This house was absolutely stunning much bigger than anticipated and the view of the lake is 10 stars hands-down! This home was well equipped with everything you need in the kitchen, a barbecue outside and beautiful patio furniture and even a fire stove for late nights with gorgeous views of the lake. The host were wonderful, they even set up the dining room for high tea. The outdoor space the front yard was large and well maintained with beautiful flowers. The house were wonderful and available if anything was needed. Very easy to check in check out in a beautiful neighborhood. I’d recommend this for any families or gatherings, it definitely made our girls trip of sex. One of the better vacation days we’ve had. Your Freinds from Alaska

An absolutely terrific property!! We are a group of eight women who have rented this gorgeous Lake Phalen Place several times. Each time we return, we remark how perfect it is… Spacious. Quiet. Great beds. The kitchen is so well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, tea kettle, coffee appliances, even crock pots. The living room, kitchen, and dining room have plenty of seating for all of us. The location is so very lovely. Walks around the lake are a bonus, as well as the beautiful view, especially at sunset. More importantly the hosts are amazing! Thank you, Bill and Sakouna!!! We shall return!
