We had a great 5 days on Mille Lacs at this property! It's clean, has all of the amenities you need including kayaks, paddleboard, paddleboat, and plenty of games. The kitchen is well stocked, the beds are comfortable, the dock has perfect bumpers for tying up a boat. Wigwam bay itself is quiet, which made it easy for the kids to enjoy time on the water. The backyard and deck have plenty of shade which makes it easy to relax, even on hot summer days. We would definitely come back here if we had the opportunity someday. Mike, the property manager, was very responsive to all of our questions.

First of all, the communication with the host was top notch. Very informative and quick to reply. The unit itself was immaculate when we arrived, and had everything that was mentioned in the listing, and then some.We stayed for four nights and we were fortunate to have beautiful weather the whole time. For those who fish, be aware that this is a relatively shallow lake, and you really need a boat to get to the better fishing spots. We ended up renting a boat from Terry's in Garrison and were able to catch some nice smallmouth bass (and one northern that got away) in the place he recommended that we go.I would definitely put this unit on your "short list" if looking for a place on Mille Lacs Lake.

Muskie fishing getaway

We had a lovely stay on Mille Lacs and fully utilized all this property's amenities. The boys were out fishing every day on the paddle boat and we enjoyed sunset kayak trips around the cove. The deck was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. The kitchen was extremely well stocked for us to fry fish, cook big breakfasts, and whip up sandwiches for on the go. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic Vacation

Starting from the booking to the checkout this was the place for a nice get away! The manager was responsive for all inquiries. The home was well maintained and had everything for amenities especially for one rainy day. The casino was just 4 minutes away with a nice golf course just 4 minutes away in the other direction. This may just become an annual stay for us with how relaxing and modern the home was. Thanks for the great time!

What a fabulous property! So well equipped with lots of lovely touches. We enjoy cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed and great bbq. The deck and outside equipment was great. Unfortunately weather wasn’t as good as we would have liked so didn’t get out on the lake much but enjoyed just sitting about in and around the house. We would definitely come back if we are planning on staying at Mille Lacs again.

Great getaway on the lake

Everything was just as described. And more than enough to keep you entertained, games, ping pong, darts. Kitchen was amazing and well equipped, (so much so we came home an ordered the same toaster, so cool). Beds were very comfortable. It was very relaxing just enjoying the lake and wildlife from the deck. Mike was very responsive for our inquiries. Lake toys were used by everyone in the family. Nice restaurant and grocery store in the town of Garrison also.

Family trip to Garrison

We brought our family here for a short summer vacation. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the weather. We had a day of rain. The house was beautiful. Our grandchildren loved using the padellboard, paddle boat, and kiok. They now want to come back for a winter trip for ice fishing. Thanks for helping us to create some great family memories.

Great stay at the Cove

This was a well maintained new property that was perfect for our family. The kitchen had everything we needed and everything was fairly new. Beds were comfortable. Firepit was great in the evenings. So many lake toys, a lily pad to float on, kayaks and stand up paddle board were very fun too. The basement has a game room with darts, ping pong and axe throwing which kept us busy. A bit remote from most towns nearby and right next to a motel. You do hear the noises from nearby road. It was an excellent relaxing stay and we would return.
