Fall Break Getaway

We had a wonderful stay! Kelsey did a fantastic job communicating everything. The cabin was just as described, plus many west facing windows overlooking the lake for gorgeous sunsets over the fall colors. Easy drive from Minneapolis. We hope to return in the summer to enjoy the water.

Sunset Cabin time

The Sunset cabin worked perfect for our group. The kitchen is very well stocked. The view of the lake is very restful both from inside and from outside. The dock and water provided lots of fun for the kids, and the fishing was very good. The response to any question was immediate and we felt well cared for.

Balsam Lake Perfect location!

This location is amazing! Balsam Lake is perfect for boating, tubing, jet skiing, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing. We caught lots of fish right off of the dock. Brought a boat and a watercraft and they both easily fit on the dock. In the evening, the fire pit was great for a sunset bonfire and s’mores and in the am the deck above the boathouse was perfect for watching the loons. Wow! We are hoping to get back there next year!! The cabin was very clean and cozy!

Great place to stay!

We went as a family and everyone had a great time! Fishing on the boat and off the dock gave us lots of great stories! The campfire was nice to roast hot dogs and smores! The boat deck is wonderful for watching sunsets and drinking coffee in the morning! The neighbor was very friendly and made us feel welcomed. Sauna looks inviting but never made time to use it. The street is a dead end in both directions which made it safe for walks with the kids. I wish we would of brought scooters or bikes, roads are nicely paved. The location of the cabin on the lake was nice for our family kayakers, not too much boat traffic. Definately going back next year!

Beautiful spot

Beautiful property and landscaping. Well equipped outdoors--3 seating areas outside-- 2 decks & fireside; wonderdul gas grill; excellent dock and steps to the dock & graduated hill-- easy access. Clear water--Balsam is the lake to be! Love this East end as it's not as busy with boat traffic. Nextdoor neighbors on both sides friendly and generous. Dog- Friendly; make sure yours is if you have one; they all run free super sweet!Kitchen was very clean and really well-stocked. The whole place was comfortable and clean; (although it could've used a deeper clean, under beds and cushions, especially if you're bringing toddlers or dogs.) Also, mind the basement door; it opens to the steps. The only thing(s) we would change is the mattresses. Memory foam mattress toppers can be an excellent, quick fix. The bedroom with a full/queen (not master bdrm) was the most comfortable of them all. There are a couple windows in need of window coverings. Nothing too terrible, but bring eye covers if you don't want to wake up with the sun in the master bdrm.

We had a great week, the house is right on the lake, we could swim off the dock and were able to get our kayaks in the water several times.The home is plenty big and everything worked great. Kelsey was awesome, responsive and professional. Only a couple of miles from downtown Balsam Lake and 20 minutes from downtown Amery, which was very nice.We will look to stay here again in the future.

Clean, comfy and spacious!

This property was a great fit for us. Interesting floor plan that gave 7 people all the space needed inside and out. Beautiful view of the lake! New dock accommodated the two boats that we brought. We made full use of the spacious deck and fireplace. Beds were comfy. We were there for a full week, so it was really a nice touch to have a washer and dryer available to us. Kitchen was fully equipped with everything you need. We felt very fortunate to have had 6 days of beautiful weather and the fishing was super. Everybody went home with a full two-day limit of fish. We will be back! Dan and Karla Klinkhammer

Didn't get what was advertised

Property has great potential. When we got there, we found that the air conditioner did not work. When you are charged 300 to 400 dollar cleaning fee you would expect it to be clean. We spent the first hour cleaning up bugs and dog hair in a 83 degree house. We did contact the owner but none of our concerns were resolved. This could be a great rental if the owner took a little more pride in the property and invested in it onstead of just collecting the money. Also found that 3 of the 5 smoke/carbon monoxide detectors didn't work.
Someone came to fix the furnace/air conditioner and left. Never came back to finish the job. Owner never updated us what was going on with it.
Had to also clean outdoor area

Great Cabin for Making Memories

We wanted a cabin to make more family memories with our kids and grandkids and the cabin had all we needed to do just that! The views from the new boat deck and house deck are beautiful. The steps off of the dock for the grand kids to swim worked just great. Lots of room to gather together or the kids to have their own space and TV! This cabin sure meet our needs!

Family fun at the lake

This lake home exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of areas for separation both inside and out. We started our mornings on the boathouse deck and ended the afternoons playing games on the house deck. Several evenings we had a fire in the fire pit with wood that was cut and split for our use.
