Cute cabin equipped with everything we needed.
Our family enjoyed the amenities at the Upper Hay Getaway. The paddle boarding and kayaks were awesome. Big kitchen table for puzzle building and games. Fabulous view and great fishing! Can’t wait to stay again.
We enjoyed our stay at the Upper Hay Getaway. The lake is just the right size for kayaking or sitting on the dock enjoying the loons. The cottage has a spacious main living area/kitchen and a nice spacious bathroom. We enjoyed the fire pit and there was even a little doggie bed for our dog. We enjoyed the neighboring towns of Pequot Lakes, Nisswa and Cross Lakes. Communication with Doreen and Jon, our hosts, was exceptional. We really enjoyed our stay!
The Upper Hay Getaway was great for the relaxation and fun that was so needed. It is located on a private lot with enough trees between the neighbors. The cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. There was everything for us to use: towels, fully stocked kitchen, grill, and even bug spray (which was needed). We noticed someone else wrote a review that they ran out of toilet paper and wood for the fire wasn’t supplied. We bought our own toilet paper (no big deal) and found a few places just a mile away that sold firewood for pretty cheap. The nature was great with loons, osprey, and woodpeckers. The only thing we would have changed was the lake area. We love fishing and swimming and the area in front of the cabin was too shallow and weedy for us to really do either. If you have a boat that would be your best bet. Overall it was a great week and a comfortable stay!
Rustic yet modern amenities. Peaceful..Nice lake and atmosphere.
Cute cabin...only complaint the lake was very weedy and the grounds could use some maintenance,like raking, weeds growing out of steps to the swim area and gutters cleaned out.Also bring your own firewood and toilet paper.
This was our second stay and again we were met with responsive and helpful hosts, well thought out amenities, and a perfect location. Plenty of room for everyone and we felt right at home! We fished, used the kayaks and paddle boards, cooked over an open fire, relaxed and even hiked the lookout Fire tower in Pequot Lakes. We would love to put another trip on our calendar!
The hosts have worked hard to ensure the comfort of their guests and communication was prompt anytime I asked a question. Although we didn't use the outdoor toys/equipment ourselves this trip, i.e. lily pad, kayaks, paddleboards, they are readily available for the more athletic younger visitors! Our family used them during a previous visit several years ago and they were a hit. I thoroughly enjoyed the porch early morning and evening, with a book and a coffee or beverage. .Beautiful lake view. I prepared over a dozen meals, and the kitchen did not disappoint-- well stocked and organized with everything I needed. I really appreciated that all the switches were clearly labelled so no guesswork as to porch fan or kitchen lights, etc. Cabin was clean and tidy upon check-in, and plenty of towels, linens if needed. Games to play, good WiFi. It was a very hot week, so grateful for air conditioning!! Easy access to Paul Bunyan trail, nice stores in-town at Piquot Lakes or Nisswa. The A-Pine restaurant nearby had good food for dine-in or take out. {Try Granma Bettie Jane's Pies!} I highly recommend this property for your getaway, for quiet and peaceful relaxation or more ambitious water play. You won't be disappointed. We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you!
Beautiful location and lovely cabin stocked with everything you would need for a get-away! The cabin was perfect for our group (3 adults and a 13 year-old GSD), and we wouldn't hesitate to book again at any time of year. Communication w/the owners was bar none the best I've ever experienced!
We enjoyed our stay. Kids now want us to buy kayaks. Would recommend
Our family enjoyed staying at Upper Hay Getaway. Cabin is very nice and privacy of the location is great. Enjoyed the lake during the day, barbecuing, fires and playing games at the large dining table. Owner is very nice and quick to respond.
Charming, cozy, comfortable cabin with lake access and kayaks and paddle boards. The Upper Hay Lake has fish!
Our stay here was very comfortable. We enjoyed the enclosed sunroom, everyday. The size of the cabin was perfect for us, with bedrooms on either end of the cabin, along with plenty of space in the kitchen for gathering. Jon and Doreen were great communicators keeping us informed all along the way. We would highly recommend this cabin to others. Thank you
Everything was spot on! Quiet location and wonderful cabin. We we're able to fish many lakes in the area and relax.
This cabin fat exceeded our expectations! As soon as we arrived we fell in love with the place. The open layout for the kitchen/dining room/ living room was fantastic to make the space feel large, and that we weren’t walking all over one another, and the bedrooms/bathroom was very large! We loved the spacious backyard, and had the most beautiful view of the lake. We are already looking at dates to go back when the weather is even warmer to take full advantage of everything this cabin has to offer!
