Our stay was absolutely amazing! The rental unit was very clean, the decor was amazing, all of the extras from snacks to other amenities were awesome. It was the most comfortable bed and amazing pillows I’ve ever had at one of my rental stays. I would definitely stay here again!

Loved this updated and well appointed unit! Very thoroughly equipped. One suggestion, we would have liked a folding table and folding chairs for a table option for playing games.

Great place! Perfect for my son and I to stay on a golf trip. The pull-out couch was big enough for my 6 foot teenager. Appreciated the coffee and complimentary snacks.

This condo has been my favorite stay in a one bedroom place in the past couple of years! We were there to golf the local courses & it was such a nice space to come “home” to. Clean, comfortable, and right on the water! Pet friendly, so our golden retriever was in HEAVEN. I loved the pickle ball court and hot tub too! Wish we could have stayed longer. Will def be back!

If you are looking for a cute place to stay that is more budget friendly than staying at the Lodge than this place is for you. Pictures are exactly what you see when you open the door. Very clean and well maintained. Very quiet, can’t hear the traffic off the road. The lake is beautiful in the evening with pink skies. Very close to nearby restaurants, golf courses and ski lodge. The host, Stacy, is very kind and left us a welcome note, snacks, coffee pods/tea. She responds quickly to any messages and is knowledgeable about the area. I would definitely stay here again

Nice, very clean lakeside condo at Giants Ridge. Stacy was very responsive on all questions and restaurant recommendations. Complete kitchen and dining area. Really nice bedroom, bath and linens. The outdoor lakeside sitting area overlooks a pretty lake just starting to show off fall color. It is right on the Masabi paved bike trail to pedal through woods to Embarrass or Biwabik or Aurora. I wish we had reserved more time to keep on biking. It would also be so fun to return for downhill skiing, mountain biking or boating. This is a great Up North rental.

This place is awesome! The host was in contact ahead of time with pertinent instructions and contact information in case we needed anything. We were wowed with the units cleanliness and amenities. There was nothing lacking and so much extra. Fluffy towels, nice bath products, extra supplies in the closets, stacked washer and dryer, battery chargers in the nightstands for all our electronics, games, puzzles, books curated to the area, 2 tvs, even some paper and art markers in the desk. Everything worked and nothing broken. These hosts must be well traveled to have anticipated any need. The unit has updated contemporary charm with new paint, kitchen, bath and flooring. We drove right across the highway to the ski hill - new powder the first day and nicely groomed runs the rest of the time. We stayed 3 nights. It was a great trip!
