We stayed at this lovely lakeside home in Cannon Falls while in town for a wedding, and it was perfect! The house was clean & comfortable, with gorgeous lake views right from the deck. We enjoyed peaceful mornings by the water and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the area!

Great Family Getaway

We had a lovely time being together as a family at this property. Even though the lake was at winter levels, we still enjoyed the views from the main level. The kitchen was well equipped to make family meals. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. The layout is nice for families.

Home away from home

Quiet, peaceful stay right on the lake. A lot of living space and absolutely everything we needed for our stay was available to us. Added bonus was the attentiveness of the owner, Mark. He was available via text/phone for all of our questions. Really hoping to come back to this beautiful place.

Superb!

Amazing location, views, and serenity. Owners go above and beyond to provide all amenities, games, coffee, and very well-stocked kitchen supplies with everything you could need when away from home. Everything was easy to find, labeled, easy to access.

Great winter ski trip stay

We stayed at this lake home during a ski trip to Welch Village. The house was perfect for our family of five to enjoy. 25 min drive to the ski hill. Hot tub for an apres ski soak, and fun activities for family game nights (pinball, darts, puzzles and more). Mark and Ann were very communicative and keep the house well-appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
This has been our home for nearly 20 years. Our children are now in their High School years are we found that driving into town for all their activities was just too much - so we bought a house in town. This is not an investment property but now a family cabin that just isn’t being used as much as it deserves.

We hope that you find as much joy and fun in this place as we do. This end of Lake Byllesby is quite unique during every season. During the busy summer boating season, this end is extremely quiet and peaceful. Due to the river delta, the bird species are plentiful and boats are few and far between.


This is Minnesota Paradise

What makes this property unique

The views and serenity are truly amazing. What makes this property unique and stand out from others on this southern MN lake is even on the busiest summer Saturday afternoon, it’s quiet here. Being quiet and on the river delta end of the lake however doesn’t preclude one from enjoying the main water activity in the deeper main part of the lake. Staying within 150’ of the north shoreline in your personal powerboat or pontoon (which you may tie up at our dock) as you proceed eastbound gives access to all a warm MN lake has to offer
