This was the perfect spot for our girls weekend! We went into town some to enjoy all that Mankato has to offer and left plenty of time to roam the area around the cabin. It is so beautiful and peaceful! We will definitely be going back!

A group of colleagues and I were in Mankato for a conference and wanted a place we could stay to take a physical and mental break from business. This was a perfect retreat. My only disappointment was that we weren’t able to spend as much time at the property unwinding as I had hoped! I think my family would enjoy this hideaway with the chickens and horses and look forward to bringing my family!

This was the perfect place for us to stay with friends and our 6 month old. I loved how the cabin was kid-friendly - they have a pack n' play, kids' books, games, a high chair, and much more so we didn't have to bring all of those things with us! The property is so nice and felt like home with the wide open spaces and farm animals. The cabin was clean and very nicely updated - it was easy to make ourselves at home. Carl and Ann stopped by to say hi when we checked in so it was also nice to meet the property owners and know that they were there if we had any questions. I would highly recommend staying at their cabin!

Beautiful, clean, spacious cabin. Even better than the photos. Great screened-in porch to sit and enjoy the view. Kids loved canoeing on the lake next to the cabin. Enjoyed the nearby waterfalls, swimming beach, and bison drive as well. Would definitely stay here again!

This place was so nice to stay at. It was much better than the pictures. It is close enough to some hiking and waterfalls as well as restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed feeding the chickens and playing with Brother the very friendly (but hairy) cat. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

We loved this cabin! It was so roomy and nice. I was so impressed by how clean it was and how well stocked it was! We all had plenty of towels and washcloths. We also had dish soap and hand soap. The kitchen had about anything you could think of. I am grateful to our hosts for the thought and care they have put into this property.

We stayed here with another family, and it was the perfect spot. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep comfortably. The kitchen was stocked with all of the basics needed for cooking family dinners. Enough room for everyone to gather in the kitchen/living room. Tons of space outside, including a screened in porch and a fire pit.
Property was very clean and everything was in perfect working order. No issues at all. Would definitely stay again.

Our small group celebrated New Year's Eve and New Year's Day at The Cabin at Lowell near Mankato, Minnesota. It seemed like the perfect spot to relax, explore, and celebrate another trip around the sun. And we were right! We very much enjoyed the eclectic mix of signs, posters, and antiques scattered throughout the home, as well as the overall cabin feel complimented by the rolling hills that surround the valley. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was spacious, the wood stove worked perfectly, and the birdfeeder was busy with visits and chatter from cardinals, bluejays, woodpeckers, and chickadees. Owls were also present after dark. On the second day, we snowshoed at a nearby park and later dug out the campfire pit. We spent about 6-7 hours gathered around the fire and were visited by "Brother," the property's adorable, friendly, and large barn cat. We approached cautiously at first but later sat on each of our laps for over an hour while a distinctive "lunar halo" moon shined above our heads. We'd definitely consider returning with more family for another holiday! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was clean, well furnished and cute. There was firewood waiting for us - we had fires every day. The hosts checked in with us upon check in and check out, made sure the drive and sidewalks were scooped for us. We look forward to returning and would recommend.
