BEST OF THE BEST

Where do I begin? I found this property and based on the information provided, I knew it would be a great fit for our group. When we arrived and walked in the door, I knew our week stay was going to be outstanding. The property was super clean and had enough supplies for our stay. We knew we had to bring additional paper goods and that the property didn’t have a dishwasher but we were prepared for that. The air conditioner and wi-fi worked great. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. There was a generous supply of towels and blankets. The kitchen was very well stocked. The lake shore is a bit rocky with weeds but we took the boat out and enjoyed the lake tubing and swimming. The location is 6 minutes from the Mystic Lake Casino and The Largest Candy Store in Minnesota which is a must see! Connie, the owner, was very prompt at answering my texts and super easy to work with. I would highly recommend this property. .

Wedding Weekend

Our son's wedding was at Stonebrooke Golf Club in Shakapee. The home was a perfect place for our immediate family to stay for the wedding weekend. We enjoyed the beautiful view of the lake from the home. The home was well equipped with cooking utensils and other kitchen items needed for cooking and grilling. The bedrooms and gathering spaces were spacious. Our family also enjoyed utilizing the kayaks. The owner, Connie, was extremely friendly and responsive by both text and phone. I highly recommend this property. Only one suggestion for future guests - be sure to bring your own paper towels and showering/bathing supplies (shampoo, etc). Enjoy this beautiful home.

Beautiful lake view from the living room and upstairs loft. Host responded to our question promptly. Home is as listed. Our family loved fishing from the dock & did catch some fish. Granddaughters also enjoyed the nearby park. The home has lots of seating on the deck for visiting or eating outside. Good location with lots of nearby activities and restaurants. Our family made lots of memories.

Charming lake home with lots of space

This home feels like a cabin up north and with the lake right out back makes for a perfect spot to spend time with family. The house is well equipped and the furniture comfortable. We had bonfires, swam in the lake and enjoyed some nice sunsets. The owner was quick to respond when we reached out to her. We will hope to stay here again.

Perfect Spot for Our Family Get-together!

This house is spacious and well suited for families! There were comfortable sleeping areas for our wide range of ages. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. We all slept well in the comfortable beds. The park across the street and the 4 kayaks were a bonus!

Graduation celebration

The manager was extremely responsive and answered any questions quickly. The lake cabin was as advertised and really was a nice place. As stated in other reviews, limited paper products-paper towels, napkins, soap and shampoo but- I asked prior and was told what was provided. Kitchen is decently equipped and we did cook full meals there. The kayaks were great and were used by several. I would recommend for a nice break. Our extended family enjoyed.

Spring Lake House

The house was beautiful located on Spring Lake. The only downer was the fishing. If you're looking to fish, try other lakes in the area. Otherwise, the house was great. Only a 40 minute drive from Minneapolis with good restaurants in the area.

Peaceful lake setting

Great quiet lake setting, perfect for a family. Lots of room, and super soft sheets. Great selection of video games. Suggestions to homeowners: rooms are very dark. Brighter lights, at least in the bathrooms. Knives were very dull. Full length mirror and makeup mirror would be awesome. Thank you!

Great location for Family Gathering

Great location for Family Gathering, and we really enjoyed the lake access and kayaks. The location is only 30 minutes from the airport. However, we could only access the property after 4 pm and were surprised to find out the the following were not included, which required a run to a local store for supplies: • Paper towels • Napkins • Laundry detergent • Shampoo and body wash in bathrooms • Cutting boards (has cutting sheets) • Salt and pepper • Olive oil • Coffee • Facial tissues Also, there was not dishwasher and guests are expected to wash all dishes and put them away before departing by 10 am. We had a VRBO for 5 years in Anacortes Washington and stay in vacation rentals all over the world. The supplies listed above are expected. think that future guests need a list of what they need to supply themselves.

Family get-together

Wonderful lake home, right on the water, 4 bedrooms. Lovely owner, very easy communication. I always wish rentals would just leave the condiments behind, as purchasing every single thing for a brief rental seems wasteful but already knew that was the set-up. Plenty of every pot/pan/appliance (except no Dishwasher, as clearly noted in the ad) in the kitchen (but bring all plastic wrap/tin-foil etc). Bathrooms are great, hand soap only provided. Great collection of towels/beach towels and bedding. Used a nearby swim beach that was sandy for swimming, and used the kayaks at the rental. Enjoyed a ribs-fest at Mystic Casino (great outdoor food and music) and seeing Wicked at the Orpheum. Highly recommend this rental.

BEST Family Vacation!

We absolutely had the BEST time! The house is beautiful inside and out. Honestly, it is even more beautiful and spacious in person than what you see in the photos. The kitchens are stocked with any dishes, containers, cookware that you could possibly need and there were tons of towels and blankets. We canoed, kayaked and swam almost every day and enjoyed a fire by the lake every night. We had one rainy day but no problem as there were books and games to play, good wifi and of course the Play Station was a big hit as well. During our stay, we had a question and Connie the owner literally responded within minutes. Our family created some very special memories here and are already talking about coming back again! Thank you Connie!

Relaxing lake house

This was a perfect space for our reunion of friends- 6 adults and 5 kids ranging in age from 5-13. Adults each got their own room and kids had a big sleepover in the spacious master bedroom. It was awesome having direct private access to the lake for swimming and kayaking. Everything was comfortable (except the fold out couch) and clean, and Connie was very responsive and accommodating. There is a small playground/park directly across the street which is also nice for little kids.
