Family getaway

We had a great time with all of our kids and grandkids. There were plenty of bedrooms so everyone got their own space. And we enjoyed time together in the many gathering rooms and beside the pool. We also enjoyed walks through the neighborhood. It was a perfect location for a large group.

Lovely place IF

If you don’t mind hidden fees and a lot of rules, then this is the place for you! The place is huge, rooms are great and we very much enjoyed the pool. Just read the fine print and know that there are high expectations for renters.

Great Place for Large Group

This rental is a great place to stay for a large group of all ages. Safety fence around the pool made everyone with young kids much more comfortable. The overall price with the nightly rate and all the fees was more than we would have liked to pay, but overall we had a great stay.

Very pleased with our stay!

We stayed at this home for a work conference. The location was near by and we needed an area to fit our team. We decided to give a VRBO a try instead of a hotel this year and we were so happy to have found this home! The host was incredibly accommodating, and very good at communicating. The house was well kept and we all felt right at home. We will definitely be returning next year!

Best weekend away!

We loved everything about this house! It accommodated our family of 16 wonderfully! We had originally planned excursions into Minneapolis but there was so much to do within the house; in the pool/sauna/hot tub/firepot) and within walking distance of the house (pickleball/disc golf/walking trails/tennis courts)! It was GREAT!And one of the very best parts of our stay was working with Steve who was fabulous with communication and attentiveness! We would love to return to this house for future family celebrations!

Fantastic house!

I couldn't have been more pleased with this house. In fact, it's even more impressive in person than what you see in the picture. We had plenty of space, and the property is very well kept. There are tons of games/activities available - and it's a relatively quick trip into the city. I'd absolutely stay here again!

Family Gathering

I needed to find a home for my rather large family to stay for my husband's Celebration of Life. This house was perfect! It was well appointed, had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the location was perfect for us. I just wish we could have enjoyed it in the warmer months, as there are so many nice outdoor amenities as well.The owner, Steve, was very accommodating to all of our needs. I would highly recommend this property.Thank you!

This is a lovely property. Easy to book, good communication. The home was well-appointed and everything was clean and in working order. We had 8 adults which was luxurious and perfect but one could easily have more folks. There were specific rules about the neighborhood but they were clear-be sure to check those ahead of time. But if those work for you, would definitely recommend.Especially nice: quality of beds, lots of dining spaces/table spaces, plenty of kitchen space, sauna, hot tub, movie room, game room. Lots of distinct spaces, accessible Alexa speakers, easy to get to, plenty of laundry machines, pool/hot tub towels provided. We didn’t use the pool or lake or fire pit but those seemed awesome too.Steve and his partner were responsive and easy to work with.

Family Reunion at the Magical Lake Home

Wow! We had 24 people aged infant to 70 and we never felt cramped. It was the first time our family has ALL been together since Grandma and Grandpa passed away 7 years ago. It was a very special time. The home was fabulous and we totally enjoyed all the amenities such as the pool, hot tub, movie room, etc. Steve was very responsive to my questions and planning for this trip. A1 host.

Great giant home with an excellent host

Host was incredible. Stayed in contact with our needs. And well stocked on everything. I checked on firewood and was thinkin about doin a fire next day and asked if there was an extra stash because there was only 1-2 pieces left and the next morning we had a front door with 2 bags full of firewood . But that’s the kind of host he was. Very responsive and professional! Great and beautiful house with more rooms than we needed but was great to have all the space! Hot tub was clean and like new and the sauna was great. Only downside was we went in march so the pool was still closed. But we’ll get it next time we’re there maybe in the summer !
