Matt was an excellent host, very communicative! The home was very cozy, clean, taken care of and had everything we needed. Lake access was easy, even caught a couple bass on the kayak! This house is perfectly set up for a quiet time away with the family. Exceeded our expectations and definitely recommend.

Everything was wonderful, beyond expectations. Our group was pleased with the property and we’d highly recommend it to anyone. Lovely view of the lake too! We had a slight issue with no internet when we arrived due to a recent storm, but Matt stayed on top of it and it was working shortly after we arrived!

Great Lake house, and wonderful, communicative host! The house is close to everything and perfectly equipped and ready to accommodate a small or large group! The beds were extremely comfortable, we all slept like we have not slept in years. We cooked, grilled and enjoyed the outside spaces. Very quiet and peaceful throughout the day and night. So many amenities that makes your trip easier and enjoyable. The lake is just a few steps away and you get to enjoy beautiful sunsets and relax. The host leaves you with a handbook full of useful information and great dining spots. We would love to come back and enjoy it for a longer time soon.

We had the most incredible stay at this property! The house itself was convenient, and incredibly comfortable, but what really set it apart was how thoughtfully stocked and accommodating everything was. The hosts truly went above and beyond, we had absolutely everything we needed and then some.For the price, the value you get with all of the added amenities is unmatched. It is the absolute perfect summertime place to relax and unwind. We had a fantastic experience from start to finish and will definitely be back! Highly recommend!

Perfect place for a small family group. All the little amenities and snacks they laid out were fantastic. Laying on the pontoon and getting some sun and fish was a blast.

Great place to stay!

We loved staying at this property. Cabin had everything we needed and owner was very responsive. Beds were very comfortable and master bedroom very spacious. We rented the pontoon boat as well and it was perfect for our group to go on evening rides. We were in town to play soccer at the national sports complex and this was only a 20 minute drive and was much better than staying downtown Minneapolis which is where some of the team stayed. If we ever play up there again will def book this cabin!

Great location, cute lake house

This property is lovely, real care has gone into choosing and providing decor and amenities for guests. My family enjoyed a 5 night stay and had everything we needed. We experienced an intense heat wave and an HVAC issue and the owners were quick to respond. The town is cute and close enough to the city for a wide range of activities.

Nice Cottage

Enjoyed our stay. Accommodations were nice. Bed very comfy, bathrooms not great, but very clean. Had some issues with communications at the onset but they got better with our stay. Location is very nice for families or people wanting a lake experience. We wanted to go downtown and that was a jaunt.

We had the best vacation at this charming lake house! There is everything you need to enjoy your stay. From kayaks, paddle boards, yard games, board games, bikes etc. you will have plenty to do! Our family will absolutely be back! Our son played in the Target Cup if you are traveling for sports it’s a very quick and easy drive to the National Sports Center fields.

House and yard are filled with all needed items to get away and relax. Kithen, bathrooms, bedding are all like home. Outside and at the dock they have items to make for a great lake day. Communication was instant when we had questions, really enjoyed our stay.

We’ve stayed at a few lake houses in a few different states, and this was hands down the BEST! Our hosts took care of everything. Matt went out of his way in his day off to teach us how to use the pontoon! The central air was perfect for hot summer days and nights! The kitchen was fully stocked with essentials for cooking in house. The porch and living room views of the lake were beautiful! They even provided snacks! So thoughtful and lovely!

Exactly what we needed!

The Lakeside Getaway was in a great location for a friends trip we planned. We chose it for the size of beds, and number of bathrooms, (3 adult couples' trip) in addition to its location close to our trip event plans. It is in a peaceful quiet neighborhood, and we regretted we could not take advantage of all it had to offer in terms of being near the water. We did not choose it for the water toys it had to offer, but it would have been great! Kathy responded in a very timely manner to our questions, and check-in and out were very simple. We would stay again.

3 stars max, place was dirty ceiling tile in main bath was falling down, toilet rings present. We brought our pontoon boat which we could not leave at dock. Water too shalllow and no good place to secure it properly. The green outdoor carpet in the kitchen was totally disgusting. I would not recommend staying here.

Hi Daryl, Thanks for your feedback. We were surprised by some of your comments-we don’t have ceiling tiles in any of our bathrooms and cleanliness is something we take great pride in. There was no communication from you so we assumed all was well. We also weren’t informed that you would be bringing a pontoon boat. Water levels can vary, and with advance notice we’re happy to advise on docking options to help avoid issues. We appreciate you staying with us and will continue working to improve the guest experience.

Great Lake

Overall we enjoyed our stay there. The size was perfect for our family and having the game room was an added bonus especially when our grandchild was there. The lake was amazing and we were so happy that our son was able to bring his boat up for a couple of days and dock it at their dock. Our only real issue was the air conditioning we happen to be there at a time when temperatures were quite hot and unfortunately the AC could not perform well for the house outside. My suggestion would be at least ceiling fans or room fans in each room to help with that. But we hope to one day to come back and visit because it is a beautiful area.

You all were perfect guests!! Unfortunately, we did not know of the AC issues until the guests after you brought it to our attention. We have since remedied the situation and the house is much more comfortable!! We would love to have you back again!!

We knew the cabin was across the street from the lake, but we were disappointed to realize there was nowhere to sit by the water other than on the dock or the pontoon boat.The kitchen counters had crumbs all over, the drawers are very messy with the cutlery tray in need of cleaning and the refrigerator had not been cleaned. The kitchen cupboards really need to be cleaned, and the cookware needs to be updated with a few everyday items instead of crammed with so much junk. There was plenty of paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, spices.There were plenty of towels and beach towels. The beds were tolerable however the pillows need updating. My king-sized pillow was covered with a standard pillowcase and so part of the pillow was sticking out. The shower in the master bedroom on the second floor has very little water pressure, so we had to go in the basement to take our showers.We enjoyed having a fire in the back of the house at night. We were able to go for walks in the morning. The neighborhood is quiet. Everyone had fun playing foosball at night.
