Perfect Location for Itasca State Park
Larry and Barbara were perfect hosts for this home secluded in the woods just north of Park Rapids, MN. It’s their personal home and it is very well maintained. The bedrooms and living areas were very comfortable and created a great environment for family get-togethers. We used their pellet-fueled BBQ grill for dinner one night and enjoyed using their fire pit just outside by the driveway and the trees. It’s just a short 20 minute drive to Itasca State Park. They had a large screen TV in the bottom floor that was great for a family movie night. Highly recommend their home for a vacation!

This home was the perfect get away to meet my parents for a long weekend. Tucked in the woods, it was full of charm and had everything we needed. I loved how clean it was and the way it was beautifully decorated. Thank you Barb for being an excellent host and communicating with us.

Glamping among the trees!
Loved this property! The home is beautiful and welcoming. Secluded in the trees it provided the glamping experience near the park and nature activities we were looking for! Enough space to fit two families comfortably and a kitchen space we adored! The fire pit was a great way to end the night with s’mores!

Great location and value!
We loved our stay! We had a large group (4 adults and 4 kids between the ages of 5 and 13) and there was plenty of room for everyone. Barbara was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. We spent our days in Itasca State Park and took advantage of the spacious kitchen to prepare meals and hang out in the evenings. Our whole crew usually stays in a vrbo each August and this might be our favorite one yet!

Wonderful stay in the woods
When the kids were younger, we were frequent visitors to Itasca State Park. As a birthday wish, my now grown daughter asked the whole family to return for a reunion-type visit. There were 7 of us in total and this house was fantastic! I prepared hobo dinners in the kitchen and the kids roasted marshmellows on the open firepit. Thanks for opening your home to us. Highly recommended.

Up North Get Away
Flowers and Gardens, decks and 3 season porch, spacious rooms, immaculate and decorated adorably, comfy furniture and beds, fire pit patio looking up towards the moon and stars, tree lined driveway and yard. Everything you need to satisfy a much needed get away with family, even the high rise toilets and whirlpool tub was a hit! Our up north vacation was complete because of this home away from home. We will be back for sure!

Amazing home in the woods.
From the moment we drove on this property, we felt right at home. The house is in clearing that is totally surrounded by trees, giving you those 'up north' vibes. There is a very nice fire pit area to sit back and take in the beauty and enjoy a campfire. The house is spacious but yet has a cozy feel to it. Every nook and cranny is decorated with unique pieces. The bedrooms are roomy and the beds/bedding comfortable. An enclosed sunroom with an attached covered deck was a great way to start the day and have our coffee. The kitchen is well equipped if you plan on cooking. We only stayed over a weekend, and there are plenty of excellent eating places in the area. Most importantly, the house is super clean! Speaking of food, dining out is fabulous. Friday night we ate at Clancy's (a recommendation by our hosts, it's on quiet Island Lake), Saturday morning at the Logging Camp that serves a family-style breakfast of eggs, sausage or ham, hash browns and all you can eat pancakes. A short ride for dinner took us to the tiny town of Dorset to Cabaneros that serves authentic Mexican cuisine. Sunday morning we ate breakfast at West 40 in Park Rapids. Check out downtown Park Rapids. Lots of fun stores! It was a pleasure to meet Larry and Barbara. You don't find nicer or more sincere hosts! If you don't want the crowded space of a hotel room, this is the place for you. We loved this property and hope to stay there again--only next time for a longer period.

I booked this home for an extended family vacation to Lake Itasca. I chose Larry and Barbara's because it seemed like the best place when compared to the other local choices. But I had no idea *how* great it would be until we checked in!! We had a marvelous time, and wished we could have spend more days in!! If you're looking for a quiet place with kind hosts, plenty of beautiful and tidy rooms, and a vacation to remember, pick this one!
