The lawn needed mowing which was an appearance issue. I think someone is using the wrong cleaning method on the tile in the shower. We scrubbed it with a stiff brush and clorox cleaner to get rid of a buildup. It was the only issue the rest of the house was spotless. We cleaned the shower because it was a little slippery when wet.

Thank you for staying with us. We were glad to hear that your group had a great time and enjoyed your time at the home. We also truly appreciate the feedback. If you stay with us again, please know that you have my personal cell number, and I’m only minutes away. I appreciate the opportunity to address any concerns in real time and make things right whenever possible. We have followed up with the lawn service, as we have not previously experienced issues, and we apologize if the grass was longer than you wanted. We also shared your comments with our housekeeper, who has done an excellent job caring for this home over the past five years. While we have not received this feedback before, we appreciate you bringing it to our attention and giving us the opportunity to follow up.

Twin Shores Excellence!

This is one of the best properties we have stayed at. Great location, clean roomy and the sunrises are spectacular! Beautiful view of the lake and a private boat landing in the back channel made launching a breeze. We will be coming back to this property.

Great family gathering space

Our family loved the multiple gathering spaces indoors and outdoors. Beautiful setting and lake view with large spaces for cooking, eating, playing games, sitting around the fire pit, fishing and kayaking. Updated decor, very clean and well-cared for property. We hope to return!

Beautiful views and quiet location.

The view was stunning and I don't think can be beat. Fishing is great but you need a deep V boat and be mindful of the wind. It is a great place and Mike did a great job.

Awesome Getaway Close to Twin Cities

We could not have asked for more to get away for a long weekend of ice fishing and enjoying the outdoors. The property is perfectly placed for fish access and to restaurants etc. It was fully stocked with all we needed and a beautiful property. We are already planning our next visit!

Awesome Experience

This rental was perfect for our family vacation. Ultra comfortable, up to date, very accommodating for 2 families, and the amenities were beyond my expectations. I have been renting cabins/homes for family vacations for a number of years and this one is on the top of the list.

Great place on the lake

We spent time with extended family here. It was great—plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We rented a boat for the week, so having the dock there was nice. The only thing I would warn people of is the water is shallow from the dock north to the inlet and out about 100 yards, so trim up the motor and go slow.

Perfect spot for a family

Extremely clean and well supplied for a large gathering. We loved the space, the lawn, the firepit area, games, back porch, boat launch and dock. The kitchen and living areas were very comfortable. The upstairs room was great for our daughter's family with small children. They could have some quiet time away from the rest of the group. It was the perfect place to gather with family.

Wonderful vacation!

We had a lovely time at this spot! Mike was easy to communicate with and always got back to us right away. The place is beautiful! Very clean, lovely spot and a wonderful place to stay. Loved the ping pong and air hockey, the chairs out by the lake and the fire pit was wonderful. Great place for spending time together and making s’mores.We would definitely go back! Highly recommend.

Easter Get-a-Way

This is our 2nd family Easter at this property, and everyone has asked to come back again next year. The property is large, and has ample space both inside, and out. We take full advantage of the garage space too, as the weather is usually chilly when we go. The space is very clean, and open, and the property manager is always available.

Family Getaway

Our family had a great stay at Lake Mille Lacs at this dream house! It was perfect for the 4 couples we had at the cabin, with ample shared and personal space. We loved using the fire pit at night, the grill for dinners, and the water toys (kayaks and a pedal boat) provided a fun water experience. The large kitchen made meal time a breeze, and accessible laundry was a great perk. This was our family’s favorite rental so far across several years of family trips!
