Summary: I/we loved this property and location. Close enough to the Twin Cities that you didnt ruin/waste 2 Days traveling. The location of the Cabin relative to others on the lake was perfect and private. 15 miles to the nearest town was great. Far enough to encourage you to make due with what you have (camping/cabin life) but always knowing you could run into Town if you needed to. The property and cabin was Amazing. Common Areas for eating or playing board games or porches to get away without being gone.

Summary: What a special place! If you are looking to escape and have that North Woods experience, this quiet cabin is on a peaceful lake surrounded by wilderness. We kayaked almost every night and the fishing was pretty good too. There's a nice spot for campfires and outdoor seating. The bugs were pretty bad but that comes with the woodland experience. If you have to work remotely as we did, the internet was strong and reliable. The cell signal is weaker but manageable.

Summary: Rent this cabin! Wilderness Acres is an absolutely wonderful spot to escape from the world and enter a total state of relaxation. My husband and I just spent 9 great days there and had a marvelous time. This place is magic - the setting and location (total privacy) - the history (owned by the same family for over 70 years) - the charm of the cabin (be sure to explore the great book selection, antiques, paintings and game selection) and the view just can't be beat. The owner, Robin, was extremely quick in answer questions that we had during our stay and her attention to detail is clear throughout the property. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare all our meals and the extra amenities (canoe and kayaks) were great! I can't recommend this property enough. Robin, thank you so much for sharing this family gem with us - we hope to be back!

Summary: This property is magical! My husband and 2 boys had a full week at this property and enjoyed every moment! The layout of the home is fantastic if you would like to spend time together or time alone. The lake, kayaks, fishing boat, fishing house, little reading house, and screened in porch are extra bonuses to such a beautiful piece of land! We rested, recharged, and most importantly built memories that will last a lifetime!

Summary: Property was rustic with many cool and interesting areas on the first floor and a beautiful second level with skylites and a claw foot tub! Peaceful setting with a cool screened in outer area. Lake was quiet with very few boats and we caught fish off the dock. Robin was great to work with and we liked it so much we were able to extend our stay. A perfect spot to get away for a peaceful relaxing getaway!!

Summary: We had a fun time. Got a few very small fish off the dock. The only issue was walking around the upstairs lots of creaking of the flooring. The spiral staircase is very loud and rickety Otherwise we had a great time!.
