, it's a beautiful stretch of the trail and Walker has a downtown with lots of shops and parks that are fun to explore. Another great day trip is to start in Nevis, bike to Dorset for a treat at the Dorset House, famous for their ice cream sundays, then end back at the Iron Horse in Nevis for delicious BBQ dinner.

No matter what your pleasure, we think you'll have a great time getting to know the cabin and the area. We would love to share this special place with you.

We winterize our cabin, so it is available for booking May-October and closed November-April. The dock access is dependent on weather. It's usually in by the end of May depending on ice out, and taken out by October 1, so would not be accessible for early May or October renters.

The path to the lake is steep and may not be accessible to those with mobility limitations.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Lovely Cabin in Nevis

We had a wonderful Forth of July vacation here. The home was so comfortable and had such beautiful views from the deck. We enjoyed many evenings with our pups outside. This home is close to Dorset and Park Rapids for fun places to grab a bite. Thank you so much for your hospitality. We hope to come back again.

Annual Summer Get-away

As always, the cabin was perfect for our summer family get-away. The cabin was clean inside and out, the hosts provided excellent instructions and local suggestions. Although the weather wasn't ideal, we were still able to enjoy sunsets on the dock and even did a little swimming. Thanks to the puzzles, books and games provided by the hosts, we had plenty to do inside as well. We are looking forward to going back again next year!

We rented the cabin for our annual ladies weekend. There was plenty of space for the four of us to relax, craft, watch movies, play card games, and cook meals together. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and we enjoyed eating out on the deck every day. The bathroom is redone beautifully and has lots of shelf space and hooks for multiple people to keep things organized. The beds were comfortable and we liked having places to hang our clothes. We were there without kids, but being moms, we all loved the cute little additions for children from the adorable loft area to the Tripp Trapp high chair to the basket of coloring books and shelf of games. The outdoors is private and beautiful. We did some photos together with the mossy steps and the trees starting to show some fall colors. Thanks for the lovely stay!

Treehouse Cabin

We had a lovely stay at this cabin. Our family of four including two sons and my parents enjoyed a week at this cabin August 2018. The cabin was just as great as I was hoping it would be. Everything was true to the pictures online, if not better in person. Our sons just loved the lower level including the bunkbeds and foosball table. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived. We enjoyed reading books and watching movies in the living room. The weather was a bit cooler and rainy than most Augusts, but I will say that made for the best napping in the Sunset Room. The mattresses and pillows were super comfortable. We also enjoyed the view of the lake from the cabin. Our sons enjoyed fishing off the dock. Kayaking was also fun for our sons who got to try it out for the first time ever. We saw and heard loon calls while on the lake, as well as from the cabin. The cabin was close to Park Rapids and Walker which made for fun day trips and shopping with my mom. The owners have a great little book at the cabin with recommendations for activities, restaurants and bike trails. We very much enjoyed staying at this cabin and hope to stay there again soon.

Wonderful Lake Escape

We rented this cabin July 2017. The cabin had been newly renovated, and was a wonderful place to spend our vacation. Beautiful views of the lake, and sunsets were fantastic. Facilities are perfect, and very good quality. Furniture in the cabin was comfortable and in great shape. Cooking facilities were great, with a nice complement of pots/pans/utensils. Beds were very comfortable, and offered great support. It was nice having the lower level family room as additional living space. Laundry (including laundry soap and dryer sheets) being available right at the cabin made life very easy. Gas grill worked great. We appreciated having the kayaks available for our use. The lake is quite a few steps down the hill, though very doable with a nice stairway, but be ready to make that walk each day/time you want to access the lake; we learned "early on" to take most everything we needed with us on our way down the "first" time. The lake was very clean, and great for swimming and boating. (We don't fish, so we cannot attest to the quality of the fishing, but we saw lots of others doing so.) We canoe a lot (we brought our own), and appreciated having access to other Crow Wing Lakes (9th & 10th) simply by canoeing through the small river connecting the upper lakes. Though we didn't use the cable TV often, we appreciated having it available if we wanted to check the news. Netflix was a nice addition, especially for rainy days or late nights. Internet access was good. Ceiling fans in every room kept the cabin cool and comfortable. Also, proximity to Park Rapids (15 miles), Walker (20 miles), and the Heartland Trail (access in Nevis only 3 miles away) was wonderful for biking, walking, and dining options. Owner and property managers were very accessible with any of our concerns, and were very easy to deal with. We would definitely rent this cabin again.

Restful and spectacular view

The cabin is nestled in a forest of trees. We felt like we were in a magical tree house, high above the lake. Everything in the cabin met our needs. The large windows in all the rooms, the deck surrounding 3/4ths of the cabin allowed us to commune with nature all the time! The only drawback was the long and steep path to the lake. There were no handrails , so we were unable to access the lake. We are seniors, so needed to stay up at the cabin and just view the lake from a distance.

Lovely Cabin

This cabin is beautiful and the most comfortable rental we have experienced. It was exceptionally clean and well organized. We really enjoyed the grill and kitchen, cooking all of our meals rather than going out. The deck and patio furniture were very appreciated. We loved the view and being in the trees. The sunsets were breathtaking! Loved the kayaks and games and foosball table! Streamed a movie in the evening from Netflix or Prime. Beds, linens and towels are high quality and very appreciated! Thank you for a lovely stay.
