This is our third time coming to the island and we hope to keep making it an annual thing. The island is big enough so that our family of 10 can spread out and have our own quiet time but also there are plenty of communal spaces to spend time together. It’s truly a special place. I highly recommend you come and check it out. You won’t be disappointed

Very nice private location to host a family gathering. Beautiful views from almost any place on the island. I would love to book again and maybe stay a couple days longer this time.

This was a great property for a family vacation. Large enough to accommodate all 12 of us comfortably. The cabins are comfortable and very user friendly. Host was great and very accommodating. The tea room was a favorite gathering spot.

Fantastic Island

We had a wonderful time on the island. We all enjoyed fishing sun fish right off the dock, being able to go around the whole island doing things-swings, volleyball, hammock, game room, fire pit. Thanks, Chris

This was a really cool property! Great environment to hang out with our family. We were there in October so swimming was limited but we'd love to come back in the summer to experience that a bit more. Having the whole Island to ourselves was very fun and unique--the kids loved it. Kris was great to communicate with. Only issue was with a couple of the pontoons but Kris seems on top of ensuring this is being managed and worked with us on a refund. Great stay overall.

Great extended family getaway

We had three generations of family stay on the island for a long summer weekend. There was lots of space to spread out for games, reading, napping, and kids and dogs running around the yard. We hung hammocks in the trees, had fires at night, gathered for meals in the guest cabin, and played games in the tea house. The water in Long Lake was so clean so we really enjoyed a lot of swimming and fishing. Beautiful property!

Island time, Minnesota style.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful Oasis. It was fun exploring the island, playing cards in the Tea House, Taking Sauna's and jumping in the lake, Evening fires, and checking out the lake via pontoon, and just plain relaxing. Thanks Chris

Relaxing Getaway

My family and I spent most of our time on the lake fishing but still enjoyed some time on the island. Most everything was good, no big complaints. Our biggest struggles were that the instructions were a bit scattered and outdated. We had a little trouble figuring out how to get heat in our cabin until we realized the breaker was off. Overall though, a great vacation!

Much needed bliss

Our family and another family that we have vacationed with for several years decided that during this COVID19 epidemic, we needed to get away for a few days and just unplug and get away from the media and our computers while still staying safe and not going anywhere we would be around large groups of people. This island was perfect for that. We could spread out and enjoy the space as each of us saw fit. We enjoyed some fishing off the docks and on the pontoon. And at night we enjoyed bon fires and playing games in the tea room. It's an amazing space. Our dog absolutely was in heaven too. She got to run leash free for 3 days. We would definitely rent this space again for our families.

Perfect Spot

Beautiful setting. The cabins and "outbuildings" were in excellent condition. Loved watching the family fish on the pontoon from the wildflower bench. Swimming area was nice. Great to have the swimming dock. The family spent a bunch of time in the tea house - playing games, putting puzzles together, and relaxing. Great fishing.

Perfect for Big Families

This "island getaway" was everything we hoped. It was perfect for our big family to relax and enjoy nature. It was wonderful to have so much space to spread out and so many different activities for all age levels - boating, games in the tea room, campfires, walks, swimming, yard games, and reading in the hammocks. Truly the Minnesota paradise we were looking for!

Paradise

The pictures and description are completely accurate when describing this wonderful island paradise. The cabins are comfortable and well equipped with room for everyone to spread out and do their own thing or gather in the Tea House and play games on a rainy day. We had a fantastic week hanging out with family, fishing, and just relaxing away from real life for a while.

Unique Island Stay

We loved our stay on the island. I have never experienced anything like it. I would like to come back again and enjoy all the different seasons here but it was great in the summer. Chris was helpful getting us all set up and getting the boat over to the island. The property was beautiful and private and the cabins were very nice. We especially loved the tea house and spent a lot of time there. My kids and dogs loved being able to run around the island and explore and then jump in the water to cool off.
