Aitkin House | Cozy retreat on TWO Lakes for the price of one! 4 beds 3 baths + sauna

4 Bedroom House in Aitkin

Southcastle Cabin is on a very special, coveted lot in the northeast corner of Big Pine Lake in Aitkin County, Minnesota. The lakefront property features 132 feet of waterfront access to Big Pine Lake (635-acre, 78-foot deep, with public boat launch) in the front, plus access to Black Lake (60-foot deep, private) in the back. Both lakes are fishable and have dock access for boats. Big Pine Lake offers superior water clarity and a sandy, rocky bottom while the smaller and more secluded Black Lake is ideal for boating and fishing activities. The three-acre wooded property and adjoining land provides privacy and the opportunity for local exploration.
You will feel perfectly at home in this beautifully renovated cabin with interior views of both lakes at the same time from a cozy, modern living area which includes a master bedroom with private bathroom and two guest bedrooms. Air conditioned in the summer! As a bonus, the finished basement provides plenty of recreational and sleeping space for additional guests and/or children and is listed as the fourth bedroom. You will love the added feature of a sauna in the spacious basement bathroom with walk-in shower.
Included with your stay: A Samsung 4k UHD QLED television in the living room with Roku streaming device, a Sony 1080p FHD television in the finished basement with Roku streaming device, small TV in Master Bedroom and a dedicated wireless broadband Internet connection with the fastest connection speeds available in the area (SCI Broadband, 50+ Mbps). Also a gas-fueled fireplace to warm up the living room on a cold winter night. Bring and connect your own streaming or gaming devices to the spare HDMI ports or log in to your own Netflix, Amazon, Disney+, and other digital accounts using Roku guest mode for your "at-home" entertainment experience. A rowboat, paddleboat and recreational kayaks are included with the execution of a waiver/release during the summer season.
This very special cabin is a gem any time of the year. Escape from the city bustle for a weekend, a week, or more in the historic Minnesota Lakes Area for your own Minnesota Lake Vacation!

Summary: The owner reached out several times before our travel date which was very helpful as we missed the watercraft waiver but she caught it and so we were able to fill it out in time. It is a beautiful location between two lakes and wherever a person may be in the house the views were fantastic (lots of well-placed windows). The water in Big Pine Lake is bathtub clear so bring your good fishing gear as the fish are not easily fooled. As poor a fisherman as I am I still caught several bass from both lakes - dock fishing was surprisingly productive. Expectations were clearly laid out in both an email and on location which included a helpful list of things to do in the area. We felt like the owners really understood what we were going to need as guests and provided everything proactively including what they needed from us as guests. We had great family time in the kayaks, on the 3 season porch playing boardgames when it rained, watching movies, fishing, exploring the area, etc... I highly recommend this property to anyone considering a nice Minnesota cabin-on-a-lake vacation!
