Such a wonderful Fall weekend getaway. We were in the area for a wedding, but were so surprised at how beautiful Perham is. We loved eating and shopping in town, heading to Maplewood State Park for a beautiful Fall hike, and enjoying the views and calmness at the Lake House. The home was very clean, spacious, and has everything you need. Hopefully we can make it back someday!

Loved our visit to the lake and this beautiful home! It felt very private, quiet and comfortable, even though connected to the main house. The amenities were precisely as listed. The owners were very pleasant and quick to respond to any questions during the stay. The bedrooms and upstairs sitting area were larger than expected, easy to accommodate some blow up beds for the children. A lovely stay for a family getaway!

Beautiful property and a gorgeous beach on the lake. The space was very clean, extra amenities to keep everyone busy and having fun. We used the place as a hub for several excursions to surrounding towns and events, and it was the perfect landing spot after our outings. In the evenings, fishing from the dock with our teenager was a great way to get outside and relax a bit. The kitchen, BBQ, and firepit were all well prepped- and we'll be sure to use them next time! While Perham has some very cute shops, the local food options are somewhat limited.

Big Pine Lake Gem

Our family has grown so much, we needed additional housing for our adult children this year. This little gem was perfect for us. It is essentially a "guest house" of the main house that is connected through a breezeway. The house is perfectly appointed with gorgeous finishes and all you would need for a family or group of friends. Dishes, linens, extras galore. The host reached out to ensure our stay was going well and made everything very easy for us. Would highly recommend!

Great location for visiting Perham

We initially missed that we were renting a shared property with the owners, which we always avoid. But it ended up working out great! The rental side of the property is set up to where you don’t even realize it’s shared. We liked that both bedrooms were upstairs and had bathrooms attached. Great location relative to our family in Perham and the downtown area. We look forward to coming back during the summer to take advantage of the lake. The lake and those amenities will make the rental price more worthwhile vs. our stay in the fall/early winter. But couldn’t have asked for a prettier lake view and spot to watch the sunrise every morning. We will be back!

Mixed feelings

We had a wonderful stay here and planned to return annually until… two weeks later I recieved an email stating that I was being charged $75 for new bed sheets. Host said that there was “orange medicine or food spilled on the blankets.” I was confused by this as I was positive we hadn’t ate/drank or used any orange products near the bedrooms. I asked for a photo and what I received was a photo of two tiny brownish dots on a comforter. Not even entirely sure how someone noticed them, and easily could have been there from guests before our stay, but I cant believe I’m being charged damages for it 😅
