Third Year in a Row!
We have always liked this little cabin. The lake is great and the fishing is good. Julian is quick to respond and always does what he can to ensure his guests enjoy themselves. The cabin is located within walking distance to most things in town and also the beautiful Wobogon trail. It’s nice there is watercraft available to rent nearby. Coin laundry in town open 24/7; pack your own towels!

We had no problems with anything. The whole experience was easy and uneventful. The property owners were great to work with. We had everything we needed and when you get to enjoy someone else's home, they want you to feel at home. Sure, they made not have what you have at home, but you CAN improvise and sometimes thats even more fun. The view, the amenities, close to downtown, rentals - we want to come back! Thank you!

Webs and bugs
We had to clean the tub before we could use it, there were spider webs and a variety of bugs. The deck was the same way. The outdoor pictures did not represent what we found.

Cute Fishing Cabin
Having no towels was inconvenient, the grass was knee high and the poison ivy was a concern. Outside of that, cute place and perfect location for a family wedding at Crocked Willow.

Long weekend at the Lake
Cabin was RIGHT near the water as advertised. Quiet neighborhood with a quaint little public beach a short walk down the road. Loved the fire pit as the weather was a little chillier than we anticipated for mid July (highs in the upper 60s). Thanks for a great stay 🙂

Cozy cabin on a great lake
Julian is an excellent host. He provides plenty of paper goods and clean linens. The lake is awesome. My only suggestion is to make more room in the kitchen cabinets for guests to put their food. We will be back :)

Long weekend at the lake
The cabin was great. Everything was very clean. The owners have the cabin stocked with more things than I’ve ever had in other rentals, it seemed like they really wanted us to enjoy our stay. The only negative is that if you want to spend your time on a beach this is not the rental for you.

Family Fun Time
We truly enjoyed this cozy cabin. The cabin was very well stocked with paper goods and it had adequate bedding. We had a few very hot days so we appreciated the cold air conditioning. The wifi worked great. The sunsets were absolutely gorgeous. We rented jet skis from Alexandria Jet Ski and they were a blast. The lake is awesome and the views extraordinary. We enjoyed all the nice chairs, picnic tables, grill, and fire pit provided. We also rented the owner’s fishing boat and the neighbors pontoon. We highly recommend hiring Curtis, the professional fishing guide from the area, to help find the best fishing spots. We caught large walleye and northerns. On one of the rainy days, we drove into Alexandria and enjoyed the shopping and restaurants. Of course we tried the ice cream at Tip Top in Osakis too. We also used the laundromat just minutes from the cabin which was safe and clean. Julian, the property owner, was such a great communicator and truly went out of his way to ensure we had a nice time and everything we needed. We already booked our next stay and can’t wait to come back. Thank you!

We had an amazing time! Great cabin. The kitchen was more than well stocked, the beds and pillows were cozy, and the AC was crisp and cool the whole time. One thing—make sure to bring your own towels as they are not provided.

Nice
The property was nice. View was great. Huge amount of lawn space to play games, have fire, etc. Definition of linens must be different for different people but had to bring own towels. Sponges provided for cleaning but no wash rags. Bonus: paper plates, plastic silverware and cups provided. That made for easy clean up.
