Relaxing getaway

We had a very relaxing stay and spent our one non-rainy day on the deck listening to the relaxing sound of waves. A great quiet place to unplug and unwind. They have a great book selection if you happen to forget one!

Beautiful view of Mille Lacs

Our family - mom, dad, teen - really enjoyed your stay at Eagle Sands. We went kayaking, swimming, exploring, and hiking around the area. The house is very comfortable and had everything we needed. I saw eagles, hummingbirds, butterflies, and even pelicans!

Peaceful doesn't suffice the serenity of this place. Quiet neighborhood, inviting and private sections of the house. It was more home than cabin. Little broods of duck families, and little chipmunks were entertaining. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is great, wonderful views of the lake. The home was stocked well, the towels were well above the norm, plenty of dishes and supplies in the kitchen. The deck and patio were awesome and gave us a great view to the lake as we relaxed. I highly recommend this spacious home .

The house was perfect for three gals who do a girls trip every year. We all had our own bedroom which had very comfortable beds and were clean. There is a roof top deck on the boathouse right near the water with amazing views of Mille Lacs Lake, we were mesmerized by the changes in the sky and lake and took so many photos. The kitchen was great, we lacked nothing, which was great as we at dinners in, all evenings. The restaurants and shopping were a little further than we normally do, but that just saved us a bunch of money. Beautiful spot! Highly recommend.

Great Beach Area

Our family enjoyed our stay. The kids loved the beach and played for hours in the water. You could walk out for a long time and it was still shallow. It’s a great family rental. Very clean.
