Family Celebration

We celebrated our dad's 90th bday and this was the perfect location to do that. Loved the outside area, was able to have a few fires in the firepit and the kids loved taking the canoe out to do some fishing. Everyone agreed that we should do it again next year.

Verified traveler

Gorgeous wooded setting, beautiful lake view and plenty of room, inside & out for our active family.

This house worked out perfectly for our long weekend in Wayzata. We needed a home that would accommodate 3 couples and 4 young children (ages 1 to 8). The three queen size bedrooms and one room with 2 sets of bunks fit the bill, however we did need to bring along a pack and play for the one year old. The living spaces are quite modestly furnished, but it had everything we needed with plenty of room for all. The highlight of this house is the view from the living room. It is breathtaking. The kids had a blast exploring and playing in the outside areas. The location couldn’t have been better. It’s only minutes from Wayzata shopping and restaurant district, Lake Minnetonka, the beach and marina. We enjoyed our stay.

Lovely spacious home

This was a roomy home that worked perfectly for my three siblings, spouses, and children to use as a home base while in town for Christmas. They loved the view of the snowed-over lake!

Family Reunion

Great home location right on the lake. The house looks as if it’s undergoing some renovations but doesn’t take away from the beauty this property. We had 9 people stay and we entertained 19 for dinner and lively conversation. The neighbors are super nice and we shared many stories about their lovely dogs! We had camp fires each night and enjoyed a beautiful weekend. Kammay, our host, is amazing. She is very communicative and informative. Made our overall experience a joy. She answered all of our questions in a timely manner. Check-in & out was smooth and easy! I strongly recommend this property! You won’t be disappointed!!

Excellent Location and Home

The house is exactly as described and in pictures. The location is amazing and the home was perfect for our family. Kammy was very easy to work with and generously allowed us a late check out. We will definitely go back when in MN again visiting family.

Perfect Family House

Due to COVID, we needed to quickly move our son’s small wedding from MX to Minneapolis! This house was the perfect spot for half of the family attending the wedding. It was a great gathering spot, family friendly, minutes from everything we needed, but with the feeling of a remote northern cabin. The owner could not have been more responsive and cooperative with any question or request I had. Overall, a wonderful experience.

Basic and comfortable

We filled the house with three generations and it worked perfectly for us. If you’re looking for luxury, this is not the place, but if you need a basic uncluttered, baby friendly environment with plenty of space , comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen, And a view to die for, you have come to the right place. May was very helpful, check in was easy and she was available for all questions. Great location near WayZata. We even used the kayaks to paddle on Gleason Lake.

Nice functional place to stay

We were out and about most of our stay. The view of the lake was outstanding and the home and furnishings were fine (nothing extraordinary but certainly good enough). Owner was extremely responsive with the small questions we had. Nice canoeing on the lake. Kitchen well stocked with appliances and tools. Very convenient to downtown Wayzata and shopping. Easily slept out family of 5 and could have held more.
