Sound really carries over the water, and we want our neighbors to enjoy their time at their cabins, too. Same goes for talking loudly early in the mornings and late in the evenings. Thank you!

    Host was responsive with questions- home nice and setting was great. Overstuffing 2 of 4 bedrooms with twin beds to say sleeps 13 creates practical problems like not being able to use closet for any guest group size. Kitchen appliances nice but the kitchen was missing key items like a baking casserole dish, regular juice glasses etc.

    The house was very roomy for we 10 (six adults, four kids under 6). Having 3.5 bathrooms between the 10 of us was very good. The master bedroom/bath is extremely nice, and includes a balcony on the top level overlooking the lake. There is nice green space on the way to the beach, which is well-groomed. The water has a VERY gradual slope to a drop off we never went to -- it was way out there. That gradual slope was great for the grandkids - they had a lot of room in the water to play.

    Beautiful property!! It's secluded so it was peaceful and quiet with lovely views! Our 3 year old LOVED playing in the water and sand and we especially enjoyed having a firepit next to the lake. This place was the perfect size to accommodate our small family gathering of 7. Would definitely vacation here again! :)

    This was a lovely setting for a get away with the girls. Plenty of space to spread out, though a great central gathering area with a wonderful view of the lake. We enjoyed rock hunting on the beach, shopping in Nisswa, and listening to the loons at night.

    The house was perfect for an adult women getaway in the winter. The home was very clean and we enjoyed the large space to congregate. The lower level was a lovely space as well. The beds were so comfortable, extra bedding was available. The property and view were lovely. Overall, the space was comfortable, clean and we appreciated the beautiful space.

    We have stayed on this lake before, actually next door and decided we needed more space -The home offers good space from the lower level to the upper level bedrooms. The kitchen allows for adequate room to cook, the dining is a little tight in space; there is the screened porch area that we utilized for extra space when eating. The beach and access to the dock with seats was wonderful. The kids enjoyed kayaking, swimming and the sandy beach. We did find that some of the mattress’s were not overly comfortable. Overall a nice home, comfortable, clean. Fabulous lake and beach. Able to take walks on the road, close to area amenities for eating out. We have booked for 2025.

    This house is beautiful and the screened is porch is an excellent amenity, but what sets this property apart is the beach area. The sand is soft and smooth, the water is clear, and the lake is shallow (under three feet) for the first hundred yards or so. For families with kids, it's a dream location. We've stayed here four or five times now, and even though it's a six-hour drive for us, we keep coming back for that beautiful beach.
