Private Year Round Cabin On Lake Mille Lacs-4 bedroom, 3 bathroom

Property Description
The perfect getaway for any occasion! Less than 90 minutes from the Twin Cities. This beautiful property is located on the west side of Mille Lacs Lake between Garrison (5 miles north) and Grand Casino Mille Lacs (5 miles south). Inside our family-friendly cabin, you will appreciate the open concept allowing you to entertain and relax with your group in comfort.

Situated on a peaceful harbor off St. Albans Bay, this private cabin will allow you to experience all that Minnesota lake country has to offer no matter the season. In addition to top notch, year-round fishing, enjoy a range of activities from watersports to hiking, ATV riding to snowmobiling, swimming to campfires...you won't be disappointed.

Referred to as the "Walleye Capital of the World", Mille Lacs Lake was also ranked as the #1 bass lake in America by Bassmaster. In addition, the 128,000-acre lake provides anglers with ample opportunities to catch trophy northern pike, muskies, jumbo perch, crappies and sunfish. Once you have caught your limit, enjoy our fish cleaning house located just off the dock. After the fish fry, relax down by the water in the screened in gazebo with a libation and a warm s'more cooked in the fire pit.

The local area offers multiple bait shops, convenience stores, restaurants and food & beverage retailers. Northwood Hills golf course is less than 2 miles away. Kathio State Park and the Soo Line Trail are nearby offering miles of hiking, cross country skiing, running, ATV and snowmobile trails.

If you enjoy quiet adventures, there are myriad trails for snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. The Mille Lacs Kathio State Park (located 10 miles south) has a sledding hill with hot chocolate in the warming house.

Myself and my 2 boys along with my buddy and his son stayed here on a Monday thru Friday for a week of hanging out and fishing. Host was awesome, went out of his way to get me information on fishing spots and launches and the home was great, boat was parked at the dock which made the start of our daily ventures easy. The property was great, we had stuff to do all the time, even in the rain. Great Memories were made and have no complaints!

We’re all retired so everything on one level was great. Loved the open concept and view of water from large windows. The only problem we had was the mosquito’s, which owner has no control of, when setting outside. Have no complaints on the house, very comfortable. Thanks

Girls weekend
Nice property, plenty of room for our party of 9. We liked the large table for games and the fireplace was nice, however turn it off a few hours before bed, otherwise the bedrooms don't get any heat from the furnace and were rather cool. There are a bunch of games in the table storage. We spent the day hiking Kathio State Park so didn't utilize the outdoor amenities on site, but the yard and dock area looked rather inviting. 2 bundles of wood were provided.

Space and views!
Although the property is not directly on the main lake, the huge windows in the open living area provide lovely views of the cove (there is a channel on the water through to the main lake). The kitchen is well-stocked and the beds are comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the fire pit and the gazebo (which let us play cards "outside" even in the rain. Communication with the host was clear and prompt.

Spacious and accommodating
We could not have asked for a more relaxing atmosphere. We enjoyed the open fire pit in the evenings. Perfect weather to be outside. Huge grill for grilling hamburgers or steak and veggie kabobs for 6 easily. Cabin had huge open dining room/living room area surrounded with all windows to view the colored leaves on the many trees. Kitchen and bathrooms were well supplied. Part of the group tried fishing for walleye. No luck but they came back with lots of good memories of the ones that got away and many images of a beautiful lake. We recommend Hunter's Point restaurant in Isle for a perfect walleye dinner. Downer for us was no view of the lake from our cabin. The cabin is located on a canal that was shallow and covered with green algae. TJ was a gracious host and answered all my questions and gave me excellent tips before we even set foot on the property. So helpful. Thank you for a memory-filled week.

Mille Lacs lake home
We stayed at this property for a summer lake getaway with friends. The home was great with plenty of space and a great table everyone was able to all fit at for meals and games. The fire pit area was excellent with plenty of space for everyone and easy access to wood so we didn’t need extra trips to get more. We rented a pontoon for a day at a place only a mile away and had a great time boating and fishing out on the lake. The property is within a small channel so it is easy to get out to Mille Lacs and also nice to be out of the wind from the large lake while on the property. We all really enjoyed this property and the host was great with information and making sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely book this property again.

Perfect family cabin
We gifted my parents a family get away weekend for Christmas and ended up landing with this property. It has a perfect open concept family area/ kitchen where we spent most of our time. The bedroom locations were also very convenient since my niece was going to bed before the rest of us every night. The rooms down the hallway were perfectly tucked away so we could continue our night in the family area without worrying about waking her up. We planned on fishing but never got around to it due to the extremely cold temps. Overall, great cabin and would recommend especially for families or groups that want a good open space.
