My family and I had an amazing weekend. There was plenty of space for 5 adults and 2 kids. Very clean and organized. My kids loved all the kids toys and inflatable water tubes/paddle boards already there which made packing that much easier. We also loved that we could dock our own boat right on the lake so we could take it out anytime we wanted. The water closer to shore was weedy and a bit mucky but got better further out so we could float and swim out there. Host was very responsive and so sweet. If you’re looking for a cabin and lake getaway but don’t want to travel far past the twin cities I would recommend this rental.

We had a great weekend. Even though the weather didn't cooperate, we got out on the pontoon as much as we could. But the house was very well stocked with games and fun things to do. Thank you!

Great group vacation!
We stayed in this home with a handful of friends while visiting town for a snowmobile race and everything went well. Neat private location just off the beaten path, home was clean and well cared for!

Great Family Christmas
The home was beautiful and very clean. Great views of the lake. We stayed for family Christmas and there was plenty of room for everyone, we had 8 adults a teenager and 3 kids 6 and under. Property owner was great to work with and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.

Successful Mom’s Weekend
We had an absolute blast at our annual mom’s weekend. We loved the property the minute we walked in and were able to do all of our favorite things: cook, do puzzles (thanks for providing!), have a fire and watch movies on the couch.
We will be returning next year!

Enjoyed our 4-day stay
We had a family gathering and enjoyed our 4-day stay! The VRBO definition and pictures of this property are a good representation of how homey and comfortable the home is. There are different areas for reading, games, just hanging out or anything else you may want to do. There is not a place to swim, but we knew this ahead of time and brought a small pool for the kiddos. The adults took advantage of the paddle boards.
The host was responsive and answered our questions. There were some very nice touches and surprises left by the host for us to enjoy. Almost anything you could need was there. I would definitely recommend this property. It worked out that it was close to the Twin Cities area where we were all from. Those that couldn't stay the entire time had just a short distance to travel.

Awesome cabin
Beautiful cabin with a great yard, gorgeous lake view, and large open spaces for family to be together. Tons of amenities and activities to use while there too! The host was great as well.

House was wonderful!
The pictures were accurate. The house was great! The lake was weedy and green but we made the most of it and went out far enough to have less weeds. The grill was being a little cranky but we were able to get it going for each meal. Shea was very responsive when notified.
