Sobre esta propriedade

Quiet, relaxing home on Lake Watab in beautiful St. Joseph, MN near SJU and CSB

Quiet location and lake home for a couple or family of six or less to discover the beauty of a crystal clear lake less than an hour and a half from the Twin Cities. Full kitchen, living room, home theatre system with cable and internet access, three bedrooms with two queen beds, extra long bunk beds and the blackout curtains are just perfect for a good night’s sleep. New appliances and remodeled bathroom will impress. Hundred feet of shoreline with dock and firepit. A boat launch access is available for a fee of $25 from the Rod and Gun Club. Minutes away from St. John's University, the College of St. Benedict, and St. Cloud State University. Enjoy the Lake Wobegon Trail, a 63-mile great hike and bike pathway, or wonderful fishing with bass, walleye, northern, and sunfish. Great golf courses are available nearby in St. Cloud, Sartell, Cold Spring, Richmond and Albany.

This lake is not heavily populated - so the atmosphere is very peaceful. There is no public boat access. There are few jet skis on the lake; kayaks and pontoons dominate. Bring your kayak or paddle boards, if you would like. There is also very good fishing, with walleye, northerns , and sunnys. Also in the winter months, great cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.

Pretty of great restaurants and bars in St. Joseph which is a five-minute drive away, including Obbnicks, a wonderful new whiskey distillery.

No pets, no smoking.

Off-street parking is available for two large vehicles.

Owners have a private residence in the lower level of this property with a private, separate entrance so as not to disturb your visit and respect your privacy. They are rarely there.

GREAT LAKE ESCAPE

The stay was amazing. The home was close to all the great things central minnesota has to offer. It was a homey space, and the backyard was stunning. It was peaceful and quiet, nd the lake was very clean. The beach was a huge bonus. Great place. Great area. Even better hosts.

The lake was nice

Conflict with the host set the tone for an uncomfortable stay. The smoke detector battery was chirping at 1:30 am the first night. We replaced the batteries at our own expense to fix the issue since this type of thing can happen. The gas grill is not for guest use and we mistakenly uncovered it to take a look. We did not use the grill, but the host became very upset with us. Our apologies fell on deaf ears. Guests may use the charcoal grill, but only lighter fluid is provided. You need to get your own charcoal. We did not grill during our stay. Owners were present in their basement unit for much of our stay seemingly unaware of the boundaries they established. The deck is for guest use yet each time we left the property, the deck furniture was re-arranged. The owners do not seem to want to host as minimum effort is put into maintaining the property or making the stay comfortable for guests. The lake was very nice, but we will not be returning.

Have you ever seen the VBRO commercials with Nick Saban and the list of rules. That is this place. They had 5 pages of rules!!!! EXTRA PERSON CHARGE - Even with all of there house rules, they do not follow the law!!! MN has a price transparency law where even in a VBRO additional fees must be listed in the advertising (which the owner writes). As you will see the listing sleeps 6, the first line in the description of the property states for a couple or family up to 6. NO WHERE does it list any fees. I was charged 400 for extra guests!!!! When asked I was told they charge 50 night per person over 4 people!!!!! * They list air conditioning; however, they do not have central air. They have room units. One of the guest rooms with the queen bed has no unit. It’s also listed in one of their rules although they have these they prefer that don’t use them because they cost money so just open a window.*The couches were very used up. One of the couches had boards under the cushions. Between people sinking into the cushions and the couches being so low they were very difficult to get out of even for middle aged people.*The house is on a lake, that is true; however, there is a very steep hill to get down there and when you do get down there is so much goose poop. As you will see in reviewing other reviews these are not new concerns it’s just how this property is - lots of rules, hidden fees, and an inaccurate listing. Not worth the trip.

Meh...

Positives: Beautiful location on small quiet lake Easy to find and close to town for extra gas and groceries Rental well cared for with kitchen easy to cook in Concerns: Extra restrictions and rules that were not stated at time of booking. Lack of privacy due to owners dining on patio, coming and going throughout the day, using the dock for their own pontoon boat, and constant questioning of guests during their stay. No place for safety should a tornado warning be announced (which it was). The owner’s residence in lower level is not available even if they are present. Aluminum dock does not have any protection for landing boats which makes scratches almost inevitable.

Good Place in a Quiet Setting

We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen. The dining table is not very practical at bar height, it's extremely small, and there are only four chairs in the whole house though the house rents for six people. The mattresses are comfortable. Thanks! The AC is not adequate to the house. Certain rooms are comfy while others get little air. Ceiling fans would help a lot too. The bathtub is terribly slippery and grab bars are needed. There are not enough towels supplied for a week's stay when one is not provided a washer/dryer. Nice place overall; fit our needs quite well. Way too many silly rules in a book that people don't read. Shorten the notes to the important things - bullet them - and move on. Quiet neighborhood; good for walking.

St. Joe rental home

The property is the top part of a family home. There is a private entrance, full kitchen, great room, bedrooms and bath. The owners were in the private lower part of the home for part of our stay and we were notified of when they would be there. This was not a problem for us since we left by mid morning and didn’t return until later in the evening. The neighborhood is very quiet and this property is quite lovely with a large yard, fire pit and dock. There are no laundry appliances available, since we were there for a week, we did not have fresh towels for the whole of our stay. There is a large tv in the great room but no instructions on how to connect to their service. I received a quick response when I sent a request for assistance. Unfortunately, it wasn’t specific enough and we never were able to get it to work. Didn’t really matter to us, but I suggested a written, detailed instruction sheet be left with the remotes. If you haven’t experienced well water in the past, the slight odor of the water maybe offensive. Overall, we were satisfied and would consider staying there again.

Not As Described

First: There are some misleading things about the property post. I will fully admit; I didn't read the whole thing, so I missed the last couple sentences which read: "Owners have a private residence in the lower level of this property with a private, separate entrance so as not to disturb your visit and respect your privacy. They are rarely there." I would not have rented this property if it would have been more obvious that the owners are on site. This should be listed as a duplex, not "quiet, relaxing home." It seems that the owners are saying just enough to not be entirely false, but they're not being entirely forthright either. Other notable differences: The pictures of the home make it seem like all bedrooms have AC units. They don't. The owners say "separate entrance." There is an entrance to their "entirely separate space" within the unit. There is also an entrance to their space at the back of the house. You will see them walk through. The flag pole and number of flags flying has changed from the front picture. There are pictures of a concrete patio, a grill, and chairs; those are off limits for renters. The Ring cameras at the front and back of the house aren't pictured or aren't pictured clearly. There wasn't a tarp on the house in the pictures; when we stayed there, there was a tarp over what seemed like a broken roof which kept 1 guest awake. (I have pictures.) The gas grill is off limits. There is an un-pictured charcoal BBQ for guest use.

Stay on Watab

Property was clean and appointed nicely. Check in and getting in to the property was easy enough. Other than no bottle opener, the house was well supplied. Property manual was thick. Owners stay on the lower level. We could hear their tv in the evening and I am sure they could hear the crying baby overnight. Main gripe is the large damage deposit (over $3500), which has not been refunded 10 days later. We probably will not choose this property again because of the need for damage deposit.

Nice Weekend Getaway

Booked this place back in March. We are from the St. Cloud area, which is only about 20 minutes from this property. I was due with our second child in June, and wanted to be close to home in case we forgot anything or decided to leave early. Took a long weekend at the cabin. It was very nice, clean and cozy. The owners were home during our stay, but it did not interfere with our activities. They were very friendly and welcoming. The slope down to the lake was more steep than we were expecting - it was difficult for our 2 year old and my parents to get up and down it. There wasn't an easy way to access the lake from the shore (only the dock) for our son to play in the water, but there was a park on the lake very close by that we used a few times - it had a nice beach and was very quiet.

Ask more questions before booking

Booked the house for a 2 week stay. We had no idea that we would be sharing the house with the owner. Upon arrival we noticed that the house was split in two. When we arrived at the house we could not get the T.V. to work for us. We contacted the owner and he was quick to reply. He had said that they would be by in a couple of days to fix it. After a few days he had said that he could not get the Apple TV to work but we were able to watch Local channels. So we decided to hook up our lap top to be able to at least watch Netflix. This worked fine until the owner showed up with the wife and kid to stay for the weekend and several other days periodically. All of their devices would connect to the WiFi and it would kick us off. I messaged the owner and he had said that he called the internet company and they were having the same problem downstairs. The owner was very friendly but dose not understand that his stay there greatly affects his tenants stay. The one other thing that made our stay less desirable was the Water that came out of the plumbing had a very bad smell to it. The smell is hard to describe as it smelled like rotting metal pipes or something along those lines. from what I could tell the house has very hard water. When we showered it would take forever to rinse the soap off. if I was asked if I would stay here again I would say NO. The house and surrounding area was Absolutely beautiful! I just think the add posted should give you more info so your not surprised like we were.

Nice quiet place, good location

I stayed in this home in February, which is probably not when most people are seeking the peace and quiet of Lake Watab. It's a nice home, with a surprisingly well-stocked kitchen. All the pots and pans you need to do all your home cooking with!

Peaceful place on Lake Watab

Really enjoyed having a bonfire out by Lake Watab before the snow fell. Charming neighborhood, close to St. Cloud and the freeway. Easy to find. Needed help with the 4 TV remotes and getting the house to the right temperature, but owners were easy to get ahold of to assist. Clean and kitchen was well stocked with appliances and kitchen utensils and dishes.
