My Family and I went here to have a very special family vacation. The owners were amazing, the house was amazing, the location was amazing! We created lots of memories! Highly recommend!
This was a beautiful property that had many thoughtful details. We loved hanging out in the water and using the water toys. We definitely hope to come back someday!

Great location, shore and view! Comfortable cabin with a lot of different areas to spread out in. Enjoyed fishing off the dock and playing in the lake with the grandkids. Other activities and dining are short drives away.

This was the second time we stayed here for our family vacation and loved it just as much as the first. It’s a great location on one of the chain of lakes in Alexandria and is well equipped and spacious for our family to spread out and enjoy. The owners are responsive and have been wonderful to work with. We will likely rent again next year for our summer vacation.

Great space for larger groups, plenty of bedrooms and common areas. Awesome lake front. Host supplies most things you need for your stay, appliances, plates and etc, water toys, games, grill, much more. The house had great decor and made it feel inviting and relaxing. It is an older home and was updated nicely while keeping charm of original era of when it was built. The place was outwardly clean but could use a more thorough cleaning in between guest stays.

We thank you for your kind review.
We appreciate you letting us know about the cleaning and apologize that it wasn’t up to your expectations. We have high standards for our cleaning and we will address it with our team. Thank you for staying with us again! Until next time all the best! Julie & David
This house was great for a week at the lake. Lots of comfortable beds and bedding. The lake was Sandy and clean, tons of fish off the end of the dock. I do VRBO’s in this area every summer and this place was fully stocked with Paper products and all the extras, toys, games, water toys - much more than normal! Only complaint was the dishwasher and the house (being old) was creaky if ppl woke up early/ others were trying to sleep. Overall amazing and would definitely stay again.

Thank you Jodi for taking the time to leave such a great review. We appreciate the feedback as we want everyone’s stay to be memorable. We welcome you back anytime!
This property far exceeded our expectations. There was adequate space for gathering both inside and outside. The house was nice and updated but still managed to maintain it's charm. I was really impressed with how fully stocked the kitchen was including appliances like a waffle maker and crock pot and plenty of dishes. The lake access was also better than we expected. The water right off of shore was nice and shallow and clear of weeds. We were a little hesitant to stay anywhere in the midst of the COVID mess, but the place was very clean when we arrived and they even had placed hand sanitizer throughout the house. We will definitely look at staying here again.

We had the best time at this property for a girls getaway! We spent most of our time enjoying the lake and playing games at the large kitchen island! Everything was clean and organized. Thanks for a great stay at Mary’s Place!
So happy to be back to Mary’s place !
Perfect Cabin /home for our entire family. From kitchen space , living room and bedrooms as well as 3 season porch!
Kids enjoyed the beach and fishing off the dock. The outdoor space , campfire was perfect for us as well.
Grandkids already asking to come back next summer.
This was a very well equipped vacation rental on a lovely lake in the Alexandria lake system. The kitchen has all the pots, pans, dishes, and silverware needed for a big group. It also had coffee, cooking spices, and the basics to do the job.
The property also had all the lake toys we wanted from paddle boat, to paddle board, to water loungers and even a row boat. We rented the pontoon which was great for family rides and fishing. The beach was sandy and there was a great place to swim for our toddler.
The home had plenty of space, great internet service, a three seasons porch and a huge space in the kitchen for us to sit down for dinner and spread out. We capped off most nights with a fire by the lake and smores.
Finally, the owners were helpful, responsive, and very pleasant to work with.

Great memories made at Mary’s Place💕
Mary's Place was perfect for our family. We've stayed in other VRBO's but Dave and Julie provided an exemplary environment with about everything we could have hoped for and beyond. The property was peaceful and full of wonderful surprises throughout the house. Dave and Julie were available if a need arose. Loved our stay and will definitely return. 5 stars
From the cozy decor to the perfect beach, it is what Minnesota summers on the lake are all about. It is a great place to start family memories.

About the host
Hosted by David Kneeland
We live close by, so we are available to assist you in a moments notice, though we have taken great care to make sure you have everything you need. We love this area and grew up on the lake and love watching our grandchildren enjoy it even more. We are proud to be a long time resident of this beautiful lakes area!
Why they chose this property
We purchased this property from a family friend, the property has been in their family for 50+ years. It is our hope to preserve the nostalgia of the old time cottage and share that with our family, guests and their families.
What makes this property unique
We are centrally located on the chain of lakes here in Alexandria. You can travel to 3 lakes from the dock. We have event centers, golf, nature and biking trails and the Lake Carlos State Park just minutes away. You can go for a boat ride for dinner across the bay or across the lakes to Arrowwood. The cottage has the charm of days gone by and the comforts and conveniences of home. We hope that this will be your summer place for years to come!
