Midcentury Lake Home!
Great location with lots of space for several families!

Spring & Dock are back: HotTub, GameRoom, Jazzuci!
We loved the home! It was a beautiful place for me and my grown kids from different areas fly to and share a long weekend together. It was very spacious with lots of windows and beautiful views. Comfortable furniture, lots of great amenities. When we had a question, his response was super fast. The hot tub was clean and hot...the fireplace worked and was so lovely. We all agreed we'd love to come here next time! Highly recommend.

Stillwater Chalet
The Stillwater Chateau is an outstanding place to stay if you love nature, wildlife, peace and comfort. The surroundings are beautiful, and the house is very comfortable. It has everything you could possibly need including a well-stocked kitchen and extra toiletries. The set up is great for families coming together to share time together. Large, open floor plan with a stunning view of the lake and surrounding wooded area. You feel like you are in a secluded spot but are within minutes of major shopping. We would definitely come back to the Stillwater Chateau.

Maple Bay Getaway!
The property met our needs perfectly. The house was clean and easily accessible when we arrived. Fern and Daniel were extremely helpful and easy to work with. I highly recommended this property and would stay here again!

Spacious Home| Lake Minnetonka| Downtown Excelsior
We enjoyed our stay. It’s a good space for a larger group. While it’s in Excelsior, a very nice lake town, it’s not very walkable as it is sitting on a busy highway with no sidewalks.

Lakefront hideaway in the city
Colleen was a very helpful and gracious host. The accommodation was lovely with a lovely view. Would recommend!

House across Lake Como. 3 bedrooms & 3 bath
Very comfortable and clean with a beautiful view of Lake Como. Spacious and plenty of room for a larger group. Very well equipped kitchen and nice bedding and towels. Dao responded quickly when We had issues with thermostat.

Lake home: hot tub & pool table
Super clean, BEAUTIFUL place. We had a total of 8 people stay here, one being a toddler, and two dogs. This place was PERFECT for a family weekend. I would absolutely recommend this spot for anyone.

Boho-chic home by Lake Bde MakaSka; Fully stocked
Lovely stay with the family at the Boho Basement. Extremely clean and welcoming place to stay. Fantastic location and easily walkable to the lake and local establishments. Would stay here again.

Charming Uptown Home - A Walkers Paradise
We had a great stay at Nancy's place. It was the perfect base for our stay in Minneapolis. I particularly appreciated being so close to the lakes for daily walks, and Uptown is centrally located and has a variety of restaurants and grocery stores. The home was very comfortable and located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood.

Elegant Lake-View Charmer
Vicki’s place was absolutely lovely. We stayed for a family wedding and could not have asked for a nicer space of more helpful host. We were 3 couples and had all we needed and more. Vicki accommodated us in several ways, from early check in to quick response to a few questions we had. We’d stay again!

Cedar Lake Bungalow: Best of Lakes + City + Parks
I enjoyed every minute here! I’m from Minneapolis but was looking for a place to relax and easy access to nature. It’s the perfect staycation with miles of trails literally right outside front door. Gorgeous views of Cedar Lake from inside and an incredible kitchen to cook. Everything was quality, functional, clean and so beautiful. Hosts are very thoughtful and available next door, but it’s also private. Best airbnb I’ve ever stayed in!

Moore Lake Retreat - Walk 2 Beach&Park by LuxLife
This home has plenty of space, lots of amenities, and is in a great neighborhood with local parks. It’s easy to get to. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. We had a great stay!

Historical HomeTrendy Lakes Area- 3 Brd 1 &1/2 Bth
This is a great location with excellent neighborhood restaurants steps from the door. Having dedicated off street parking was wonderful. We enjoyed every minute of our Minneapolis spring break, and having this as a home base was perfect. Would definitely stay again.

Lake Life Meets City Vibes
Our stay was great, everything was super cozy and clean. I had a lot of work to prep for an event and a small space like this was very convenient which got a lot of my work done quicker! Also very nice & informative hosts!

Lake Harriet Gem | Vintage Charm + Modern Comfort
My stay at this Lake Harriet home was awesome. The space is big, has really great decorations and has a cool style while maintaining comfort. My favorite parts are the original wood details inside the house And the bedrooms with nice designs and super comfortable beds. I woke up early to explore the area and felt quite safe taking a short walk to lake Harriet and utilizing the easy walking paths around this quiet neighborhood. I was able to spot a couple nice coffee shops and grab some delicious breakfast at a nearby bakery. I also saw a few parks that I definitely will come back to explore on another trip. Oh and the host, Ben, was super responsive, thoughtful, and proactive to give me all the good tips and secret spots of the locals. He was quick to respond to my questions about the house and the neighborhood. The house was spotless, peaceful, and had a lot of amenities that were above and beyond the average rental. I will definitely be returning and bringing friends!

Colby Lake Place, On Colby Lake
My family needed a place to stay while our home was being renovated and we found William's place in Woodbury. We loved the location and layout of the home. Flexible check in as we were experiencing some difficulties with insurance but we were still able to get checked in same day.

The Shore House
Great place! Beautiful view! Easy to find! Very peaceful!

Peaceful tree top 2BR attic apartment walkout deck
Super cute place on a quiet street. Adorable sitting area on the deck. Lake with is 2 blocks away and has a very nice trail for waking or biking. Many restaurants and stores nearby. Beds were comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

Charming house steps away from Lake Minnetonka
Highly recommend staying here. Peaceful, calming, and everything you need to relax. Allson has truly thought of everything.

Lake Como Cabin
Jeff responded quickly when we needed more toilet paper - he had it delivered to our door within the hours. The kitchen is well supplied with cooking equipment, dishes and silverware - we had extra family members over for a meal and had plenty of items and places to sit. Loved this home - beautiful wall hangings, the beds were very comfortable, and easy access to the walking trail.

Comfy retreat, 3.9 mi to downtown MOA-M
Edith's place was fantastic! It comfortably accommodated our group of eight, with plenty of space for everyone to relax. The house itself was beautiful, and the surrounding area was lovely. It was also in a great location—just a short 10-minute drive to downtown Minneapolis. As a group of college students attending a conference, we were mindful of noise levels since that seemed to be an important consideration, but we had no issues. While there is just one shower, it wasn’t a problem for us—we just planned accordingly. Overall, we had a great stay, and I would definitely stay here again!

The Tranquil Nature Retreat at Ches Mar Homestead
It was TRANQUIL and I loved that it backs right up to Minnewashta Park that has many trails to hike down to the lake. The beds and linens were very comfortable and we slept well in the quiet solitude. There was plenty of space both indoors and outdoors for little ones to play. The outside propane grill worked well and we BBQed most our meals using it. It is well maintained with clean new carpets. We really appreciated that Sabrina was kind enough to supply some toys and play kitchen for the children. They loved the bunk beds and made forts with the extra blankets. Having a washer/dryer in unit is a big plus when you are staying more than a week, especially with little ones.

Upstairs Flat in Zealously Renovated Duplex
Everything was perfect - the space, the neighborhood, the amenities, the communication. Legitimately looking forward to staying again!
