The Grounds

Soleil Pines encompasses 20, secluded acres in Northern Minnesota and features plenty of open and wooded terrain with trails that lead you through the property. A winding driveway from McDonnell Road takes you to a large, open parking area and an ample open yard with its own fire pit and horseshoe pits. There is room for other lawn activities including volleyball, croquet or catch. Stone and naturally worn paths wind through the property and lead you to other structures, streams and small hill that is great for sledding in the winter. There are many locations on the property that provide great escapes for reading, relaxing, viewing nature, playing or exercise.

There are plenty of walks, runs, bike trails and other nature excursions right from the property, or just a short drive from Soleil Pines.

The Hut

A short walk through the woods takes you to The Hut, a one-room cabin hidden next to a natural stream in the middle of the Soleil Pines property. An "escape within the escape," The Hut is a hand-built, pine log structure with its own wood-burning stove, electricity and no running water. The Hut sleeps two in a queen-size bed, lofted over a sitting area and features a porch and its own outdoor fire-pit.
