Run away and decompress a bit at our 4 bedroom/2 bathroom luxury cabin on a lake (2,250 sq ft). You deserve it. Snooze in the recliner next to a crackling fire. Get relaxed in a warm jetted Jacuzzi bathtub soak. Try out some recipes you've been wanting to play with in the fully equipped kitchen.

A private campfire ring overlooking lake allows for stargazing, s'more sharing and tall tale tellin'.

About the host

Hosted by Kim & Big John Bowen

We built this cabin in 2003 with help from my folks (whose taste ran a little more fancy than my budget wished, but . . . ) :) There is a bio page about da big guy and me on our website crowwingDOTcom

I have taught Green Cleaning classes for the Community of Minnesota Resorts (CMR) during last 20 years. We use unscented non-toxic laundry soap on bed linens, provide chemical-free dish soap and bathroom foaming hand soap in cabins. Staff and guests appreciate our use of organic/all natural cleaning products (Thieves, Force of Nature, Dr. Bronner's, Ecos, 7th Generation, etc.) We do recycling and various other 'green' practices on the resort.

When Covid broke out in 2020, I was asked co-host a CMR class on cleaning practices. I spent hours and hours researching to share information found on CDC and EPA websites on approved non-toxic disinfectants which will work to mitigate Covid-19 (there are six recommended.) The resort has implemented numerous steps to deal with the current coronavirus environment. https://www.crowwing.com/covid-19-response-staysafe-initiative
