This home was great for our group and had everything needed. The kids enjoyed the game room/loft and the adults enjoyed the view and back patio. We would definitely recommend this home to others. A summer stay here would be even more enticing! ##### Damon E. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deborah S.

The layout was conducive to privacy when needed but also nice gathering spaces for all. Great quality and comfortable! ##### Robert S. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Randal W. Feb 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Spent a winter weekend with kids and grandkids, we loved the house. The large dining table was great for games and meals together. The bunk room was a huge hit, watched several movies on the big screen, played games, and all of the grandkids had their personal space. The four other bedrooms provided plenty of room for the adults. The only problem we had was getting in the driveway during a snowstorm as there is a hill and a curve to negotiate. We were very glad to see the plow person show up the next morning, ensuring we would have no problems. As this property is very new, I imagine will be better in the future. We loved our time here and can't wait to return!Thanks again Jake and Annie ##### Randal W. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Beth S. Dec 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Christmas at the Aurora Lakeside Retreat The memories made celebrating Christmas of 2024 will always be cherished! This beautiful home was the perfect place for our large family to celebrate Christmas together. The attention to detail, impeccable furnishings AND a fully decorated and lit Christmas tree ( a surprise by the owners) struck us as we entered this newly constructed home. The kitchen was well equipped and very organized and the dining area large enough for our family. We loved gathering around the fireplace and the whole main level is so cozy. All 4 bedrooms and 3 baths were beautiful!Our grandchildren's faces as they crossed the catwalk into the bunk room was unforgettable. They loved that space more than I can say! From watching movies on the large projection tv, playing foosball and air hockey to just talking till late in the evening in their bunk beds...it is something they'll never forget. Our granddaughters especially loved the little light within each bunk space where they cozied in to read every night of our stay.What also impressed us were the owners of this home. They responded quickly to any questions or requests and also to an issue out of their control. Their response was far above and beyond normal expectations, especially during the holidays. We've rented through VRBO in Florida multiple times and this by far surpasses any of our past experiences. We recommend this home to anyone looking for an absolutely gorgeous retreat away from home in the north woods of Minnesota. ##### Mary Beth S.
