Scenic Cabin Overlooking Trout Run

Perfect place for fishing trip. Beautiful view over the stream. Great access to many of the areas activities while still having a rustic experience. I’ll be back!

Rustic 1 room cabin in a beautiful location, fun and quirky. We will probably go again next year!

This cabin was a real disappointment. Photos can be misleading and this property owner did his best to dodge the fact that this is one room with a giant bed, a closet size bathroom and a kitchen that truly had no space to prepare food. I looked back at other reviews and saw that people had been complaining about the busted screens, missing window cranks and lack of kitchen basics back in May of 2024! This 3rd generation owner is a disappointment to his parents and grands. He should step up to the plate or turn it over to someone that will clean this cabin up. It is not what we expect from VRBO.

Always love the peace and tranquility here!

Great.

It was a quiet place and perfect location for solitude. The cabin had a lot of charm and the cows grazing nearby was a nice touch! It was also great to take our dog with! She loved it!

Beautiful and peaceful, perfect for weekend getaway! Only wish we could have stayed longer!

We’ve been staying here a couple times a year for the last 3-4 years and absolutely love it! We will continue to go back again and again! It’s an absolute glorious place to be.

For a romantic get away it is perfect small quant and a beautiful views we loved yhe peice and quit highly recommend

The best part of this cabin is the old adage: location, location, location. It is situated on a hill overlooking Trout Run Creek, a picturesque trout stream. The stream flows through a cattle pasture that separates the cabin from the stream. Admittedly, the cows were adorable and didn't pay much attention to our presence (aside from an occasional side-eye from the HUGE bull). The cabin and it's furnishings, however, were not as charming. The cabin is described as being one bedroom. This implies a bedroom. There is none. It is a one-room cabin with a bed in the living area. The decor is varnished exterior plywood covered with road signs, animal heads and, inexplicably, empty lard cans suspended from the ceiling. It's an interesting mix. Importantly, if traveling with family, there is no wifi and hence, no internet. The listing also says there is a TV, but we found none. Be prepared to entertain yourselves in the evening. Luckily, we brought cards and a cribbage board. Still, my son had an assignment due at school and we had to drive to town for internet so he could work on it and upload it. Also not present: no spices or other kitchen niceties. No salt, no pepper, no sugar, no cooking oil, no paper towels for that matter. Be prepared to bring everything you may need to cook and eat. Note: there is also no counter space for food prep. The hot water heater supplies enough water for a short shower, that pulses hot and then cold. It's a fine cabin for a guy fishing trip.

This cabin is set on a bluff overlooking Trout Run, a premier brown trout stream in the Minnesota Driftless Area and a green valley where cows graze. Access to the stream is across the street from a park within 1/4 mile. The large picture windows allow for great bird watching in the huge oak canopy they overlook. It was a beautiful view. The mattress was newer & bed comfortable. The air conditioner is noisy but cooled well. The collection of vintage signs covering the walls was fascinating. Sadly, maintainence and deep cleaning of the cabin seem to have been neglected for a few years which diminished the experience. Repairing the torn screen on one sliding glass door and adding a screen to the other one, fixing some windows so they can be cranked open, and a fresh coat of paint on the deck would add value. The kitchen lacked a can opener, a paring knife, a covered casserole dish for microwaving and a baking sheet. The dented & scratched pots & pans need replacing and lids that fit. Mice are present - found new droppings on counter and chewed bread bag, then their nest in broiler drawer. Not unusual to get mice in the country, but traps or mouse bait are cheap and effective to control them.

We enjoyed the property .Provate. Nice view and spacious inside. The bathroom is tiny but suffice for an old style cabin in the country experience. Would recommend for a quiet, no frills getaway in the driftless area of Minnesota.

The cabins in a great location. And the host is easily accessible and a great communicator. Overall, the cabin was a great experience. The lodging can use some TLC. There were some broken screens and the picnic table is a little wobbly should be sanded down or replaced. Would’ve been nice to have Wi-Fi but not necessary. Would absolutely recommend this location if you’re looking to unplug and just relax and enjoy nature.

One of our fave places to stay and we will continue to go back. Thank you for your hospitality!
