Pleasant Experience

We were staying in the area for a family wedding and needed a place for four adults and one dog. The space and location was perfect for our needs. We even found a Rover half a mile away to watch our dog when needed. Norbert and Tami were very accommodating and checked in to see if there was anything we needed but also gave us space to do our thing. We spent time there in between visiting family and wedding activities. We didn't take advantage of the lake activities due to our schedule but did enjoy the beautiful views. The rental was clean, cozy and comfortably decorated.

Not a good experience!

Contacted owner prior re: amenities, sleeping accommodations, etc. Specifically asked about boat rental, kids being able to go tubing, etc. Received message day of from owner with code to get in. Expected a kitchenette. Microwave and hot plate were available, but so sink, no counter to prepare anything. We set food out buffet style on our coolers. Not able to wash dishes easily as water had to be gotten from the small bathroom sink. The grill was disgustingly dirty. We spent close to an hour cleaning it before we felt comfortable using it. The gazebo is pretty from a distance, but there are holes in screen, wood around door is splintered and there is no warning of step down when exiting-which is dangerous. Outside areas are overgrown, not even pretty. Text owners to reserve time for a boat ride with tubing the next morning. Was informed that they were out of town for the weekend, and too expensive for them to return to do that. If we were insistent, they would return for double fees. We brought our own linens and put them on the couch before bed. No problems. The following night, I fell asleep on the other couch, which was just covered with blankets that were there. Woke up the next morning itching terribly. Had bites all down the side of my body that I sleep on. We left that day, a day early. Was checked the next day by medical professionals, and informed I had bed bug bites and treated accordingly. Then spent the day washing and disinfecting everything we had taken with.

Great spot, spacious, clean

Nice place with lots of room for 3 or 4 adults, great lake view, peaceful and quiet. We had aggravating communication problems. VRBO messaging is lousy. They never responded to our first message sent when we booked six months out. They didn't answer phone calls, texting was the only method so there were many frustrating delays. They called and left a message on our home phone with the code to check in several days after we'd told them we were starting our trip so we never got it. We hated the policy that we had to either pay a ninety nine buck damage insurance fee or deposit fifteen hundred bucks six months in advance of the rental before we could go to the next screen to book the place. That's onerous for just a two night stay. I'm saying "bucks" because they won't let me put in dollar amounts – that's big brotherish! We are responsible senior citizens with no pets. We knew we wouldn't damage the place so the insurance is simply throwing cash away. That's a VRBO money grab. We opted for the crazy huge deposit but most folks don't have that kind of money to put on hold. We are fortunate we can. Most will just shrug and pay for damage insurance they don't need and won't use. It's now 13 days since we checked out and our deposit has not yet been refunded. The competition (you know who I'm talking about but big brother won't let me say it here) has a much better policy. They will charge your credit card to pay for any damages. Won't use VRBO again for this reason.

Very lovely property on a beautiful lake. The hosts took us out on the boat for a two hour trip. That was very nice. We even pulled over and jumped out and took a little swim. We build a fire and went fishing off the kayaks. Highly recommend.

Family getaway for long holiday weekend

We had a wonderful time at the house on the lake! Beautiful sunrise, and we enjoyed having coffee in the mornings in the screened-in gazebo. The view was beautiful, gorgeous weather, and Norbert & Tami were wonderful hosts. Norbert took us out on their boat. There wasn't much traffic on the lake - very peaceful - and our kids absolutely loved tubing. We saw eagles, played lawn games, had a bonfire - great trip! There was a restaurant a short walk away, and they had live music the night we were there. Tami is an exceptional cook, and we were so appreciative for the meal she prepared. (We brought home some of The Saucy Mamma sauce, salsa, Bloody Mary mix, and olive oil - my favorite is the rosemary-infused oil for dipping Italian bread.) It was a unique experience and made for a lovely trip.

Awesome stay on the lake

My sister, mom and I came up North for a short girl’s getaway to celebrate my mom’s 80th and we brought the poochies with us. Loved this property, lots of space, beautiful views of the lake and walking distance to Englund Shores restaurant & bar with music. Norbert took us for a cruise on the lake for a few hours and Tami let us sample her The Saucy Mama line of food items before we left (we bought one of everything-yum!). Very gracious hosts, flexible and promptly replied to all inquiries. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again if we’re in the Cambridge/Isanti area again.

Multi-generational family getaway

Property was well-cared for and wonderfully clean. A highlight for all of us was seeing the lake from the pontoon. We brought coolers with food (and used the small fridge) and found the picnic table and grill on patio to be a perfect private dining area. We also spent hours playing cards in the comfortable gazebo. If the weather had been poor, it would have been easy to enjoy time in the rental. The best surprise for us was how comfortable it was to "share space" with Norbert and Tami - they are the perfect hosts for this set-up. We're private people and would lean toward renting without owners nearby. But. although they were nearby, they made us feel completely relaxed about enjoying the lake/yard/house... We highly recommend!
