About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A Rural Tiny House Sanctuary!

This one of a kind 420 square ft tiny house is truly a rural Minnesota sanctuary! Nestled away in the quiet little town of Hewitt (pop 252), this artistically designed home and large fenced in yard will make you never want to return to big city life. With plenty of natural light, a spacious kitchen with large fridge/freezer, full sized electric stove, reverse osmosis drinking water fountain, high speed wired internet, queen size zero gravity bed, pullout full sized hide-a-bed, gas fireplace and washer and dryer; you have the necessary amenities to spend one cozy night or settle in for an entire week or more!

Yes this funky house is adorable, but what about the enormous yard including unique gardens, hammock, bee hives and fire pit! You, your family and pet(s) are able to roam free without a leash in your bare feet and depending on the season may be able to enjoy some of nature's bounty from the organic gardens and fruit trees. Bicycles and cross country skis are available for use on the trail located directly across the street and don't forget to bring your fishing pole to catch trout from the mighty Wing River that runs through town!

Beyond happy
We loved our stay here SO MUCH!!!! There is nothing we needed and didn’t have! It’s so cute and clean. My dog Frank and his dog friend Rupert were so happy in the big yard. Michael is so friendly and I felt very safe. This was such a great experience!

Truly relaxing
Michael made our stay wonderful. There were so many thoughtful gestures, such a bowl of water ready for the dog and cucumbers from his garden. The house is charming and filled with art and a really inviting ambience. We had everything we needed at hand, and the check-in/check-out process was seamless. We definitely want to return, hopefully soon!

A little bit of home...on the road
This is a beautiful respite for wandering travelers. Very purposefully setup cottage which is not merely functional and practical it is also a real peaceful stop. Our host was warm and welcoming. Thank you. The setting was quiet and comfortable. Thank you. The beautiful region of farmland and small towns, each with their proprietor's own twist on coffee shops were just great. Thank you. Center of nowhere with so much of everything near or close by. Thank you.

Do it in Hewitt
Michael is an amazing host. The Hollyhock Hewitt place is charming, super clean, a little quirky and quiet. There is a super comfortable adjustable bed. We did bring our own premium sheets. Michael invited us to a sound meditation with Tibetan bowls. The class is above his residence next door. We where very fortunate this was going on during our stay. Michael is very responsive and still maintains your privacy during your stay. Michael is an avid gardener and shared the gift of sweet grass plants for us to take home. Thanks Michael for hosting us.

Peaceful break from our road trip
This is our second time staying at Michael’s and it was as nice as the first. The yard space was a great place for us and our dogs to relax after a 14 hour drive and we got a great night sleep. Can’t wait to use the honey Michael left us!
