BEST HOST and HOSTESS !!
Beautiful home, very clean, incredible and secure internet (I easily dialed into my work server located in Minneapolis), easy check in are only a few words to describe this VRBO. I have stayed in other VRBO's with family for vacations, but this was not a vacation for me. I checked in on the 5th of May after I changed my reservation 3 or 4 times and Chris and Kensie were very accommodating. My knee replacement surgery was on the 10th, and I had family members coming and going to check/care for me. Chris was very upfront and said I would have 3 steps to go up and down to get in their house, but that there is a railing. I had no problem getting in and out. On the third or fourth day after surgery, I received a beautiful floral arrangement wishing me a speedy recovery from Chris and Kensie. I was so surprised and that made my day. This was not an easy surgery for me; but the house main floor was wide open, and I could get around very easily with my walker. If you are looking for a place to stay for surgery or vacation; this IS the place. Even though I couldn't enjoy the lake this stay, my family did when it wasn't raining. It's only a few blocks away (easy walking distance). Thank you, Chris and Kensie; I will definitely be back. Andrea

Great Weekend Getaway
My friend and I stayed at this property over the weekend and surprisingly were able to stay within a 2-block radius the entire time. In one direction you have the lake, beach, and bars/restaurants. In the other direction, you have shops, a cafe, co-op, bookstore, brewery, and restaurants. The house was clean, comfortable, and in a great location. For two women, we felt safe the entire time and had a wonderful stay.
