About the host

Hosted by Rebekah L Stangl

Host profile image
This cabin has been in our family for over 50 years. It has been a source of many laughs and days of relaxation, as well as fun times and family bonding. There is nothing more amazing than the feeling of the sun on your back while the fresh breeze of the lake is on your face. We are at a point in our lives where we would like to share our little piece of heaven, especially in these times of difficulty. I am the mother of two beautiful young women and the step-mother of 3 delightful little boys. We love fishing, four-wheeling, boating and just being on the lake or outdoors. In the boathouse you will find paddleboards and a paddleboat if you want to slow down your lake living experience or feel free to visit Sunnyside Marina and rent a boat or jet-skis and live it up. There are also two restaurants on the lake to enjoy for all your dining experiences.

Why they chose this property

This property allows for all your vacationing needs in one spot. Once you arrive you won't need to leave. A whole host of services are located right on the lake.

What makes this property unique

Balsam Lake is unique as it is located only about an hour to an hour and a half outside of the Twin Cities. It is also unique with its access to two on the lake restaurants and a marina. It is great for fishing, as well as swimming and all your recreational needs, but doesn't harbor the craziness and congestion of the lakes near the cities. Our property is located on 1 1/2 acres so you have plenty of space to spread out and have some on land fun as well as water fun.
