                                This was our first time using someone's personal vacation property and we couldn't be happier. We loved our stay at your condo! It had ALL the comforts of home and we were very comfortable and satisfied. The pictures of the condo are great, but they don't do the decor and attention to detail justice. I loved the whole Nautical feel of the place. I appreciated the labeling & instructions of switches / cupboards / washer & dryer / etc.... so important and helpful. I was thrilled that I didn't waste one minute on turning on / off switches I didn't need. I loved the little "Welcome" message on the chalkboard when we arrived and all the helpful information (things to do, restaurants, etc.) you had on the counter. It was all very organized and easy to look through. I wanted everyone to come and see the place we stayed and I'm still talking about it to people here at home (Arizona). We would definitely stay there again on our next visit. Sharon was so helpful and it was a pleasure to meet you. Thank you again for sharing your home with us. It was such a pleasant experience.

                                My wife and I enjoyed the entire week at this beautiful townhome, located on the lake Pepin. Close to downtown and few nice restaurants and cafes, this place offers opportunity to relax and explore wonderful surroundings. Super clean and very comfortable. Sharon (host) was very welcoming and it was our pleasure to meet her. I would definitely recommend this place to any Lake City traveler.

                                We traveled to Lake City for a getaway with our young children and my parents. The owners were excellent about giving us information about the town of Lake City and our points of interest. The townhome was in excellent condition and very clean. It was everything we were hoping for.

                                We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely property in Lake Pepin. We rented the upstairs for five days. Everything was clean, comfortable, and cozy. Our one-year-old daughter loved the decor (ships and birds and lighthouses). We moved just a few items during our stay to make this a safe, baby-proofed space for her. Overall, it was extremely kid-friendly in its layout. Our only concern was that you could hear traffic noise from the highway just outside of the home both during the day and at night. It was an adjustment for us in terms of sleeping-- we had to get used to it in order to "tune it out." You can see the Mississippi River from the home (gorgeous!). The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend this property.

                                Not only was this lovely townhouse clean, comfortable, and charmingly decorated, it was so well stocked. My grown children had mentioned bean bag toss - they had it. We thought it would be nice to have a fire pit - they had it, complete with roasting sticks and fire wood. We wanted to grill - not a problem with the grill and charcoal very handy. We enjoyed having a garage for our bicycles too. We would definitly consider another great weekend here. Thanks!

                                This condo is a great place to stay. It's comfortable, clean and very nicely decorated. It's a great value with everything you will need for a short or extended stay. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were large with plenty of places to stash clothes and other necessities. The kitchen has everything needed plus more. The owners are very responsive with any problems that may come up. Their properties can be rented depending on how many people will be staying so you can choose the amount of space you require. It's a great policy when there are only two people. I would definitely rent this condo again.

                                We had a great time. Sharon and John were great. The house was exactly as described and wonderful. We felt welcomed and Sharon had maps of the neighboring towns and local businesses information in Lake City, such as places to eat, things to do. We saw eagles right out our living room window fishing in Lake Pepin and landing in the tree across the street to eat their fish. I would highly recommend Coastal Charm. Thanks Sharon and John.

                                We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lake City. We were there for a girls get-away weekend. The owners of this property have thought of every detail, including providing information about the surrounding area. The property was very clean, very nicely decorated, and provided ample space for us to watch movies, cook, and just hang out. Sharon greeted us when we arrived and walked us through the property. It's a great location to explore the surrounding areas. It also provides a great view of the lake located across the street. The only downside is that it is located on a busy road, so you do get some road noise in the house.

                              Year Purchased: 2008

                              About the owner: John grew up in nearby Rochester, just 35 miles to the southwest of Lake City, and vacationed here as a young boy with his family back in the 50s. His fond memories are etched forever with all the fun and beautiful times he experienced in Lake City and on Lake Pepin. He's grateful to have the opportunity to experience it all over again as he and his wife, Sharon, have purchased Lake City properties and remodeled and decorated them in their vision of what constitutes the perfect vacation rental. Sharon grew up in Cleveland, OH, and she. too, has fond memories of being near the water (Lake Erie) as a child and then spent her middle years and early adult life in Florida (Orlando) enjoying Florida's two coasts. After she moved to Minnesota in the mid 70s and was introduced to Lake City/Lake Pepin, she knew immediately that this area was a unique and very special place.

                              Why the Owner Chose Lake City:
                              Minnesota is known for all its beautiful lakes, but a lot of people don't know much about Lake Pepin and how beautiful this area really is. Lake Pepin is the largest lake along the Mississippi River (there are over 100 lakes) and offers unparalleled recreational opportunities. Because of its size (22 miles long and nearly 3 miles wide) and steady winds, the Lake is considered to be one of the best sailing lakes in North America. Lake City, over the years, has developed the best and largest marina (625 slips) on the Mississippi River. Lake Pepin is home to more than 65 varieties of fish. The area offers a broad and varied choice of eateries. There are innumerable things to do, places to visit and attractions to take-in within a 30 minute radius. Its proximity to the Twin Cities and Rochester is unique as they provide a steady stream of visitors. The area also enjoys many visitors from our neighboring states, as well as, from all over the U.S. Many people refer to the area as MINNESOTA'S SOUTH SHORE.

                              The Unique Benefits at this Townhome:
                              The unique features of this home are its size and flexibility. It is very comfortable and cozy for just two (2) or can comfortably accommodate nine (9). The panoramic view of Lake Pepin and the majestic sight of Maiden Rock across the Lake in Wisconsin is quite remarkable. The deck is large and overlooks the Lake and the Park and all their activities; the barges, the paddleboat, the sailboats, the cruisers, the runabouts, the fishing boats, the RiverLake walkers, the classic cars, the motorcycles and all the nice people of Lake City. The nice thing about Lake City is that everything is quite close and even the locals love to walk.
