"We enjoyed our stay at Sandy Pines. The cabin was so cozy. It had the charm of a rustic cabin but also some nice updates and is well maintained. Listening to loons at night from the screen porch was a favorite. The outdoor dining area was another great gathering space.The lake was clean and the sandy shore made it the perct place to take a quock dip. We also made good use of the kayaks and paddleboards. The lake wasn't incredibly large or busy so it was easy to keep an eye on people from the dock as they paddled around. We also treated to a beautiful sunset from the dock.The hosts have many included amenities that make staying there hassle free. Everything was clean, well organized and easily accessible. We would definitely consider this property again for a small group or couples getaway!"

"This beautifully restored cabin, is off a quiet county road tucked in a grove of tall pine trees . A perfect setting for a walk down the small private road and enjoy the sound of birds and the breeze.Inside the cabin (open floor plan) the kitchen had a large wooden island stocked with cookware and utensils, a farmhouse style sink and retro refrigerator and electric range. Beware stepping into the bathtub/shower, it’s slick and could us some no skid strips or a bath mat.The open staircase had cable railings, which kept the open-air feeling and led to the sleeping loft above. Simply furnished with a queen-sized bed, and an upholstered chair w/ottoman. The rafters are low-pitched so caution standing up out of bed!The main living room had a sturdy log frame futon that converted into a full-sized bed. Loved the bent-wood rocking chair and repurposed desk that worked comfortably as a small table for 2.The lantern type lighting fixtures throughout the cabin seemed dim at night, consider adding a floor lamp or a small table lamp for reading?There’s a full porch, with a wicker table & chairs on one end, but my favorite was the antique cast-iron bench perfect for reading or watching a momma robin fly to her nest to feed her chick in a nest just above rafters There’s easy access to the North entrance to Itasca Park and the Mississippi Headwaters. We kayaked, hiked & rented a pontoon boat in the park.And our hosts checked in with us to ensure we had a comfortable stay!"

"The home was perfect for our family. We used the outdoor kitchen almost daily. John responded very quickly to any of our questions. We would definitely go back to this home. We were disappointed it had been booked for next year "

"AWESOME property!!! We were here for a wedding and the location on the lake was top notch!!! Thank you!!!!"

"Amazing property, we had a family reunion with about 25 people and there was plenty of room for everyone. Maggie the owner was so nice and helped to make the trip very easy. We will rent from her again! "

"Decent place and reasonably priced."

"A beautiful cabin tucked away from the noises and hustle of everything. The cabin was built new and everything inside it is in perfect working order. The decoration is trendy and comforting. We highly recommend staying here. It is also located right on the ATV trails, so its in a perfect location. "

"Rooms are great, outside is a bit run down. Parking is very tight.. But love the convenience of checking in and it is close to Itasca state park and other cute towns. I would stay here again."

"The place is amazing we had a blast !!! A couple grill tools , a paper towel rack in kitchen would be great! The lift upstairs is a bit tight but we made it work . Overall everything it said it was !"
