Tom’s cabin was the perfect spot for our group of several families for the week. The cabin was very clean and well equipped with plenty of room for us to spread out. We rented the pontoon which was a great addition to our week. We would love to stay again!
The cabin was extremely clean and Tom was great to work with. He communicated quickly whenever we had a question. The kitchen was great and all appliances worked well! After a thunderstorm most of the sand washed into the lake, but of course, that wasn't anyone's fault. We would definitely stay here again.
This was a great place for our family vacation, and everyone enjoyed our time! The sandy beach & all of the outside space was a hit with the little ones! We are making plans for next year's family vacation & will see if this property is available after we figure out our dates.
We had a wonderful family getaway and made so many great memories! The lake was calm and peaceful, the kids (1, 3 & 6) loved catching little fish off the dock, and the adults had fun fishing for bass from the pontoon. We also had so much fun watching the wildlife—a loon family on the lake, a tree frog that visited the north patio sliding door almost every night, and catching tadpoles, frogs, and minnows. The kayaks and paddle boat were also a huge hit!The cabin was overall clean and comfortable, and the owner was very responsive and kind. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues during our stay, and he was quick to address them. He came to fix the downstairs sink within a day and was very understanding about the other items we brought to his attention from previous guests.A few things future guests may want to know: there isn't much outdoor lounge furniture beyond the chairs around the fire pit, and the cabin doesn't provide some basic kitchen/stay supplies we've found at other rentals, such as aluminum foil, Ziploc bags, marshmallow roasting sticks, or a scrub pad. We were just surprised since we've typically found these at other cabins, so plan accordingly.We also enjoyed having the option to rent the pontoon, which really added to our experience, although it did make the overall cost a little higher for our family.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay! The peaceful lake, wildlife, fishing, boating, and family-friendly atmosphere made it a great place for our ye
We had an amazing time at the lake. The house was beautiful with everything we needed. Very clean and comfortable. Fishing was a bust, but we enjoyed the pontoon and beach area. Will definitely stay again.
We loved our time here for family vacation with our adult kids, total of 10 people. Beautiful lake, very clean. We spent alot of time on floaties, on the deck visiting, eating and playing games, and also fishing and bonfires a few nights. Easy check in, good communication. We would definitely come again!
Getting to the property was east and the house had all we needed. Our annual family get together of 13 fit nicely. Being able to rent the pontoon was great. The kitchen and backyard were perfect.
Our men's group had a great time utilizing this property for a retreat. We enjoyed swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and sitting around the fire pit in the evenings. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and enjoy meals together. Great space overall!
We highly recommend this cabin for any family. It is very clean and well stock with supplies. It is very convenient to the lake with a sandy beach. The fire pit is ideally located overlooking the lake. The owners were easy to work and answered our questions in a very timely manner. Our family had a wonderful time.
This was a very nice rental home. The lake was nice, we did lots of fishing and swimming. There was plenty of sleeping room for all of us. The grandkfids loved having the loft where they could sleep and hangout. The kitchen was big and it was great having another refrigerator downstairs for pop and juice. Would definintly stay here again.

Would this not be w9rthy of all 5 stars? Was there an issue?
We had our 3 adult children, their spouses and our grandkids with us for a summer vacation. The home was clean and just right for our needs. The lake was awesome. Grandkids caught fish, went kayaking and swimming. Lawn area was great for them to run around and the fire pit saw use every evening for smores and hobo pies. It was a great week at the lake for the entire family!

Our family of 11 spent a week at this Peavy Lake lake house. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but there were some issues. The house was nicely updated, clean and fit our needs very well. The lake was good for fishing and swimming and we enjoyed it. There was ample space for our three cars close to the house. The firepit is dated but we were happy to have it. However, there were some negatives that are relevant for future renters. The pontoon boat functioned fine and got us where we needed to be; however, it was dirty and not well-kept. The beach was not quite as advertised. The actual usable water space was small and the weeds were very thick around most of the dock. We did our swimming in the middle of the lake. The other issue with the beach and the yard was goose poop. Apparently, geese enjoy the beach and yard and we spent a considerable amount of time raking and shoveling the area to make it suitable for our kids to run around. When we brought this issue to the owner's attention, he reluctantly cleaned some of the poop but claimed no responsibility for cleaning the mess. While we were there we saw geese in the water but they never came into the yard. If the yard is clean when you arrive, you may find that geese stay away when there are people around. I am giving this property a 3 star because, overall, it was a nice stay. However, future renters may want to check on the condition of the yard and the boat.

Thank you for your input.
However, the pontoon boat is kept outside on the dock, it just got pressure washed again had new seats and a new bimany top installed before you srrived and it is not part of the VRBO rental.
Again......we have absolutely no control over the wildlife, you were told the geese have been frequently coming onto the beach and were given a rake and a shovel just in case this happens.

Family getaway
This was our first experience through VRBO where we didn’t feel completely comfortable and welcomed.
Honest feedback.. the host could lighten up a bit in the hospitality department. We did have a great time with family and the water front and lake were beautiful.

Hi Molly,
I'm sorry our hospitality was not up to your standards. I'm assuming this is because, we could not drop everything and deliver more toilet paper to you. This was once you went through 9 rools in less than 36 hours. We strive to keep a clean, well stocked and welcoming home for all of our guests but, sometimes we miss the mark. Thank you for your feedback.
We LOVED IT. so peaceful, full of nature sights and sounds. It was myself and the kids, my grandchildren and their significant other.
The fishing was spotty, but not a bust. Shopping and casino were close. (30-45 minutes away)
Kayaks and canoeing were very fun.
Firepit fires at night making smores
We played cards the nights it rained.
The week went quickly.
