40th Birthday Weekend
This was a surprise stay to celebrate my wife’s 40th birthday. The view of the lake was breathtaking. The house was open, nicely maintained, and inviting. The private chef was wonderful. The hot tub was lovely. It was a delightful way to create a lasting experience that commemorates a milestone for someone so loved.

Great Family Getaway
Had a great family Labor Day getaway weekend! The house was a great setup for a variety of teens and young adults. The kitchen and dining room were great. The lake wasn't too busy. The lakeside firepit was awesome. The gang really enjoyed hanging out in the hot tub, especially at night. Would happily stay here again.

Bloomington long time friends
We had a wonderful time at this lakeside property. The exterior and interior of this home were beautiful and well maintained. We were a group of 9 people and there was plenty of room for all of us. The host was quick to respond when we had questions. It was a great location on the lake. We would definitely return!

Beautiful Property
Beautiful property inside and out; exactly as pictured and great/fast communication from the host. The large living room provided lots of space for the kids to play and the dining room had more than enough space for everyone to gather around (6 adults + 3 kids). We loved the outdoor space as well for playing yard games and bonfires. Also the hot tub was a great bonus - the sunset views were amazing! Book it!

Family Fav!
This property was such a good fit for our family. Large front & back yards made perfect croquet, frisbee and tag areas; living areas on the main floor were roomy, well-appointed and the wall of picture windows provided spectacular front row viewing to the hot tub, deck, lake and evening sunsets; the bunk room’s closet was large enough for a third (floor) bed, which allowed 3 of our 5 older grands to sleep together; all of the bed mattresses were super comfy and the high quality linens, pillows and comforters much appreciated; main floor full bath was roomy & convenient, a perfect place for the kids to bathe after a day in the sun and on the lake; the speed boat proved to be a real winner, worth the additional fee. It comfortable fit all 11 of us and the stern’s easy step off/on platform superior to typical boat ladders; the small kitchen was well-appointed, ample storage, efficiently designed and located well in sight of dining area. Finally, communication with the host was timely, thoughtful and helpful! We’ll return next summer, for sure!

Wonderful family home!
We stayed here with our kids and grandkids the weekend of our daughter's wedding. It's just what we needed & more! The large dining/living area and deck with hot tub were perfect for entertaining guests! The bedrooms are upstairs so the kids could go to bed while still having guests on the main level. Older home with so much charm that has been very nicely updated with all the modern amenities. Decorated very nicely! Feels like you are at a cabin way up north but are actually just minutes away from anything you need! Rebecca is very sweet & quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Our only regret is not staying long enough to enjoy the amazing boat & lake! Would love to come back soon!

Incredible Lake House
Our stay was one of the most relaxing and amazing vacations my family has taken. Our kids loved swimming in the lake, fishing, making smores at the fire pit, and warming up in the hot tub. My parents enjoyed the spacious living/great room with beautiful lake views. My wife and I got to relax because everyone had something of their liking (haha).
Rebecca was attentive and helpful in the check-in process and my questions along the way.

Great location and spacious dining/living room
Was hoping for a snowy winter getaway with the fam, and unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate. However, the house was still on a gorgeous lake, with a short walk into town (on a raised walking path nonetheless), and we had plenty of space to game and drink hot cocoa between hottub trips. Would certainly stay again!

Family Gathering
We enjoyed a weekend family gathering at this wonderful lake house. It is a beautiful home, nicely decorated, cozy and clean. Perfect for a group. It has a very nice lake view and is close to shopping and restaurants. The host was wonderful and very accommodating. We had some trouble with the hot tub and the host got someone out to get it running within an hour of me contacting her. Communication was great. I would definitely stay here again!

Great spot close to the cities
We had lovely girls weekend. The house was cozy and had plenty of room for our group. We were close enough to the cities to go explore wineries in Stillwater and out far enough that it felt like a retreat. Hot tub was perfect for the cool fall nights! Thank you!

The perfect getaway!
We were pleasantly surprised to find this home available at such short notice - and even more excited when we got to the property. The decor and amenities were so thoughtfully curated for a very comfortable stay and just a short drive outside of the city. It felt like we went up north!
The owners we’re flexible and accommodating and I would highly recommend this property to anyone who is looking for R&R alone, as a family or with friends. The house can accommodate a good amount of people and kids!

Great Family Vacation Spot!
Our group of 8 adults and 2 kids (4 and 16 months) had a wonderful time at this great home! We rented the pontoon boat for two of the days and that was a definite highlight of our trip. We also really enjoyed the fire pit after dinner each night. We cooked all of our meals at the house and pretty much only left to get groceries. The views and especially sunsets are stunning! I would highly recommend this home!

Lake house
Big house with plenty of sleeping spots. Everything worked as it should. The kids got to use the hot tub and all the conveniences you could want like 5 minutes away. Looked like it would be a nice place to check out in the summer when it's warm out.

Perfect winter getaway close to the Twin Cities
This was the perfect space for a quick girls weekend. The main floor living and dining room were beautiful and open and the photos didn’t do it justice. A perfect gathering space for our group.

Awesome Winter Stay
This house was great! Very clean and comfortable with well stocked kitchen with all the basics. We especially enjoyed the real fireplace in the main living room which worked great with no sketchy flue problems. There is a nearby gas station to purchase wood. We also loved getting outside and in the hot tub where there are great views out over the lake. Remember your own pool towels. The bath towels are plentiful and nice! The four bedrooms upstairs share a full bath but since there were only 5 of us it wasn't a problem. For larger groups there is also a shower in the basement. We got takeout bagels one morning from Big City Bagels and takeout Mexican from Don Julio. The food was pretty good at both places and we were able to order online and then pickup from very friendly people. We would not hesitate to come back and I'm sure it's even better in the summer.

Family Christmas celebration
We love this home so dearly that we have stayed there three years in a row, as our family of 9, during a December weekend. We have time to relax together as a family and celebrate Christmas. The house is beautiful, the kitchen large and so fun to cook great meals. I especially love the large storage areas to store all our groceries. The hot tub and air hockey get used a lot, the lake is well frozen for ice fishing, and the large main floor fireplace is cozy. The dining area has a huge beautiful table. I love that the kitchen has lots of storage areas for all our groceries. . The main living space has great views, comfy furniture, and is spacious for a large group. The bedrooms are comfortable. The owners are exceptional and kind people who are so welcoming and accommodating. We are grateful to have great memories made at this home. Thank you!

Lovely lake getaway
Rebecca and her family are so gracious to rent out their beautiful property tucked away in a quiet neighborhood right on the lake. My friends and I had a fantastic weekend relaxing at the fire pit, swimming off the dock, and cozying up in the house. The property was clean, easy to access, and had a lot of useful amenities. I especially loved the sound system that can play in multiple rooms. Rebecca was responsive and easy to work with. She was such a kind host and she left us some snacks to welcome us to the home. This is not a property for loud groups or excessive drinking as the neighbors are close by and will be disturbed by excess noise. If you want a nice relaxing getaway then this property is perfect for you. We really did not have any complaints and had such a nice time. Thank you Rebecca for everything!
