Lovely Lakeside home
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely lakeside home. Everything was well stocked in the kitchen and down to shampoo, conditioner and soap in the shower. Lots of board games available for use! The view was beautiful. The beds were clean, cozy and very comfortable! Lots of room and loved the open concept. Would definitely stay again.

We were happy with our stay
The property was beautiful and spacious and we loved being right on the lake. The condo was clean and there were plenty of sleeping options, as long as you didn't mind sharing a bed. The garage was small and was partially used for storage, but I managed to fit my car in anyway. We were able to fit the rest of our cars in the driveway, otherwise the extra lot is a little ways away. The fireplace was a nice touch, and the tv remote required a little patience to use, as it would lag sometimes or take multiple tries to work. The regular wifi would drop out, but the 5g wifi worked great. The location was nice as it was in between Onamia and Isle and the 2 state parks in the area. The kitchen we found met our cooking needs. The electric griddle was perfect for making breakfast in the morning and there were multiple baking sheets for us to bake pizza on. We enjoyed our weekend here on Lake Mille Lacs. Thanks for having us!

Beautiful Place!
We rented the property for our family vacation - traveling with 7 adults and 4 children – We had a wonderful time! It was a beautiful place with lovely décor and great views of Mille Lacs Lake. The property was very clean and well stocked with everything we could possibly need, from toiletries to utensils and extra towels/blankets. The home was very spacious with enough beds to accommodate us all perfectly. It was just a short walk to the pool and golf course. We had excellent communication from host – very clear and easy check in/out instructions. Would definitely stay again!

A great stay
Every morning waking up to Mille Lacs was super magical! The neighbors were all very nice and the property was well maintained keeping the bug population lower than I was expecting.
We basically had free reign of the swimming beach about 100 yards from our back door and golf, swimming pools, and canoe rentals were all just around the corner.

We enjoyed our stay here greatly! The house is beautifully decorated. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans and things you do not expect such as serving platters. We stayed here for our daughter’s wedding. We appreciated the host, Ellie, willingness to help us with some extra needs to make our stay comfortable I would highly recommend this host and house.

It’s the little things
Overall it was a spacious unit with great views of Mille Lacs lake and a wonderful patio with a fire pit. But could use some upkeep or a handyman. Door access changed due to lockbox problems, note on washer to avoid certain settings, patio screen likes to derail, master BR TV took 6 tries to turn on & then channel changer didn’t work, WiFi router in closet had different network/password on a post-it that didn’t sync to AC (was cool enough so not a problem). All little things but gives an impression. We all had a good time with plenty of space for activities and fabulous views!

Family Vacation
This Townhome was excellent for our large family. It was clean and had a beautiful lake view. The resort pool was perfect for the kids and adults. We did have a few bumps, but the host Ellie took care of them right away. We had 13 of us stay for a week and we did bring 2 air beds for more comfort. Overall it was a perfect stay.

Wonderful host but the cleanliness could be improved
Ellie was a fantastic host. Very responsive and helpful. The location is ideal and the view is gorgeous. We had a blast on our boat and the proximity to the boat launch is super convenient!
The only downside was the cleanliness. The floors were swept/vacuumed but not mopped so our feet were black. There were dead bugs around windows and doors, an ant problem by sliding door, and a used bandaid in the sheets.
I did reach out to Ellie privately and she will be addressing this with the cleaning staff. I know the issue will be resolved quickly.
Overall I would definitely recommend. We had a blast on our family trip!

This house is much bigger than the pictures depict. It's updated, it's got all the amenities you will need. It's private, so quiet, with your own waterfront to yourself. It was great to have big dinners with family and just to hang out! I would rent this property again and again.

Beautiful location, needed cleaning.
Although we gave a lower rating for cleanliness, we were able to run all of the dishes we expected to use through a dishwasher cycle before using and kept these in a known 'clean' location. Thank goodness for dishwashers. Windows (someone with dirty hands tried finger painting with some) and all of the counters, benches and chairs needed wiping before we could use them as well. I'm not sure what the cleaning fee is used for. This property is very nice (sans the aforementioned issues), with a beautiful layout and gorgeous location, maybe the best at Izatys.
We also had a bit of a hitch with our check-in due to Ellie's email being consumed by my spam filter. I left multiple messages for her at check-in time. In the end, all worked out well. There were no further communication issues.
We arrived on a day the lake was rocking and rolling making that evening and the next day spectacular allowing us to see what Mille Lacs Lake is really made of. After a lifetime of driving by the lake it was fun to just sit and watch.
