Summer Breeze on Little McDonald Lake

We loved this little house on the lake while we were in the Detroits Lakes area hiking in 3 of the MN State Parks. The size and location of the house was perfect for us, and the furnishings were warm and inviting. From chilled bottled water in the refrigerator, to a sweet hadwritten note from the owners with the gift of a grilling mat, we felt like we were cared for as family. Being able to walk out the backdoor down to the dock in the early morning with a cup of coffee and watch sunrise was fabulous! In the evening, we enjoyed watching loons diving for dinner while enjoying our dinner spot on the deck. Hubby decided to take a serendiptous dip in the lake which was CLEAN and refreshing! I hope we can return again this time next year, and take the kayaks out on the lake for exploration and enjoy the serenity that this property and location provide.

My husband and I loved our stay. We brought our senior dog with us and he loved the water just like we did. Beautiful beach that I never left the entire time. The cabin was perfect for us. Very clean, well stocked and comfortable. I wish we didn’t have to leave.

We all were very impressed with this cabin, beach and super clear lake. The cabin was very clean, beds comfortable, nice supplies and a nice gas grill. The dock was awesome. Caught alot of fish off the dock, but found no walleyes. Owners nice and friendly, even gave us a greeting gift. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed a sweet family time at this cabin on the lake. Would absolutely go back. Owners were wonderful, cabin clean and well equipped kitchen, beach clean, nice dock and kayaks.

The cabin itself comes with almost anything a person could think of. The one thing I thought was odd is the owners live across the road, so they came to water the outdoor plants each day [yes it was disclosed that someone would be coming] but it still felt intrusive. She is SUPER nice, but it still felt odd. Lake is beautiful. Kids and adults had a blast.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lake home! Great host, well equipped and managed property, loved the location, sandy beach and clear water. Hope to get back next year!

My family had the perfect vacation. The owners are super nice and I appreciate their hospitality of sharing their cabin with others. You will not need to pack much as they have thought of everything to have in the cabin for your stay. The lake is beautiful. The kayaks are awesome. Fishing was fun. The best part was the cabin and the memories made with my family hanging out, playing games, swimming. Im already ready to go back. Thank you again.

Everything we could have needed was provided. We enjoyed the quiet and when grandchildren came the last day, they found plenty to do.

This was our second summer at this property and it was so relaxing and perfect! The owners are easy to get ahold of and are so warm and friendly! We are already booked for next year!

kept up very well..very nice, clean lake and a nice little clean cottage. Bathroom a little small
