The Boat House
We were very happy with the accommodations! The smores kit, sparklers, sunscreen, bug spray, fire wood, extra propane and so much were so helpful! It was a beautiful place and we could have sat outside all day and night long!

Private Queen 1 BR Apartment in 4 BR Lakeside Home
Steven's place on the Lake is a hidden gem in a suburb of Minneapolis. The yards in the neighborhood are all 1 acres and on a dead end street which provided extra privacy. Even tough he lives upstairs I never really heard him. We really enjoyed all of the water foul! There are 2 beautiful swans,geese,ducks and sea gulls The patio has a table and a rocking bench. There is a dock that can be accessed by walking down stairs. Steven has literally though of everything you might need for your stay from spices to toiletries to charging ports. Communication was perfect. The shower has great water pressure and the kitchen area doubles as the laundry room. I felt like I was back in the 50s as far as how the decor goes. Keep your eyes open for lots of cool things! The only down side is a musty smell that is most noticeable upon entering.

Enjoy Lake Living - 20 Mins from the Twin Cities
Had a nice time. Wish we had more time to explore. We were there for work reasons so left before 6am and came home after 9pm. Seemed like a nice place to stay and chill. The shops were only a few mins down the road which was nice.

Long Lake Retreat
The location was beautifully set on a lake. It was nice being on the end of a row of cabins and homes so that we didn’t feel like we were being disruptive of other guests in the area. The lake view was awesome. The house was very nicely updated with great finishes. Bedrooms were small and packed with beds but the quality of the bunks made up for the tightness.

Vacation with Staycation Vibes
Great find! Was the perfect spot for what we were looking for. Thank you!

A-Frame of Mind on Blue Lake with pontoon for rent
We had the most magical stay at this home! The house itself was absolutely stunning—beautifully decorated, cozy, and everything we could have hoped for to make our holiday perfect. The hosts went above and beyond to make it feel like Christmas. They even left personalized stockings for our kids filled with thoughtful little gifts, which absolutely delighted them! It was such a heartwarming and unexpected touch that made our stay truly special. Thank you for helping us create unforgettable memories. We can’t wait to come back!

Cedar Lodge on Spectacle Lake
This house was wonderful! Everything was just as described in the listing. We needed a house that could easily accomodate our family and this home met all our needs. Our daughter got married at Pinewood so we stayed 4 nights and really felt at home. It was wonderful to have four bathrooms! The family room/dining/kitchen area is especially lovely with its big stone fireplace and huge windows that look out on the lake. The kitchen was fully stocked with dinnerware and pretty much everything we needed. This would be a great rental for family or extended family during the summer with its large back deck and access to the lake right behind the house. The drive into Cambridge isn't too bad...probably 10-15 min. from the house. We got groceries at Walmart there and there is also Target. Food at the Leader restaurant is fabulous. The house is well stocked with games and movies and there is a TV on both levels and family rooms on both levels! We couldn't have picked a better place.

Lake Retreat | Hot Tub |Pool Table | Peaceful| Fun
The lake view was BEAUTIFUL & WONDERFUL & VERY RELAXING. SO many opportunities within the house itself: large size kitchen, plenty of spaces to sit & eat, play room for if you have kids, a pool room & a hot tub!! A wonderful place for the 4 of us freshman college roommates to connect once again, as we all turned 75 this year!! We have connected 5 times in the past 15 years to reminisce. This provided far more space than we needed, but it was wonderful for each of us to have our own bedroom. Thanks again! We recommend this place to anyone!

Lakefront Charm: Your Cozy Studio Escape!
Great spot right on the lake! Lucie was an absolute sweetheart. She baked us cookies and it looks like she bought an iron just for us because we requested one. The place is really cute and cozy and we felt so comfortable. We enjoyed drinking our coffee and catching the most beautiful sunrise over the lake this morning. Would love to come back in the summertime to utilize the lake.

Serendipity Escape - Relax and enjoy nature!
So pleased with our visit! Appreciated your welcomed our relatives that visited.

Cozy Private Lakefront Retreat
I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The one-bedroom space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The shower was excellent, with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The neighborhood felt very safe, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Communication with the host was smooth, and they were very accommodating. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and secure place to stay by the historic lake.

Garden Level @ The Lake Hideaway, downtown WBL
We loved staying here. The beds were comfortable and it had everything you could possibly need. Would definitely stay again

Balsam Bird Nest on Balsam Lake
Cute, lil place to stay. We were impressed by the cleanliness and the space. We would definitely stay here again.

Private upper unit (Apt B) near Beaver Lake
I was on the road for 23 hours before finally arriving at Tina’s. It was my first time to Minnesota and I am very glad that I chose her place for my family and I. It was peaceful, clean, quiet and very homely. We slept so soundly. It felt as though I hadn’t left home in how at peace we were. Tina responded to any queries I had promptly. I was clean, the kitchen is well equipped, and the bathroom is very clean. The only downside for me was that I didn’t book her place for a longer time. I am definitely going back for a longer visit. If you’re still reading this please book already before someone else takes your dates. You won’t regret it one bit! 😀

Cedar Lake Beach - Klimt Country Romance
Allison's place is magical! We stayed for a couple of months just after moving to Minneapolis, during our housing search. Her space is quaint and cozy, exactly like the pictures, and the building is true to its original character in its decor as well. Allison was a fabulous host -- she stocked the apartment well with fruit, coffee, and snacks for our arrival, and in general, we felt we always had what we needed during our stay -- a variety of cookware, cleaning supplies, additional linens, etc. We had no issues at all except for a minor plumbing one, and Allison had it resolved within a couple of hours. We loved the location - it is across the street from a beach, which seemed like a well-used, vibrant community spot. We spent time on the beach while it was swimming weather, and walked along the paths around it almost every day with our dogs. It was especially picturesque as the trees changed color and weather cooled. We loved our stay here and would gladly stay again!

Treetop guest apartment by the lake
The location was great. We like being by the lakes and had stayed in the Linden Hills area before. Kevin’s place is just a block from the Bde Maka Ska so there are lots of places to walk or ride your bike. There is on street parking right outside the front door. Kevin and Sue were exceptionally hospitable and went out of their way to make our stay more enjoyable. The apartment was immaculate, quiet and dark at night. The walk in shower was great. The kitchen was well equipped, although we did not use it, choosing to go out to some excellent nearby restaurants instead.

Carriage house with private garden
Laura is such a thoughtful and gracious host! The carriage house is absolutely charming - bright, spacious, peaceful, and private. I felt extremely safe and comfortable throughout my stay. A perfect cozy winter weekend hideaway!

Koselig Cottage on Medicine Lake
This cottage is very cute, well stocked, and clean. It has a great sunroom and fun game room. It overlooks the lake and is super close to the Luce Line walking/biking path. Worked great for our family for an Easter get-together. Nice fenced in yard for kids and dogs. Would rent again!

Cozy Downtown WBL Cottage one block away from lake
This was my second stay with Sheri. The cozy cottage is great. I stayed there alone but had family visiting every day and occasionally someone would stay overnight upstairs. The kitchen is well equipped for home cooked meals. The furnishings are comfortable. The location provides easy access to the lake, walking trails, and the amenities of downtown White Bear.

Little House by Lake Phalen
This is the second time I reserved this charming little house for visiting relatives. They absolutely loved it. Kim thoughtfully provided all the special amenities to make them feel right at home.

Cozy 3Bd2Bth Cabin at the Lake: Pines That Whisper
Enjoyed the welcoming by hosts, coziness, peaceful and private location near Half Moon lake. Beautiful sunsets, night sky, and nearby hiking trails we explored. Provides necessary amenities for a very enjoyable stay! Look forward to booking again.

Charming Cabin Overlooking Rush Lake
Nice for a cabin getaway! Very responsive and accommodating host. It is an updated home great for all seasons that is both kid and dog friendly, would recommend.

Charming Linden Hills cottage by Lake Harriet
Katie and Curt were wonderful hosts to our Minneapolis Spring Break adventure! We loved having a home base at such a convenient, beautiful, central location. Our kids enjoyed the hot tub and the nearby playground. We enjoyed the neighborhood and walking into Linden Hills for meals and shopping. Katie & Curt were responsive to questions that came up during our stay and were friendly and gracious hosts.

Terryll Bayside Lake Home | Dock, Kayaks, Firepit!
Jordan's place was wonderful. Resting on a quiet bay of the lake it was hard to realize one was even in town. Our group was very impressed with the location, quality, attention to detail and wonderful gathering areas the property offers. Would easily reserve again. l personally loved sitting in the gazebo during a beautiful rain.
