This house is very nice! We stayed for Christmas and everything was perfect. The kitchen is very big and has everything we needed. The bunk room is so cool! All of the bedrooms are beautifully decorated, and the beds are so comfortable. Every room in this house is stunning. We can’t thank you enough!

Lovely stay

Great spot for families - we had 3 families with kids between the ages of 7-14 and the house suited us well! Clean, lovely, space for kids in the bunk room, close to Giants Ridge and so many thoughtful details like detergent pods for the washing machine! We would go back again in a heartbeat!

Spring Skiing (60• warmth)

We had a great time getting in one last ski trip. This home was great for our group and had everything needed. The kids enjoyed the game room/loft and the adults enjoyed the view and back patio. We would definitely recommend this home to others. A summer stay here would be even more enticing!

Perfect

Spent a winter weekend with kids and grandkids, we loved the house. The large dining table was great for games and meals together. The bunk room was a huge hit, watched several movies on the big screen, played games, and all of the grandkids had their personal space. The four other bedrooms provided plenty of room for the adults. The only problem we had was getting in the driveway during a snowstorm as there is a hill and a curve to negotiate. We were very glad to see the plow person show up the next morning, ensuring we would have no problems. As this property is very new, I imagine will be better in the future. We loved our time here and can't wait to return!Thanks again Jake and Annie

Christmas at the Aurora Lakeside Retreat

The memories made celebrating Christmas of 2024 will always be cherished! This beautiful home was the perfect place for our large family to celebrate Christmas together. The attention to detail, impeccable furnishings AND a fully decorated and lit Christmas tree ( a surprise by the owners) struck us as we entered this newly constructed home. The kitchen was well equipped and very organized and the dining area large enough for our family. We loved gathering around the fireplace and the whole main level is so cozy. All 4 bedrooms and 3 baths were beautiful!Our grandchildren's faces as they crossed the catwalk into the bunk room was unforgettable. They loved that space more than I can say! From watching movies on the large projection tv, playing foosball and air hockey to just talking till late in the evening in their bunk beds...it is something they'll never forget. Our granddaughters especially loved the little light within each bunk space where they cozied in to read every night of our stay.What also impressed us were the owners of this home. They responded quickly to any questions or requests and also to an issue out of their control. Their response was far above and beyond normal expectations, especially during the holidays. We've rented through VRBO in Florida multiple times and this by far surpasses any of our past experiences. We recommend this home to anyone looking for an absolutely gorgeous retreat away from home in the north woods of Minnesota.
