A little piece of paradise
Fun family vacation. Cabin fit our family of 5 perfectly. Fishing was good, our girls loved fishing off the dock and swimming. Our son enjoyed taking the kayak out to fish the rest of the lake. Water was nice, warm and clean. Great shallow swimming off the dock for our kids. Thank you Taplins' for a great stay!

The property is very well maintained with convenient access to the lake. You can swim right off the dock. We used the provided paddleboat and kayaks frequently. The lake itself is clean and very quiet. The hosts were welcoming and the cabin had everything we needed. We would definitely come back!

Peaceful fishing spot
This place was beautiful. So much shade! Plenty of places to sit and enjoy the views of the lake or fish from the dock. Paddle pontoon was so fun. Loons and eagles were cool to watch. Bass fishing was great. Caught several pike and lots of sun fish. Hosts were super nice! Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet fishing spot or a peaceful place to relax and read a book. Word of advice though: bring mosquito repellant! If you make sure & wear it you'll be fine but if you forget it they can be bad.

Not for old people or people with any disabilities.
To close to the host! Hard to get your belongings in the cabin, as was too many steps. Sign says Please do not drive or park on the grass. The host was always out in the yard doing yard work or using leaf blower and cutting wood. We are in our 80’s.The place was given a 10 and said exceptional. Needs more info. on information. He did help us unpack, but not when we left, supplied us with wood for the stove. Kayaks were out two days and then he put them away.

Great Cabin
The cabin was perfect for our family. It was spacious and very clean, the bathroom was probably the nicest bathroom I have seen in a cabin. The lake was clean and the kids loved swimming off the dock. We also caught several fish right off the dock. We enjoyed going out in the paddle boat and the kayaks as well. There was space around the cabin for the kids to run and play and the fire pit next to the lake was great. Would highly recommend this cabin.

Tranquility
This was an ideal spot for peace and quiet. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. We loved the pontoon paddle boat! This is what we used to go fishing and we paddled around much of the lake. We also enjoyed the kayaks and floaties. The glider swing at the end of the dock was the perfect place to enjoy our morning coffee. It was a wonderful vacation away from the Cities!

Amazing and Quiet
The photos do not do this property justice. This property is exceptionally well-kept and stocked with everything you need. The cabin sits on an incredibly clean private lake with some great fishing. The owner is super friendly. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing lake-side cabin 10 minutes from a grocery store and a bait shop, this is it. Great family room, two nice bedrooms with closets and dressers, kitchen stocked with everything you need, and a new, clean bathroom. I can't believe we were so lucky to be able to enjoy this property for a week. Incredible.

What a wonderful find!
We three thoroughly enjoyed our week on Miller Lake at the Tapin's cabin. The location is beautiful, and the outdoor amenities were what really "made it" for us: the sturdy new dock with comfortable seating in the sun, a fun pedal boat that doubled as a fishing platform, two Old Town kayaks and a huge wooded yard with lovely gardens. (We ate fish every night--three varieties.) The beds were comfortable and the wood stove was especially appreciated since there was a chill in the air already. It was so cozy to sit around the stove and read or play games in the evening! The kitchen was more than adequate. The large set of new cooking pots and pans was nice; the fridge is large. In fact, we were so comfortable in the cabin and the kitchen was so adequate that we had every meal at home and didn't even eat out at all. (The farmer's stand in Garrison was great for fresh fruit and veggies.) In summary, the Tapin's place was terrific, and we look forward to relaxing there again next summer!

A Time-Out in Lake Country, Minnesota!
3 hrs away from the hustle and bustle of the cities and their bedroom communities, we enjoyed a tranquil week at this jewel of a lake cottage! This served as our base of operations for forays to Brainerd, Baxter, Crow Wing State Park, Crosby, Garrison/Lake Mille Lacs and to Lake Itasca for a view of the headwaters of the Mississippi River. We rode bicycles on the Paul Bunyan State Trail! We sat in the rocking chairs our hosts, Rick & Cindy had so thoughtfully put on the dock! We soaked up the sun, fished/caught fish, saw otters swim by the dock, watched a hawk/osprey catch a fish from the lake, and listened to acorns fall from the oak trees and used the host's paddle pontoon for a short float on the lake. The cottage was charming, tidy and comfortable. There was a well-outfitted kitchen, a great hot shower, picture windows for picturesque views of the lake and a wood stove with wood to heat the cottage! We like woodstoves and campfire! It reminded us of some camps and cottages we've stayed at in the U.P. of Michigan, the Snowies of Wyoming, and Missouri's Ozarks! Places where you could get back in touch with Nature and back in touch with family and self! Thanks again to our hosts for sharing this oasis with us! We would like to return and bring our grandson with us next time!
