About the host

Hosted by FAMILY CABINS

Host profile image
As a PREVIOUS '5 STAR' VRBO PROPERTY OWNER, our active family has decided to rent the two family cabins as one unit for other families to enjoy this summer and fall.. Our family has enjoyed summers and fall weekends on the Gold Coast of Clearwater Lake for the past 40+ years. Life at the lake is a true North-woods experience that has created lifelong bonds between the family and their friends. Four years after purchasing the family property, my parents purchased the 2 Cabins next to us. Since their passing, I now own the Cabins. It is these cabins that we are now offering for summer and lakeshore rentals. They will be available a few weeks during the summer and weekends during the fall. We are seasoned rental property owners and know how create an inviting homey atmosphere for our guests. As the property owner, I live in Annandale and am available 24 hours a day. It is now time to share our love of the lake, the sunsets, the walks in the woods, the night-time bonfires, roasting marshmallows , listening to the loons, watching the eagles, napping in the hammock, reading books and just 'kicking back' with new families and their friends.

Why they chose this property

To answer the question 'Why rent this property', I could only say that renting property close to the Twin Cities only makes sense if you have an active family.
Annandale Minnesota is in close proximity to the Twin Cities and St. Cloud and is less than an hour from the Twin Cities. The property will only be rented as a 'whole' to preserve the family atmosphere. Having two Cabins on the same property has proven to be convenient. The second little Cabin can be used as an office, Grandparent getaway, older children’s space or just a quick escape from the action.

What makes this property unique

The greatest benefit of renting lakeside Cabins is the family bonding that occurs naturally between children of all ages, their parents, their grandparents, their great-great grandparents, their aunts & uncles, their cousins and their friends. The lake place provides a retreat for the whole family where each person can grow and thrive. A great benefit of driving North to the lake is the family time spent in the car singing songs and discussing the previous weeks activities. The lake is where our family has lived, laughed, cried and learned away from the hectic pace of the big city. Lake memories are treasured memories.!
