We had a lovely time being together as a family at this property. Even though the lake was at winter levels, we still enjoyed the views from the main level. The kitchen was well equipped to make family meals. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. The layout is nice for families.
Quiet, peaceful stay right on the lake. A lot of living space and absolutely everything we needed for our stay was available to us. Added bonus was the attentiveness of the owner, Mark. He was available via text/phone for all of our questions. Really hoping to come back to this beautiful place.
Amazing location, views, and serenity. Owners go above and beyond to provide all amenities, games, coffee, and very well-stocked kitchen supplies with everything you could need when away from home. Everything was easy to find, labeled, easy to access.
We stayed at this lake home during a ski trip to Welch Village. The house was perfect for our family of five to enjoy. 25 min drive to the ski hill. Hot tub for an apres ski soak, and fun activities for family game nights (pinball, darts, puzzles and more). Mark and Ann were very communicative and keep the house well-appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay!
We stayed at this lovely lakeside home in Cannon Falls while in town for a wedding, and it was perfect! The house was clean & comfortable, with gorgeous lake views right from the deck. We enjoyed peaceful mornings by the water and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area!
We felt like we were staying with family…the house was perfect…so cozy and warm and had everything we needed. The yard and plants were pure perfection…so green and beautiful! We had so much fun kayaking, fishing, catching lightning bugs, and just enjoying the beautiful outdoors!
