We had a wonderful week! The weather was beautiful and the lake calm and refreshing. Check in was easy, as was communication with Lynne. The cabin was very clean and the kitchen was great with nice appliances to use. Lots of catch and release fun off the dock. We hope to return again.
This was our second stay with Lynne at the lake house and we couldn't be happier! The place is well stocked with everything you need, very clean, and perfect for a family getaway. We spent our time at the lake swimming, paddle boating, and relaxing in the sun. Both indoor and outdoor spaces are perfect for our large family and communication with Lynne is a breeze. We're looking forward to coming back next year!
Check in was great and all the communication prior with Lynne was wonderful. The house and location were exactly what we wanted. Secluded but close to town. We had a group of kids and adults and it was perfect for our needs. Thanks for letting us rent your beautiful property!
We had a fabulous time relaxing, canoeing, adventuring. Such a nice kitchen, and the porch is amazing for when the bugs might be too bad for the patio. Our time couldn’t have been better.
The house, including the kitchen is well furnished with everything you need. Excellent A/C, appliances, and water. Great enclosed and outside patios. The enclosed patio windows and door have full screens.The house property is beautiful, private, and well cared for. Excellent L-shaped dock with bench. 2 canoes plus a paddle boat with life jackets, paddles, etc. are included. The hosts have thought of everything and are easy to communicate with.We plan to rent again!
This is our fifth stay at the lake house. We only brought our personal items and food. Everything else was provided. It was a little cooler this trip so we really enjoyed the fireplace. Our dog loved sitting on the dock just taking in the views. He also loved swimming in the lake. We’ll be back for our sixth stay.
Second stay at this beautiful lakeside property and will stay again next year! Owners are great to deal with. Location is awesome, very quiet and secluded
We stayed with our family and absolutely loved everything about this cabin and property! The location is perfect, providing privacy and a large backyard for playing games and campfires. The fishing was great, and our kids loved swimming in the lake!
The property is well maintained, clean and decorated with a very inviting feel. The area is very quite, the fishing was great and the views were awesome. Very nice place for a family vacation!
This is our fifth time staying at this property. It is great for our dog and the lake is nice and clear with a sandy bottom. Lake level was up so no beach this year but still a great stay and location.
This was a great stay for my family and I, including 4 adults and 3 kids. The property was perfect size, large back for the kids to run around, comfortable beds, and everything you need for a week's getaway. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly, and quick to respond. We would love to come back again next year!
We have stayed at numerous VRBO properties in northern MN but this was our favorite one! Location is perfect, remote and private yet close to towns, saw a lot of wildlife each day, beautiful lake, large yard, and the cabin itself is very clean and updated, just perfect! We plan on staying here again in the future, owners are great people too!
Great cabin, in a great location on a beautiful little lake. The cabin was comfy, clean and inviting. Lynne was great to work with. Would highly recommend.
Great getaway for the family to sit back, relax and have some quiet time away. Very peaceful lake retreat that was in excellent condition and one of the best stocked VRBO houses we’ve stayed at. Lake was excellent with plenty of fish and great for paddle boarding. Will definitely look it up again if in the area! Thanks!
This is a lovely cabin on a very quiet lake, a good place if you want solitude, quiet, and privacy. It is our third time staying here. There were some new appliances and kitchen upgrades this year - an added bonus.
Location of lake home is perfect for a quiet week away. The screened in porch is wonderful for looking out over the lake. Our dog loved swimming in the lake and watching all the fish around the dock. The yard was perfect for playing fetch too. We enjoyed watching the geese, ducks and ground squirrels. We’re already planning our next trip to the lake house.

We loved this home. It exceeded our expectations!
Home was very clean and well stocked. Beds very comfortable! Communication with owner was timely and easy. Enjoyed sitting by the gas fireplace after snowshoeing! This VRBO is what you hope for from a rental! Thank you Lynne!
I was looking to get out of the city to reconnect with myself and nature. This cabin is one of my favorite places on earth and only 2.5 hours from Minneapolis. If you are looking for a peaceful lake-life experience, this spot can't be beat. The cabin is comfortable, cozy, well-equipped, modern, yet has rustic vibes. Lynne, the host, is responsive and easy to work with. I look forward to my next stay!
This property is above and beyond. From the cleanliness to the views to the wildlife surrounding it. It is everything that it says it is. We were so happy and relaxed. It was really hard to leave the beautiful views…
