Insanely beautiful!
This property is absolutely perfect. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need and a grocery store is within an 8min drive. There is plenty of seating in the main space including outside, and the layout of the bedrooms offers a nice separation. We found the bath mat in the hall bathroom was a bit slippery so we just took extra caution getting in/out of the shower. The location being away from the main highway is really great and quiet. We enjoyed the casino (7min south) and Mike recommended us The Green Lantern Bar & Grill for prime rib which turned out to be a wonderful recommendation. We loved it! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning again.

We could not have asked for more to get away for a long weekend of ice fishing and enjoying the outdoors. The property is perfectly placed for fish access and to restaurants etc. It was fully stocked with all we needed and a beautiful property. We are already planning our next visit!

Memorable Family Trip!
This property is INCREDIBLE! It has one of the best lake views I've seen, beautiful inside and out, very clean and organized, and has everything we needed and more! The cabin is fully stocked in the kitchen, bath, and even has toys and high chair/pack n play for baby! The loft upstairs was the perfect place for us to sleep with kids while the grownups/other guests were in their private rooms downstairs. The furniture is so comfortable. I absolutely loved sitting in the reclining rocking sofa chair, drinking my coffee, looking out on the sunrise. Gorgeous! I would highly recommend this spacious and FUN cabin stay to anyone!

A wonderful place to stay
My family and I spent a weekend at this wonderful cabin and would give it the highest recommendation. The locationis perfect with water front and docks on both the front and back, perfect for fishing. There were great views from the large windows inside the cabin. Lots of options for outdoor seating in the front and back and also toys for the kids to play with (inside and out)- thats a plus! The cabin was very clean and well decorated. Communication was easy and responses were almost immediate. Dont pass this place up!

Family Getaway
Our family had a great stay at Lake Mille Lacs at this dream house! It was perfect for the 4 couples we had at the cabin, with ample shared and personal space. We loved using the fire pit at night, the grill for dinners, and the water toys (kayaks and a pedal boat) provided a fun water experience. The large kitchen made meal time a breeze, and accessible laundry was a great perk. This was our family’s favorite rental so far across several years of family trips!

Great home with everything you could want.
We loved our stay here. Right from the get-go, Mike was very accommodating, and let us know he was available if we needed anything. The house was very clean and had plenty of room for our group of seven adults and two children. The house was equipped with everything we needed, including kayaks, and multiple outdoor and indoor games. If you are an early riser, the sunrise can’t be beat. We loved this home, and I’m sure any others who get the opportunity to stay here, will too.

Love this cabin! Bringing my siblings together is tricky because we have kids and need something that keeps everyone busy and entertained. Two Shores made it easy for us to bring a pontoon and jet ski while also supplying a Lilly pad and tube for the little swimmers. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again!

An Angler's true Ice Castle!
I booked this listing to celebrate my birthday with a small group (Party of 6, 3 couples) it was very spacious and cozy for all of us. Being that my group were also anglers, the space is perfect for us as we utilized the laundry room as a mud room to make sure we didnt track any boot prints into the home. This space was also perfect for loading and unloading gear straight into the washer/dryer! Being an angler, it was also great to be able to head back home after a day of fishing to shower with a seemingly endless supply of hot water (something ice anglers know is such a bonus). We had a great path, out to Mille Lacs, with a hill that allowed us access to some of the rocky flats, which was about a half a mile walk from the listing. (A great access, if anyone has their own snowmobile) The place is spacious, has a huge array of amenities (Kitchen appliances, Streaming services such as Netflix, Disney Plus etc, hot water and a strong septic system) and its those little things that go a long way! I had a great stay, Mike kept in touch, and the check in and check out process was super easy!

HEAVEN. EASY. COMING AGAIN!
Being from the West Coast, this was our first time vacationing in MN. This home couldn't not have been any more perfect for our group of adults, though it would also be most ideal for a family. The home is so nicely appointed; there wasn't one thing that we needed that wasn't already somewhere in this gorgeous, warm & inviting home. The open concept layout of the home made for nice interaction while cooking in the awesome kitchen or playing games in the dining area, & living room. We especially enjoyed the outdoor patio and sunsets on the dock (the lake temp is really pleasant). The check-in process was super easy (we arrived after dark) and the property mgmt group was a delight to work with and on top of things. Yep, we'll be back for sure!

Wonderful place. Lots of room. Breathtaking sunrises!
This was a great space for us (2 families of 4). The open living room/kitchen/dining area was wonderful for all of us to gather in. The outside area (in August) was great for relaxing and hanging up hammocks. Kids took advantage of the 2 kayaks in the garage. Bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The place was very clean when we arrived. Mike, the property manager, was very helpful. He reached out to us before check-in and answered questions promptly. The evening before departing I reached out to Mike to see if a later checkout was possible. He was able to accommodate our request. The sunrises are spectacular. I want to go back!

Great view and house layout - unpleasant exit
We had a wonderful time visiting Minnesota and catching up with family who live there. The home was amazing and the layout was perfect for us, we were all very sad to leave. The dishwasher really didn’t clean the dishes so we had to hand washed most of them, which was time consuming. Communication with the property manager was great at the start, he was very kind and with our flight landing early in the morning, was flexible with letting us come earlier if needed- however with picking family up and traveling we didn’t make it to the property till after the listed “check in” time. The only other negative thing was the property manager texted early in the morning on the day of check out stating they had 5 turn overs that day and were coming right after we leave at 10am; which as a guest, doesn’t make us feel very welcome and more like we are just a paycheck, it isn’t our issue that things may have been overbooked. With that said, the property manager and cleaning crew showed up BEFORE the 10 am “checkout” time and watched as we were packing the last few items in the car and were trying to say our goodbyes to family we don’t see often. We felt incredibly rushed, and thought this was a bit rude and really didn’t leave a great impression for us. While the house and lake view was amazing, the exit was unpleasant and we can’t say that we will be booking again because of that.
