“We loved staying at Hillman House! Our group has been renting places for New Year’s for over a decade and this might be our all time favorite space.

Even with 18 people there was so much room to spread out and play games, cook group meals, and the field house with the pickle ball court was such an awesome bonus.

It was also nice how close this was to Mille Lacs Kathio State Park for people to go on day hikes if they wanted.

I would absolutely recommend staying here. The owners were also very responsive and kind. You can tell they put a lot of work and heart into this house!”

“This location was perfect for a board of directors retreat! It was secluded enough that we could get away from our daily lives to focus on our work but there was still plenty to do in the area.

The space was large and had several places for group gatherings and small areas for smaller groups of people to meet and work. The kitchen had everything we needed and more.

You could tell that a lot of work had been put in to make this place updated and welcoming.”

“We don’t want to give a glowing review because we don’t want to compete against others when we try to rent this property again. IT. WAS. FABULOUS! Our family (21 adults and 3 kiddos from Alaska to North Carolina, New Mexico to MN) LOVED this property.

We played endless pickleball games, held a pickleball tournament, used the paddle boards for jousting, held rousing foosball and billiards competitions, spent countless hours laughing and talking in the spacious kitchen (including a hymn sing) and other sitting areas.

DON’T come to this place if you want to be bored. And don’t interfere with our plans to rent it again!”
