Cute little Boathouse.

Nice and clean boathouse. The chickens and ducks that roam around are very entertaining. The owners are very receptive to you if anything is needed. Very nice place to stay.

Long weekend at the Boathouse

Wonderful, cozy little place with a full kitchen. Great view of the lake and decor was so cute. The place was very clean-we met the host and he was so friendly and helpful. Nice sized bathroom, cute living room with bed and extra spaces to sleep. It was a great little get away on the coldest weekend in 2 years, lol. Bring your slippers in the winter-the heat is great but the floor can be a bit chilly-understandably. Wouldn’t hesitate recommending this place or going back myself!

Boat house

The boat house was a cute place to get away. Its very quite. The owners are amazing. If you want company or to be left alone they respect it. They might even take you on the boat and go for a night time swim.

Family Vacation

My wife, myself, and our two daughters enjoyed our week at the Boathouse. The space was perfect for our family of four. The queen size bed was incredibly comfortable for my wife and I. Our 11-year-old slept on the twin sized pull out sofa and our 7-year-old slept on the twin sized inflatable mattress. The kitchen is fully equipped and the gas stove is a wonderful feature. There is also a propane grill outside that we used as well. We were greeted by the owners and their family of ducks and chickens upon arrival. The boathouse is directly on the lake behind the owner's home. Our daughters loved swinging from the tree swings, swimming in the lake and playing on the Lilypad while my wife and I used the kayaks that were provided. The location is excellent for hopping onto I-35 and driving into the Twin Cities only 45 minutes away, which we took advantage of during our stay. We loved our time at the boathouse and our daughters were already talking about when we could come back!

Relaxing retreat

The boathouse was very cute, looking out over the serene Fox Lake. We were not able to take advantage of the kayaks and paddle boat since we had our dog with us. The property had games, books, and many other extras in case you forgot to bring something. Our host was very friendly and gave us great info. We look forward to the next visit.

Relaxing

The boathouse is directly over the water. Opening the windows created a relaxing breeze with the lapping sound of the water. Beautiful property. Modern decor and clean! We didn’t take advantage of the fire pit by the water due to high winds. We were able to see a bit of the northern lights! I would recommend this place. The owners are friendly and accommodating.
