Tiny-home escape w/beautiful private beach on Deer Lake

Come enjoy Sunset Escape Tiny-home on the prestigious Deer Lake in Northern MN. You'll love this unique and romantic escape.

Work ~ Relax ~ Play! Enjoy solitude in nature for a couple's getaway or a fun family trip. The tiny home is a destination location in of itself on Birch Island on Deer Lake.

This tiny home sits on 3+ acre island surrounded by the beautiful blue water. It is located near a cabin but that said, this tiny home is situated to where you don’t see any of those structures from the front facing views of the house, so it feels very private and one with nature.

This modern tiny home has a loft which holds one queen bed and another with two twin beds. The loft is accessed by a normal rise and run staircase. You won't be able to stand in the lofts/bed areas as it is 4'6" (typical of a tiny home) but not really an issue since you really just sit in the beds up there, but important to note if you have any physical ailments.

The tiny home has its own private area, beach and ample free parking. Outside is romantic string-lit, equipped with 4 Adirondack chairs, propane BBQ grill and wood fire pit. Guests have access to their own private beach with 2 paddle boards and a tandem kayak during the summer months.

Just a few of the activities in the area:
Fishing
Biking
Golfing
Boating, Kayaking & Paddle Boarding
Snowboarding, Skiing
Sightseeing
Cross Country & Nordic Skiing
Snowshoeing
Hiking & Backpacking

If you need absolutely anything during your stay, please let me know! I am happy to help!

If you have ever wondered what it would be like to stay in a tiny home well here is your chance! Designed and built in Wisconsin by Escape Traveler.

-Cell service may be weak here, but texting via Wi-Fi works very well, texting via SMS will come in and out as well as signal for calling.

- The house is very much immersed in nature. Nature has bugs and animals. You may see both. There may even be an ant or similar such bug in the house. I promise it won't hurt you.

- Our Insurance Carrier requires guests sign an agreement for release of liability and a $300 security deposit is required.

Birthday getaway
This is the perfect spot for a cozy autumn getaway! My wife and I spent three nights here and loved everything about it. The cabin is very comfortable, vibey, and has everything we needed. The area is absolutely beautiful and felt private from our cabin, the fire, and the small beach/dock. Lee and Breanna were very responsive and gracious hosts.

October visit
Highly recommend. It's a private little spot. Like having your own island. The host was great and accommodating. The tiny house was clean and like new. We cruised the lake with the provided kayak and paddleboard. Beautiful!

Cozy and comfy stay in nature
We enjoyed our stay in Breanna’s tiny home on Birch Island. It was perfectly clean, beautifully decorated and absolutely everything a guest could need was provided. We used the fire pit (wood and starter provided) and the nice gas grill. Wifi and tv worked well. It was fun to experience a tiny home for the first time…this one was quite spacious. Just a few steps through the woods is Deer Lake…crystal clear. Relax in the chairs and listen to the sounds of nature. We heard the occasional loon. You can sense Breanna’s passion for hosting guests in this lovely home.
