Private Queen 1 BR Apartment in 4 BR Lakeside Home

DebbieRating, 5 stars3 days ago
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.

We had a small family reunion at David & Johnathan’s place and I’ve gotta say it was absolutely the perfect place. So much space! The photos don’t communicate how much room there is. The kids had so much fun and us adults were able to enjoy ourselves. It had everything we needed and was super accommodating. We will absolutely use this place again in the future. Thanks D & J!

Walk To Falls | Close To Everything | Fenced Back

CatherineRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Andrew's place was exactly as described! Easy to find. Easy to get in. Very clean. Tastefully decorated. Comfy bed. Nice towels. Good water pressure in shower. Easy pull down blinds to make it dark for sleeping. Easy to set thermostat. Comfy sofa and chair. Sidewalk on both sides of street. Very quiet, safe neighborhood. Snowed while we were there and somebody shoveled the front walk, which was wonderful. We always found a parking spot right out front, but alley access and parking were convenient too. Good access to where we wanted to go and what we wanted to do in Minneapolis/St. Paul. Easy directions for check-out.

Bright And Warm Cabin Overlooking Shagawa Lake

JenRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Most immaculate place I’ve ever stayed. Spotless. There were 5+ deer directly out the windows during our entire stay. What a bonus! Coffee pot. Not a Keurig. Bring your own grounds. Kitchen is super stocked for cooking and eating. Some spices in cupboards. This place is SO private. No one around as far as the eye can see. Shagawa Lake is slightly visible from the upstairs, mostly if you’re sitting up in bed. Mattress is super, ultra soft. Not my style, but maybe someone else’s. Comfortably accommodates 2 people. 4 would be pushing it. No lock on bathroom door. We watched the sunrises and the sunsets. We enjoyed our stay immensely and hope to return soon.

Rustic Log Cabins on BWCA Wilderness Lake!

CoreyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This is a wonderful off grid get away. We did a winter trip and pulled sleds with skis. Brought in water, coffee, and food. Made fires in the stoves for heat, and had a couple great saunas with cold plunges in the lake. Everything required work which is what my group was looking for. Wood to split, fires to feed, and lanterns to see at night. Close enough to ski back to the car and head to Ely anytime we wanted. Would recommend for unplugging from the busy world. Still had cell service if needed, but we stayed on airplane mode for the most part.

Nature Cabin | Cuyuna Matata

GuyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Stayed here with Spouse, 6yo child and Standard Poodle. This place is GREAT. Plenty of separation from the other cabins for the dog to run, and over 1/2 mile from road so there was little to none road noise. The view from the cabin looks to a sunrise over the river, and the wood stove is so soothing and creates that warm cozy atmosphere. The sauna was my favorite feature and I used it every day, doing repetitions from sauna to laying in the fresh snow. Obviously this used towels and the onsite washer and dryer allowed us to have fresh towels every day. Its an easy 11 min drive into Crosby where we could enjoy the restaurants and shops, even bringing back ice cream from Victual to enjoy at the cabin. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and would gladly make this an annual winter vacation for our family!

London Crossing Cabin

JessRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had the best time at Brian and Jessica’s cabin! I booked it very last minute, after my previous plans had fallen through. We had one small issue with the water, and Brian was on top of it immediately! By the time we got home from breakfast at Betty’s Pies, it was resolved. The space is perfect, the privacy is just what we wanted, and that fireplace. Wow. I sat in the very comfortable recliner, staring at the fire, and reading, for hours. The place is very dog friendly. It is right off of the gravel road, where people drive fast, so if your dog is a runner just be sure to keep an eye on them.

Your guide to Minnesota

Welcome to Minnesota

Minnesota takes its name from the Dakota word for water, and the state has plenty of it. Its nickname, Land of 10,000 Lakes, is a conservative count: The best-known of the 14,000-plus bodies of water may be the border-crossing Lake of the Woods, the vast expanse of Lake Superior, and Lake Itasca, best known as the source of the Mississippi River. Facing off across that same river, Minnesota's largest city and its state capital, Minneapolis and St. Paul, come together as the Twin Cities. Here, you'll find fervid sports fans, a beloved craft beer scene, an artists’ community, and the enormous, tax-free shopping paradise of the Mall of America. Despite the reputation for frigid winters in the Upper Midwest, nothing in Minnesota slows down for the snow or ice. When the weather obliges, people flock to skating rinks, ski runs, snowshoe trails, and ice-fishing spots. In summer, the state’s parks fill up with bikers, hikers, and campers, while the boaters, swimmers, and water skiers head to Minnesota’s many waterways.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Minnesota

All four seasons come on strong in Minnesota, but don't let the incredibly chilly winter keep you away. The icy northern climate brings out the state's best, in the form of bare-chested football fans cheering in subfreezing temperatures, snowy wonderlands for outdoor recreation, and cozying up in one of the state’s numerous cabin rentals. Spring and fall temperatures vary greatly as the weather shifts from extreme cold to extreme heat. While summers in Minnesota can be excessively warm, they also open up a world of outdoor activities, including boating of all types on its rivers and lakes. Summer also ushers in the king of all statewide events: the Minnesota State Fair.


Top things to do in Minnesota

Minnesota State Fair

For two weeks near the end of August, the Twin Cities hosts one of the largest — and arguably the best — state fairs in America. More than 2 million people a year attend the celebration of the state's agriculture, arts, and industry, where they stuff themselves on classic fried fair food, ride the rides, and admire farm animals and equipment.

Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness

Stretching along Minnesota’s northern border, this 19,000-acre park includes 1,500 miles of canoe routes and 2,000 campsites. Novice and expert boaters alike flock to the area for paddle-powered adventures, and the occasional chance to see the Northern Lights.

Twin Cities Arts Scene

With two major art museums — the Minneapolis Institute of Art and the Walker Art Center — plus lots of smaller ones, the Twin Cities offer plenty to look at. Add to that a thriving theater scene and the Paisley Park compound, a living shrine to the late local legend and global pop star.
