Stillwater
Five cabins · Northern Minnesota
Two hours from the city. Forty years from it.
Wood-fired saunas, no Wi-Fi in the cabins (plenty in the lodge, if you must), and lake water clear enough to read through.
Check dates
From $180/night · 2-night minimum
[ MAP — lake shoreline with 5 cabin pins ]
Cabin 3 · “The Point” · open Aug 14–17
On the water
Every cabin has its own dock, canoe, and an unreasonable sunset.
Stocked to stay put
Firewood, cast iron, coffee from the roaster in town. Bring food and a book.
Winter is the secret
Sauna, lake plunge, repeat. January books out by October — you've been warned.
“We came for a weekend and left a deposit for next year.”
