Perfect Spot for Our Family Get-together!
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!

Charming lake home with lots of space
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.

Vacation memories
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.

Great spot for our family reunion
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.

Fun time on Spring Lake
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.

Graduation celebration
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.

Comfortable home on Spring 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.

Spring Lake House
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.

Wedding Weekend
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 Lake House for Families
We loved this rental. It’s in a great area with beautiful lake views. We had 3 families stay and we all more then enough room. My kids loved swimming in the lake, I do recommend water shoes. Connie was a wonderful host and was quick to reply to a minor issue we had. The house is in a great location in MN makes it easy to get places. We tried the restaurant on Prior Lake and it was delicious. I would definitely stay here again.

This home/property was perfect for our family gathering. We enjoyed the park across the street, the lake and being close to restaurants/shopping. It was very convenient. The house was great with 3 levels and 3 bathrooms; plenty of room for everyone. We also rented a pontoon with Connie's help and that made for even more fun with rides and fishing for all! We would definitely recommend this home!

Accurately described in listing. Lots of space and sufficient kitchen amenities. Also close to activities but not in a busy neighborhood. We enjoyed the Edelweiss Bakery and downtown Prior Lake. We were not able to use the kayaks due to inclement weather but enjoyed the view from the dock. The host was responsive to our questions. Overall a nice rental, and we enjoyed our stay.

Lake Vacation
This A frame on Spring Lake was perfect for our family. It’s 3 floors let us all have a bit of privacy while the main floor was perfect for eating and just “hanging”. The kitchen had everything we needed for making meals. The deck was a great place to watch those who canoed and paddleboarded. We took several walks on the nearby path, spent time at the horse track and enjoyed a tour of Paisley Park. We also were lucky to have perfect weather! It was just the right place for us.

Spring Lake A-Frame
Our family of 12 met at this lovely home and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is more spacious than we anticipated and the property was well-maintained. We enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen as well as outside on the charcoal grill. The deck is great for lounging and visiting. The home is well situated for easy access to the Twin Cities as well as to the airport. As we were departing, my college-age daughter remarked, "we should definitely come back here again".

Peaceful lake setting
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!

Excellent place!
The place was fantastic! The house was clean and ready to go. Just as advertised. Connie was very responsive (before and during the trip). It was Really nice that the house had a pack and play and a high chair. Not super baby proof, but never claimed to be. I just simply moved decor out of reach! The playground is directly across the street, which the kids loved. Thanks for the great stay!

This contemporary A-Frame cabin is right on the water and has the charm and accessibility to whatever you need. Nestled just southwest of the Twin Cities you have shopping and fishing experiences galore. Connie, the contact, was very personable and great to work with! Clean truly as presented.
