The Perfect Getaway! We spent lots of time in the beautiful autumn weather taking in fall colors in the surrounding state parks. Don’t miss The Lost Forty and the Mississippi Headwaters. Returning to our little cabin in the woods felt like a hug each evening when we returned. Small and well-thought out, Shell Cabin had everything you need without a lot of clutter. A grade on this VRBO!

This little cabin had an awesome movie selection and a really well stocked kitchen. We loved the dog-friendliness and the fire pit! Everything was clean, comfy, and convenient. I do wish that more of the windows had curtains. Overall very highly recommend this property!

Check in / out was simple. The property was very nice. The home had absolutely everything we could have needed. The yard was private and had plenty of room for our pup to run around & play. The BBQ, fire ring and firewood were very nice to have for use. We enjoyed our stay here in the peace & quiet.

Nice and easy

Had what we needed to make a meal and relax for a few days. With all the rain and humidity it was a little damp inside, but that's really just part of the Minnesota summer climate.

Relaxing!

This was such a great place to truly kick back and relax! It was comfortable having all you needed to enjoy a "home away from home." The sauna was a bonus to help a person unwind. There was a great selection of movies with a kitchen, which had everything to prep a fantastic meal. It was simply a fun place to stay. Would love to come back again!

Cozy Cabin!

The property was very clean and welcoming, and it had everything we needed for a great stay. The cabin felt very spacious and had an amazing movie collection, with plenty of blankets and a comfy couch to settle into. The sauna was especially great because it was -21 degrees during our stay! The bed was very firm for our liking, but that’s a personal preference. Also, there were many neighbors close by that weren’t apparent in the listing, and most of the windows don’t have coverings. Overall, a phenomenal stay and we would come back anytime!

Perfect cozy, relaxing cabin!

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin to celebrate our one-year anniversary. The property was peaceful, well-maintained, and surrounded by beautiful winter scenery. The cabin had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway, and we especially enjoyed the fire pit area for grilling and relaxing, even in the cold weather. It’s a perfect retreat for anyone looking to escape and enjoy nature.Overall, this cabin provided a memorable and relaxing experience, and we would love to return in the future.
