This was a beautiful place to stay. My 7 year old grandson told me that he loved it there because of the playground in the yard and when I come back up to rent the house again.

This was the perfect location for my parents when they were in town from out of state. The place had all kinds of fun games and activities and it was great for the grandkids to be able to come over and hang out for a bit, but also it gave my parents the space and privacy they needed while visiting for a busy family event weekend. The host was excellent and super helpful. Overall, the place was extremely clean, comfortable beds, and all appliances/amenities worked great! We will book again!

It was our first VRBO experience, and a very good one. We will likely choose the same sight for our next Minnesota visit.

What a beautiful property! Brandon was super accommodating and always quick to answer questions. The house was clean, comfy, and really nicely decorated. The screened-in porch was a favorite spot—at night, the frogs and crickets put on the best concert! We’d 100% stay here again!

Our stay was fantastic with an extremely cold weekend! We wrre able to stay warm and kick our feet up. Plenty of extra blankets and tea on hand! Our host was amazing to respond to an issue we had and was ready to jump in when asked about it. I hope to be back soon!

Get away from civilization!

Had a fantastic time catching up with an out of town friend for the weekend. The place was welcoming and perfect to spread out and enjoy coffee in the morning. I hope we can book again in the future!

The property was perfect for what we needed! We were in town for a meetings and we didn't want to stay in a traditional motel. The property was clean and well cared for, and in a beautiful setting!

This stay was amazing. I booked this place for a guys weekend fishing trip and it was more than enough for the 5 of us. Enough parking we had a boat with us. There are a ton of outdoor games that kept us busy. Walmart and Target’s only 10 minutes away too! This place was great! Hoping to book again on my future trip to Alexandria!! Thank you so much!!

Quiet, relaxing stay

Nice layout, well stocked kitchen, clean. Would definitely stay here again! The only thing on the listing was a futon and we didnt find a futon anywhere. They did have a twin laydown couch in the living room. The bed description was a bit confusing. Minor detail, it didn't affect anything with our stay. Its a great place!

Peaceful Haven

Excellent experience. This is a beautiful property, and the house had everything you would need for a great stay. Super comfortable beds, nice dishes and cookware, and the fully stocked coffee bar was a fun surprise. As were the snacks we found on arrival. Our two teenage boys say thank you! We absolutely loved the screened in porch, and ate out there every night as the sun set right in front of us. 😎. So beautiful and peaceful. Brandon was super responsive, and the check-in and check-out process was very easy. We will be back.

Perfect Girls Getaway

Our group of 5 women stayed at this property for a "50th birthday" Girl's Getaway in the Alexandria area, and it was perfect! Clean, quiet, organized, serene, well stocked with amenities, and simply beautiful! Loved the coffee bar, screened-in porch, games, and kitchen supplies. The check in and check out process was simple and clearly communicated in the guest information binder, and the hosts were very responsive by messaging. A short trip to town (11 minutes) or to the winery/Lake Darling area (18-20 min) was easily navigable by Google Maps on well maintained roads. Cell service was strong and the wifi access was a bonus. I definitely would stay here again and will recommend it to others. Thank you for sharing this beautiful property with us!
