About this property

Four of your bedrooms are located on the 2nd floor. They are the Winterberry, Royal Fern, Aspen and Red Oak. The St. Croix and Sugar Maple Rooms are located on the lower, walk-out level. The Owners' Suite, with bedroom, bath and living room is on the main floor.

While our address is Hinckley, we are located 23 miles east of Hinckley, near the St. Croix River and the Wisconsin border. We are just four miles from Danbury, Wisconsin.

We are an easy two-hour drive from the Twin Cities, St. Cloud or Eau Claire and just over an hour from Duluth.

Besides enjoying the view, perhaps with a real-wood fire in the fireplace, guests enjoy watching the birds at feeders outside.

From May through October, two omplimentary Golf Carts are provided for touring the trails in comfort.

Your well-behaved one or two dogs are welcome.

Two casinos are nearby: St. Croix Casino in Danbury and Grand Casino in Hinckley.

Four-wheeling? Bring yours or rent from Throttle RX Rentals in Danbury.

St. Croix State Park, Minnesota's largest, has activities in every season. Crex Meadows Wildlife Area in Grantsburg has great wildlife watching, particularly during spring and fall migrations. Forts Folle Avoine in Webster, Wisconsin is a reproduction of an 1803 fur trading post.

Daughter’s Retreat

Beautiful building, location and trails! It was a wonderful place to gather for our yearly retreat. It was nice for each of us to have our own bedroom with a bathroom. The hosts were very responsive with any questions we had. There were many touches that created a very welcoming atmosphere. Thank you for a wonderful place to get away!

Exceptional stay!!!

This vrbo was so much more than we expected! John and Sandra are very thoughtful hosts! They think of everything ....and so many little details that make your stay wonderful! We only stayed 2 nights which wasn't long enough to do everything that there is to offer! Between taking the golf carts out on the trails to bon fires at night. Games to play inside and exploring the grounds and the wildlife, fun was had by all!

Awesome experience!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The lodge had spacious rooms, amazingly soft sheets, and plenty to do. The amenities were excellent and we felt this was a prime hospitality experience. We hope to be back soon!

Another Amazing Stay

We had another amazing stay at Woodland Trails Lodge. This gorgeous home makes for a perfect place to gather with family or friends - everyone has their own space, ensuite bathroom, and beautiful accommodations. The kitchen is enormous and great to cook in. The large fireplace in the living room makes the home cozy and we sat there every morning and evening to chat. The owners and staff are accommodating, have excellent communication, and helped make the stay wonderful a second time. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by John & Sandra O'Reilly

When we first bought land here, there were no buildings, only one power pole with an electrical outlet. This meant the tent we were using for weekend getaways could have a fan in the summer and an electric heater in winter.

The first building was the garage located next to to what is now the Lodge. On weekends, we would roll a tractor out of the garage, roll some carpet down, put a screen over the the garage door opening and it became our dryer, warmer tent.

The next building was a one bedroom cabin built on a crawl space where the Lodge stands today. When we were about the build the Lodge in 2003, the cabin was moved across the field to its present location. A walkout basement with two more bedrooms, a bath and a TV room was added.

The Lodge was originally build to be a B & B which we happily ran for 15 years until COVID hit. The best part of running the B & B was the guests, some of whom came back more than a dozen times.

Now both the Cabin and the Lodge are available for rent by families and friends. We still get enjoyment out of seeing guests use and enjoy the facilities like the trails, the pond and the fire rings, one outside both the Cabin and the Lodge.

Why they chose this property

Our property is unique with lots of woods and over three miles of private trails.

Guests enjoy watching wildlife out the windows including birds, such as the pileated woodpecker, squirrels, both red and grey, and deer.

The views are great. From the Cabin, guests can enjoy the view of the St. Croix River Valley. From the Lodge guests can view the pond, which we call Grace Lake Too, and the birds at feeders.

When guests take a paddle boat or canoe around the pond, they are surprised that it is bigger than they first guessed.

Guests can enjoy the private trails while hiking, snowshoeing or driving in comfort on a complimentary Golf Cart.

What makes this property unique

We like to describe both the Lodge and the Cabin as "Nice places to stay with something to do" inside and outside. Both are upscale facilities with all the modern convieniences and tasteful, rustic decor.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome and, if trusted by their owner, can run freely off leash.
