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!

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.

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.

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 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!

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.

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".

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!

We had a nice stay at Connie’s property. Plus: - truly lakefront and plenty of space for family to gather -Connie was very responsive and quickly got back to us about any questions -the house was clean and orderly Minus: -on a fairly busy road, and just something to be weary of - the home has a good stock of kitchen utinsels, but limited other household amenities (no salt or pepper, no paper towel, no kitchen spray). This is all fully and fairly disclosed in the listing, but something to keep in mind!

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.
