Only feedback is the cooler in the garage didn’t work and that would have been great to have. Loved having that area to hang out. Would be nice to have campfire wood. Overall clean and comfortable. Thank you! ##### Stacy K. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiffany R. 4 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had the BEST family Thanksgiving at this VRBO! We brought a full crew — our two boys, my sister and brother-in-law, and my parents — and there was more than enough space for everyone to spread out and relax. The home was spotless, welcoming, and had that “we can actually exhale here” feeling the second we walked in.The kitchen was fully stocked and made holiday cooking easy (a miracle). The views of Madison Lake were gorgeous and gave us that quiet Minnesota vibe we miss. The living areas were super cozy for movies, games, and just hanging out together — exactly what we needed.The hosts were wonderful and responsive, and everything was exactly as listed… honestly even better. If you’re looking for a peaceful, comfortable spot for a family gathering, THIS is it. We will absolutely be back! ##### Tiffany R. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan H. 28 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Girls weekend The property was clean and well equipped. We liked being in the dining room to overlook the lake but also missed having a family room on the main floor. The family room downstairs was very comfy but would have been nice upstairs. Front door needs to be replaced. Pretty spendy for off season. Nice little town! ##### Susan H.
