Premier Host Tetonka & Sakatah Lakes Dock, Kayaks & Lakeside Fire Pit & Gameroom

Beautiful large 6 bedroom corner home with Lake Tetonka access capable of sleeping up to18. The public beach is a 200 yard walk over a wooden bridge that crosses the beginnings of the Cannon River. Close to downtown and to Sakatah State Trail for biking and hiking. Many lakes close by for fishing and boating. Small hometown feel. Also close to largest waterpark in southern Minnesota less than 1 mile away at Kamp Dels. There is a dock, lakeside fire pit, and 6 kayaks available. We also have a 660 square foot game room above the garage complete with sofa bed, love seat, billiard table, card tables, air hockey, and a 1952 wood rail pinball machine. Bring your fishing gear, swim suits, pool cues, and life jackets and enjoy!

Great family destination!!!

This is a great family vacation destination! We were looking forward to kayaking. I expected only two kayaks. What a surprise to find six kayaks available for our use! We spent many hours kayaking, not to mention spending time in this beautiful house. I highly recommend this property.

The house was large and homey. It has some quirks, but was very nice for our large group. The beds are very soft, and the water can get scalding hot. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with spices/dry goods/ and a good assortment of cookware. A nice selection of fun plates that my toddler enjoyed. The location is great for access to Kamp Dels and downtown. We appreciated the lake access and dock, but found better swimming a quick drive away at Lake Francis. Our group enjoyed the easy access to bike trails and big green space. The game room was awesome and nice that it is separate from the main house. Greg was a very responsive host and we had a great time in Waterville.

Great Bang for your Buck

We booked this property because it was reasonably priced for the size, and we were pleased to find it had everything we needed and more. The beds were not the most comfortable, and there were a few cobwebs and spiders (to be expected near the lake), but it definitely met our expectations! Would stay again.

Time with family and grandchildren

Beautiful property. Much needed week away with family and young grandchildren. We were able to take advantage of the location. Local parks for the grand daughters and a field trip to the Schell’s Brewery for the adults.Two lakes to enjoy. One close by and the other very close. Local Kamp Dells is one of the best area resorts that does Day Passes during the week for fun and games.Space in yard allowed for us to have yard games and water table for the littles. Porch provided area out of the sun, and the game room above the garage was great for late night entertainment for adults.Much more house than our group needed, but 2 yr old grand daughter LOVED “her” Winnie the Pooh room and her birthday party while we were there.We were having difficulty finding property that would allow family pets, and were excited to find this one.Excellent communication from owner before booking, before our stay and during the stay. Thank you Greg!

Nice Family Weekend Getaway

We booked this place for a family wedding and it was in a great location to the venue. There was plenty of room for our extended family to stay. We had 1 issue with the house during our stay, but the owner came over and fixed it promptly. We enjoyed our time in Waterville. We drove to Minneapolis for 1 day and it was a shirt easy drive into the city.

This place was perfect for our family gathering. Everyone had plenty of room to hang-out . The homeowner was very responsive on any questions that we had. The lake across the street was great for the younger kids in the family to enjoy. We cooked on the grill and sat out on the back deck.

Nice big house close to the lake.

Four Morgan siblings had a mini reunion back in Southern MN, where our father grew up and we used to vacation every summer 50-60 years ago. Nice big house, close to, but not on, the lake (as the ad seemed to imply). But very happy with our stay. If and when we head back to MN in the future, I would look for this property again, and isn't that the bottom line? And don't worry, the game room does have pool cues, even though the ad says to bring your own. Recommended.

Great house for a family cabin weekend

Overall we loved the house and the area. The back porch was our favorite place to spend time, even in the rain! The game room was great for hanging out and despite the major flooding in the area, we were still able to get out on the lake and enjoy the kayaks. Greg was a fantastic host and was very responsive to my questions throughout the weekend. Our only complaint was that the living room and game room did not have sofa beds as was advertised in the listing so we had less beds than expected.

2023 Sibling Gathering

Ideal location in a smaller community with a Lake view and access. We brought a golf cart and could easily access the entire area and businesses. Our group of senior kids comes from Minnesota, Montana, and California and meet every year at a rental in one of those states. We believe this home was one of our best. The owner was very accommodating and quickly to respond to our inquiries. The home was so roomy and quiet.

Spacious and comfortable vacation home

We felt so badly for the folks dealing with flooding that started during our stay, and hope we contributed a bit to the local businesses. Greg worked with us the entire time. The vacation home was perfect for our family reunion with the many bedrooms and game room over the garage. We spent many hours there and playing board games in the spacious living room after cooking up several meals in the fully equipped kitchen. While we missed many outdoor opportunities--fishing, kayaks, park hikes--due to flooding, we had lots of quality family time. Thanks Greg, and best wishes for you and your family!

Kato guys

The property and house were very nice. Our only concerns are the downstairs bathroom toilet has issues with backing up without anyone doing anything other than a number one in it. Also, the cabinet above the refrigerator looks like it is going to detach itself from the wall? Everything else was as described and very clean.

Great stay

We had a great time at this home. We drove to a river to float down on tubes which lasted 5 hours. Beautiful day. Sunday a rainy day and played games and had a blast. The home easily accommodated 6 adults using 4 rooms with room to spare. The jacuzzi tub was a lovely benefit. Kitchen if fully stocked for dishes and needed items. The lake was green but that is common for smaller lakes when it’s a hot summer. We wanted to kayak but ran out of Sunny time. The Mexican restaurant in Waterville was delicious! The local bar food was equally original and good. It was perfect for what we wanted. Thank you!

Welcoming. We had a group of 9 and would have loved to have another couch or a lazy boy rocker/recliner and comfy chair. We had a 1 year old used to being rocked to sleep, so we moved one of the outdoor rockers into the house for bedtime. Our stay was not so much a vacation as a family reunion, so we spent most of our time and meals at my brother's house across the lake on North Shore Rd. We had to drive to his place to do a pontoon boat ride as water at the vrbo's dock was too shallow and he didn't want to risk tearing up bottom of his pontoon. Kitchen was fully stocked for cooking/serving food but we did not need anything other than coffee mugs and forks and spoons and one fry pan for our breakfast. The VRBO did have coffee, filters, sugar but we used our own coffee. Kitchen also appeared to be stocked with common spices for cooking. We did not get a chance to use game room above the garage, it did look inviting or the firepit area, again spent our days at my brother's home only came back to vrbo to sleep. Greg, the host, answered any questions we had by the end of the day. We were not familiar with this key lock but finally figured out how to lock up when we checked out. If you plan a larger group know seating is limited for dining indoors and watching TV. Note, arrive early to hit the grocery store, it closes at 5:00 p.m. We were about 45 minute drive to Mall of America, which was on the bucket list for half of our group who had never been there. We will return.
