About the host
Hosted by Marjorie Safaie
We are native Minnesotans who moved to California in 2003. I, Marjorie, grew up in neighboring Aitkin. Both my husband and I enjoyed the summers and the lakes of Minnesota and had both dreamed of owning a vacation property there someday. We have many family members and friends in Minnesota and this large home has been a wonderful place to gather.
Why they chose this property
Our vacationers love how it is mostly one level living, including the pool table and game room, which is visible from the kitchen so even those who are doing the cooking are part of the fun!
We stayed here as a vacation rental spot for our own family in Summer 2017. We absolutely fell in love with everything about the property, and knew this was where our dream would become a reality. The home is amazing, the lot it sits on is private and peaceful, the lake is so close you can talk to those on the dock from the balcony!! Furthermore, we enjoy this area because of the water activities, huge property and lot for our family to spread out in while there, restaurants and activities nearby if we want to get out, great golfing nearby. And, only two hours to get to from the Minneapolis airport. Great restaurants and golfing within 10 minutes!

What makes this property unique
The resident loon and eagles on this lake never fail to inspire us. Our property is around 2 acres filled with oak and pine trees and in a rural ,peaceful setting. Now that we own this home, we have made a few additions so our family and all the kids and adults alike will enjoy it even more including a pool table with a ping pong table overlay. Hours of fun, if the lake itself isn't already enough!!
