Golf weekend

The VRBO was perfect for our stay for our annual golf weekend! 4 bedrooms and 3 baths was perfect for 4 men! It was really nice that the coffee was provided along with some cookies for our sweet tooth! Place is very quiet! Unfortunately Minnesota’s state bird(mosquito) was too active to enjoy the outside fire pit area! (Not onky at the VRBO property but also on the golf courses we played). Wi-Fi was very good!

LIpskis Naturals Family working vacation

Grandparentsa, Son, and 4 grandchildren had a beautiful and comfortable stay at your property. We all had been attending and selling our products at the Bueberry Art Festival in Ely. The weather at this time of summer can be challenging and it was very hot and humid as usual for the end of July. Being able to come back to the house for recharging was keeping us going. The family enjoyed the playing pool together. And of course with growing kids they were able to eat well. Very grateful and thankful. Jackie - Lipskis Naturals

Cozy, clean, & relaxing

LOVED our stay at this beautiful property in Embarrass. The hosts were friendly & so helpful with making sure we had what we needed for our stay. The house was clean and well-kept, everything was labeled and easy to find, and we were able to enjoy some MN nature through the extensive trails on the property. Other highlights: the ping-pong table/pool table, the sauna, and the expansive bedroom with en suite bathroom. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others who are in the area!

Nice place to relax after long days of fishing.

We came up to go ice fishing on Lake Vermillion and needed a place to stay that wasn't too far away. Lowell and Nancy have a beautiful home tucked in the pines with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommend!

Relaxing and quiet!

We had everything we needed. The pool table was a hit with everyone. The area just got about 7 inches of fresh snow the day before we arrived and we spent a day at Giants Ridge and the rest of the time just hanging out at the house. We enjoyed walking through the woods on the trails. Would definitely go back if we went to the area again.

Wonderful hosts and a wonderful getaway in the woods for ATV trail riding. A great place to relax. We will definitely come back and bring friends. Super fun exploring the area.

Beautiful location, spacious and clean home, wonderful host.

A few friends and I rented this property for a weekend of ATV riding. It was perfect. There is tons of space for a group, plenty of seating inside and out to kick back at the end of a long day of riding, and was equipped with everything we needed and then some. The host was more than gracious, and so helpful. We would absolutely return to the location in the future. Who knows, might try it in the winter. Was extremely impressed with the cleanliness of everything. It was very nice to have ample parking space with trailers as well.

Wonderful stay!

Nancy and Lowell were great hosts. We rode our atvs right from the property. No trailering is needed. They have everything you could ask for and more. So many thoughtful touches that make you feel right at home. We were not aware that there are so many bike trails in the area. If that is for you, you have great options. I absolutely recommend!

a perfect vacation getaway

This was a perfect property for three adult couples who enjoyed a weekend of four wheeling on the local prospector trails. Lots of space. There were three bathrooms so everybody had their own. We enjoyed the pool table area. The kitchen space was easy to use. The dining room table was big enough for our whole group, I particularly enjoy. Enjoyed the ultra peaceful mornings and the view when I was doing yoga.
