Escape to this oasis in the heart of Itasca County Lake Country on ATV and Snowmobile Trails!
This Lodge in the deep woods is tucked down scenic country roads between two lakes. Watch the wildlife walk past from the comfort of the porch or deck; or snuggle up inside to take advantage of views of the lake and all manner of wildlife through the wide windows.
Cell service is limited but we have excellent Wi-Fi for just the right amount of connection.
THE SPACE
The Escape consists of two lodgings, grand four bedroom Lodge and the cozy two bedroom Cabin. We have separate listings for each. This is the listing for the Lodge, you can also rent the Cabin for larger groups if needed – contact us for a discount on dual rental.
The Lodge an cabin sit on opposite ends of the Escape property, far enough apart to provide quiet and privacy if a different group is staying at the Cabin.
Escape from it all – Cell Service is extremely limited. The Lodge does have good WIFI available. The residents of the cabin may access it from time to time from the front porch/carport area.
LAKE INFORMATION
Our dock is located on Little East Lake (we do NOT have direct access to East Lake) which is classified as a Natural Environment Lake by the MN DNR. This means that it provides a fantastic habitat for a multitude of native plants and animals but it can also be subject to low water levels and abundant plant growth which can dramatically impact its suitability for human use. When the water is high enough the lake is wonderful for paddling but not for motorized boats – especially on our end of the lake. And while the ducks, geese and fish (and some of our canine guests) LOVE swimming in it, we do not have a spot for people to swim. We hope that you can appreciate and delight in the majestic show that this lake puts on for us each year as much as we do!
