Magical Lake house, feel like being in the cabin in the heart of Minneapolis.

The cobblestone deck with the view of the gorgeous lake from outside and the windows of the house will have you fall in love with this cute and simple cabin like place.
Sunlight and scenery from every window shines into the house. Make a bonfire at night and enjoy the view on the deck.
You have lots of space on the ground floor and basement for a comfortable family gathering in any season. Paddle boat, paddleboards, and bicycles provided for the summer time lake and outdoors fun!There is a long trail just in a walking distance from the house. Lots of restaurant and shops close by.

Nice getaway
We needed a place big enough for 9 kids and 2 adults and this fit the bill perfectly. Owners were good at communicating throughout the whole process. Some of the doors rub on the frames and don't close properly and could use adjustment, but overall the house was very nice. Plenty of bedding and having 2 showers was very nice.

Great property! Was everything we needed. The lower level was perfect for my son and his family...like a mini apartment. So close to my daughter too! We will definitely be using this as home away from home on our next visit...Thanks!!

Great spot to gather for the holidays
Great experience overall- three bedrooms with two large beds and two twin beds along with pull out couch. Somewhat crowded for a family group of 12 but as long as you like your family, works great. Can't beat for the cost.

Home was perfect for our youth group traveling for a conference. Home had great amenities, great space for everyone, felt comfortable being in the home, the view of the lake was great. The home feels bigger inside than first impression from the outside, host was great!! 5 star, I highly recommend

Perfect place for a group get together.
We stay at a lot of short term rentals with business and vacation and this one is one of the best.
My wife, mom and dad, and my sister were in town to watch my granddaughter compete at USA Gymnastics event.
Kitchen had everything we needed and even some extras like coffee and condiments.
Lots of open space for family to visit, the downstairs is almost like a separate apartment. Extra mini kjitchen and gathering space.
But the thing that makes this place fantastic is the back porch gathering area.
Looking through the trees at the lake is amazing, but you are still in the middle of town.
We had a couple friends over one day for lunch, grilled out and spent the whole afternoon sitting outside relaxing.
If you have have kids there a rope swing and paddle boat to play in the lake. Saw a bever and lots of fish.
Uber to and from airport, the mall or stadium/convention space. Also door dash for groceries.
I only wish we had a reason to come back, would stay here again for sure.
The area felt very safe. The house was clean and there were utensils, spices, plates, pots and pans for our use. The only thing I would like to see different is a tv in the living room and bedrooms. Otherwise it was perfect!

Great experience at Lake View Home
We had an amazing stay at Azy's home. The home met our every need. We were a group of eight in town for our daughter's wedding. We hosted a family dinner on the eve of the wedding. Everyone had a great time. Communications with host were excellent. He made every attempt to offer items we needed. While not updated to latest standards, the home is clean and well-loved. We were pleasantly surprised to find a little kitchenette downstairs, as we didn't remember seeing that in the listing. It was very useful. It took us a bit to get in the habit of removing our shoes. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you Azy for making our visit so enjoyable! Sorry we misplaced the glass coffee urn but happy it was located!

Great stay!
I stayed with a group of friends over a weekend for a bachelorette party, and it was a great spot! Azy was so helpful even before our stay started - answering any questions i had while preparing for the weekend. The house itself was spacious, great for our group and clean. It was also well stocked for cooking. I'd definitely stay here again!
