Jul 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Unique Drop dead gorgeous lake without the jammed, crowded lake houses so many other Minnesota lakes offer. Unique island location. The sauna was immensely popular with everyone. Special feeling to float in the lake at night after the sauna experience. Armada of toys and games kept the young ones engaged. Kayaks and paddle boards. Two fridges were ever so helpful when you have a party of 12 as we did. Communication with the host was lightning-fast and friendly. The island is a magnet for fish. Overall, a special adventure that our family will long remember. ##### Randy G. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pam J. Jun 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Island Vacation Love this Island getaway. We rented our own pontoon from R&R rentals. Paddle boards and kayaks are provided from renters. Comfy beds, pantry full of essentials and spices. You really just need to bring food, beverages and clothes. Internet was good and I was able to work half days. Loved sauna and fire pit. Wonderful memories nade with our kids and grandchildren. Fishing was great! We will be back. ##### Pam J. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary H., Ossining, NY Aug 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Stay! Well equipped house on a quaint private island. Owner was very responsive. We had 5 adults and 3 kids and there was plenty of room. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Mary H. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shari D. Aug 24, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Island Views! We have our own cabin on Bad Medicine, but rented the island to have room for everyone attending our family reunion. The island is exactly as described, although there are actually 6 bedrooms instead of 4. There were so many amazing places to take in the beautiful lake views...decks, docks, hammock, and every room in the cabin has a lake view. Our group enjoyed swimming in the clear, clean waters of Bad Medicine, one of the cleanest lakes in Minnesota. We caught rainbow trout, visited nearby Itasca State Park, and enjoyed the both sunrise and sunset views. Highly recommend staying here for a relaxing, peaceful getaway. ##### Shari D. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer H. Aug 29, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful island escape The island is absolutely beautiful and the lake is stunning - clear and clean blue-green water, perfect for swimming and kayaking. The house was comfortable and spacious and had everything we needed - a grill, refrigerator, w/d, spices, tv. The sauna, fire-pit, hammock, and two docks were so nice. We watched the sun rise and set each morning from the docks. It was totally serene. We rented the pontoon and it was so easy (and an adventure!) to go from shore to the island. Can't recommend highly enough! ##### Jennifer H. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Casino Hinckley](https://www.expedia.ca/Hinckley-Hotels-Grand-Casino-Hinckley.h17152897.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunrovin Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bemidji-Hotels-Dunrovin-Resort.h12626565.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn & Suites East Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-East-Grand-Forks.h10645720.Hotel-Information) > > [Eagle Ridge Resort at Lutsen Mountains](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Marais-Hotels-Eagle-Ridge-Resort-At-Lutsen-Mountains.h3081909.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Grey Wolf Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Orr-Hotels-Grey-Wolf-Lodge.h15952550.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Quarterdeck Resort & Restaurant](https://www.expedia.ca/Brainerd-Hotels-Quarterdeck-Resort-Restaurant.h15080604.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Premier The Lodge on Lake Detroit](https://www.expedia.ca/Detroit-Lakes-Hotels-Best-Western-Premier-The-Lodge-On-Lake-Detroit.h1484245.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [Mystic Lake Casino Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Minneapolis-St-Paul-Hotels-Mystic-Lake-Casino-Hotel.h198946.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand View Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Brainerd-Hotels-Grand-View-Lodge.h1857783.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Superior Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Duluth-Hotels-Superior-Shores-Resort-Conference-Center.h3957433.Hotel-Information)
