Perfect Location for Giant's Ridge!
We had a crew from a few places over Minnesota meet up for a race weekend at Giant's Ridge. We were able to all get to spend some much needed time together to catch up, all while having plenty of room for gear and being less than 10 minutes from the hill. The home was clean and Kris was so accommodating!

Great Skiing Get-Away
We loved this property and its location to Giants Ridge. We enjoyed quiet morning coffee by the fireplace and low key evenings in the basement. If we get the chance, we would stay again!

Great house for a group
We had a wonderful time at this property - very convenient to Giants Ridge, while still a lot of space and things to do for those that preferred to stay back and relax or play games on site!

Holiday Trip
We picked this cabin as it was close to Giants Ridge and we couldn't have been happier with the location. Only about 6 minutes away from Giants Ridge. Overall House was great. The upstairs was a nice chill area by the fireplace. While downstairs was a fun hangout spot with the TV and game room along with a bar area and sauna! Overall was a great experience. Hopefully we can make it back again!

Holiday getaway
Worked great for our party of 10. We had so much space to be together, but also get away if we wanted to read a book. Would definitely book this again!

Healing and Even Better than Imagined
12 of my friends and I stayed here for my 30th birthday. For many of us, it was our first time at any sort of cabin especially one that was so nice. We've all had a lot going on in our own lives so it was awesome to get away and spend quality time with loved ones. Some of us even cried from joy at one point. The cabin truely exceeded our expectations. Due to being so new to everything it was great that the host was increadibly quick to respond to any and all questions. I would highly recommend staying at this great location.

Great Family Fun
We were 3 families with ages ranging from baby to grandma. We had an amazing time and would definitely come back again. There were PLENTY of indoor spaces for us to hang out. Legos could be played with on the upper floor while baby crawled around in the living room downstairs. Parents could enjoy the sauna and jumping into the icy cold lake. Canoes and Kayaks were easy to put in, and lifejackets were available in all sizes. So many games and things to do indoors, like Ping Pong and Fuseball and old video arcade games. This was helpful since it was rainy on most of the days. A beautiful view of the fall colors!

Excellent Stay
Had a wonderful family vacation. Grandkids enjoyed the play equipment and all enjoyed the lily pad. Lake was shallow and had a sandy bottom. Pontoon was great for touring the lake and anchoring near the sand bar for swimming. House was perfect for family. Little ones especially enjoyed PacMan!

Family Vacay
Had a wonderful stay at this house. Lots to do inside and out, which was great because a few days the weather was not great. Ended up having a ping pong and air hockey tournament. Kids had fun fishing, swimming, and hunting for crawfish. They let us bring our dogs who also enjoyed taking evening pontoon rides and swimming. Again, this was house is amazing.
