Thank you for the positive review and we're delighted your family could share time together at the lake home. Barb is wonderful host and we sure appreciate her welcoming presence and knowledge of the local area.
-Craig & Jessica
This immaculate Lakehouse is perfect for an extended family getaway and has everything you need for fun on the lake and a comfortable stay. Barb is terrific. She is resourceful and there if you need her but gives you plenty of space and privacy. Perhaps the best rental I have ever stayed at.
Wonderful family vacation that accommodated a gaggle of young kids
Our multi family vacation was comfortable, fun, and relaxing. Check in and out was simple. The house was beautiful, and comfortable with lots of spaces to isolate noise and activities. We will definitely be going back!

Thor,
We appreciate your positive comments on the review of the home! Yes, we've tried to create several spaces throughout the home, both exterior and interior for groups of various sizes to relax and chill.
Also, my son is curious if you left any Thor Ragnarok memorabilia at the cabin? Evidently, the lake cabin which Tony Stark stayed at in Avengers Endgame, outside of Atlanta is a serious hit, and we'd appreciate that type of red-carpet attraction. Hopefully, Loki doesn't start messing with the place now.
Joking aside, we are happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you and your crew again in the future!
-Craig & Jessica
This property fit our family’s needs and then some. The cabin had everything we needed, including lake toys, great sleeping quarters and a well stocked kitchen. The cabin is beautiful and well taken care of. We absolutely loved this property and would recommend it to anyone. The greatest bonus was Barb’s fantastic management of it!

The cabin was absolutely beautiful (even nicer than the pictures, which is hard to believe!). The lake and fishing were fantastic, tons of games, and "toys" for both kids and adults, kitchen was stocked with all of the essentials and more. Barb the property manager was amazing, and really went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. She even dropped off dilly bars for the kids one day when it was raining! We are already talking about a return trip next year!

Perfect!
My sisters and I had a relaxing winter getaway in this beautiful home in February. We spent our days cross-country skiing at Maplewoods State park, only a short drive away. It was so nice to come "home" to this gorgeous, peaceful and well-maintained property. The home was warm and cozy, had all the amenities that we needed for a get-away time together: large great room table for spreading out our jewelry-making projects, wifi so we could play our favorite Spotify playlist, great kitchen, oven and serving area, and comfy furniture to relax on. The sunset views of the lake are spectacular! Oh to live here year round! Craig and Jessica are great hosts and really have their guests comfort in mind.

House is beautiful, clean & plenty of space for everyone. We loved the view of the lake, the Sonos music throughout the house & dinners on the deck. Barb, the property manager, was very friendly/responsive on any questions we had. Kids had a blast, would highly recommend!

Yes, Barb is an outstanding property manager and we are blesses & grateful to have her helping out. I'm happy to hear you were able to download and operate the Sonos system; it's great for relaxing with guest and family! We worked really closely with our good friend Kelli, an architect in Perham (Harmonious Architecture) on the window placement, internal and external views and home placement to take advantage of the lot and views. I'm stoked you enjoyed your stay and appreciate your keen awareness that design makes a difference!
Peace,
-Craig & Jessica
We couldn’t be happier with our stay! From check in all the way until we reluctantly left. This place is a great escape to re connect with your family and truly enjoy life. We couldn’t have been happier and can not wait to come back!

It’s quiet and perfect for families with children. Lots of lake toys and a big yard for kids to play in. The bonfire down by the lake is also lovely. Would definitely recommend!

We enjoyed our time at this cabin! We spent a long weekend with family in this beautiful home exceptionally designed and furnished. Our kids loved the bunk room and all the essentials the cabin had to offer. The deck was really nice with our little ones and we loved waking up to having coffee in the porch. Plenty of water sport activities and toys for all ages. Thank you for making our trip enjoyable!

We had a great last minute vacation here. My kids loved all the lake toys and the bunk room and the nerf gun set up. I loved hearing the loons call out at sunset and wonderful deck/porch upstairs where we spent a lot of time.

We're really happy to hear the kids appreciated all the little details and extras of the home. Yes, on quiet nights the loon calls, bald eagles and peaceful sun sets are enjoyable. We really appreciate hosting you and hope to have you visit again! -Craig & Jessica
We spent several days with friends at this property and were so impressed. The lake views, gorgeous architecture, cozy fireplaces, high ceilings, perfect-for-kids bunk room, Sonos music setup, and location helped made this the perfect getaway. Barb was a very welcoming host, and the local snacks and treats were a special touch. We can't wait to visit again!

Stayed at the property over Labor Day weekend. Property was beautiful and very clean; however the water had a horrible smell. We ended up washing fruits with bottled water and nobody wanted to shower. Property manager came & water softener was completely empty, which seems should have been a regular maintenance item. The water did not clear up for our stay. I followed up after our stay with property manager prior to leaving review.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 March 2020
Nicole; thank you for the positive comments regarding the home, it's beautiful layout and it's cleanliness. I apologize about the smell of the water and I appreciate you bringing this issue to our attention. I have talked to the property manager about keeping the water softener full and we will do our best to make sure the softener never runs low again. Please rest assured that our family and friends have been using the well water (cooking/drinking/showering) for over (4) years with no issue. We appreciate you visiting our cabin @ Long Lake and hope you will consider our home again for a future stay!
Our family loved our stay at this awesome lake home! It was spacious, clean and so comfortable. The beautiful house sits on a lovely and spacious lakeshore property. We would stay her again and highly recommend it!

Great place for a family gathering
This cabin was the perfect place to get our family together. We had 7 adults and 5 children in our group. The setting is beautiful and private so we weren’t bothered by the neighbors. The main level is open and a great place to get everyone together. It’s large enough we could have a group playing games in one area, watching a movie in another area and a group sitting in the kitchen area cooking or visiting around the large bar. There is a large deck accessed by three patio doors. Part of it is covered so when it’s raining we could still sit out there. Perfect place for morning coffee or watching the sunset. The lower level had a seating area and tv so the teenagers could have their own space, plus a large open area for the smaller children to spread out their toys. The bunk room was perfect for all the cousins to sleep in the same room. The bunks were large enough for my 6 ft+ grandson to sleep comfortably. Waking each morning in the master suite with a gorgeous view was an extra treat. The lake is beautiful, great swimming, good fishing and a place on the shore for a campfire. The cabin was supplied with everything we needed. There are places in the area to buy supplies, eat out and enjoy the character of the area. This is a place to return to again and again.

We are hopeful you will appreciate all the passion we have put into this lake getaway.
Why they chose this property
A quiet lake, large spacious lot, impeccably constructed home, and close proximity to both MN Highway 10 & Interstate 94.
