Great family vacation location

This was a great place for all ages. We loved the movie room. Very clean and well maintained. The ability to rent the owner’s pontoon boat was a huge plus for us. Plenty of space for 9 of us to be together bit also have some privacy.

Beautiful Lakeside Getaway!

Susan’s VRBO is a wonderful getaway to host a group. We enjoyed every amenity - the multiple outdoor spaces by the lake, movie room, table games, and a variety of living spaces to gather and catch up with friends. Thank you for sharing your VRBO with us!

Weekend At the Lake

We had a great experience while at Cedar Escape. The cabin was spacious and very nice. Having the grill, fire pit, and garage spaces were all huge advantages over some other places I’ve stayed. And they movie room was just the cherry on top. Great views of the lake with easy access. The neighbors were friendly and it was very easy to get to from the interstate. Would definitely come back!

The perfect peaceful lake house

Susan’s lake house was the perfect, peaceful spot for our family to relax. It has everything that anyone could ask for. Plus the use of the super comfy pontoon was the cherrie on top. We could not have asked for a better week or lake house to stay in. We hope to be back in the near future!

We had a great time getting family together at this cabin. So much room for activities and games. Movie theater was a big hit with the little ones. The lake was gorgeous. I only wish we could have stayed a bit longer. Maybe next time!!

Game haven at the lake

This was a great place for our family who likes to play lots of games. The bedrooms were arranged well to give us lots of space. Since the lake was rather overgrown, we spent more time inside playing games and made full use of the game room every day. We also loved taking the kayaks out in the early morning to look for wildlife. The kids also appreciated having the beach and playground so close-by.

Great family getaway

The property was clean and fit our family of 15. The walls are very soundproof and were a bonus with a couple of little children with us. The beds were log style and quiet getting in and out of the bunk bunks. You could go to bed early without disturbance. It's a way up to the second level living quarters but was worth the trips up and down for water fun. It was a great 5 nights and four days with family in a quiet, clean home.

Amazing Place

The place is amazing! The kids loved making s’mores in one of the fire places and they loved watching movies in the movie theater curled up in a blanket. One thing that we noticed right when walking in was the smell of cigarette smoke. There were cigarette butts on the outside deck and an ashtray filled with cigarettes outside as well. We eventually got used to the smell.

Wow!

Amazing time. We were in from Seattle for a wedding. We wanted a space where our families could spread out and enjoy each other’ company. It was fantastic!.The theater was an amazing space for the baby. He needed a dark room to sleep soundly and the theater room was perfect for that. It also was a great private space to nurse. The property was perfect for our crew and the caretaker super helpful! Well stocked and a ton of fun! Thanks so much.

Outstanding Cabin

We celebrated Christmas and our 50th wedding anniversary at Susan's lake home. It was perfect. The layout gave us lots of room with 8 adults and 4 grandchildren. The game room and movie theater room were huge hits! The beds were all very comfortable and the view magical on a winter's night. All in all, the entire family would use one word to describe this property... PERFECT!

40th in Annandale

We celebrated our 40th going to a lake house in Minnesota. Communication with the owner was by far the best I've had. She's very accessible and replies quickly. House has everything you need to have a great time - games (indoor and outdoor), bbq and movie room. Pontoon boat is worth the rental fee. Lake is beautiful. You get the 2nd floor of the house and it's gigantic. The owner is on the premises (1st floor) but you never see them (and they make sure you always have plenty of fire starter) for the pits).
