This house is spacious and well suited for families! There were comfortable sleeping areas for our wide range of ages. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. We all slept well in the comfortable beds. The park across the street and the 4 kayaks were a bonus!
This home feels like a cabin up north and with the lake right out back makes for a perfect spot to spend time with family. The house is well equipped and the furniture comfortable. We had bonfires, swam in the lake and enjoyed some nice sunsets. The owner was quick to respond when we reached out to her. We will hope to stay here again.
The house was beautiful located on Spring Lake. The only downer was the fishing. If you're looking to fish, try other lakes in the area. Otherwise, the house was great. Only a 40 minute drive from Minneapolis with good restaurants in the area.
Beautiful lake view from the living room and upstairs loft. Host responded to our question promptly. Home is as listed. Our family loved fishing from the dock & did catch some fish. Granddaughters also enjoyed the nearby park. The home has lots of seating on the deck for visiting or eating outside. Good location with lots of nearby activities and restaurants. Our family made lots of memories.
The manager was extremely responsive and answered any questions quickly. The lake cabin was as advertised and really was a nice place. As stated in other reviews, limited paper products-paper towels, napkins, soap and shampoo but- I asked prior and was told what was provided. Kitchen is decently equipped and we did cook full meals there. The kayaks were great and were used by several. I would recommend for a nice break. Our extended family enjoyed.
Great quiet lake setting, perfect for a family. Lots of room, and super soft sheets. Great selection of video games.
Suggestions to homeowners: rooms are very dark. Brighter lights, at least in the bathrooms. Knives were very dull. Full length mirror and makeup mirror would be awesome.
Thank you!
Our son's wedding was at Stonebrooke Golf Club in Shakapee. The home was a perfect place for our immediate family to stay for the wedding weekend.
We enjoyed the beautiful view of the lake from the home. The home was well equipped with cooking utensils and other kitchen items needed for cooking and grilling. The bedrooms and gathering spaces were spacious. Our family also enjoyed utilizing the kayaks.
The owner, Connie, was extremely friendly and responsive by both text and phone. I highly recommend this property.
Only one suggestion for future guests - be sure to bring your own paper towels and showering/bathing supplies (shampoo, etc).
Enjoy this beautiful home.
Great location for Family Gathering, and we really enjoyed the lake access and kayaks. The location is only 30 minutes from the airport. However, we could only access the property after 4 pm and were surprised to find out the the following were not included, which required a run to a local store for supplies:
• Paper towels
• Napkins
• Laundry detergent
• Shampoo and body wash in bathrooms
• Cutting boards (has cutting sheets)
• Salt and pepper
• Olive oil
• Coffee
• Facial tissues
Also, there was not dishwasher and guests are expected to wash all dishes and put them away before departing by 10 am.
We had a VRBO for 5 years in Anacortes Washington and stay in vacation rentals all over the world. The supplies listed above are expected. think that future guests need a list of what they need to supply themselves.
Where do I begin? I found this property and based on the information provided, I knew it would be a great fit for our group. When we arrived and walked in the door, I knew our week stay was going to be outstanding. The property was super clean and had enough supplies for our stay. We knew we had to bring additional paper goods and that the property didn’t have a dishwasher but we were prepared for that. The air conditioner and wi-fi worked great. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. There was a generous supply of towels and blankets. The kitchen was very well stocked. The lake shore is a bit rocky with weeds but we took the boat out and enjoyed the lake tubing and swimming. The location is 6 minutes from the Mystic Lake Casino and The Largest Candy Store in Minnesota which is a must see! Connie, the owner, was very prompt at answering my texts and super easy to work with. I would highly recommend this property. .
Very clean! Appreciated fishing poles and kayaks. Was convenient to have beach towels provided. Enjoyed our stay lots todo Host was extremely helpful and so responsive!
We loved our stay at this great home. The fishing off the dock was wonderful. We enjoyed our family reunion at this location. The home was clean, ample supplies, nicely decorated and what a view of the lake. We highly recommend staying here. We hope to return next year. Nancy and Dave from Colorado
Fantastic location right on the lake and just steps from Spring Lake Regional Park. Was fantastic to wake up and enjoy coffee while floating in a kayak! Also, plenty of fish to catch. Accommodated our family reunion nicely. Owner is friendly and quick to respond to questions. Great place.
This was a nice roomy cabin we all enjoyed. Well supplied kitchen on main floor, downstairs was like a separate apartment. Plenty of entertainment space on main and lower level, upstairs had a nice loft and great master suite. Great to have fun with the kayaks on the lake.
This was a great house for us to spread out in and enjoy a long beautiful Minnesota summer weekend. The kitchen was very well stocked, everything was clean and in working order and there was more than enough room for all of us. We especially enjoyed the shaded lawn where we could relax after a day boating. We would highly recommended this house.
We had a wonderful time staying on Spring Lake for a month. The location was great! FYI - the road is kind of busy. Connie was wonderful to work with and very responsive. There was plenty of room and the home was well stocked. Thank you Connie!
