The house was fully supplied, more kitchen tools then we have seen in other nightly rentals. Although we were there for a quick family trip in the winter...we enjoyed what we could. So no reviews on the outdoor activiites. It was appropriate and roomy and had extra blankets and pillows too. Host did a great job communicating with us.

We had 15 people stay. Room for everyone to sleep, that was great! There was little room for kitchen/non refrigerated food supplies we brought. Other then that the kitchen was completely stocked with all needed pots and pans etc. We had rainy days so stayed inside or used the game room. We all had a good time! Thanks Greg

We had a fabulous family stay at this VRBO. Greg was a great host, there was plenty of room and it was a great location. The weather couldn't have been better! We booked this because of the number of rooms, location and the game room with pool table. We didn't know that Elvis would be there, but that was just a bonus, as Mom is a bit Elvis fan! We did a wonderful tour with Ella of the Faribault Woolen Mill and had a picnic at the state park near Waterville. We even caught the ice cream truck that went thru the neighborhood. We spent quality family time talking and playing games. A vacation we won't forget!! Thank you Greg and the Wilmes family!

Great family destination!!!

This is a great family vacation destination! We were looking forward to kayaking. I expected only two kayaks. What a surprise to find six kayaks available for our use! We spent many hours kayaking, not to mention spending time in this beautiful house. I highly recommend this property.

The house was large and homey. It has some quirks, but was very nice for our large group. The beds are very soft, and the water can get scalding hot. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with spices/dry goods/ and a good assortment of cookware. A nice selection of fun plates that my toddler enjoyed. The location is great for access to Kamp Dels and downtown. We appreciated the lake access and dock, but found better swimming a quick drive away at Lake Francis. Our group enjoyed the easy access to bike trails and big green space. The game room was awesome and nice that it is separate from the main house. Greg was a very responsive host and we had a great time in Waterville.

Welcoming. We had a group of 9 and would have loved to have another couch or a lazy boy rocker/recliner and comfy chair. We had a 1 year old used to being rocked to sleep, so we moved one of the outdoor rockers into the house for bedtime. Our stay was not so much a vacation as a family reunion, so we spent most of our time and meals at my brother's house across the lake on North Shore Rd. We had to drive to his place to do a pontoon boat ride as water at the vrbo's dock was too shallow and he didn't want to risk tearing up bottom of his pontoon. Kitchen was fully stocked for cooking/serving food but we did not need anything other than coffee mugs and forks and spoons and one fry pan for our breakfast. The VRBO did have coffee, filters, sugar but we used our own coffee. Kitchen also appeared to be stocked with common spices for cooking. We did not get a chance to use game room above the garage, it did look inviting or the firepit area, again spent our days at my brother's home only came back to vrbo to sleep. Greg, the host, answered any questions we had by the end of the day. We were not familiar with this key lock but finally figured out how to lock up when we checked out. If you plan a larger group know seating is limited for dining indoors and watching TV. Note, arrive early to hit the grocery store, it closes at 5:00 p.m. We were about 45 minute drive to Mall of America, which was on the bucket list for half of our group who had never been there. We will return.

Great Family Vacation

I would like to let you know that we had a wonderful time in many ways. We even had room in the yard to play games. Many of us used the kayaks, the games above the garage, playing basketball, fishing…we also enjoyed the sandy public beach and the public playground. I should also mention that the neighbors were very kind and friendly. And it was obvious that the people in the neighborhood were very careful as they drove nearby—Conscious of children. SO SENDING THANKS FROM THE OFSTEDAHLS!

Time with family and grandchildren

Beautiful property. Much needed week away with family and young grandchildren. We were able to take advantage of the location. Local parks for the grand daughters and a field trip to the Schell’s Brewery for the adults.Two lakes to enjoy. One close by and the other very close. Local Kamp Dells is one of the best area resorts that does Day Passes during the week for fun and games.Space in yard allowed for us to have yard games and water table for the littles. Porch provided area out of the sun, and the game room above the garage was great for late night entertainment for adults.Much more house than our group needed, but 2 yr old grand daughter LOVED “her” Winnie the Pooh room and her birthday party while we were there.We were having difficulty finding property that would allow family pets, and were excited to find this one.Excellent communication from owner before booking, before our stay and during the stay. Thank you Greg!

Family Get Together

House was perfect size to celebrate my parents 40th wedding anniversary. When booking be aware the price is for 4 people. For every additional person there is a charge at the end. We needed this location so even though I tried to look for something cheaper there wasn’t much. The kids LOVED the game room. It was great for a rainy day to keep them busy and the stereo was perfect. Kids had fun fishing and caught a few walleye and sunfish but the lake is not the best for swimming. It gets very green and we even saw blue green algae. Took a walk to the public beach and it was ok but didn’t look great so we opted to go to camp dells for swimming. Some rooms had good curtains and shades while others barely had anything so if you want to sleep in it can be hard when the sun rises early.

We came for a family gathering, coming from Alaska, Colorado, and Minnesota. The house was perfect for our group. We had two year olds to 70-year-olds and it was the perfect set up. Gregory is an awesome host, very responsive and accommodating. The house is beautifully equipped. We cooked dinners for our group of 11 and had everything we needed. We walked to the swimming beach, to town, and The Cool Wave coffee shop. I would definitely go back and highly recommend this wonderful property.

Nice big house close to the lake.

Four Morgan siblings had a mini reunion back in Southern MN, where our father grew up and we used to vacation every summer 50-60 years ago. Nice big house, close to, but not on, the lake (as the ad seemed to imply). But very happy with our stay. If and when we head back to MN in the future, I would look for this property again, and isn't that the bottom line? And don't worry, the game room does have pool cues, even though the ad says to bring your own. Recommended.

The property and house were very nice. Our only concerns are the downstairs bathroom toilet has issues with backing up without anyone doing anything other than a number one in it. Also, the cabinet above the refrigerator looks like it is going to detach itself from the wall? Everything else was as described and very clean.
