Charming Spacious Cottage, Steps from Lake Pepin & Downtown!

Enjoy this exceptionally spacious cottage - just steps from Lake Pepin and downtown Lake City with a view of Lake Pepin from your backyard. The location is a short walk from the shops and restaurants of downtown Lake City and 'River Walk', a 3 mile walking path along Lake Pepin. Enjoy the backyard with a fire pit for bonfires and maybe roasting marshmellows!

Nearby summer activities include golfing (6 area golf courses), boating, fishing, water skiing, and sailing. Frontenac State Park and Hok-si-la City Park offer hiking opportunities and the National Eagle Center is just a short drive.

Winter activities include cross country skiing, snowmobiling, Winterfest celebration, and downhill skiing nearby at Coffee Mill, Wabasha or Welch Village, Red Wing. There are many shopping, dining, and antiquing experiences available in Lake City as well as in nearby towns.

Clean and well stocked
Great location. I love the patio in the backyard where we can sit and see the lake, plus grill and have a campfire. Plus there is a nice sitting porch in the front of the house to sit on a rainy day. This house gets an A+ for comfort and cleanliness.

Minnesota High School State Bass Fishing Championship
We booked the house for a participant and a boat captain, and the parents of the participant, for the Minnesota High School State Bass Tournament in Wabasha. This property worked perfect for our needs for this event. The house was the cleanest of any VRBO property I have ever stayed at. Nice quiet neighborhood with a short walk to Lake Pepin. Highly recommend this property to my friends and family!!

Great family getaway
We loved the cottage and will be back again. We loved how everything in town is in walking distance, and there are so many places to see angst things to do within 30 minutes. We were in town for a high School bass tournament. There is plenty of room for a boat and trailer, and external outlets on the garage to charge overnight.

Great little cottage to relax for the weekend. Clean and had the things we need. Nancy popped in today hi when we arrived and her number was in numerous places to get in touch with her if anything was needed. Great coffee shop across the street too.

Cozy Cottage
Great place to stay! It was snowing upon our arrival, so we appreciated the puzzles and games stocked in the house. The kitchen has a nice view of the lake, and the location is just a block from the marina. We especially liked the cute lake house decor, warm blankets, nice TVs, and dimmable overhead light fixtures. Highly recommend!
