MINNeSTAY* Creekside Lodge | Nature | Waterview

Welcome to Creekside Lodge!

Calling all Prince fans, bird lovers, and beach goers! Located just 9 minutes from Prince’s Paisley Palace, 10 mins from the Landscape Arboretum, and 15 minutes form Wayzata Beach, this beautiful home is all about location. What’s more, the inside will delight you! Nestled along the banks of Purgatory Creek, this 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home boasts a stunning open concept living room and kitchen and high vaulted ceilings elevate the elegant space.

You'll love cooking in this kitchen which features a dual oven, a high tech microwave, stainless steel appliances, and a large farmhouse sink that overlooks the creek. The kitchen island has four comfortable bar stools and ample space for cooking or serving dishes. Take a few steps down to the sunken living room and cozy up by the fireplace with a good book. And don’t forget to check out the vast DVD collection! Exit the sliding glass doors and find yourself just steps from Purgatory Creek. Grill up some steak on the deck or toast marshmallows over the firepit, all while enjoying the beautiful sounds of nature.

Just off the sunken living room is the main bathroom and a bedroom with a chic trundle bed, floor to ceiling mirrors, and a designated study space. Upstairs you will find three beautifully decorated bedrooms - 2 Queens and one King- as well as two bathrooms, fully stocked with Minnestay’s signature shampoo, conditioner and bodywash. Moreover, the King Master Ensuite boasts a stellar view of Purgatory Creek and a walk in closet.

Book your next vacation with Creekside Lodge - you'll want to come back!

Amazing Time!
Our grandma owns a house on Lake Redstone but is getting too old to host our entire family - myself, my husband, our 4 year old, 2 year old and my mother-in-law, so we rented this to stay during our visit. We were beyond happy with our experience. Not only is the location phenomenal, but it was very clean and had EVERYTHING you could want during your vacation. Trampoline, bounce house and TONS of toys to keep the kiddos occupied. BONUS - we rented their boat as well and had a blast! Would definitely recommend staying here, we hopefully will be again next summer!
