Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Saint Croix River

Great cozy cottage with resort amenities. We used the canoe and kayak and brought out own kayaks at the private lakes. Lots of quiet roads to bike and little destinations to get to - pool, beach, restaurant, golf course. We swam everyday in the lake or at the pool. Great location to explore- so many great little towns from St. Croix Falls to Danbury to Balsalm Lake to Spooner with a lot of food choices. We even caught a ton of panfish ( but threw most back) and had a fresh- caught meal.

We had an amazing stay! The home was spotless, cozy, and beautifully designed—exactly like the photos, but even better in person. One of the highlights was definitely the hot tub—clean, private, and perfect for relaxing after long days of exploring. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, providing clear instructions and thoughtful touches throughout our stay. Everything we needed was there—from soft towels and comfy beds to a well-stocked kitchen. The location was quiet and peaceful. Whether you’re here to unwind or adventure, this spot is a perfect home base. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, comfortable, and memorable stay!

This rental truly feels premium and was a great choice for our long weekend getaway! The theming was tastefully extended to every corner of the place without feeling too overdone. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped with everything we needed for cooking our meals. Downstairs in the speakeasy and hidden entertainment room is where the place truly feels special! We loved spending time down there and it was really cool to find the room hidden behind the bookshelf. There was a cozy coffee shop within walking distance that we went to every morning and a locally famous drive-in that we tried on our last and would recommend. We can easily say this is a good fit for anyone looking for a quiet and fun rental in a great location!

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was beautifully decorated, clean, and had everything we needed. Loved the plants! We hope to stay again.

Joan, John and Tucker were exceptional hosts! Our stay was everything we needed after a long day of traveling. Joan was super responsive. Her and John were so accommodating for us and our pup! The yard was amazing, so private, we had a fire and let our pup explore the yard. The hummingbirds were a bonus to watch. Their place was super clean, had all we needed and more and was so quiet and peaceful. It was a bonus our pups got to play with each other, our pup enjoyed it so much, he hardly wanted to leave! Highly recommend!

Absolutely loved our stay! The house was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. Great location, peaceful atmosphere, and thoughtful touches throughout. We had an amazing time and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!

Can’t say enough about this cozy space, with a living room large enough to really sprawl out and plants perking out everywhere. Walkable and green neighborhood, Peter’s fantastic list of local recs for food and coffee and more — nothing not to love.

My friends and I stayed here for my bachelorette weekend and it was everything I’d hoped for and more! We were looking for somewhere quiet outside of the cities and this place definitely delivered. The hot tub was a hit, we fished off the dock (and actually caught something!) and the house itself was gorgeous. There were plenty of beds for 8 of us to buddy up and they were VERY comfortable. The kitchen and dining area were perfect for our large group and made it easy to socialize while preparing meals. Though it did rain most of our stay, the size of the space allowed us to enjoy each other’s company without feeling cramped. The separate apartment was a great bonus as well and offered some additional privacy, plus the one-time extra fee is very reasonable for what you get. Overall, I have no complaints about the location and our host was very responsive anytime we had a question that needed addressing. 10/10 experience and I hope to stay here again in the future!

We enjoy staying on Lake Callahan. Private and quiet location. Beautiful main house of Hostess and great cabin view and location on property. Fire circle and pier.

Definitely recommend this place! I stayed with my three sisters and it was just perfect!

Bob & Lisa’s home was very beautiful & we felt right at home! Bob came out & greeted us soon as we got there, showed us around, & we’re always willing to help if needed! They are such wonderful hosts! We’ll definitely be back in the future!(:

This cozy apartment was just what we were looking for. It was very clean and well decorated. It had a refrigerator which I didn’t notice in the listing. The host provided snacks, essential toiletries, and games. We had a question for the host during our stay and they responded quickly. We had a great stay!

Great place to stay! Everything is exactly how it looked in the pictures. Everything you’ll want to get to is within a 20 minute drive! Very helpful hosts!!

we had an unfortunate event happen but thankfully the neighbors and hosts were quick to help and help us solve our issue. great location, conveniently right between all the stadiums. deep bathtub with lots of hot water! comfortable bed with good pillows! coffee, pop, water and oatmeal provided!

I was on the road for 23 hours before finally arriving at Tina’s. It was my first time to Minnesota and I am very glad that I chose her place for my family and I. It was peaceful, clean, quiet and very homely. We slept so soundly. It felt as though I hadn’t left home in how at peace we were. Tina responded to any queries I had promptly. I was clean, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom is very clean. The only downside for me was that I didn’t book her place for a longer time. I am definitely going back for a longer visit. If you’re still reading this please book already before someone else takes your dates. You won’t regret it one bit! 😀

Andy was everything you could ask for in a host. He was very responsive and helpful but never intrusive. His place is lovely and very clean! The bed and linens in the main bedroom were extremely comfortable! The back yard had many unique features that, unfortunately, I ran out of time to take advantage of - next time for sure! Andy provides many thoughtful touches including a guidebook to the unit and surrounding area. So many interesting restaurants and things to do within walking distance and close to major highways when a car is needed. I highly recommend a stay here!

this was the perfect stay for my best friend and I! I will be back with my husband! peaceful, tranquil, it was perfect. thank you!

Our stay in Zimmerman was a wonderful break with our grandkids and kids. There is plenty of space, the location on the lake is fantastic and the amenities are great. Lots of bathroom items, kitchen was well stocked and the place had lots of extra blankets which was very much appreciated for early morning boat rides or sipping coffee on the deck.

I was looking for something special….someplace a little out of the ordinary to drag my husband off to celebrate our 46th wedding anniversary. When I say drag, I just mean he is a homebody and prefers to stay home, do lawn work and sleep in his own bed…going away for the weekend is not his cup of tea. When I saw the cabin on a lake made from a repurposed box car, I knew I had found a place to entice my old homebody! Sue and Jeff’s boxcar did not disappoint. It is in a peaceful lovely location, with a nice deck and just a few steps right down to the very clear and tranquil Cable Lake. I loved the eclectic decor touches, my husband loved the comfy bed and lakeside location. To seal the deal, my husband is a retired railroad engineer and instructor so the idea of living in a boxcar for the weekend was kind of appealing! It is spacious and has everything you could need for an enjoyable getaway!

A truly magical escape! From the moment we stepped into this cabin, it felt like walking into a storybook. Every corner was full of love, thoughtfulness, and hidden treasures. It was like staying in a living museum—so many charming details to take in, quirky pieces to admire, and cozy nooks to explore. There was something new to appreciate each day. Our kids were absolutely enchanted! They spent hours playing with the games, LEGOs, army men, and other little gems tucked around the cabin. Their imaginations ran wild—and so did their energy (thankfully!). The surrounding nature was the perfect playground: long nature walks, climbing trees, watching birds and critters—it was nonstop adventure from sunrise to sunset. And after all that fun? The beds were like clouds. So comfortable, we all slept like logs every night. We are so grateful to have found this slice of magic and can’t wait to return. It’s more than a stay—it’s an experience you’ll carry with you long after you leave.

Scott was friendly and helpful! Cabin 2 was beautiful and had a great view of the lake! Highly recommend and we will be back again!

Damian was a responsive and hospitable host. The cabin is gorgeous, the view was great, and the sauna was hot! Highly recommend and hope to be back soon!

A perfect and serene spot to relax, while still being very walkable to downtown Hayward.

The Blue cabin was amazing. David and Laurie were excellent hosts, very experienced in hospitality and hosting guests. They were also very respectful of our privacy, but also super responsive for any raising needs or questions. Our dogs loved the place and freedom to roam.
