Arlyn is a great host. She responded promptly to any questions we had, and met us personally to acquaint us with the cabin and the area. The cabin was incredibly well stocked with all kinds of food, much more than you would expect. You can tell this is really a home that is also rented out, as opposed to an income property. It's a very cozy, comfortable and relaxing place. The one oddity is that the bedrooms are tiny, and have a low ceiling over the bed. No big deal, but it is a bit unusual. Basically you just sleep in the bedrooms and hang out in the nice living room with a lake view. Also no real TV, but that's part of the charm. The cabin is just yards away from the lake, and there are some charming little towns a 15 minute drive away (Wayzata and Excelsior). All in all, a very relaxing, charming little cabin by the lake.
