A modern space with a sprawling floorplan offers the perfect getaway for families and friends to gather. Rest and relax here, and when you're ready to explore the Twin Cities, it is just minutes away. Take in lake views from the hot tub, the deck, living room and sun porch. You’ll feel like you’re up north yet you’ll be close to everything. The Space: This house is perfect for family gatherings, girls weekends, guys weekends, weddings, company retreats and more. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs and 3 bedrooms downstairs, and each level has its own bathroom, living room, TV, and fireplace. Off the main living room is an expansive deck that has a spectacular view of Lake Schmidt. The downstairs living room opens to an equally huge sun porch with just as good of views, heated by a gas fireplace. There is also a wet bar with a sink and full fridge in the room leading to the hot tub patio. I have everything you need here: clean linens/towels/washcloths, all kitchen utensils you need, and cooking and baking spices/supplies, etc. While swimming and fishing in the lake is not recommended, people have done it before if they're feeling adventurous or overly optimistic about fish. The water is shallow so the actively growing aquatic plants in the water usually reach the surface in August. There is direct access to the lake via about 15 steps that lead to the water's edge. There you will find a canoe, 2 kayaks, and the paddles. Life jackets are in the storage bin by the hot tub. Exploring the lake is so much fun! You’ll probably see turtles, small fish, one of the resident bald eagles, egrets, muskrats, and so much more. The lake is teeming with life. And if you come any time in the spring to late fall, you will find a beautiful lily pad field with the most amazing flowers just to the left of the property. There are 6 bedrooms all with queen-sized beds. And for groups that need to accommodate more...four more people can sleep on the two couches that convert into beds in the lower level living room. Four more can sleep on the 2 air mattresses provided. Sleeps 20 people in total. When making your reservation request, please be aware that the number of guests you list when booking is the maximum that will be allowed on the property. Once your reservation is confirmed, you will be asked to provide the names of all who will be at the house for a half hour or more (infants 12 months and younger will not be counted as guests). Please note that there are cameras that are only focused on the entrances to the house and NOT inside the house in any way. Inviting more people to the house that are not listed may result in immediate cancelation of the booking without refund. Guest Access: You will have access to the entire property. Other Things to Note: For your reservation, it includes 4 guests and each additional person over 4 people is $30/person/night. A guest is defined as anyone on the property for over a half hour and over the age of 1. Enjoy the 7-person hot tub year-round - it's kept at 102 degrees upon your arrival. Also available year-round is the enormous fire-pit patio and I do include unlimited kiln-dried oak firewood for you to build as many fires as you like. There is a propane grill on the deck which is always ready. There is seating for 12 on the deck. I offer early check-in or late check-out for $75/hour, but please schedule this in advance so we can plan accordingly. HOUSE RULES: 1) Quiet Hours: 10pm to 8am – Enforced by the City of Inver Grove Heights City ordinance requires complete quiet around the home starting at 10pm. This means all outdoor activity and socializing must be brought inside by that time—no exceptions. My neighbors are extremely important to me, and I have a zero-tolerance policy on this rule. After 10pm, no music or conversation should be audible outside—including to neighbors, outdoor cameras, or the noise-monitoring system on-site. Soft, hushed voices are okay if necessary (like when walking to and from your car), but please avoid any unnecessary outdoor noise, and do not use car remotes that cause the horn to beep—lock manually instead. As you appreciate peace and quiet at your own home, please extend the same courtesy to my neighbors so I can continue offering this space to guests like you. Violation of this rule may result in a fine deducted from your security deposit. AIRBNB’s and VRBO's Community Disturbance Policy also prohibits disruptive gatherings or excessive noise at any time of day. (2) NO SMOKING INDOORS: this includes but is not limited to cigarettes, marijuana, and e-cigs/vapes. Smoking must be away from open doors and windows. You must pick up any cigarette butts or other smoking debris when smoking outside. If I find any evidence of smoking inside, a $1500 fee will be taken from your security deposit plus the cost to remove the smoke smell. (3) Guest list must be provided 2 weeks before your stay must match your actual guests. Guests over what you selected when making your reservation are $30 per person per day extra. Please send first and last names in the message thread. Please understand an open guest list party is NOT ALLOWED and will result in an immediate cancellation of your reservation and any guests over the amount listed when booking will be charged at $30/guest/day. Day guests and night guests are counted the same for fee purposes. Maximum 20 guests allowed on the property at a time. 4) HOT TUB The hot tub is available from 8 AM to 10 PM. During quiet hours (10pm to 8am), we allow up to 2 people maximum if they will follow quiet hours rule-- using only hushed library level voices after 10pm. The same quiet hours apply in the hot tub. • All kids must be supervised by an adult when using the hot tub. Kids under 10 years old are not allowed in the hot tub. • No glass allowed in or near the hot tub. No smoking in the hot tub as debris/ash causes damage to the hot tub components. • Use at your own risk. I request a $1,500 security deposit to ensure these 4 rules are followed. It is your responsibility as the renter to communicate these rules to your guests. To pay the House Rules Deposit: Airbnb: I make a Money Request through the website. The deposit is then refunded through the website within 2 days after your stay if the house rules are followed. VRBO: Will be "held" on the first day of your stay. Not a charge and is released within 48 hours of departure provided the house rules are followed. I do not enjoy being so strict and requiring this security deposit but past experiences have made these steps necessary. I greatly appreciate your understanding. ————— Dogs are allowed at a rate of $150/dog/stay and these rules must be followed: 1\. No dogs on furniture. If your dog is used to that at home, please bring blankets or covers from home to cover furniture. 2\. Kennel your dog when away from the house. 3\. Give frequent potty breaks to avoid accidents in the home. 4\. Must pick up after your dog in the yard 5\. Please don’t leave your dog unattended on the deck so that it barks. You are responsible for any damage to the property caused by your dog. Thank you for understanding. Cats are not allowed due to their scratching and marking nature. Thanks for your understanding. Interaction with Guests: There is a keypad on the main door so just show up and you have the place to yourself. If you need something, I'm usually only 15 minutes away and can help with anything you need. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Electric car charging station on site - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 6 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Shower/bathtub combination ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Garden - Gas grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Electric car charging station - Garden ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78070000/78068200/78068127/41522ffe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dreamy Lake Home with Huge Private Yard Inver Grove Heights - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.6 Exceptional 25 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=78068127&PinnedHotelID=78068127&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93760000/93753700/93753617/42303c12.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Magical Lake Home 9 mins to MOA and MSP Airport Mendota Heights - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 25 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=93753617&PinnedHotelID=93753617&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/60000000/59040000/59034400/59034303/0b413916.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Island retreat on 15 acres of a national park Saint Paul Park - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 19 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=59034303&PinnedHotelID=59034303&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36280000/36270900/36270828/w1826h946x111y0-6c04e1c3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 9 Bedroom Historic Summit Mansion With Pool And Hot Tub Summit Hill - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 20 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=36270828&PinnedHotelID=36270828&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/86000000/85040000/85040000/85039921/9c353ccf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Breathtaking Victorian Mansion~2 Blocks to Cathedral~HUGE Hidden Arcade~Theatre!
