The perfect escape for crafting and relaxation
Bluff Country Retreat offers a cozy and private atmosphere with 4,500 square feet for you and your group to relax, rejuvenate and get creative! Not a crafter? We also welcome groups who want to enjoy the beautiful driftless region of Southeastern MN. The Root River Bike Trail and historic Lanesboro are located just a few miles away. Our retreat is located on 80 acres of woodlands and native grasslands with miles of mowed trails throughout the property for your enjoyment. Bluff Country Retreat has the space and flexibility to provide accommodations to groups of varying size. We offer competitive rates and have a Bunk House available for rent that is great for couples, families / groups of 4 or less, or for larger groups who rent the house and need additional space. Be sure to give us a try if you are looking for a place to stay and enjoy the area and all it has to offer.

Derrick was super responsive to questions and requests. Check-in and check-out was super easy. Instruction was simple and clear.
In all honesty, we had a truly wonderful time during our stay. Derrick made our family-getaway a wonderful experience this summer. Bluff Country Retreat is a place where you will want to return year after year.
There's not a lot of privacy in the bunkhouse since everyone is sharing the same sleeping/living quarters, but we found it easy enough to just head outside to the porch (or use the firepit) after the kids went to bed, to create some separation. All in all, this was a nice, affordable place for our home base as we explored Lanesboro, Whalen and Preston during the day.

What an amazing place to kick back, relax, work on crafts, watch some fun chick flicks and have quality bonding time!
Over the top with charm and everything one needs for a getaway!!!
We will most definitely be back soon!
Thanks to the owners for creating a peaceful retreat in this beautiful countryside �
If you plan on coming out in the winter, I would recommend 4 wheel drive as the road out to the place got a little wild for some folks in our group when the winter storm came through in full force and gave us 8 inches of snow in a short period of time. However, this is most certainly not a complaint. The host had this road/driveway plowed in a more than sufficient amount of time.
My dad mistakenly gave it a 1/5 stars, he meant to leave a 5 : )
Derrick was a great host , very responsive and gave great instructions on staying at the bunkhouse.
Thanks for a great vacation!!
