This is our second visit with this property, the Lake Waconia Retreat. When we what in, we immediately felt like we were home again as the hosts are very friendly and accommodating. Found that there were a number of thoughtful updates which made the Retreat even cozier experience. It is, overall, extremely well equipped...from the kitchen, baths and laundry. We had an eyeglass emergency and were able to find a little eyeglass repair kit that did the trick. We we will return. Thank you Gail and Andy

We loved this house! Impeccably clean, generously stocked, clearly marked household 'hints' that make staying in someone's well loved space so much easier to navigate, higher end amenities, natural light galore and I have to mention there were at least 4 ice cube size options :). This house fit our needs so well and we are now looking for another reason to come back to Waconia.
