"Ken's Cabin"
Located outside of Pine River, Minnesota on Lake Arrowhead, originally a 1930's log cabin, this family lake home has changed much, but it can still be the place where older character blends with newer charm. Connect with nature, restore your energy! Our lake cabin is named after Ken, the family patriarch, who, along with his loving wife, enjoyed many years of retreat here, including some retirement years. The family's eclectic tastes are reflected in the memorabilia, hand crafted furniture, collectibles and repurposed items. As a family, we also use this space. We watch birds and wildlife, sketch, read, photograph, go canoeing, watch the stars. (We also do chores, and those never stop.) We cautiously state that small children are a safety risk. The family mementos indoors are fragile; outdoors there is a hill and toddlers could be at risk. That said, we want our guests to be comfortable and allow the place melt to away the stress! This place is best appreciated by fewer people, because it isn't a large area. We also want to say, after receiving positive responses from guests everywhere, we want people to feel welcome, respecting some of the restrictions. It is really important, when making inquiries, to provide information and answer questions we might have to clarify the situation before accepting the reservation. The canoe will be available. There is also a one person kayak and floats. The lake has public boat access and the dock can handle small- medium -sized craft. The dock is short and the lake can be noticeably shallow at times, so larger boats are not suitable. The parking area can also be for outdoor games; there is a grill, fire pit, outdoor table, large deck, and inside there are games, movies, TV, books. The lake is, of course, available for fishing, dipping as well as boating. We have been told recently that the fishing is good, in spite of some weeds. Bass, bluegills, sunfish, walleye can be caught. Our lake, Lake Arrowhead, is comparatively shallow and weedy, but a channel into the deeper lakes (and where you would come if you had your own boat using public access) is just across from our property. We can be available for questions, by phone, text and/ or email. We have a housekeeper who can be available for any concerns that might arise, but we will leave a guest book of references that should be helpful. Ahead of visits, we hope to have a personal conversation with any guests who wish it. The neighbors respect privacy. The lake gets active with boats and fishing on some weekends, but often it is quieter than the larger lakes. The channel into the larger Whitefish lakes is easily accessible. Nisswa, Crosslake, Pequot Lakes, Pine River and other small towns have shopping, festivals, parks, golf courses, movie theaters and restaurants. There is no public transit that is readily available., although possibly there is a local but that connects some of the towns. These are rural communities. Once you park in a small town, many places can be reached on foot. Bike rentals are available in several of the towns. The Paul Bunyan Trail is a great place for bikes, walking and running. You can literally bike miles and miles on this trail, and it is well laid out, with Welcome Centers along the way. The local Welcome and Visitor Centers are great sources of information! Second hand stores are abundant and fun for shopping. Festivals are everywhere; and there is something for everyone. Truly, the area is full of beautiful lakes and activities that can keep anyone busy, but we hope you take the time to sit and listen to the loons!
