Lovely getaway

This isn’t your typical vacay rental that is filled with cheap, half broken furniture/supplies. Everything was quality and in good service. We spent a few days here, the kiddos loved the beach. The water was shallow (perfect for the littles), but deep enough to fish off the end of the dock. The property manager did text several times throughout our stay, which felt overwhelming but no complaints. We adore our time at Margaritaville on Crosslake!

Beautiful and Peaceful Location

The home is super clean, beautiful, cozy and relaxing. The kitchen is stocked with the right pans, dishes and utensils we needed to make meals. The bed was comfy. The view overlooking the lake is fantastic!Although the weather was cool during our stay, we were able to check out the little tiki bar and beach area. The beach is sandy and level. Looks to be a perfect place for kids to play and adults to relax. We plan to be back this summer to enjoy the tiki bar, beach and lake. The location is perfect for shopping and eating out. Crosslake is a cute town that includes places to shop for new clothing, fun souvenirs, antiques and thrift items. We love the restaurants including Maucieri's Italian Bistro, Mission Tavern and Moonlite Bay.The property manager provided all the necessary information needed to ensure efficient check-in and check-out.This home and the location did not disappoint!!

The home is well kept and easy to find.The home had most of the essentials. There were clean linens, dishes, paper towels, garbage bags, towels, shampoo, dish soap, etc.The rooms are spacious and work well. We had a frustration that none of the tables sat 6, but we knew that going in. One table seats 4, the counter seats 4, and the living room (upstairs and downstairs) both seat 5 comfortably and 6 if you don't mind being close.The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of storage.The location is great, the views are great, the dock was great. Despite being 8 acres, you do have neighbors on both sides (the lot must be very narrow). It didn't impact our stay, none of the neighbors were a problem.The beach was fantastic, probably the best beach we have been on. It is a good size - we played volleyball and it was not cramped. The lake is INCREDIBLE. This is a sandy lake and you can walk out 300' without dropoffs. Absolutely wonderful lake.The included toys were good. The kayaks are used but work well. The paddles are ok. The SUP is fine, missing the fins, but still useable. There are many toys in the TIKI hut. Some cheaper inflatables that we didn't use, but some yard game toys we did use; a fun surprise.The grill was only item needing real attention. Weber Genesis (we have same model) is on last legs. Overall we recommend. Good house, great location, incredible lake and beach.
