About this property

Spacious Home In Lake City, MN With "Dramatic Views" Of Lake Pepin!

"Dramatic Views" is a nautical retreat in Lake City, MN with dramatic views of Lake Pepin. The main floor has a large living room with a wonderful bay window and window seat that offers amazing views of Lake Pepin, sail boats and paddle boats, eagles and the bluffs of Wisconsin. There is a queen leather sofa bed and lots of additional seating, plus a large flat screen TV and an electric fireplace. The living room can be closed off by the drift wood sliding barn door to convert the living room into a fifth bedroom. The large dining room is furnished with a custom made farmhouse table that easily seats 12. There is also a first floor bedroom with a comfortable king sized bed, along with a large tiled bathroom with an over-sized step in shower on the main floor.

The remodeled kitchen features granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and a unique Café space off of the kitchen with a pass thru counter between the Café and the kitchen. The Café features a counter height gathering table that seats 4. It's the perfect space for that morning cup of coffee for the early risers of the group, dining, games, cocktails, and of course, just hanging out. A large laundry room/pantry is just off of the kitchen and has great additional storage for all those vacation goodies that everyone brings.

Off of the Café towards the rear of the home is a second large living space or "family room" that features another flat screen TV, lots of seating and a beamed ceiling. The family room also has a dramatic view of Lake Pepin with a second wonderful bay window and window seat. Just off of the family room is a three season porch and off the other side of the family room is an attached garage.

Outside you'll find lots of outdoor seating, two fire pits, a weber gas grill and a patio table with umbrella. This arrangement offers the perfect outdoor setting to relax, relive the fun day and to enjoy family, friends and the dramatic view of Lake Pepin all over again!

The second floor has three additional nautical bedrooms. The first bedroom has a queen size bed, a flat screen TV and dramatic views of Lake Pepin and the beautiful bluffs across the lake. The second bedroom is a charming room with two twin beds tucked into their respective alcoves. The third bedroom or the "Crew Quarters" is a large room with a queen bed, two twin beds, a flat screen TV and a seating area. The upstairs also has a full bathroom with a tub/shower.

All linens are provided and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you might need. We know that you will find this home spacious, comfortable and the perfect venue to bring family and friends together!

The entire house and yard are available to you and your family during your stay! The driveway can accommodate 5 vehicles and there is ample parking on the side street.

Even though this looks like a new listing, "Dramatic Views" is an existing 5 star vacation rental through VRBO since 2014 and we are experienced hosts. We owned The Meier Inn, a 5 star Bed and Breakfast in Wisconsin for many years. Come and experience Lake City and see how beautiful the widest part of the Mississippi and the bluffs surrounding the area really are!!

Perfect get away along the Mississippi /Lake Pepin
This was a perfect property for us and our family. This trip was planned as a gift to my 80+ year old parents, especially dad, so we could go to the National Eagle Center in Wabasha, 20 min down the road. Lake City is centrally located and about 20 minutes from the 2 bridges that cross the Mississippi, which made exploring surrounding areas easy. This house was exactly what we had hoped for and more. Lots of space, yet cozy as well; awesome views of Lake Pepin; charming and thoughtfully layed out; great 1sr floor bath and bedroom for my aging parents who needed a first floor room and bathroom; We were only a party of 6, 2 of which were teens who loved having their own bedrooms and privacy. However the property truly does hold 12, and is set up to hold twelve people in comfort, rather than as an afterthought. We have stayed in many VRBOs and this at the top of our list. Lots of small details included labeled light switches, for all the different light fixtures around the house, extra folding tables for outside cookouts or puzzle building (which we enjoyed on the many rainy days we had), fans in several rooms to offset occasional road noise, fully stocked kitchen and baths, high quality furnishings, and comfortable couches. So many rental homes have cheaper furniture in them, but that is not the case here. The hosts were wonderdul and always accessible via text for any questions - very helpful. I would stay here again!

Great Holiday Time
We have been gathering at thanksgiving for many years and Dramatic Views was a wonderful place to cook our complete dinner. This kitchen is very well stocked and the table was able to fit all of us and food. We also used the table for many rounds of games. Even at the end of November we enjoyed getting out and exploring the area. We have stayed there before and will consider it again.

Family Time by the Lake
A beautiful, spacious, comfortable place to stay. We spent a long weekend here with our daughters, their significant others and our young grandson. The location was perfect and the views of the lake so beautiful and relaxing.Our hosts provided everything we could possibly need both inside and out. They literally thought of everything! We had a lovely time and are looking forward to a return visit.

Lake City stay on Lake Pepin
This home was just perfect for the 7 cousins who get together annually. It was clean, spacious and so comfortable. The home was decorated in a nautical theme that was done so well! The lake view was amazing! The sunrise photo I took was just spectacular. We didn’t use the bikes but the river walk through Lake City was great. We ended our stay with a campfire. We all loved this home. We got to meet the hosts to tell them what fun we all had!! So nice!!

About the host

Hosted by Sandy and Eric Meier

Host profile image
Hi! We are Sandy and Eric Meier and we moved to beautiful Lake City, MN in 2018 to enjoy a slower pace of life. We had a 5 star Bed and Breakfast in Wisconsin called "The Meier Inn" and a grass fed beef farm. We have also "flipped" 11 homes in the previous 20 years. We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to purchase "Dramatic Views" an existing vacation rental from friends of ours. This beautiful home has been a 5 star vacation rental on another booking site for a number of years. We are looking forward to maintaining that same level of quality!
We love to travel, enjoy great food, cook, bake, garden, spend time with our children and grandchildren and spend time boating and fishing on Lake Pepin. We volunteer in our community and have joined a number of organizations. We love our little town and know that you will too!!

Why they chose this property

"Dramatic Views" is a spacious home (3400 square feet) with the best views in Lake City! The nautical décor will provide a fun and relaxed feel to your stay! Having a family room, living room, sun room, a small and large dining available to your big group allows for family and friends to have enough space to spread out and not feel like they are on top of each other. "Dramatic Views" is the perfect place for your next gathering!
