Can't beat homey ski retreat adjacent to Afton Alps and scenic Afton State Park.

Comfortable home is walking distance to Afton Alps Ski Area and Afton State Park. It is the perfect place to gather with friends and family, while enjoying the great outdoors. Large kitchen with new appliances and tons of cabinet space. Cozy up at either gas fireplace located in spacious family and living room areas. Even a separate den/bedroom that can be used for a quiet hangout or kids space.

Close to Afton, Stillwater, Hastings, and Hudson, WI, all riverfront downtowns with great shopping and dining. 30 minutes to the Twin Cities!

Great place for downhill skiing, hiking, biking, cross country skiing, and snow shoeing. All located in the scenic St. Croix River Valley.

Beautiful all 4 seasons of the year. Plenty of parking onsite if you trailer a boat. Public boat launch within 5 miles. The Fall is apple orchard time in Denmark Township, 4 fantastic orchards within 7 miles. Some of the best fall colors anywhere. Walk to Afton State Park or just a few miles to Saint Croix Bluffs Regional Park and the Carpenter Nature Center.

Access to a two car attached garage. House has Ring cameras outside only for security on front and side entrance.
