I went Waconia with my friends for a girl’s weekend and stayed at Andy and Gail’s Lake Street Retreat. They keep it clean, up to date and well stocked. They even have yoga matts for guest use. The location is great and within walking distance of many restaurants and cute shops. The view of the lake is wonderful. All over its a great place to stay for a weekend or longer!
