Incredibly cozy book club trip

We had 11 girls stay on the property for a cozy November weekend it was the PERFECT getaway. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, they had the whole place set up and were quick to respond and help when I couldn’t figure out the fire place. We will absolutely be coming back next year if we’re able to!

Great house on a small lake

Our extended family had a great week-long stay. We were able to cook meals for our group of 10 in the kitchen and seat everyone together around the big table. The house layout worked well for different activities and games, whether we wanted to be together as a whole group or find a quiet spot to read. The lake was fun to play in and we made good use of the canoes to explore the area.

Wonderful

Our vacation spent at this cabin was exactly what we wanted. The cabin met our needs, the location was fairly private, the views were beautiful and the time with family was precious. We rented a pontoon locally that was delivered to the boat launch and we had a wonderful time touring the lakes. We also took advantage of the kayaks. Fishing off the dock proved to be very worthwhile, as we caught large and small mouthed bass, crappie, blue gill and pumpkin seed. Most were good sized, and would have made a good meal, but we had fun with catch and release. We highly recommend this lovely cabin for your family getaway!

Wonderful Retreat

Even though the weather didn’t really cooperate for our stay, we greatly enjoyed the property. The hot tub was luxurious and our 4 year-old loved the books, games and puzzles that were available. The screened in porch and kayaks were nice touches as well. Would definitely recommend and consider going back.

Perfect large gathering space!

This property was lovely for our family of variety ages and interests! Great spot on the lake for so many activities - boating, kayaking, playing in the sand, hot tub, game space, grill-outs, campfires and more! Lots of yard space (although fairly sloped). Things for babies and 60 year-olds alike. Even with not so great weather, there were great spaces for us to play games and make great food inside as well. So many pros about the space! Kitchen was also well-stocked with everything we needed. Only suggestion would be to get some decent toilet paper! The lake was also pretty weedy during our stay but a storm had been rolling through. Thanks for sharing your spaces with my family!

Great Family Getaway

Really great property for a family or group gathering. The house was great with 2 levels to hang out in, screened in porch, and awesome area to hang outside. The kids loved the hot tub and roasting s’mores by the fire. We would definitely recommend this property.

Summer family trip

My family of 8 adults and 4 children had a wonderful week stay in June. The house held us all very comfortably. The screened in porch was perfect for morning coffee, afternoon naps, and cocktails in the evening. The beds were extremely comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. Also lots of refrigerator space. The patio was wonderful! The owner was very responsive to all our needs. Overall it was a fantastic experience!

Family reunion and pink hat tribute

Best lake house of the 4 we have rented in central Minnesota. The kayaks, swim platform, screened in porch, hot tub, beach towels and life jackets supplied, sandy beach area for the kids, and plenty of room for 6 adults and 3 growing boys was perfect. Also the lake was warmer for this time of the year than expected and we had 80 degree days all 7 days. No mosquitoes to speak of. An extra kayak or two would have been nice We finally got the temp difference between the upper and lower floors to even out after playing around with thermostat. We have no lakes like this to rent on in Ohio

Lovely!

This was the perfect place for a family girl's weekend! We had 7 people including grandma and had plenty of space. The location is very private and the lake views are breathtaking. We enjoyed the hot tub, a walk through the woods to a country park, cooking our meals in the kitchen and had plenty of space to do a puzzle and play games. The hosts are extremely responsive, organized and have thought of all the little details for a clean and cozy stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would love to come back in the summer.

Extended family gathering

We wanted a place for our extended family to stay near Annandale after a funeral. It was a great place to gather for meals, story sharing and card games. It was cold but a few people even used the hot tub. I will say that the gravel road to reach this house was ice covered and I would recommend a SUV or a vehicle with higher clearance in winter. The driveway was also icy; however, owner had someone come and salt and sand for us.

Wonderful home!

It was a wonderful home! We’d highly recommend staying here. Only adjustment we’d make would be access to someone who we could pay to clean more than just sheets upon exit. Cleaning wasn’t hard but for someone else to come in and finish cleaning serving plates and tossing any remaining food in the fridge would have been great to ensure cleaning met the owner’s needs. Note the home had more in the kitchen (foil, Tupperware, etc) than other homes we’ve visited which was great!
