Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
We are native Minnesotans who moved to Washington state in the mid 90's . We grew up enjoying the summers and the lakes of our home state and had both dreamed of owning a vacation property there someday. We have many family members in Minnesota and this large home has been a wonderful place to gather.
Why the Owner Chose Deerwood
We enjoy this area because of the water activities and great golfing nearby. It is also a convenient place to get to from the minneapolis airport.
The Unique Benefits of this House
The resident loon and eagles on this lake never fail to inspire us. Our property is around 2 acres filled with oak trees and in a rural ,peaceful setting.

Family celebration

Review Submitted: 07/16/11
We rented this property July 2 - 9, 2011. We were celebrating an anniversary so our whole family was in attendance (15). We had a wonderful time, everything was as expected. The rooms were very roomy, just as in the pictures. Large driveway to acccomodate all our cars. The weather was hot and humid all week, thats when the pontoon was really appreciated, the lake was warm and clear for swimming, and floating on water toys. Some enjoyed the area golf courses, we dined at the Lonsome Pine, very good food. We spent a lot of time on the beautiful deck, and cooked hot dogs on the grill on the fire pit, along with good ole smore's. We would recomend this property to anyone looking for a good time, with plenty of room. The owner was very helpful in answering any questions we had, and the best part was it was not very far from the city.
Recommended for:Girls getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Everything was perfect. We loved the layout of the house and the large yard for badmitton and other yard games. The lake was so warm and clear for snorkeling and tubing that we went every day. The location of the house was perfect for shopping or just running to the bait shop. We all would recommend this home to anyone looking for the perfect family get-away.
Recommended for:People with disabilities, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
