Fun 4th of July Week
Miki was an excellent host. She provided everything we needed at the house and more. The house was very cozy and truly felt like home. The backyard had plenty of space for the kids to play, and the fire pit area was perfect for making s'mores at night. We would definitely consider staying there again.

Exactly what we needed
We came into town for a funeral and for the few days we were there it rained, snowed, sleeted, and hailed. During our trip this place was a wonderful refuge. The host Miki was amazingly responsive, helpful and understanding. (Thanks so much Miki!) The decor is personal and eclectic and warm and comfortable - the very opposite of a sterile hotel room. We spent many hours in the family room and sun room working on our computers (great wifi) looking out the many windows at the lake in the backyard. This place would have been even better in the warm months when we could have used the dock and gone swimming. As it was, the rooms were comfortable, the house was well stocked, the parking was easy, the neighborhood was pretty and quiet and it was easy to get to all the places we wanted to go.

Even better than we hoped!
PERFECT for hosting family and extended family from ages 5 to 72. With a public park next door (including playground equipment and a little swimming beach) in addition to "our own" dock, canoe, fire pit, nice sized yard, patio, et al, we could have happily spent our whole vacation right there without starting a car. There's even a Dairy Queen within easy walking distance. :) A big Cub grocery is 3 minutes away (by car).
Host Miki was 100% responsive and helpful. We felt safe. The neighborhood was calm and quiet. The house was perfectly clean and very, very attractive inside and in back. We hated to leave!

This place has it all!
Check-in exceeded our expectations! Host was thorough, warm, and welcoming. We arrived with a fresh pot of coffee made along with a couple of cold drinks in the fridge and even coffee creamer. This home is stunning to say the least. We utilized all the beds and everyone had a great night sleep. The soaking tub was a big hit with the gals. The real gem is the yard. The lake was warm and great for swimming. The kids caught fish after fish even without bait! The use of the canoe and kayak were a nice option. There are bikes to use but we were so busy enjoying the lake each day we never used them. The "Florida" room began our evening game night area. Good selection of games. Kids were happy to see Kerplunk. This place was exactly what we needed to disconnect from work and reconnect with family. The neighborhood was lovely. Cub grocer is just down the road. If youre looking for a place that gives you it all you've found it!

Heaven on the lake!
This lovely home was exactly as promised and more. Miki met us at check in and gave us a tour to make sure we knew what was there. All the rooms were full of fascinating art pieces, the kitchen was very well stocked, the lakeside made it hard to leave! We can’t recommend this home highly enough! Thanks Miki!

Best stay ever!!!
Miki is the most gracious host I’ve had the pleasure of working with. She gave us a tour of the home and staged the house with fresh groceries upon our arrival. After a long morning of travel, the groceries were very helpful. A boat was made available to us to rent and the family absolutely loved riding on the lake!! She even gave our special needs daughter a gift as a token of her hospitality. Miki was super helpful and available around the clock. Couldn’t have asked for a better host or stay!!

The kids could fish off the end of the dock and pull up a sun fish one after another. We did catch and release.We did swing in the lake.. NOT one leach . I hate those things..
mall of America was close also loved going to Sea Quest. Kitchen, bedding all well stocked. Plenty of outdoor seating. Loved the sun room the kids would play games in there during the day than the adults would sit in there at night . The owner was great at communicating very accommodating.

Loved our stay at House of Blues on the Lake!
House of Blues on the Lake is a true slice of Minnesota lake life with a nod to the arts. Miki’s home is in a fantastic location - close to restaurants and shopping, and just twenty minutes from the airport, yet when there, you feel as if you’re removed from the hustle and bustle and have a view into what Minnesota is all about. While there, we saw loons, an eagle and a great blue heron. Every corner of Miki’s home, including the backyard and the interior, is comfortable and invites one to relax and enjoy. There are delightful and interesting spaces and tableaus at every turn. Miki herself was very accommodating and available whenever we had a question. She went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was comfortable. Our family enjoyed the lakefront, and the swimming was great fun. Thank you, Miki, for sharing your House of Blues on the Lake.

Graduation get together and family reunion
The property was located on the edge of a park and lake front with easy access into the neighborhood. Centrally located to almost anything in the cities.
The owner met us at the home and briefly walked through the house and all of the nostalgia (so incredible, it was like staying in a museum) The rooms were perfect for my 94 yo mother downstairs and 4 adults, all with beautiful views of the lake.
If you like to cook or entertain a guest she had every spice or device you would need including a brand new grill! Plus an added bonus of an Nespresso machine and pods!
The sunrise and sunsets were amazing also. I really felt like this was a most memorable VRBO experience that we have ever encountered! The added bonus was the owner was fabulous and let us stay as long as we needed the afternoon of our flight. Highly recommend.
