There were 8 of us, all 76 yrs old, women. We loved the accommodations, we were all very comfortable in the home. If there was a negative it would be the pillows. They weren’t very comfortable. Otherwise, the kitchen was well stocked as were the bathrooms. All in all, we had a terrific time.

Our family had such a great Labor Day weekend at your location. We do a different site celebration each year, and this was one of the best ever. We will definitely be coming back here in the future. The neighbors/owners were so great to us!! The home was equipped with so many things not always included in other places…lots of cooking equipment, games and lake toys! Thank you so much for letting our family make memories in Maple Lake. We appreciate it immensely!Marcy Dold Richmond MN

The property checked so many of our boxes for our stay with our two sons and their families. The proximity to the Cities was great with less than an hour drive for both of them. We loved the layout of the house with the open floor plan and the deck right out from the kitchen. The large tables and plenty of chairs for all of us to eat meals at and then the table downstairs. Our grandkids had fun with their own bunk room. The yard was great for us to play games in and the sandy beach was the best for the kids to play in. Nice to have the picnic table and chairs by the beach for the adults and a nice fire pit area. The parking worked well and was nice to have the garage. Loved all the windows for such a great view of the lake! Owner and owners family were so kind and helpful. Would highly recommend this place. Thanks!Roger and Sandy U.August 2026

Better then we imagined

Our stay was just wonderful! Opening the front door you saw the beautiful lake views, and a nice welcome basket on the counter. The area was so open, we could all be together and the dining room table sat 12 of us. Comfortable beds and big sofas to relax on! Bathrooms were redone very nicely and well supplied. The owners were amazing!

This property had everything we needed! We stayed a few days with the family and enjoyed every minute. Fishing was good for the littles..they were able to catch a few fish so that keep them happy. If there would be one thing it would be nice to have an additional fridge in the basement. But that wasnt a huge deal. The hosts couldnt have been more helpful and friendly. It is for sure on the top of our list of properties.
