Cabin vacation rentals in Elk River

We had a fantastic stay and would absolutely return to Beth’s cabin. It’s hard to believe such an incredible lake experience is just about an hour from the Twin Cities. The cabin, while cozy and charming, had everything we needed. The backyard setup offered a stunning view of the lake and made for the perfect evening meals and hot tubbing. Just a small note for future guests: if privacy is a top priority, it’s good to know that one bedroom has a curtain and the other has a sliding barn-style door. It didn’t affect our stay, but something to keep in mind depending on your group.

We had a lovely peaceful stay. Very well equipped cabin, very clean and great amenities. Really enjoyed relaxing in the Hot Tub under the stars. Would recommend!

Had an “emergency” booking at the last minute and asked if it was possible to get access early. The hosts responded so quickly and were so accommodating to our request. The place was great with a nice “hangout” area and huge bedrooms. It’s a beautiful view and the hot tub is nice and warm and close to the house. Easy to find and nice and close to the cities but far enough to feel like a vacation!

Our stay at the cabin was amazing! Extremely peaceful with beautiful views. Katie was so nice and easy to contact! We’ll definitely be returning!

Very much enjoyed our stay at The Malbec! It's close enough to town to go do things during the day, and far enough out to feel like you're relaxing in the country. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable!

Warren was attentive and helpful. The cabin is quaint and comfortable. Very happy dogs were allowed without massive fees like many other places. Rustic is a good description as it has some updates but definitely in the older side but still very comfortable. I would definitely stay again.

A very nice place to stay for a weekend in Stillwater. The log cabin house is homey with wonderful views of Bass Lake. Robert meet us when we got there and went through the house and answered all of our questions. Would definitely stay there again.

It was a beautiful and relaxing time!

5 Stars – A Perfect Getaway! Loondocks Lake House was everything we hoped for and more! The home is exactly as pictured—clean, cozy, and beautifully maintained. The setting is peaceful and perfect for a relaxing escape. The host was incredibly welcoming and made everything easy from start to finish. If you’re looking to make lifetime memories with family or friends, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!

This lakeside cabin was a breath of fresh air! Enjoyed staying here with my two pups after crossing the country to play in a stressful golf tournament. The beautifully updated & well appointed space made me feel right at home and put me in a great state of mind for golfing. Rained during my stay but look forward to using the kayaks graciously provided during next stay. Thanks Dustin!

This quaint little cottage was perfect for our weekend getaway. The lakeview was gorgeous and it was lovely to sit outside and listen to/see all of the different birds. While most of our time was spent away from the cottage, it was the perfect place to come home to at the end of the night with the quietness of the area and the comfortable bed. Overall, a great getaway where we could relax and enjoy the beauty.

Cabin was great, especially the patio! Very relaxing weekend with the fam and dog

In need of a fun and flexible place to stay near some old college friend I returned to Airbnb to find this wonderful cabin! Worked out great, easy arrival, woke to great views of the river, coffee by the water…. Great way to enjoy my visit.

This cabin was exactly what we were looking for in our vacation- fun, quaint, peaceful vibes with beautiful surroundings. We loved the details in the cabin, and the recommendations for things to do and places to visit were perfect.

We enjoyed this cabin stay! It’s a nice little place if you want a mix of a peaceful get away but also want to explore the Twin Cities. It’s a small, quaint cabin with easy access to the lake. Neighbors are very close, so it didn’t feel as private as we had hoped, but overall a nice stay. It was a cool weekend but if it had been hot, it might be somewhat miserable as the AC doesn’t reach the bedrooms well. Clean & stocked well!

Trisha is a top notch host who is highly attentive and responsive. The cabin was clean, secluded, peaceful and exactly how described. The fishing was great, the lake access was on the property with a pier to fish from. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

This is a perfect place for families! Our young kids had enough space to explore and play and also have quite places for naps and down time. The older kids loved the lake and the lower garage play area. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you could need: nice knives that aren't dull, a crock pot, plenty of pans/dinnerware and utensils. The beds feel new and are very comfortable! Everything was very clear upon arrival. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great place, great location, it was very clean. My wife's love it. I will love to return back in the future.

Very cozy cabin! The neighborhood felt very safe and clean. Even though there were neighbors nearby, the place felt very secluded and like you were in the middle of the woods! Beautiful location, lots to do nearby, but also enough to do at/around the cabin itself! Definitely would stay here again!

Quaint and beautiful cabin setting. Lots to do around the area especially for avid climbers, hikers and nature explorers. The sauna was a blast and the beds were extremely comfortable. The aframe was very cozy and a great place to unwind and unplug. We will definitely stay here again when we’re in the area. Kayla and Josh were extremely responsive and flexible.

Our stay at Keith’s was great! Views of the water were wonderful. Check in was easy with the keypad, kitchen was well stocked, Keith was quick to respond when we couldn’t find things or needed help with the grill. As noted in the pictures and his description, one of the bedrooms does not have a door on it, and the walls don’t go all the way up to the ceiling. It gets all the noise of the living room/kitchen but it worked for us. We loved the kayaks and Keith even had a child life jacket! The water quality in the lake varied - not as appealing as I was hoping for swimming on our first two days but we had fun kayaking around the lake and after it rained on our last night, the water was much clearer the day we checked out. Note that part of check out is put all towels and sheets into the washer and start the washer. I don’t love that because inevitably I realize one has been forgotten and then have to figure out how to stop the cycle and add an item, but this is minor. Great stay!

Great place…plan to stay again. The owner responds quickly and is very friendly and kind.

We came back for our 4th maybe 5th stay and we were reminded yet again about how much we love this cabin! The views are amazing and the cabin is neat and clean. Can’t wait to visit again soon!

We had a lovely stay. It was nice to get early checkin and checkout was really easy (no extensive cleaning, etc.) kitchen had everything we needed.
