Perfectly located property within walking distance to everything in downtown Lanesboro. Food, shops, trails, tubing, kayaking, etc. Place was perfect for a family of 5 with 3 teens. Nicely updated and well thought out with smart tv’s in all rooms and charging ports everywhere you turn. Great stay and hosts!
