Dock, Fire Pit & Beach! Expansive Ruth Lake Home

Yes everything was in good condition. Host wasn’t easiest to get ahold of.

The cabin is in a great location and the view of the lake adds to the beauty.

This is an extraordinary property with beautiful views on a gorgeous lake. The kitchen is stocked with pots and pans, but they are not clean. The house was not cleaned well before we arrived. We left it cleaner than when we arrived. For the last couple years the pool sticks with the gorgeous pool table did nit have tips on them. The owner was very responsive when the door was locked when we got there. He got us in immediately.

Second time we have stayed there and the house is great

Overall this was a beautiful, spacious home with great views and many places to both gather and to get away. I do want to provide more information on accessibility. The listing shows a step free entry and wheelchair accessible. This is not true. You can get in the house without any steps but you can’t get to any living spaces including two living rooms, the kitchen and dining area, the main bedroom, and game areas without needing to go up two steps. There are not any grab bars anywhere in the house so if you can get up two steps and don’t need grab bars, it will work fine for a wheelchair, but beware. There is also an excessive amount of taxidermy in the house which goes beyond what is shown in the pictures. We didn’t mind it, but go in with your eyes open. Overall we had a very good stay but were disappointed with the items noted.

I had a group of 20 people come stay at the home and it was amazing. Plenty of room for everyone and great amenities. The house was exactly as advertised but the only complaint I have is the lack of trash bags, extra towels, any kind of seasoning (salt, black pepper, etc.) and the communication wasn’t the best. Still a 9/10 overall just make sure to bring your own towels, trash bags and toilet paper as we ran out.

Incredible home with big kitchen area, huge living room, pool table, tables for games, great flat yard for games outside, awesome dock to pull up a boat! Sleeps a lot of people. We love it and Ruth Lake is gorgeous!

We were told most rooms have AC when in fact only 3 of the 8 rooms have AC. Only 2 of 6 burners worked on stove. Oven heat inaccurate. Screen windows/doors had holes in them. Not as handicap accessible as we thought. We loved how spacious it was. Never felt cramped. Pool table and fooseball was an added bonus. Reaponse of management team was

This place is stunningly beautiful, dock access is close, fire ring is close and the charcoal grill is big enough to accommodate our group of 14! We had a great time and would return.

We are a group of 12-15 that has a traditional of going to northern Minnesota each early to mid October. Given the larger size of our group, we normally rent a vacation property in cabin country. This was our first time at the Ruth Lake Retreat, and all agreed this was one of the finest locations we've had in years. It's a gorgeous property with a great number of bedrooms wonderful kitchen, pool table / foosball table, complete with amazing lake views. If the property is available next year, we'd definitely consider a return trip!
