Kayaks, Paddle Boat, Game room, Firepit & Much More- On Swimming Bay!

Experience an east coast flavor up north in the Cove on Mille Lacs Lake. This newly remodeled lake home is above average in its quality and furnishings! The home sits on one of the best swimming and fishing bays on the west side of the lake and features a downstairs family room, fish cleaning station, and a private dock!

The owners have a ton of amenities including an Aqua Cycle Two Paddle Boat - which is a 4 person paddle boat for fishing and exploring in the bay!

Enjoy the water in one of the two kayaks, paddle board, paddle boat, or giant Aqua Lily Pad. There are plenty of board games, a ping pong table, and dart board for indoor entertainment. Little ones can take a dip in the kiddie pool, play with the water table, or run through the inflatable splash pads. Fire up the grill and enjoy dining on the lakeside deck. Gather around the fire pit and watch the sunset as your group makes memories and explores the amazing area.


The home has three bedrooms and a common space that accommodates two twin beds. Bedroom one has a king bed and a twin trundle bed with two twin spots. Bedroom 2 has a queen bed. Bedroom three has two twin beds. The lower space has a twin trundle with two beds. The owners have installed an egress window on the lower level and we will update pics asap.

Great getaway on the lake

Everything was just as described. And more than enough to keep you entertained, games, ping pong, darts. Kitchen was amazing and well equipped, (so much so we came home an ordered the same toaster, so cool). Beds were very comfortable. It was very relaxing just enjoying the lake and wildlife from the deck. Mike was very responsive for our inquiries. Lake toys were used by everyone in the family. Nice restaurant and grocery store in the town of Garrison also.

Family trip to Garrison

We brought our family here for a short summer vacation. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the weather. We had a day of rain. The house was beautiful. Our grandchildren loved using the padellboard, paddle boat, and kiok. They now want to come back for a winter trip for ice fishing. Thanks for helping us to create some great family memories.

Amazing property!

What a fabulous property! So well equipped with lots of lovely touches. We enjoy cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed and great bbq. The deck and outside equipment was great. Unfortunately weather wasn’t as good as we would have liked so didn’t get out on the lake much but enjoyed just sitting about in and around the house. We would definitely come back if we are planning on staying at Mille Lacs again.

Muskie fishing getaway

We had a lovely stay on Mille Lacs and fully utilized all this property's amenities. The boys were out fishing every day on the paddle boat and we enjoyed sunset kayak trips around the cove. The deck was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. The kitchen was extremely well stocked for us to fry fish, cook big breakfasts, and whip up sandwiches for on the go. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic Vacation

Starting from the booking to the checkout this was the place for a nice get away! The manager was responsive for all inquiries. The home was well maintained and had everything for amenities especially for one rainy day. The casino was just 4 minutes away with a nice golf course just 4 minutes away in the other direction. This may just become an annual stay for us with how relaxing and modern the home was. Thanks for the great time!

Great stay at the Cove

This was a well maintained new property that was perfect for our family. The kitchen had everything we needed and everything was fairly new. Beds were comfortable. Firepit was great in the evenings. So many lake toys, a lily pad to float on, kayaks and stand up paddle board were very fun too. The basement has a game room with darts, ping pong and axe throwing which kept us busy. A bit remote from most towns nearby and right next to a motel. You do hear the noises from nearby road. It was an excellent relaxing stay and we would return.

Above and Beyond Our Expectations

This property has more to offer than you even see in the listing. There is everything here that you need and more. In the kitchen: Gourmet Coffee, flavored creamers, tea, cups for any and every drink, seasonings, paper towels, tin foil and other items to cook and wrap food, quality cooking utensils and cookware. We felt right at home cooking in the gorgeous, well stocked kitchen. There are big beach towels for everyone, a hammock with clips on back two trees in front of the lake, porch with chairs and loungers was immaculate and comfortable for the entire family at once with options to be in or out of the sun. If you want to be a little more active, use the 2 person paddle boat, paddle board or kayaks, or get a water lounger or blow up for the lake to go out there and chill. Do not worry if you forgot your life vest, there is every size possible hanging up in the garage next to a durable plastic axe throwing game and corn hole game boards. If you have little ones, there is a plastic baby pool with lots of younger kid toys…even chalk. By the garage door there is an umbrella (in case it rains), a sound machine in the master bedroom to help you sleep, laundry detergent to wash your clothes, shampoo and conditioner in both bathrooms, extra pillows, blankets and comforters, lots of family board games to play together. Whoever put this property together has thought of every little detail to make your vacation great for every age person. Above and Beyond
