About this property

Green Lake home with a shallow sandy beach on the north shore.

This lake home sits on Green Lake in Central Minnesota. A paved 12 mile road with a bike trail circles the lake. Enjoy boating, swimming, fishing, canoing, kayaking, paddle boarding and most of all, relaxing! The cottage boasts 2000 finished sq ft on a 50ft x 200ft lot. There are large decks both in front and back of the cottage, room for yard games, and a sandy/level lakefront perfect for young children.

The property has two outdoor areas: a large granite table, serving bar and pizza oven next to the lake. The deck on the lakeside has a sofa, 2 love seats, 2 chairs and gas fire place. I love using both of those areas for entertaining.

When you fish from the dock you can catch bluegill, perch and bass. The lake also has a great supply of bass, walleye and northern pike.

Local amenities include: Sibley State Park; Willmar; Little Crow Ski Team and the Little Theater.

Green Lake has a lakeside restaurant and additional restaurants in Spicer. A full grocery store, small movie theater, and many other attractions are in Spicer.

The property was initially part of a small resort and shares a driveway and walkway with a small cabin next door. The owners may occasionally use this property when they check the bees they keep on the property. The two places are about 15 feet apart.

The cabin has a ring doorbell.

Cabin on Green Lake

Amazing views of the lake. Plenty of relaxing places to sit and visit or just relax. The kitchen is very usable and open. The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. Looking forward to staying here more in the future.

Beautiful cabin on Green Lake

The property is beautiful, on Green Lake and close to town. Lots of different areas to sit , visit and relax. The beach has a sandy bottom, and is shallow. The kitchen is well outfitted. Beds are comfortable, plenty of nice linens and towels. The host was very responsive. My family had a wonderful time here!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Green Lake home. Although the weather did not cooperate as well as we would have liked, the house and outdoor space lacked absolutely nothing. We enjoyed using the paddle boards and swimming off the dock. The view was beautiful and we felt there was plenty of space for 6 adults and 2 kids with room to spare. Check in/out was simple. We ended up arriving later than expected, access into the home was simple. Maria was very responsive and helpful.

august stay

home was beautiful, so many perks, very charming. Anything you would forget , was there. from the roasting forks, crock pots, dishes, tons of towels, pillows, quilts, plenty of lounge chairs and seating by the fire and dock. The pictures and history of the lake area on the walls and in books were amazing. The lake front was right there when you walked out on deck. The swimming area was great, couldn't ever ask for anything better, all sand and very shallow for our grandchildren, ages 2 to 5 loved it, they furnished a launch pad-raft for the kids. Kids loved it. Maria was very helpful and friendly, great family to rent from!

Beautiful Sandbar - Not Much Privacy

We spent over two weeks at the property. As stated in my review title, the sandbar off the dock steps is very nice. It's great for kids and adults. For the price we expected as much. What we didn't expect, and which was not stated in the VRBO description of the property, was the continuous presence of the owners in guest cottage less than 50 ft from the property! We had very odd encounters with one member of the family, who thought nothing of shouting through the screen door at 830 pm, muttering annoyedly about why the door was locked?!, and asking for his fishing poles inside the house. It became apparent that the family was renting out the main house due to financial difficulties. They made comments to us about how cramped they were feeling in their tiny cabin without air conditioning. It was very uncomfortable! Their presence for the entire two+ weeks of our stay was not disclosed before we arrived. Once there, what were we to say? Before renting, I would check with the owner to see if they will be staying on site. Everyone in my party, along with guests, found the setup extremely awkward. We would not return under these circumstances.

The property was clean and very spacious. The only reason I was disappointed was with the description of the Sandy Beach. There actually was no beach, it was all rocks and it wasn’t sandy until you got in the water a few feet out from shore.

About the host

Hosted by Maria Saulsbury

Host profile image

I grew up on Green Lake and absolutely love to share the area with my guests. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

Why they chose this property

I chose this spot on Green Lake for the sandy shallow area - you can walk in the sand quite a distance into the lake. I also love the north shore because of the beautiful breeze (sometimes wind) that keeps the property cool. On a wavy day, it is so much fun to play in the waves.

What makes this property unique

This propery is fantastic because of the dining area right on the lake shore. We love to host friends and family at this spot. There has been a lot of pizza made in the pizza oven followed by some good games of bingo. Let me know if you want my pizza dough recipe and any tricks to having a family pizza night.
