Holiday Homes in Lake Itasca

"Was just a short two night stay, way more comfortable and pleasurable than a motel stay for a similar price. A Great value."

"The property was amazing with an abundance of games. Many family memories were made, boating, bonfires and picturesque views."

"This home was everything my four sisters and I could have hoped for - and then some! It was clean, inviting, and beautiful! The kitchen was very well-equipped, and we didn't even have to buy coffee filters! What was especially impressive is that the host contacted me in advance to see if we planned to use the pull-out bed in the lower level and the bed on the four-season porch so that she could have them all made up for us (which she did!). The house is very roomy - whether you're gathering in the living room, the kitchen/dining room, or the lower level family room. We loved the four season porch and the two decks. It was also very conveniently located - just a few miles from the town of Park Rapids with its wonderful little downtown and shops, not to mention some great restaurants. (Thanks for the recommendations, Barbara!) We also drove just 10 miles north of Park Rapids to Itasca State Park, where you can see the headwaters of the Mississippi and literally walk across the river! They have a beautiful and educational Visitors Center and lots of walking paths. I cannot recommend this property highly enough! We usually go to a different destination every year for our Sisters' Trip, but if we decide to go back to the Park Rapids area, we'll definitely try to stay here!!"

"We came to the Northwoods of Minnesota to walk across the Mississippi River. We wanted to stay in a house that was quiet, yet close enough to make getting around easy. This house was big, inviting, clean and well-appointed (at least 25 towels in the bathroom, and they're brown so no one has to worry about makeup!!). There were 5 of us and a baby, and everyone had their own room with their own bed. The closets were full of big, fluffy, blankets in case someone got cold while they were sleeping. The house is pet-friendly (we don't have pets) and it was clean and didn't smell like leftover pets. The house is updated, including the kitchen, and made having meals together easy and enjoyable. The walk to the dock to watch the water and listen to the loons was relaxing and peaceful. We took a kayak across the lake. We sat out by the fire and watched the stars. We sat on the deck with our morning coffee to watch the fog lift. It was the perfect spot for a quick little getaway. About the only thing we didn't do was play in the sandbox (there is a sandbox for the kiddos!!)."

"Very neat cabin, clean and nicely stocked. Great place to stay. "

"Tremendous place to disconnect "

"Our group of 5 golfers was extremely happy with the accommodations! John and Wendy are great communicators! The furnishings and supplies exceed expectations! This lodge is even better than the photos. Best vacation rental that I have experienced!"

"This property met all of our needs. Layout of the rooms was great; furnishings were comfy; location was right where we wanted to be. Would love to stay here again - maybe a sister gathering. "

"Great cute little cottage. Close to the lake, which was great for visiting our family that was camping. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you "
