Ski-in/Ski-out vacation rentals in Minnesota

Diane let us get unloaded and moved in. Then she stopped over to see if there was anything else we needed. She also texted the following day to see if we needed anything. We even invited her in for a beer. On check out day we had an person that ended up in the emergency room. Diane said we could postpone check out if it helped us out. She was very nice and helpful.. We will be coming back again! Both Diane and the place were wonderful.

Beautiful home. Clean. Homey. Highly recommend and will always keep in mind when traveling back there to go to mall of America. Airport and mall so close. Restaurants close by. 24hr grocery store close by. It was super ideal.

We enjoyed our stay and especially enjoyed the welcome pack of treats and the nice note welcoming us on our arrival. Adding a clothes dryer would be a nice extra touch for the future.

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!

We had a great family getaway at Janell’s place. Everything we needed was there. The place was spotless. Rooms were spacious and beds were really comfortable.

This was a very clean and welcoming house, perfect for our girls weekend. There was plenty of room for 10 of us. We loved the view of the lake, watching ducks and even an otter. Excellent flexibility when needing to change the number of guests and great communication. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Our family really enjoyed our stayed. My teenagers that are hard to please asked to come back. The basketball court was the cherry on top. They were there all day and night. The home is very spacious, clean and has everything you need to feel at home. It’s conveniently located close to the highway and by a great Mexican restaurant. Can’t wait to visit again!

The place was perfect. It had everything we needed and then some. Also, it is incredibly close to one of the alpine ski lofts for Giants Ridge (literally right across the street). We will definitely stay again!

Phoebes place was adorable. I can’t wait to go back! There are steep hills to fire pit area and the trail to the tiki hit where kayaks are stored is a short hike so maybe not appropriate for people with disabilities or small children. But perfect for our group of 6 adults. We absolutely loved the set up and the clean clear lake .

Jereme, was so helpful with all aspects of our 4 night stay at this Beautiful spot near the Poplar River. Skiing out was a breeze and we had enough snow to ski all the way back as well. The kids enjoyed the hot tub and pool at Caribou and everyone enjoyed this wonderful skiing experience. Great host and great spot at Lutsen Mountains!

Buckhorn is beautiful. This was our second time staying and we had a great time, as we hoped! We will absolutely be coming back regularly as a family!!! thanks Peg!

My stay with Diane was amazing, it was such a warm and inviting home. The house so clean and tidy, but also had beautiful art and decor. Diane was a wonderful and gracious host, would definitely recommend to any air bnb travelers.

Very peaceful lakeside retreat. We were the only guests present and enjoyed the solitude. The cabin was cozy with complimentary firewood for the firepit outside and a propane grill. We especially liked the sheltered porch during autumn rains and the fact that the cabin was out of the wind. Bath house was comfortably heated with hot showers despite the late season. Lots of little details, like a boardwalk over the Bog, made exploring fun. Heater quickly warmed the cabin and could be turned off for long periods. Good selection of books. My dog loved it since nobody else was around and she could explore also. If there'd been other guests, she would have been on a lead. Very happy we came in the off season! Close to 3 state parks so I could whittle down my passport book and make my mother hobble across the Mississippi for her birthday :)

Had a great time at the location. Host was quick to respond any questions or worries we had.

Very close to Giants Ridge activities and appointed with what we needed. Shawn was a friendly and accommodating host!

very peaceful get away from the pressures of daily living for our daughter who has a stressful management job. I was the perfect place to enjoy the lake by the fire pit enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Lore’s cabin was lovely- it felt like visiting the home of a friend who has great taste. While perhaps a little tight for 10-11 adults, it would be perfectly suited for a large group with kids. All in all it was absolutely perfect for our needs- of particular excitement for our group were the ski trails you could access from the driveway and the stellar selection of books. Thank you for letting us and others stay at your beautiful home!

My partner and I had an amazing weekend at this secluded getaway—it was peaceful, cozy, and the perfect escape from daily life. The cabin was well-equipped, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the serene surroundings. We loved unwinding, playing games in and listening to the sounds of the rain. The location felt remote yet had what we needed, and we’re already planning to return in warmer weather to take full advantage of the outdoor activities. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a quiet, refreshing retreat!

Enjoyed our stay. This home is beautiful and exceeded my expectations. Love the lake views.

I was very impressed with my stay at Hockett Hollow. It was very nice and clean. Everything was easy to access. I was on a long work trip, and was able to do my laundry at the airbnb, which was very handy.

We had a wonderful stay at The Hideaway! We drove up from Mississippi for a white Christmas and spent most of our time ice skating on the lake, reading, and playing board games. The cabin was cozy and had everything we needed for a relaxing family vacation: books, games, puzzles, the lake, even extra dog bags for clean up. My oldest went ice fishing a few times. As an amateur baker, I loved that the kitchen had things like bread pans, a pastry blender, a dough scraper, etc. It made the Christmas and New Year’s baking of delicious breads and desserts much easier. Highly recommend and considering another stay this summer!

If you're looking for the "perfect" resort with no imperfections...this is NOT the place for you. But...if you're looking for someplace that has just the right balance of low key summer camp meets comfy creature comfort filled cabins that have a BEAUTIFUL view of Lake Augusta...then this IS the place. Max's cabin was perfect for us ( my husband and I) along with two dogs, crates and gear. Loved the loft sleeping space, and the bed on the main level looks directly out onto the lake. You can't beat it. And clean...SO clean! Felt like we were the first guests. Oh...I did not think to bring a hair dryer...because really do you need it at "camp." but some extras like that may not be included so be sure to take a full list of the amenities. Oh! We hit Octoberfest at the local Spilled Grain Brewery! Tons on Tap! And the Tin Roof Candle Company in town also my favorite!! All locally poured! Would 100% recommend all of the above!

Landy's place was a quaint, and rustic cabin in the gorgeous and pristine setting of the Northwoods. We loved waking up to the fog rising from the Lake, and having our morning coffee by the water. Described as expected, with no electricity or running water we packed as if we were tent camping and we felt prepared for our stay. Our family stayed up late by the light of kerosene lamps playing cards. It was a great bonding experience and a welcome get away from wifi and technology. The boat rental was a plus, and locals were very friendly and welcoming to us.
