A wonderful Winter relaxation

With the temperatures so cold, this property was the perfect place to stay in at. A cozy kitchen that we enjoyed visiting and cooking in, a cozy dining room for our delicious meal, and easy travel to visit local antique businesses and restaurants close by.

Home away from home

We stayed here a year ago when we came up to visit family. We enjoyed staying here then so when we were looking for a place to stay we knew where we wanted to stay. The hosts are wonderful people, and so caring. The house is by the lake with wonderful views.!.

We are happy repeat visitors. The home is very cute, and had everything we need. There were countless special touches that made our stay comfortable and downright delightful. The hosts truly go above and beyond. We enjoyed walking around the lake, visiting the ice cream place, hiking at the nearby state park, and going to the local winery. We also enjoyed our time sitting on the front porch.

Our Stay in Albert Lea

The house was very nice and well appointed. We enjoyed its location by the lake, if the weather was better we would have enjoyed the front porch. The only upgrade we would have is access to stand alone shower, the claw foot tub was difficult for us to manage.

Hi Lisa, thank you for the review. I'm sorry you found the tub challenging.and I appreciate your suggestion for the stand alone shower. At this time that is not in the cards for us, but, who knows what the future may bring! Thanks for staying with us.

Summer fun

Nice location, close to everything and across the street from Fountain Park. It was only the two of us so we enjoyed our time fishing, shopping and eating at some of the local restaurants. The front porch was our favorite spot in the morning and evening. Eat'n Ice Cream Shoppe across the street was a favorite of ours in the evening!
