Very quiet property. Occasionally could here some of the campers in the park. About 3/4 of the way down the lane in the evening there is a little grass area where the deer would come out to graze. Depending on the time you came back to the cabin you could see a few. One evening there was probably close to 20 out there. If you are a nature lover it is an awesome site to see. The host was very responsive to anything i messaged her for. Had a few issues with the internet and it probably could have been resolved rather quickly if i had contacted Kate right away. As it wasnt really a big deal to us i lat her know before leaving. Overall had a good experience here. Stayed 6 nights.

Super chill stay

Although it was initially difficult to find due to the pinpoint on map not being in the right spot Kathryn answered very quickly and even came out and showed us the way there! Super sweet. The stepping stones down to the cabin are alittle scary to go down so becareful. The lights on the house at night are super cute. We unfortunately had to cut our trip short but they were very accommodating with everything and tried their best with any issue we may have had. Would definitely come here again.

Peaceful Stay!

The location of this cabin is amazing. It is within 15 minutes of Hastings, Prescott and Afton but feels far out in the country. You can see the beautiful St Croix River through the windows and there is easy access to Afton State Park a 1/4 mile down the road. The cabin itself is quaint without many frills but has everything that is needed and the beds were very comfortable. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for the week to have a time of silence and solitude.

Amazing Location to Get Away From It All

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at this charming cabin. Just 40 minutes from St. Paul and surrounded by nature. We enjoyed exploring Hastings and Afton and hiking in Afton State Park. The perfect get-away close to home.The cabin is just as shown in the photos, the check in process a breeze, and the hosts very friendly. We made a simple dinner one night and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The living room was especially cozy.

Perfect getaway! Cozy, charming, one of a kind!

We had a wonderful, calm and relaxing stay in the woods overlooking the serene St. Croix river. Kathryn was a fantastic host and the cabin was immaculate and inviting. So much attention to detail. Photos highlighted the history of the property and the natural surroundings. Right next to Afton state park and Afton Alps. Close to Hudson as well. Exceptional!
