Birchdale Cabin | Private Lake, 65 Acres of Woods + Canoes & Kayaks

9 Bedroom Cabin in Birchdale, Grey Eagle

Fuller Life Retreat is a 9BR/6BA home set on 68 acres with a 55-acre private lake. Perfect year-round for family gatherings or weekend getaways. Enjoy vibrant fall colors, winter snowshoeing and ice fishing, a gourmet kitchen, indoor & outdoor games, canoes and kayaks. Peace, space, and connection it’s all here. The home has A/C in the common space, is deep-cleaned after every stay, and offers a true Minnesota lake experience, where natural elements like pollen or a spider web may appear. It is a secluded home bordered by a Wildlife Mngt Area. Fuller Life Retreat has a legacy of Devotion, and Gathering this property has long served as a place of retreat and reflection. In the early 1900s, a group of Franciscan sisters established a presence on this land, building a monastery and eventually operating it as a spiritual retreat center. The home now hosts weddings, retreats, reunions, and private getaways, continuing its legacy as a place where people come to slow down, reconnect, and be present. Guests will find private lake access, forest trails, open indoor gathering spaces, and simple, spacious accommodations. Whether you visit for a weekend or a special event, Fuller Life Retreat offers a peaceful and meaningful setting to restore and remember what matters. Guests have full access to the entire main home, sauna, private dock, fire pit gathering area, and 68+ acres of trails, woods, and open lawn. The seasonal bunkhouse with wet bar and bathroom is also yours during warmer months. Pontoon on site for rental. I give guests space to enjoy the property privately, but I’m always available by message or phone if anything comes up. You’ll receive a detailed welcome guide before check-in, and I’m happy to assist with anything from directions to local recommendations. Fuller Life is yours to enjoy—but you’ll never feel left hanging if you need anything. Complete privacy. Nestled up to State wildlife area, across the street from a cornfield. You will not be disturbed during your stay. 15 minutes from town with shopping, dining, etc. 1.5 hours from Twin Cities. 30 mins from Saint Cloud Fall and winter are some of the most peaceful, beautiful times to be here. Snowshoes are provided for exploring the property’s private trails. The fire pit remains accessible year-round, and the nearby bunkhouse becomes a cozy warming house. Ice fishing is excellent on the lake. Local snowmobile rentals are available nearby. And when the outdoors slows down, the inside of the home shines—with a gourmet chef’s kitchen, beautifully appointed bedrooms, and all the space you need to relax, gather, or just stay warm in style.
