2026 calendar now open! Beachfront - Lake of the Woods Kenora w/ boat launch!

Was a great vacation for our family of 9, house was clean and tidy with lots of space. Nice relaxing location, fishing was great. Weather was beautiful . Kids enjoyed every moment from lake life, fishing from the dock, to inside games , paddle boat, beach toys, kayaks. Nice to be walking distance to local grocery store, that had a great variety of goods. If there were any question or concerns hosts, John and Lana were just a phone call away.

Great beds. All good.

Lots of room for family to stay and plenty to do both in the home and out. A beautiful little beach and fire put area, right on the water! Fishing guides can pick you up right on your dock!

When we arrived we were met at the location by the owner and provided a tour. We then spent 3 days cleaning as it was not clean, cleaning responsibilities are placed on the guests. We feel this wasn’t cleaned or cleaned well prior to our arrival. We dealt with MANY spiders, an individual with us was bit by two different spiders during our stay, we are from Minnesota, we are use to spiders, but we dealt with many during our stay, we also dealt with ants like crazy. Certain spots of the home, we didn’t use such as the screened in porch, due to excessive amounts of mouse traps and we had 4 children with. The rest of the home had ant traps all over so that was challenging keeping them away from children. We are still pulling splinters out of our 1.5 years old hands due to all the wooden railings, and stairs outside- could use some upkeep. We also had one stair step at the top portion of the stairs rotting- we did communicate this to the owner, as well as a wasp nest. The property in the VRBO pictures, were older pictures as the beach was overgrown with thistles, and the beach is a lot smaller now and in person then what was in the photos we had seen and thought we were getting. We did use the kayaks which made for a fun addition for our 9 and 13 year olds. The main area couches were falling apart, and had holes. For the dock, there is no electricity. The baby gate was able to be unlocked and opened by the baby due to the railings. Nice location. Wildlife.

This property is fantastic for a family get away! It was wonderful to have the dock and beach area with the boat launch right next door. The owner reached out to us a couple days ahead of our arrival with alot helpful information and was very responsive when we contacted him with questions.

Comfortable home. Lots of things to keep you entertained. Beautiful waterfront.

Rented this place with the family. Weather was perfect so we were outside most of the time! Never did really play with any of the indoor things but nice to know that the option was there incase the weather was bad out. Great fishing as well!! Love how the boat launch was right beside us. Beach and sand area as very nice for the younger kids. Off the dock , the water is pretty shallow this time so the older kids weren’t able to jump off the dock. No Air conditioning but property had lots of fans in every room. John was there to welcome us and give us a tour of the place. Overall, would highly recommend this place!!! And would definitely consider renting again.

We brought our adult kids and grandkids for some family time away and this cottage did NOT disappoint! Enough space for the entire family and so much to do for everyone. Between the game room, the water, nearby park, hiking trails, fire pit, we were all busy (or relaxing) the entire time. I have zero complaints! John was available for any questions we had and the experience was amazing. Thank you so much! Only downside was that we didn’t want to go home.

Beautiful property on Lake of the Woods. During our stay it was cool and raining which prevented us from fully enjoying the lake, amenities and great outdoors. No doubt when the weather is nice and warm this is a great place to stay. We enjoyed the sunroom and would recommend for families, big or small

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. John was a pleasure to deal with and always answered questions very quickly. Nothing beats the view on this cottage! They have all the fun beach toys for the adults and kids to explore the lake with. The park is just down the street and the kids loved riding their scooters down to the park. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a nice place at Lake of the Woods. We will be back.
