Exactly What We Needed!

Our group was in town for a nearby dance competition and this property was perfect! Spacious and clean with picturesque views of the lake. The dance moms plan to visit again when we can actually relax and enjoy all the amenities offered!

Great cottage for family trip

My family had a lovely stay at the cottage for Christmas. The cottage is beautifully finished and we had everything we needed for the entire family (age 4-70).

Family Recharge

Perfect home for our family of four. Spacious and well-equipped kitchen and plenty of places to relax both inside and out. Conveniently located and very peaceful. This was our second visit, but not our last!

Incredible Lake Home

Completely remodeled lake home with upscale finishes throughout. We enjoyed a very comfortable and cozy stay. (We did need a hint from the host to find the “secret bedroom”, but glad we found it).

Waconia Lake Cottage

Beautiful house! Lots of places to hang out. Very comfortable and well-provisioned. We all got a kick out of the hidden bedroom! We hope to rent it again someday!

Wonderful cottage with beautiful setting

We had a last minute change in our women's getaway and we were lucky enough to find this lake cottage available. The views were wonderful from the many windows. The beds were comfy, the cottage was clean. Great kitchen with everything you would need. We rented a pontoon and had a relaxing day on the lake. Hiking nearby along with wineries, breweries and restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit! The owners were very responsive and helpful. Thanks, Dave and Tracy

Great stress relief getaway!

We had a wonderful time at this VRBO. The weekend started with the search for the hidden room which was a fantastic way to kick off our fun time. All the bedrooms were very comfortable; it was great to all have separate baths. The deck was our favorite place to hang out, have a frosty drink, listen to the waves and watch the chickens strut around. When it got too chilly outside, the livingroom fireplace was perfect for the rest of the night. Our hosts were very friendly, personable, helpful and willing to answer questions. The fresh eggs were also very much appreciated. We'd definitely recommend this property and plan to return!

Full moon over Lake Waconia

Ours was a short trip of only three nights and the moon was almost full all three nights. So beautiful watching it reflect off of the lake.We were all so thrilled to be there! I don’t know where to start… The hosts, Tracy and Dave, were absolutely wonderful. They live right next-door and are so friendly and accommodating. We love their chickens and duck, and of course, their big dog, Hank. All were friendly.The property itself is beautifully remodeled and clean. It looks just like the pictures.The view of the lake every day was amazing and is definitely something wonderful to wake up to.Everything was included and even though we did bring some items, we really didn’t need anything. They thought of everything.We are talking about coming again and staying here next year for a little longer.I would highly recommend booking and staying here! Wood for the fire pit was provided.We did go to the local market for bottled water.The stores were a seven minute drive.Unfortunately, we did not try out any restaurants or anything local because we were only there for three days and none of us wanted to leave the property, to be honest!So quiet and peaceful and calming. We had beautiful weather and the full moon over the lake? Gorgeous!I don’t think I could’ve asked for more if I had drawn out a vacation place for my self and loved ones.Thank you again, Tracy and Dave for being such wonderful hosts and allowing to experience your beautiful home!

Celebrating a Birthday

Our group of three sisters and their spouses were very impressed as we entered this lovely home. Its description and photos were exactly what we expected. We really enjoyed beautiful Waconia Lake. This lakefront home has well-groomed yards, along with comfortable patio furniture to enjoy the outdoors. Equally enjoyable was its spacious interior. Thank you to our friendly host, we had a great time! We highly recommend this property!

Family lake stay

Relaxing home right on the lake with close location to trails and downtown Minneapolis. Our dog loved sitting on the deck and watching the free-range chickens. Owners available to answer any questions. Would definitely book again!
