Paul’s Lakeside Cottage
Paul (and Piper 🐶) are absolutely delightful! The cottage was clean & peaceful. The stars felt alive, with how dark the skies were! I'll be back! Paul & Piper, Thank you!!!!

The cabin was in great condition and the property is beautiful. We loved standing down by the lake at night and having an amazing view of the stars. Paul is a fantastic host and has gone above and beyond with added touches to make the stay better. Would definitely stay here again!

Paul's Cabin
Beautiful piece of property, with beautiful sunrises. Cabin had everything you could need. We had a great weekend there. Paul is one heck of a nice guy, and goes above and beyond as a host. And Piper is one of the sweetest dogs I've ever met. We'll be back to visit both again.

Nostalgic Minnesota lake cabin experience. Simplicity and serenity at its finest.

Fantastic Location, Cabin, and Host
Paul has an awesome cabin and is an amazing host. The cabin has a comfortable full size memory foam mattress, a full kitchen and bath, and multiple sitting areas (including two futons and a comfy recliner). There are also two camp chairs on a covered deck. Paul offers a ton of great amenities to use during your stay (in case you forget to pack stuff) including citronella candles, bug spray, extra toothbrushes, and a couple of chargers, books, board games, cribbage board, and a smart TV. The wifi also works great! You get linens, towels, and he leaves some bottled drinking water since the well water has a high iron and mineral content. It seems that he has thought of just about everything to help make your stay better. There is also a canoe, life jackets and paddles available to use.
The property is secluded. Paul is building a house nearby and that's the only person you see (plus an occasional visit from his loving pup Piper...which we looked forward to each morning). Paul is a kind person who loves meeting people. We truly enjoyed getting to know him and he has great suggestions about local music and nightlife in the area. The cabin has real locks on the doors and basically functions as a small house (Paul used to live there before he built his new home)
I felt safe on property (and around Paul) and would feel comfortable recommending this location to single female travelers. I was traveling with my husband but would have no worries about returning on my own.

Paul’s Lakeside Cottage
Paul's place was an amazing piece of paradise. We feel so lucky to have found this gem. We loved it so much, we extended our stay! That should say enough...but we have to say more!!! Paul so generously let us use the canoe and took us out on his boat. The cabin is so cozy, perfect for two, but quite comfortable. We enjoyed cooking and reading in the beautiful sitting room, and spending the morning on the dock. We'd love to return! Thanks, Piper and Paul!
