Peaceful retreat with views of Elk River and plenty of nature and land surrounding the cabin. Relax on the wrap-around porch or watch the sunset on the screened-in porch in one of our rocking chairs. Boat launches nearby for some of the best of Elk River.
- "Great place to stay for fishermen. We had 2 boats and a 3rd truck as well. Actually would have had space for an additional boat. Will stay there again next year for sure if available." - "Loved the cabin! We got to see deer grazing early in the morning and loved the fireplace. The only thing was there are no TVs or Wifi, but you can use your phone as a hotspot." - "You sleep better here than in your own house. Super helpful owners, and so peaceful. Wildlife is abundant"
