Pros:
This home is beautiful, modern, and extremely clean.
Comfortable beds for everyone, lots of room upstairs (separate living area and upstairs deck)
Smart TVs in all rooms (we were able to watch our own Netflix and Hulu)
RIGHT on the lake, no steep stairs, dock for our boat was right there, didn't have to haul stuff across a huge area
Kitchen well-stocked, we made cookies, a cake, pancakes, etc and had all of the pans/pots and measuring cups we needed.
GREAT thrifting and restaurants in town. Super cute for walking/shopping.
Dogs allowed, we brought our goldendoodle and he was happy to sleep on the lovely patio
We had GREAT fishing luck on Lake Sisseton. We caught some fish we'd never even seen before!
Cons:
The lake was pretty green - not one I'd swim in. But that's normal for southern MN lakes. We WERE able to swim in one of the bigger lakes attached by channel, which was great.
The house is next door to the Marina restaurant (property owner owns both). The live music was fine (ended by 11:30 at night), but even with doors and windows closed, we heard talking (and yelling) and people saying good-bye and slamming doors into their cars in the parking lot (which butts up to the bedroom side of the property) each night. One of the nights was a wedding reception, which was understandably late (2am) and the owner was very apologetic and even provided us with lunch from the Marina. But even the non-reception nights were noisy. Just something to keep in mind if you're a lighter sleeper.
In addition to the late-night noise, there were also a lot of deliveries and/or garbage truck pick-ups in the mornings in that same parking lot.
Communication was good, although I did have to message the owner the night before our trip to ask how we should access the property. Owner was super helpful and responsive once we were in contact.
Upshot: it's an extremely modern and beautiful home. The property is well-maintained with a beautiful patio, lawn area, picnic tables, etc. The house location isn't perfect (right next to restaurant), but I think it's evened out by the fact that they do allow dogs (big plus for many families) and the town is so lovely. Wonderful lake for fishing, but maybe not the best for floating with a pool noodle and a beer. No, it's not a "secluded getaway," but we had a lovely weekend "in town." :) I would stay here again with a group who was up for daytime shopping and eating and some late nights staying up together.
