This was a fantastic property and the landlord extremely attentive to our needs. The huge, screened porch, with lots of comfy furniture, has gorgeous views of the lake. The kitchen was very well appointed and lots of seating areas even for a large family. Tons of hot water and lots of towels. There was a super canvas swing/seat down by the lake for quiet reflection. The ability to do laundry was a plus with kids. Landlords provide both a charcoal grill and a gas grill. There was a fire ring but it was too hot for us to have a fire. The house had whole house air-conditioning which was a must given the extraordinary heat and humidity during our visit. Blackhoof Lake is not really good for swimming from shore but Cuyuna State Park has two swim beaches that are crystal clear only 8 minutes away. The fishing was outstanding and the public boat ramp nearby if bringing one's own boat that can be tied up at the house's dock. There were board games galore, plus ping-pong and foosball. It was a short bike ride from the house to feed into the Cuyuna State Park bike system that can be ridden into town for ice cream or peel off to the mountain bike trails. The only downside was the bunk house had no air conditioning and was wet/damp. They did provide several large strong fans. We did not use it so it did not affect our stay, and in the colder months with heat and/or the fireplace I expect it would be just fine. It was the BEST. All in all- we can't wait to go back!!
