For Zen Den on the Water by Downtown Wayzata, we’re pleased to welcome one pet during your stay. Cats can be considered upon request. Anything more than one pet can be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

JJ was extremely accommodating before and during our stay. Her house is clean and décor is phenomenal. The house is perfect size for a few couples. We always bring our dogs with us on vacation, and this property was dog friendly. It has a large fenced in yard that we all enjoyed. Downtown Wayzata is a short drive away, and a cool area to visit. We had truck issues over the weekend and the repair shop kept pushing back the day it would be finished, JJ was very nice in letting us book another day at the last minute. Thank you for letting us stay at your house and if we're back in MN we'll definitely re-book again!
We booked this stay for the weekend for a mini girls trip which was 6 of us ! The house is absolutely beautiful and everything is so easily accessible! The home is located near a lake which also gave us nice views ! It was very comforting and cozy and would recommend anybody to stay here. The host is also very amazing and is easy to work with. They made our stay worthwhile and would I love to book again.
It’s so worth having a getaway here you will not regret it !
