The hosts are friendly and very responsive. The house is located in a wooded area close to Itasca State Park and Park Rapids -- a wonderful location. The only suggestion our group has was that the hosts remove the plug-in fragrances throughout the house before guests arrive since some people have fragrance sensitivities (we unplugged them and that took care of the issue). Otherwise, it was a wonderful property, location, and stay in the Minnesota woods! ##### Amy P.

It’s their personal home and it is very well maintained. The bedrooms and living areas were very comfortable and created a great environment for family get-togethers. We used their pellet-fueled BBQ grill for dinner one night and enjoyed using their fire pit just outside by the driveway and the trees. It’s just a short 20 minute drive to Itasca State Park. They had a large screen TV in the bottom floor that was great for a family movie night. Highly recommend their home for a vacation! ##### edward p.

I prepared hobo dinners in the kitchen and the kids roasted marshmellows on the open firepit. Thanks for opening your home to us. Highly recommended. ##### Steven P. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie J. 18 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This home was everything my four sisters and I could have hoped for - and then some! It was clean, inviting, and beautiful! The kitchen was very well-equipped, and we didn't even have to buy coffee filters! What was especially impressive is that the host contacted me in advance to see if we planned to use the pull-out bed in the lower level and the bed on the four-season porch so that she could have them all made up for us (which she did!). The house is very roomy - whether you're gathering in the living room, the kitchen/dining room, or the lower level family room. We loved the four season porch and the two decks. It was also very conveniently located - just a few miles from the town of Park Rapids with its wonderful little downtown and shops, not to mention some great restaurants. (Thanks for the recommendations, Barbara!) We also drove just 10 miles north of Park Rapids to Itasca State Park, where you can see the headwaters of the Mississippi and literally walk across the river! They have a beautiful and educational Visitors Center and lots of walking paths. I cannot recommend this property highly enough! We usually go to a different destination every year for our Sisters' Trip, but if we decide to go back to the Park Rapids area, we'll definitely try to stay here!! ##### Debbie J.

From the moment we drove on this property, we felt right at home. The house is in clearing that is totally surrounded by trees, giving you those 'up north' vibes. There is a very nice fire pit area to sit back and take in the beauty and enjoy a campfire. The house is spacious but yet has a cozy feel to it. Every nook and cranny is decorated with unique pieces. The bedrooms are roomy and the beds/bedding comfortable. An enclosed sunroom with an attached covered deck was a great way to start the day and have our coffee. The kitchen is well equipped if you plan on cooking. We only stayed over a weekend, and there are plenty of excellent eating places in the area. Most importantly, the house is super clean! Speaking of food, dining out is fabulous. Friday night we ate at Clancy's (a recommendation by our hosts, it's on quiet Island Lake), Saturday morning at the Logging Camp that serves a family-style breakfast of eggs, sausage or ham, hash browns and all you can eat pancakes. A short ride for dinner took us to the tiny town of Dorset to Cabaneros that serves authentic Mexican cuisine. Sunday morning we ate breakfast at West 40 in Park Rapids. Check out downtown Park Rapids. Lots of fun stores! It was a pleasure to meet Larry and Barbara. You don't find nicer or more sincere hosts! If you don't want the crowded space of a hotel room, this is the place for you. We loved this property and hope to stay there again--only next time for a longer period. ##### Paula S.
