Places to stay in Deer River

We had a great wonderful time as a family at the loft! It was snowy while we were there and it was the perfect warm and cozy setting. It was so peaceful and quiet. Our kids loved the “kid zone” in the basement and were very comfortable down there! We had several family foosball tournaments. The loft bedroom is lovely and relaxing. The cabin was very clean and welcoming. We were all happy! We hiked at Lake Bemidji State Park and drove to Lake Itasca as well. The cabin is tucked away but still close enough to things to do and stores. A great little trip!

Our family loved our stay and will 100% be returning. The hosts are great and the home was beautifully decorated. I liked the daily check-ins and local suggestions as well!

This cabin was adorable and everything our family of 4 needed for our weekend away. Everything was clean and cozy; the fireplace was exactly what we needed with negative temperatures!

Great place to stay. We had 12 adults and a baby staying here and there was plenty of room to mingle and a place for everyone to sleep. The host was responsive and very friendly. We came to Hill City for a wedding and enjoyed having our family at this home, and our extended family in the unit just downstairs. The surroundings were beautiful and we went on several scenic walks. I definitely recommend this Airbnb.

A truly magical escape! From the moment we stepped into this cabin, it felt like walking into a storybook. Every corner was full of love, thoughtfulness, and hidden treasures. It was like staying in a living museum—so many charming details to take in, quirky pieces to admire, and cozy nooks to explore. There was something new to appreciate each day. Our kids were absolutely enchanted! They spent hours playing with the games, LEGOs, army men, and other little gems tucked around the cabin. Their imaginations ran wild—and so did their energy (thankfully!). The surrounding nature was the perfect playground: long nature walks, climbing trees, watching birds and critters—it was nonstop adventure from sunrise to sunset. And after all that fun? The beds were like clouds. So comfortable, we all slept like logs every night. We are so grateful to have found this slice of magic and can’t wait to return. It’s more than a stay—it’s an experience you’ll carry with you long after you leave.

Cute place in a cute town. If you’re going to Grand Rapids, MN, stay at this place. It’s close to everything and quiet, and comfortable.

It’s a great space! Very clean, well renovated, and cute. Had some nice touches with the toiletries and Keurig that made us feel welcomed.

Matt did a great job describing the driveway and including a picture so that we didn’t drive past it. The location is very remote and so peaceful! We had everything we needed to cook yummy meals and were aware ahead of time that there was no dishwasher, which was just fine for two people. The water does have a metallic taste to it, even after being run through a Britta filter, so I would encourage bringing bottled water for coffee/drinking. The stars at night were incredible and watching the sunrise on the dock in the morning was a highlight for me. Would love to come back in the summer and use the canoe! We did some local hiking and loved the Thai food at a local restaurant nearby. WiFi and projector worked great! Highly recommend a couple getaway here to unwind and reconnect.

Margo was a fabulous host and the cabin is absolutely gorgeous! Rustic soundings with a well equipped cabin full of small touches that show what a thoughtful host we had. We went snowshoeing, bird watched, enjoyed the dvd and book collection, cooked great meals in the excellent kitchen, read by the fire, and relaxed in the jet tub. Margo also made our dog Roderick feel equally welcome with a dog bed and bowls and easy covers for the furniture so he could sit with us. We cannot recommend Margo and her cabin highly enough!
