We had the privilege of gifting a honeymoon stay through Get Up North Retreats to some dear friends of ours.

While they were here… this happened.

He captured this incredible photo of a Minnesota loon at golden hour — red eye glowing, water perfectly still.

She captured the moment of him capturing it.

And honestly — that might be our favorite part.

Because that dock…
That quiet…
That space to slow down…

That’s exactly why Hatch Lake is so special for honeymooners and couples.

The still water.
The call of a loon echoing across the lake.
The kind of peace you can’t manufacture.

There’s something sacred about the Northwoods.
You unplug.
You slow down.
You notice things again.

That red eye glowing in the sunset.
That calm stretch of water.
That moment your spouse looks over and says, “This is perfect.”

This is more than a cabin stay.

It’s space to reconnect.
To celebrate.
To breathe.

This tiny cabin was designed for moments like this — early mornings with coffee on the dock, sunset swims, starry skies, and conversations that last longer than your phone battery.

We’re honored they chose to spend their first days of marriage here.

If you’re planning a honeymoon, anniversary, or simply need to reconnect — Hatch Lake might be your place.

Winter in Northern Minnesota slows everything down.

The woods go quiet. The lakes freeze solid. The air turns crisp and clean. Time seems to move a little slower here.

At Get Up North Retreats, winter is a season for togetherness. Days spent ice fishing or riding nearby snowmobile trails turn into evenings gathered around a wood stove, sharing stories, playing cards, and warming up after the cold. In our Hatch Lake Tiny Home, a private sauna becomes a place to unwind, laugh, and end the day feeling restored.

This is where families reconnect. Where phones stay down longer. Where conversations go deeper. Where simple moments — a crackling fire, fresh snow under boots, steam rising into the night air — turn into memories that last.

A cozy Tiny Home Cabin with Suana and a one-of-a-kind Dome Home with wood burning stove. Both designed for comfort, quiet, and meaningful time together.

If winter "Up North" has been calling you, this is your invitation.
