This Remote Retreat In Minnesota Is The Best Place To Spend A Long Weekend

On your next adventure into the Driftless Area - or if you’re just looking for a relaxing, unplugged weekend away from it all - you’d do yourself a favor to consider Heritage Hideaway. This tiny house is truly a unique place to stay in Minnesota Bluff Country. In fact, we think it’s one of the most unique places to stay in Minnesota - check it out!

Heritage Hideaway is a solar-powered tiny home near the Root River in the Driftless Area of southeastern Minnesota.

The whole property is one room, but it can accommodate, if necessary, up to four people on a bed and sleeper sofa.

Even in the relatively small area, there’s ample space for both living and meal prep.

Although there is no running water to the property, 10 gallons of fresh water are stocked in the home at the beginning of each rental.

This also means that the toilet facilities are outside - a well-maintained outhouse that’s just a short walk away from the Heritage Hideaway.

If you’re coming to unplug and work, the cabin is well-equipped to accommodate you.

Or, if the point of your stay is to relax, you can just put your feet up in front of the wood stove and think wonderful thoughts.

We’re sure you’ll agree that Heritage Hideaway is the perfect place to unplug in Bluff Country. For more details on the property, including current rates and availability, or if you’re ready to make a reservation, check out Heritage Hideaway’s VRBO listing. Close to the charming town of Fountain, this vacation rental is an ideal spot to set up base camp if you’re heading out on the Root River State Trail. While in the area, take some to learn more about the fascinating history of Minnesota’s Driftless Area and its karst geology.
