This was an absolutely beautiful home with wonderful hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay fishing, relaxing, and lounging by the lake. Everything was extremely clean, bright, and welcoming. We would recommend staying here to anyone who would ask!

Thank you Shelly for your review. Mary and I are so happy to share our home with others as we have been blessed beyond measure. And, hearing that you and your family had a good stay just makes us down right happy. Eric
Property is amazing. The best well stocked vrbo we have been to. Such thoughtful gestures welcoming us with a bottle of wine and candy. Such wonderful spaces with the screened in porch and the comfortable living room. Great times on the deck and dock. Enjoyed the use of the kayaks, A all around. Would definitely come back.

Thank you Jeanne for that wonderful review. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and found our home fully stocked. One of our goals is to hopefully provide everything you need so you're able to start your getaway the minute you walk in the door without having to go shopping for things instead of relaxing and having fun. And, thank you for choosing our place. Eric & Mary
We will definitely be back. The home is beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could ever need, and the lake is just beautiful. Our 6 yr old Grandson had plenty of yard to kick his soccer ball and throw his football. We highly recommend this beautiful retreat.

Thank you Jane for your glowing review. Hearing that you and your family would consider coming back is such a wonderful thing to say. Mary and I have been so blessed that sharing it with others is the very reason we have. Eric
Eric communicated great prior to our arrival and we were well prepared from day one. It is a beautiful home with water views that can’t be beat and the lake is so so peaceful and quiet. We cooked all our meals and never once didn’t have a dish or utensil that we needed. The home was well stocked with soap, shampoo, dish soap etc. We didn’t need it but they even had a bag of “new toothbrushes” in the bathroom which we all agreed was very thoughtful. Our trip was a family get together which included ages of 50-82 and the house was perfect with its large great room overlooking the lake there was plenty of room to enjoy our time together. We loved the available canoe and kayak and even my 82 year old dad took the canoe out twice. The home was exactly as represented on the listing and well exceeded my expectations, thank you for sharing your home with us!

Thank you Angie for your review. We're so glad you were able to shut out the rest of the world and get some R&R. It makes us happy to know that our guests had a good experience. Thank you again for choosing to stay at our place. Eric & Mary
The cabin is beautiful comfortable and very clean. The environment is very peaceful and a great place to relax and recharge. The fishing on the lake was great for our boys and it was so nice to be able to have the kayaks and canoe to explore the lake. We would love to return! Thanks for a wonderful visit.

Thank you Michele for your nice review. We're so glad that you and your party had a good time at our home and were able to relax and enjoy it. Also, thank you for being great guests. Eric & Mary
This is the perfect place to stay if you’re looking for time on a quiet lake for fishing, playing around, close proximity to hiking and a super cute town, and just a place to enjoy a nice evening with people you love. The house is situated perfectly on the shoreline with a wonderful view of a small island. It is a great place to go fishing with lots of other spots equally as good nearby. Our family of six fit the house perfectly. We had kids double up in the rooms without issue thanks to the queen sized beds. There is plenty of space to make a great meal and enjoy it together. Our family enjoyed relaxing after swimming and paddle boarding with movies in the super comfortable living room.My personal favorite spot was the screened in porch. It’s a beautiful spot to watch the hummingbirds, listen to early birdsongs and loons, and enjoy a cup of coffee, glass of wine, or beer at any time of day.Highly recommend this house and the owners! They are clearly gifted at creating wonderful spaces for people to enjoy together, and we will look back on this trip with so much fondness. Many memories made!

Thank you Irene for posting such a wonderful review. You and your family are the exact reason we open our home to others. Being able to share the incredible blessings we have received with others makes us so happy. Especially when it makes someone's stay special. Thank you again Eric & Mary
A Perfect Lake Getaway If you're looking for a true lakefront escape, this place delivers. From the moment we arrived, the view was absolutely stunning — waking up every morning to the water right outside the window never got old.The dock was a highlight. We spent hours out there watching the sunset, fishing, and just soaking it all in. But honestly, the kayaks stole the show for our boys. They were out on the water every single day, and the yard gave them plenty of room to run around between adventures. It's the kind of property that keeps kids (and adults) entertained without anyone even having to pick up a phone.The house itself had everything we needed — nothing was missing, nothing felt like an afterthought. It was well-stocked, comfortable, and the kind of place where you can truly unplug and relax.We came hoping for a great family trip and left with memories we'll talk about for years. Highly recommend to any family looking for a lakefront property that actually lives up to the photos.

Thank you Jeriod for taking the time to review your stay. I know we say this in other responses but I wanted you to know that Mary and I are so glad you and your family had a good time. Eric
Beautiful home, well equipped with spectacular view. We caught supper (bass an crappie) off the dock. Weather for august was amazing-high forties to high sixties. Enjoyed a variety of local restaurants and bars, especially Maucieri’s. Owner was super responsive. Highly recommend this rental .
The house has everything. Comfortable beds, a bit high but we managed. Waking up to a keurig and lake side seats. Kayaking for the first time, that was so awesome!We had a blast and it was very relaxing. The owners are very communicative and just really wonderful to work with!Thank you so much for sharing your piece of a dream life!!! I think I have to come back!

Thank you Vicki for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your time at our home. We LOVED having you there as you and your family were great guests. Hopefully our paths will cŕoss again in the future.....Eric
We absolutely loved our stay at this home! The house was spotless, and so very comfortable! The hosts were super helpful and check in was simple. Anything you could think of was provided, from the kitchen pantry full of spices and every pot and pan to the bathroom with shampoo, conditioner and soap. All we needed was a few groceries and our toothbrushes! There were lake towels for all of us, in addition to life jackets, which we appreciated. We spent our days kayaking and canoeing, swimming in the lake, and watching the wildlife, including the resident bald eagle. We built a bonfire every night and listened to the loons. We ate dinner several times in Crosslake, which was a 10-15 minute drive, and got ice cream at the local shop there almost every day! We rented a pontoon boat in Crosslake one day, it was super easy and a lot of fun. There was plenty of room in the family room for all of us to watch a movie at night and lots of blankets to share. The beds at night were very comfortable, and we all slept great! We have stayed in a lot of vacation homes over the years, and this was the most comfortable and homey of all of them. It was a perfect family vacation and we are already talking about when we can make it up North again!

About the host
Hosted by Eric Miller
My husband Eric and I sold the home in which we raised our family and built a smaller one on Kego Lake in Fifty Lakes, Minnesota, now that we've been empty nesters for awhile. We take a few week-long camping trips every year, and decided to open up our home for the times we're going to be gone. We offer a place of relaxation and fun, while earning money to pay our lake home taxes! So, this home is not really a "rental," we live here. We will be donating 10% of our profits to charities. We moved in August of 2019 and just love it. We hope that we can share this great spot with a few people each year. It's really a special place.
What makes this property unique
Our home is on a very quiet private road with pristine views of Kego Lake. It's newer construction and has a fun vibe. Kego lake is a popular fishing lake; you can fish off of the dock, or tool around in our 14ft fishing boat (free for guests staying 3 nights or more). If you prefer elbow grease to motors, take out the canoe or kayaks for an adventure. If you are looking for a particular date and we don't have our home listed, please contact us as we may be able to accommodate!
