Step back in time and escape to “Swedes Forest Cottage” — a charming, fully renovated home nestled in the heart of the MN River Valley.
Whether you’re here for work or play, this secluded bungalow offers the perfect escape for those seeking to disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature.
Inside, you'll find everything you need for a relaxing stay. Plus, our location is unbeatable — less than a mile from Grandview Valley Winery, Rivendell Cocktail Lounge, and the Iverson Tree Farm!
The space
This lovingly restored cottage blends modern and vintage elements to create an atmosphere that makes you feel right at home:
—As you step inside, you’ll find a small enclave for hanging your jackets and removing your shoes. Down the hallway, you’ll notice original artwork purchased from Belview’s Rainbow Antiques.
—To your right is a functional yet stylish bathroom. We provide all the essentials, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, washcloths, hand soap, toilet paper, and a hair dryer. And for your extra comfort on chilly Minnesota days, there's even a heated fan outside the shower!
—Behind the doors to your left is a washer and dryer with detergent and dryer sheets if you choose to throw in a load of laundry. This closet is where you’ll find the iron/ironing board and some cleaning supplies should you need them during your stay.
—The quaint kitchen is fully equipped with a fridge, stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee pot, Keurig, dishes, glasses, wine/cocktail glasses, pots and pans, silverware, utensils, dish towels, etc.
—The living room features a cozy fireplace and comfortable seating, perfect for curling up with a good book or watching a movie. For your entertainment, the cottage features a DVD player with plenty of DVDs as well as a Firestick to connect to.
—Off the living room, you’ll find a small office that houses a single, twin bed and fun games and puzzles.
—In addition, the living room leads to our fully screened-in porch which features both a comfort area and a picnic table, perfect for enjoying a meal or drink outdoors. Beyond the deck is a pathway to a small firepit and charcoal grill. Firewood for the firepit is provided, please bring your own charcoal and lighter fluid for grill.
—Climb the stairs to the landing and discover The Wildlife Wing, the first bedroom in this cozy cottage. The room has a queen-size bed, 100% cotton sheets and luggage racks to store your belongings. Step out onto the adorable balcony with a bistro table set, the perfect spot to savor your morning coffee or evening cocktail while taking in the views of the surrounding wildlife. We even provide a handy set of binoculars for close-up encounters with our feathered and furry friends!
—Split by a beautiful sliding barn door is the second bedroom, The Valley View Suite. This spacious room also has a queen-size bed, 100% cotton sheets, a full-length mirror and luggage racks to store your belongings. In addition, the room has a small closet with hangers and two small fans for each room.
Located between Sacred Heart and Belview, the cottage is within walking distance from the infamous Grandview Valley Winery/Pizzeria and Rivendell Cocktail Lounge, and a short drive to the Iverson Tree Farm.
No matter the time of year, this is the perfect place to create lasting memories. Book your stay today!
Guest access
Guests have access to the entire property, which is private and secluded.
For your safety, please refrain from using guns/hunting or entering any outbuildings on the property (sheds, barn, etc.).
In addition, we kindly request that pets be left at home. Bringing a pet into the home will result in a $200/night fee.
Other things to note
—Phone service here is very limited. Your best bet is it stand outside OR stand close to the North, driveway-facing windows in the living room.
—Please do not drink the water from the sinks (it is well water). Please enjoy the filtered water in the fridge for both drinking and making coffee.
—We do ask that our guests tidy up a bit before checkout, including starting the dishwasher, putting all used linens/towels in a pile and taking out the trash.

—Our cozy little cottage carries unique characteristics of an older home, such as windows that may be difficult to open/close, creaky doors, twisty stairs and an occasional bug that will sneak its way through the cracks.
We hope you embrace the charm these unique attributes bring!
