Amazing place to stay on Rainy Lake! Great location close to Voyageurs National Park. Incredible view of the lake with grounds surrounded by deer, loons, and eagles.

Great House!
Great location on the lake! Good fishing from the dock! Host was easy to work with and very helpful.
This was a fantastic place to stay. Absolutely totally clean. No bugs no dirt noticed. The dock and back deck were amazing. This is a place we will visit again hands down. Our daughter caught a 20” small mouth bass AND a 21” small bass bass just off the dock. She is quite stoked with this trip. Lots of wildlife around. Mink?, deer, fish, ducks, Loons and quite a variety of birds.
Just as described and views even better. The property was clean, ample parking, and easy to find. Beds were super comfortable. Deck and dock are amazing. Definitely recommend this property and would return
We really enjoyed how close this property was to Voyageur National Park and steps away from Lake Rainey. House was very spacious and accommodating for 5 adults. It was a great stay
This was the perfect getaway, beautiful views, close to the park. House is spacious, comfortable and beautiful. The kids especially loved playing down by the lake. We were all sad that we couldn’t stay longer.
The house worked well for our group - two couples and three kiddos. It had everything we needed for cooking in and all the spaces to relax in and out. We rented a pontoon boat which we appreciated docking at the rental for making exploring voyageurs national park easy. We really enjoyed the trip and the cabin was great!
10 out of 10!!!
A beautiful place in every way! Fantastic deck and view, especially the sunset! Craig was very thoughtful and helpful making our stay everything we could have expected and then some! Our whole family would highly recommend this property!

Thank you so much for the review! We are so happy when our guests have as much fun on Rainy Lake as we do! And we agree - the sunsets are amazing and one of our favorite things about our home. Thanks again for the kind words and hopefully we can host you and your family again in the future.

Amazing house. Perfect for a family visit to the National Park. The house is newly updated, clean and well stocked. Access to the lake provides a nice place for fishing or bringing a boat in. The layout of the house for space for everybody both inside and out. Only disappointment, There was not enough hot water for the bath tub use.
We found the home to be well furnished, very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The lake views were gorgeous. The deck was a favorite hangout spot. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed with both major and small appliances. We were joined by our son and daughter-in-law and they loved it and want to go back again.
The property was wonderful. The layout was perfect for our family. It was fully furnished with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We had a slight hiccup with check in. We were sent the wrong door code but we contacted the host and the problem was taken care of.
This was a perfect mid week escape! The property has up to date features including a great kitchen with all necessary equipment. Loved the grill! We were on the dock every night for sunsets and it was the perfect view. Have already mentioned to friends that if we make the trip up north again we will be renting here again!

Hi, Jantzen -
Thanks for the kind words! Like you, one of our favorite things about our home is the kitchen. We love gathering around the island while cooking and enjoying the beautiful view of Rainy Lake. And we agree - the sunsets are pretty spectacular from the dock! Thanks again for the kind words and hopefully we can host you and your group again in the future! Craig and Karen
Craig was very informative, helpful and willing to go the extra mile to make our stay wonderful! The home was very spacious, modern, clean, and more than we could’ve asked for. Being right on Rainy was so convenient to tie up our boat at the dock. The views of Rainy from the deck were amazing no matter the time of day or the kind of weather we had.

Thank you so much for the kind words! Karen and I are so happy that you enjoyed our home and Rainy Lake as much as we do. And we couldn’t agree more - the views of Rainy Lake are amazing!
Recently remodeled home with views to a Canadian lighthouse was the perfect location for our family's exploration of Voyageur National Park. Craig was able to provide a lot of useful information about the area and even suggested a pontoon rental that was only a seven minute drive. Highly recommend this home which would be able to accommodate larger groups than our family of four. Thank you Craig, we really enjoyed our stay.
Wonderful large open home, brand new appliances, everything that you could hope for. Brand new boat dock access right there to the lake kept our boat there for the week. Walk out the back door to your boat go fishing come right back fillet your fish right there next to the dock. My whole family had a wonderful relaxing time.
This home has an amazing view with a perfect location on Rainy Lake. A short boat ride takes you to three restaurants. The home is spacious with plenty of room for the whole family. The living room gas fireplace warmed the cool rainy nights and back porch couches made a great spot to read. The kitchen was a cooks dream yet limited dishware. This is a lovely home for a family vacation in the northwoods.
This house was a great fit for our family. We loved fishing and swimming off the dock and watching the sunsets. Craig was very responsive to questions and helpful with suggestions. The house was clean and open. We visited Voyageurs NP (a short drive to the Rainy Lake Visitor Center), shopped in town, and had lunch in Canada. I would definitely recommend this house for a fun time on the lake.
We were looking for a place to enjoy Voyageurs National Park but also have our teens (15 &12) and my parents stay. This home delivered! It’s beautifully renovated and very spacious. We canceled the two dinner reservations we had in favor of using the grill and expansive kitchen - the appliances are top of the line. We enjoyed the deck and the dock- the views were amazing. We loved it and plan to go back! Thank you Craig for the personal welcome- so easy to communicate with and made the stay perfect!
