MN cabin escape. 2 cabins on exclusive DL shore

Two cabins located on the most highly sought after shore on Detroit Lake - South Shore Drive! Beach Lot! Hard bottom for swimming with a sandy beach. Gather your loved ones and get ready for some fun and relaxation!
Beautiful gardens and green space add a special kind of zen.
Whether you are coming for fishing, boating, swimming, reunions or family time, this place has it all! Access to the best restaurants and bars DL has to offer, by land or by water.

The space
Two traditional MN log cabins set the tone for an "up north" experience you'd find in a storybook. Located in the city limits of Detroit Lakes, the lot layout, green spaces, and heavy tree cover provide a feeling of exclusion and peacefulness. The guest cabin is a perfect home for the kids or an additional family. Lakeside is a peaceful fern garden - the last on Detroit Lake - that transitions to a soft grass lawn, then a perfect sandy beach and firm, sand lake bottom - a rare and highly coveted feature on Detroit Lake. The beautiful back yard gardens transport you to your own, private escape that seems to suck stress and tension from your soul for a different level of relaxation. The adjacent, lush lawn is a perfect spot for yoga or a lawn chair nap. Patio pavers are home to comfortable patio furniture and a grill - perfect for sipping on a glass of wine or a mug of beer while you fire up the BBQ. Watch sunsets turn into unforgettable Minnesota lake nights around a campfire. You'll make lifetime memories at this incredible DL property!

Family Getaway

Family of 5 for a four day stay and it was everything we were looking for. Beach was perfect for swimming and lounging. Good fishing off the dock. Both cabins were very clean and had everything anybody would ever need. Host Matt was very accommodating and communication was great. Would definitely recommend if Detroit Lakes is a destination your planning on.

Labor day at DL

Wonderful, charming cabin and guest cabin. Well stocked with dishware etc, towels etc., cleaning materials etc. but few condiments. Cabin readily cools with north/south facing. Beach is fantastic. Very safe neighborhood. Matt was very responsive to our questions. We were fortunate to have absolutely fantastic weather. Bravo!

Everything we were hoping for and MORE

Seven night stay and wish it was more!!! Communication and check in great experience. Beach and swimming area perfect for our four grandchildren ages 6 to 3 as well as the six adults. Well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Appreciated storage building near dock. Guesthouse perfect for additional sleeping space and also well stocked. We spent many hours in porch area relaxing and enjoying the view. Neighbors were friendly. Natural property boards provided privacy and shade. Highly recommend for a true cabin experience with all the perks. Oh and the garden area was fabulous, shows this place loved by owners. Thanks Matt and Jody for a wonderful family vacation!!!

Summer Blast

This was the perfect place for our family gathering with its beautiful outdoor spaces and spacious cabins we were all able to find our own spaces to relax and recharge We enjoyed many hours talking in the fern garden and in the porch but it was the sandy beach and lake that saw most of the action. It seemed like someone was either sitting in the chaise lounges or floating in the water all the time! Oh, and those modified beach chair towels were a huge it! We all want to come back next year!
