Annual Girls Trip
Home and property were lovely. I unfortunately did not get to personally meet Dave and Barbara, but my friend that met them at the home to check in told us all how absolutely great they both were and so friendly. Most of our group traveled from Florida so the cold weather was such a nice treat as we all left 90+ temps. Home was large enough to accommodate 8 women full time, only draw back was we could have used more bathrooms lol, apparently we all take a long time to get ready. Would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again.

Elegance on the lake
The house and gardens provided our entire family with a very special vacation. The view of the lake gave us inspiration as we started our days on Mille Lac Lake. The kitchen was stocked with every appliance imaginable with plenty of room for multiple cooks in the kitchen. The stairs to the primary suite with the “ultimate” bathroom could be a challenge for some. It would be difficult to book a more beautiful property.

Perfect multigenerational family vacation!
The property is amazing! We had 9 people ranging in age from 15-75. Teenage boys slept on air mattresses in carriage house (with bathroom) which allowed more space for the adults in main house. House grounds are beautiful and they have several outdoor games/activities good for all ages. Grocery store is 15 mins away and there is literally every kitchen item you would need or want. Not much around in terms of shops or restaurants but our plan was always to cook meals in the house. Randy’s rentals nearby to rent pontoon/jet skis. Owners were readily accessible and seemed truly invested in making it a great vacation experience for our family. Many thanks!
