This was our second time staying at the treehouse and there is a reason we are a repeat visitor! It's the perfect cabin getaway with a beautiful beach and lake, fun sand and lake toys, beautiful home with all the amenities, and just right for our family of 4 with two younger kids.

Close by

We truly enjoyed this property for a small group of ladies, in town for a church conference. It was the perfect location. Close by to town and necessities but tranquil on the lake. Great gathering place to connect and unwind.

Girls Trip on the lake

This property was beautiful and well-kept, it was perfect for our annual girls’ trip! There was great access to the lake and plenty of spots indoors and outdoors for reading and playing board games. We are definitely considering returning next year!

Perfect Cabin for Girlfriend Weekend

We had a group of six middle aged women, and we thought the beautiful cabin was perfect. It is very clean, quaint and comfortable. The communication with the host and throughout the cabin was excellent. Overall, we could not be happier with our stay.

Girls Weekend Getaway

Myself and 7 other ladies stayed here for a girls weekend getaway. We loved everything about our stay! The cabin is secluded but yet close enough to Annandale/St. Cloud if you are looking for things to do. The beach and lake area was perfect for swimming. The host was very quick to respond to any questions I had and all instructions were communicated clearly. Would definitely recommend this cabin and would love to come back!

MEA Get-Together

Great place to stay for our group of five (over 50) women. The kitchen was equipped with more than what we expected. Beautiful view over-looking the lake from inside or out on the deck. It would be fun to come back during warmer weather to use the beach area with paddle boat, etc. We hope to be back next year! Thank you!

Perfect spot for a lake getaway

This was the perfect place for our group of six friends and two kids to hang out for a summer long weekend. The cabin was clean and spacious with plenty of room for all to eat, play games, and hang out in the living room/kitchen area, on the deck, or on the beach. The kitchen was well-stocked with the basic utensils, plus lots of little things that were surprising to see and great to have, like corn-on-the-cob holders and a reusable Keurig pod. The gas grill and fire pit were perfect, and the water toys (lily pad, kayaks, paddleboat, kid sand toys) were a special treat for us all!

Comfy and Relaxing

The Tree House is comfy and welcoming with the seasonal decorations and the Tree House Tips! We were very pleased with the fully stocked kitchen, the comfy living room furniture, the plethora of blankets and pillows, the relaxing fireplace, and the comfy beds. The view from the living room/deck is so awesome at night, and you can go to sleep with the stars if you choose the loft. We contacted the managers a couple of times - immediate responses. Our stay was in November, and it was oh, so quiet! Truly enjoyed our stay at The Tree House!

It was fine

Check in process was clunky as there was nobody but a neighbor in the vicinity to help. They use a Wi-Fi driven lock system. I am sure it works most of the time,but was a hassle for my crew to wait for communication. When they figured that out we had to wait for them to contact the neighbor and for them to get over. Not an amazing feeling.
