Lovely Cabin
We had a great 2 night stay and spent most of our time in the state park. This was the perfect location to stay for exploring the headwaters of the Mississippi. There are not a ton of cooking items but enough to get by for a short time. If you are cooking meals and need something specific (crockpot, large pan, etc.), bring it with you or ask ahead of time. We didn't have any wash clothes or hand towels but I am sure it was just an oversight and we managed just fine without! The store on site is so cute and made the stay even better.

Big Timbers 1902 cabin
What a wonderful property! You can tell a lot of love went into this cabin, and they should be proud of how their vision of it turned out. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Lake Itasca state park is one of our favorites, and this was so close for easy visits. Nice quiet area and very cozy & comfortable. Just a short walk to the gift shop for ice cream treats after dinner too. The 1902 cabin is great, quality place to stay that we can recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Cabin in the Pines
Beautiful historic cabin set among the pines. Clean, comfortable, & quiet. Huge front porch which we utilized a lot. Water pressure good in the spacious bathroom. Beds & living room furniture were comfortable. Everything is provided that you need. We have stayed at many rental cabins & this is one of our absolute favorites. Will definitely be back!

My husband and I really liked the property and location, especially for the easy access to Itasca State Park. The property owners are nearby and helpful with prompt communication and information about the area. The stairs to the bed loft are a little tricky in the dark and you have to remember to duck your head in the bed loft. We left the bathroom light on at night for visiblity.

Perfect Little Getaway
We really enjoyed our time at Big Timbers! The 1902 cabin was so charming; rustic and historic structure with all the modern amenities you need! So well thought out for guests to make the stay easy and comfortable. The close proximity to Itasca State Park was what initially drew us to this location, but the charm of the cabin and the amazing service provided by the owners will Bring us back again! Definitely a must stay location if you're heading to Itasca State Park or just want some solitude in the wilderness.
