Wonderful trip to Lanesboro

Our family stayed in the Lanesboro House and had a wonderful time! The house was perfect for our family and dog. So close to biking, tubing, brewery, restaurants, etc. We all decided that we would like to come back next year.

The location is amazing! Less than a block from kayaking/tubing and bike rental places. The place was immaculate and beautiful with everything you need! We had a wonderful time with our family: biking, kayaking, sitting by the fire, watching movies, playing board games, eating out and cooking a meal in a well stocked kitchens. The beds were super comfortable and the showers excellent. Everything was wonderful!

This property was perfect for a fall weekend in the Lanesboro area. Just off the main area of town, it was an easy walk to shops, restaurants, and the Root River State Trail. The house has been completely remodeled and is super clean, with high quality finishes and comfortable furniture. The kitchen is well equipped. Our teens enjoyed having their own bedroom / living room area upstairs. The backyard fire pit (with firewood included) was a nice touch and fun extra activity. We biked to Preston and back on the RRST (20 miles round trip) which was beautiful with all the fall color and a fairly easy ride. Check in and check out were very smooth. Highly recommend!

Best location in Lanesboro

You can’t beat this central location in downtown Lanesboro. Walking distance to absolutely everything. Spacious house with several beautiful outdoor seating arrangements. Private parking spaces in back or public spaces in front & across the street from the house made parking convenient. Very updated & modern interior finishes & appliances….and comfy beds too. Hosts Jim & Jill were very communicative. If we ever visit Lanesboro again, we’d book a stay here for sure.

Lanesboro VRBO

We love our many vacations to Lanesboro and have stayed at several VRBOs, however, this place was amazing! Perfect place for a large family or 3 or 4 couples to enjoy. The kitchen is fully stocked with high end appliances. We loved the outdoor spaces as well for a fire or dining. Location to the Main Street is a bonus. I highly recommend this home and look forward to coming back!
