The house was exactly what you expect after viewing the listing. Everything was clean and ready to go for us! The home was very nice and perfect for a quick weekend getaway!
Lovely, beautiful, clean/tidy/neat, well appointed, comfortable, cozy, fantastic lakeside view, Great walking/biking trail around the lake...easy parking... truly an, "Oasis"...will definitely book again
Spent 3 days at this beautiful place. Only 3 min to our daughters house. Perfect place for a couples getaway. Relaxing sitting in the back yard looking at the lake. The only thing it needs is a balcony or stairs from the back sliding door down to the back yard. We enjoyed our stay very cozy.
Feels like home. After spending busy days at Mayo Clinic, this was a calm, quiet, relaxing retreat to recharge for the next day.Sitting by the lake and feeding the ducks and geese just calms a person.And the fresh roses and lily were icing on the cale
All accommodations were well thought! I appreciated how accessible it was to the grocery store (strip mall). We thoroughly enjoyed the beauty of White Water State Park. Even if you are not gluten free, we highly recommend the restaurant Twiggs. They have a separate kitchen designated to a comprehensive gluten free menu.
Cozy, mostly modern, except for the bathroom. Steep stairs to the bedroom. Love the location. Made a few casts from shore, but didn't catch any fish. Walk around to the lakefront a bit steep and unsteady. Otherwise, enjoyed our stay!
The downstairs had a musty smell from the washer and the bathroom door handle spring was broke which caused it to stick out and I cut my arm several times due to it. The place was centrally located for my Mayo clinic appointment and the kitchen was well stocked with stuff I wouldn't even have thought of bringing.
This was so perfect during our trip to Rochester for medical appointments at Mayo! Such a relaxing place to come home to, or stroll around the lake, walk to the grocery store, short drive to appointments!
Property was as described, cute little house right on the lake, in close enough range of Mayo Clinic you can see the building. Owner/manager was easily accessible.
This was a nice place to stay for a few days with my adult children ages 25,23, and 20. The view of the backyard was so beautiful to wake up to. It was the perfect amount of space for the 4 of us. We sat outside and played games, walked around the lake, went kayaking and even did an escape room nearby. Great location! Would definitely come back!
Great location & met all of our basic needs. This property would really benefit from a dehumidifier in the summer months. Very damp/musty smelling. I had messaged the owner at 5:53 pm on Monday evening & still have not had a reply.
Exactly as described. No hidden details that we missed. Nothing misrepresented. I appreciate that. We requested more towels and they were delivered maybe an hour after requested. Would definitely come back.
Lovely property with a great view! Very responsive hosts. Fully equipped and beautifully decorated. Good value’Two items to note:1. Bedroom and bathroom are upstairs, and the stairs are a bit steep.2. Bathroom is tiny. Worked ok for me and my friend. But my husband is 6’ 5” and would not have fit in the bathroom, especially the shower.

Tastefully decorated and pretty updated kitchen and pretty view as well. Could use a deep clean and some attention to detail and some freshening up. Cleaning cobwebs, wiping light switches…new rug maybe?Bath tub/shower is teeny tiny and trimmed with mildew. yucky. Shower mat was broken and mildewy as well Loved having a lake view… felt a bit like fishbowl at night without curtains on the kitchen windows. Overall it was comfy for a few nights.
