    Lakefront home on Beautiful Lake Francis, only 1 hour from the Twin Cities

    This newly remodeled home, just steps from the beach, is the perfect getaway.

    Spend your summer days fishing off the dock, boating on and swimming in, 1050 acre crystal clear Lake Francis. Enjoy sitting, grilling, and eating on the lovely, new covered deck. Our favorite summer evening activity is to warm up in the sauna and then run down to the clean, hard sandy bottom lake to cool off. Included in your stay are 2 paddle boards, 2 kayaks, a Lily Pad along with numerous life jackets and small beach toys. There is also a swing set/play set in the front yard.

    Spring and fall bring so much natural beauty to this lake and entire area. Wake up to beautiful sunrises across Lake Francis. Stanley Eddy Park is just 3 miles down the road and has almost 4 miles of beautiful hiking trails.

    During the winter months, Powder Ridge ski resort in Kimball, MN is just a quick 14 miles away. Ski all day and come back to the cozy home and warm up in the sauna. Stanley Eddy Park(3 miles away) also has cross country ski trails.

    The master bedroom has a king size bed, the second bedroom has a queen size bed, and the third bedroom has twin bunk beds. There is a futon couch in the living room that folds into a twin bed, and there is an inflatable twin size mattress available. There is a shower in 1 bathroom, a full bathtub/shower in the second bathroom, and a shower in the sauna.

    Thank you for considering our lake home for your next getaway!

    We enjoyed our stay. However it was not clear that there was a no pet policy until I received the confirmation. Otherwise the cabin was clean and comfortable. The lakefront was really great! The sauna was a great added bonus.

    Great location and lake place for a family weekend. Lake is beautiful and the sandy lake helped to beat the 95 degree heat. Definitely recommend and going back.

    Momcation
    Five moms getting away for a long weekend! The house was the perfect size! The dock and all the accessories were good. This would also be a great place for families! They have a little sand area and toys and floaties for kids. Something that would have been nice to have or to know was more chairs. It would also be fun to have atring lights on the patio for when it gets dark. There is a light but it attracted so many bugs! We loved the sauna! Holly was a great host and answered any questions we had!
