Amazing place! Perfect for a big group to spend a weekend.
10.0 / 10.0
This is the second time we have stayed at A place in the Woods for a family reunion. Wonderful accommodations for the 18 of us that stayed there, and the 20 others that came for a day. Our host Tammy was very helpful and responded immediately to questions or concerns. Lots of room inside to gather and still be able to spread out. The kitchen and refrigerator are industrial size and well equipped. The dining area could sit 30 easily. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms clean and well stocked with towels etc. The pool table and foosball were a big hit with the teens. The grounds were well taken care of and spacious. NO mosquitoes! Great firepit. The pavilion and picnic tables allowed us to gather and eat outside too. Many games and play areas outside. We were very happy with our stay and will be back.

This was our family's second time to stay at this property. We had a fabulous time. The kitchen area makes meal prep a breeze for a large group and the outdoor grounds gave us plenty of space to play yard games and volleyball. Great way to spend a long weekend!

We stayed here with our adult cousins for the weekend. The place was perfect for everyone to hang out and enjoy games inside and in the yard. Tammy went above and beyond to make the stay incredible. There were even more games and amenities than listed and we had an amazing time!

The accommodations and layout of the property were perfect for a bunch of friends to hang out. The industrial kitchen was stocked with pots and pans, utensils, and plenty of dishware. It was nice to walk around the property, play yard games, and sit around the fire. All-in-all it was just what we needed for a low key but fun weekend.

This place is perfect for a large group stay! Plenty of room to sleep! And lots of bathrooms so there's no waiting. It was so clean and we had everything we needed there, and lots of yard for any games. Tammy is wonderful to work with! I also loved that they had cute merchandise to purchase there, it was a great touch! Definitely recommend this Cabin in the Woods!

Our family had a blast during our stay at Mille Lacs Lodge! The kids and adults all enjoyed the spacious lodge and outdoor areas. Memories were made making s’mores around the campfire, playing volleyball, cooking meals together in the kitchen, and playing wiffleball in the large outdoor space. Tammy (the owner) was very responsive to all of our questions and quick to provide help when needed. We loved our time there and highly recommend it!

Exceptional family vacation in Minnesota. Everyone was thrilled with their time spent at Tammy's Millie Lac Lodge.
A kitchen that has it all with a cooler that holds anything you need to keep cool and a freezer that let us get all the Ice Cream the Grandchildren could eat. So much fun! Campfires every night, a playground and outdoor shelter with plenty of room for fun meals outside. No insect bites was a huge accomplishment and we will brag about that for years to come. (There is a magic at Millie Lac Lodge that will always be in our hearts and memories. Grandpa loved his vacation and was given the opportunity to enjoy 12 wonderful Grandchildren and family from five states.

We were very happy with our stay. The property had everything we needed. It was clean and spacious. There was a gas station near by if we ever ran out of anything, and state parks were close too for out door activities. Really recommend this property to others.

We're very impressed with the kitchen set up. Plenty of room for all our refrigerator and freezer needs. The gas stove accomodated many cooks at the same time. Pool table was a hit with everyone. The grounds were amazing where we roasted many marshmallows and did a lot of hiking. We spotted the infamous albino deer. There were many beds to pick from and a lot of games were played both indoors and out Playground was enjoyed the grandkids. A very peaceful landing spot.

I would give this place a rating of 11 with 10 being the highest rating!!! Tammy was wonderful to have as our host. Everything was spotlessly clean and comfortable. All was SO WELL supplied that we had NOTHING that wasn't available for anything we needed. The comfortable spaces indoors as well as the large lawns and play equipment outside made this the perfect place for our family reunion, from our college age granddaughter to our one year old! Did I forget to mention the great setting for the bonfire which we enjoyed one night? Our kids have all told us that it was a perfect setting for all being together, as well as each family having their own rooms. It was awesome! I would HIGHLY recommend A Place in the Woods for any group.

Great for large groups
We rented Mille Lacs Lodge fir a large family get together. The house was clean, grounds were well maintained and the property could easily accommodate a group our size (16). Tammy was responsive and easy to reach. I would recommend this property for anyone looking for a venue that can handle a large grill up of all ages.

Great place for family reunion
18 women ages 6-69 spent 4 nights here, and would again. It was unbelievably supplied, not only with kitchen items for both cooking and serving, but with a wide variety of things to ensure our fun: volleyball net, balls of all sorts, playground equipment, fire ring with lots of chairs - and even toasting forks! - board games, many tables of different sizes which we put to good use for crafts, jigsaw puzzles, games, eating, etc., pool table, and on and on. The rooms were big, there were plenty of bathrooms, and everybody had a bed! Communication with our hostess was easy and prompt. Wonderful facility!

Big Private Lodge
Great time at the Mille Lacs Lodge. Was a fun time there and hosted our group great. Kitchen was a fun bonus to have for feeding our group. Loved that a lot of games were already there to keep us busy. Would definitely return.

Combined Bachelor/ette Party Weekend
My fiancée and I wanted a large space to accommodate our entire wedding party and their significant others, and this lodge was perfect! The kitchen was spacious and easy to use, and the great room allowed us to all gather together when we wanted to, but there were enough nooks (like the pool table area) where we could split up into smaller groups, as well. We also loved how much space there was outside, and it was great that firewood was included for an easy bonfire! My only caveat is that the tap water, though potable, is a bit sulfuric in smell. So if you're put off by that, bring some drinking water. (It didn't produce any off-flavors in our cooking, however.) All in all, though, staying here was a fantastic experience. We just checked out this morning and I'm missing the place already.

Great place for groups!
We had an amazing weekend at the lodge with a group of friends and family to surprise my husband for his 40th bday! Plenty of room for 20 of us. A couple people even brought tents to sleep outside. We set up yard games in the yard, had a bonfire at night and played pool up in the loft! Tammy the owner was awesome and responded quickly with questions. The lodge was very clean and beautiful. Would highly recommend!

Group Party Old Friends
We had 18 longtime friends come up and get together this past weekend. This cabin was perfect for our needs. Plenty of room indoors and out, rain or shine. Well appointed and clean. Had everything you need. Scratch cooking for a huge group was easy thanks to the large kitchen, refrigerator and dining space. Would highly recommend.

Annual gathering
Awesome property, the pictures don’t show how truly beautiful and well appointed this place is. Been trying different spots for our gathering for years and think we have found our new home. Really nice bedding/towels and furniture made it feel like home. Everything you could need for cooking and cleaning and dining provided. Seriously the best place we have found. Thanks Tammy !

The lodge is gorgeous, very clean, and very well-stocked. The property is also gorgeous and nicely private, with plenty of outdoor toys to keep the kids (and adults) entertained. The owner was super helpful and responsive. We were already talking about going back next year before we left!

Famliy and cooks
Tons of space for 10 adults and 5 children. We played indoor and outdoor games. We hooked up Disney+ and had plenty of room for movie nights in the main livingroom. We took turns for cooking supper and ate outside at the covered picnic tables. Made lunches to take to the beach 4 of the 6 full days and didn't run into each other while moving about. Beautiful landscape and play area for kids. Town was close by for multiple trips to the store.
