About this property
Sanctuary at Hay Lake, MN
Sanctuary at Hay Lake is situated on just over a half acre of nature's bliss. The house has been meticulously re-designed and remodeled with the vacationing family or larger group in mind. It features 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and very comfortably accommodates 12 people. All of the beds feature memory foam mattresses with an additional memory foam topper so each guest can choose between a softer, or firmer mattress experience. On the upper level three of the bedrooms offer guests the flexibility to choose bed configurations of either two twin extra long (XL), or combined for a single king size bed. In the fourth upper level bedroom we offer two sets of bunk beds to sleep four people. For the comfort of our taller guests all of the twin beds are XL - even the two sets of bunk beds. On the main level we offer two bedrooms, each with queen size beds. For added flexibility and additional gathering space, one of the bedrooms features a memory foam queen size sleeper sofa. The sleeper sofa was specially selected for its sleeping comfort, and features a 6" memory foam mattress and an additional 2" memory foam topper for a combined total of 8" of memory foam sleeping bliss. All four bathrooms include complete towel sets, and body wash/shampoo/conditioner dispensers in the shower. The master bathroom also features a whirlpool bathtub with lake view.
House amenities include a fully stocked kitchen for all your cooking needs, and dining for 14 people. All bedrooms, except the bunk room, offer Smart TV's with cable TV. The house is fully air conditioned, and Wi-Fi internet is available throughout the house. For guests who have difficulty with stairs the house is equipped with a motorized chair for easy lake access, and the house features two bedrooms on the main floor. Also included with your stay is use of the 24 foot pontoon boat, and seating for 14 people Including captain. And of course, there are plenty of other water toys including tubes, floating dock, floating dock, a single person kayak, double person kayak, and a lake badminton court!
Hay Lake offers 363 acres of fully recreational waters with truly amazing water clarity - you can see the lake bottom from the house! The lake is stocked by both the DNR and the Hand-Hay Lake Association, and features black crappie, bluegill, largemouth bass, northern pike, rock bass, walleye, and many other fish species. Approximately half of the lake shore is completely natural and undeveloped - this is truly Sanctuary at Hay Lake! The lake has no known invasive species -- we thank you for doing your part to keep it that way.
