Cozy
We wanted a lakeside Thanksgiving getaway and this was perfect! Cozy, warm and well appointed. Craig, the owner responded quickly and was very helpful with the questions we had. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds are comfortable and there is a nice supply of linens. We enjoyed the nearby Grams Park trails and Sand Dune Park trails for walking with our pups. We had a campfire and enjoyed the stars and full moon on the lake as well as the beautiful sunrises. There were various birds on the lake, including an eagle. The wifi works well and the smart tv streams well. The fireplace didnt work during our stay and that was stated on the vrbo site that they are waiting for parts. Fair enough. Overall a lovely Thanksgiving on Lake Fremont! Thank you for opening your lake house to guests and allowing pets. We are very grateful!

Great weekend trip!
My brothers and I stayed here for a weekend getaway from the cities and it was the perfect place! The location is awesome - it's in a cute little neighborhood right on the lake. I did a run around the lake and it was a great route - with part of it on a dirt road that went right up along the shore. The cabin was clean, and a great size for 3 people (would be good for more people too). The cabin had all the amenities we needed and was close to a grocery store and restaurants. It was a great place to spend a weekend and I would definitely go back!

Girls Weekend!
Cute little cabin with a fantastic view! So great to be near to the water. Perfect deck to sit out and chat in the evening. The host was very responsive. We will plan to make it our annual destination for Girls Weekend!

Perfect Getaway not too far from home
This property and house were great! We have 2 small kids and appreciated it not being too far away, but felt like we were far enough away from home. The weather wasn't great, but we were able to use the beach and bonfire pit which were hits with our kids! Very close a few parks, which our kids loved - easily walk-able. The home is just enough for our family of 4 and they had plenty of toys (inside and out) for our kids to play with. The only bedroom is rather small and the queen bed is up in the loft so not a ton of privacy, but it wasn't an issue for us as we had the kids sleep in the bedroom. Kitchen was well stocked. Craig was a great and responsive host. We definitely want to come back when we can actually get in the lake!

Beautiful paradise close to the cities!
This property was beautifully put together and gave for a relaxing stay! The home is small but packs a lot into it! We opted to rent the paddle boards and Maui Mat- and had a wonderful time exploring the lake, the island, fishing off the dock, and just hanging by the beach. We saw lots of nature and enjoyed a fire lake side. Thanks so much for sharing your cabin with us!

Amazing Staycation!
I can’t say enough about our time at Fremont Cottage. Our family spent every minute outside enjoying the amazing sandy beach, cruising around the lake on the paddle boards and swimming in the lake. The lake in front of the cottage was the perfect depth for our small kids to swim! The cabin was clean, cute and had everything we needed and more! Craig was wonderful to work with and will definitely be back to enjoy this property again!

Nice Stay On the Lake
Friends and I had a really enjoyable stay at this lakeside cabin. The aquatic boats and facilities worked out great for us and we enjoyed exploring the nearby island. We swam some but I'd say it's not the best swimming lake due to the good amount of vegetation. I would recommend this to anyone looking to relax by the water.

Fabulous Minnesota Lake House
We absolutely loved our stay at Lake Fremont! Craig’s property was exactly as described and more. We were on the lake everyday with the boat and our kids used the paddle boards just as much. We even felt like locals as we participated in the annual July 4th Boat Parade! 😁 The town of Zimmerman had a well-equipped grocery store for all of our needs and we made quick trips to Princeton and St. Cloud to check our the surrounding area. I highly recommend Craig and his property on Lake Fremont…one of the best VRBO vacations we have had with our family.
