About the host
Hosted by Matt and Jodie Johnson
Our family has always loved spending time at the lake, and The Waterfront on Long Lake was created to share that experience with others. We wanted to create a place where guests could slow down, reconnect, and enjoy everything that makes Minnesota lake life so special. From morning coffee overlooking the water to afternoons spent swimming, kayaking, and enjoying the sunshine, every aspect of this home was designed to help guests relax and make lasting memories.
We've thoughtfully equipped the home with the amenities and comforts we would want for our own family, including a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable gathering spaces, waterfront recreation, and even a Peloton for guests who want to stay active during their stay.
As local owners who live on Long Lake ourselves, we take great pride in providing an exceptional guest experience and sharing one of our favorite places with visitors. Nothing makes us happier than hearing about the memories our guests create while enjoying life on the lake.
We hope The Waterfront on Long Lake becomes a place you'll want to return to year after year.

We chose Long Lake because it offers everything we love about Minnesota lake life. In fact, we loved it so much that we chose to make it our home and live on the same lake ourselves.
Long Lake offers the perfect combination of beautiful scenery, excellent swimming, boating, fishing, and peaceful waterfront living. One of our favorite features is the sandy-bottom shoreline, which makes enjoying the water easy and fun for guests of all ages.
We also love that Long Lake feels private and relaxing while still being just minutes from Detroit Lakes. Guests can enjoy waterfront sunsets, outdoor recreation, local restaurants, shopping, golf courses, trails, seasonal events, and the area's famous trolls, all while returning to the tranquility of lake life at the end of the day.
We are proud to call Long Lake home and excited to share this special place with our guests.
