Wonderful stay! We loved having our "private" entrance over the covered bridge to the guesthouse, and the view of the bridge (especially at night, all lit up) was very charming and unique. The house itself was a good size for two people, but I could also see the location--with its peaceful walking trails and quiet creek--lending itself well to a solo writing residency, meditation retreat, etc. Although you have plenty of privacy, you don't feel too isolated with the main house close by. As a nature lover I was happy to spot sandhill cranes on our way in, a great blue heron in the creek, and hear barred owls at night while we sat by the firepit. The guesthouse seemed well-equipped for any season, which in Minnesota is always great to find. We also appreciated that we could bring our dog with us--she had a great time, too!
