About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Twin Lakes: Tetonka and Sakatah Dock, Kayaks, Lakeside Firepit.

Beautiful large 6 bedroom corner home with Lake Tetonka access capable of sleeping up to18. The public beach is a 200 yard walk over a wooden bridge that crosses the beginnings of the Cannon River. Close to downtown and to Sakatah State Trail for biking and hiking. Many lakes close by for fishing and boating. Small hometown feel. Also close to largest waterpark in southern Minnesota less than 1 mile away at Kamp Dels. There is a dock, lakeside fire pit, and kayaks available most weekends. We also have a 660 square foot game room above the garage complete with sofa bed, love seat, billiard table, card tables, air hockey, and a 1952 wood rail pinball machine. Bring your fishing gear, swim suits, pool cues, and life jackets and enjoy!

Great Bang for your Buck

We booked this property because it was reasonably priced for the size, and we were pleased to find it had everything we needed and more. The beds were not the most comfortable, and there were a few cobwebs and spiders (to be expected near the lake), but it definitely met our expectations! Would stay again.

Relaxing vacation

Enjoyed this home very much. It has a great living room to sit and visit as well as a game room so we could spread out. Close to the lake, short distance to a swimming beach. Property owner was easy to reach and responded in a timely manner. We had a very relaxing weekend.

Lotsa Room and Amenities!!

Communication with the host was excellent and the spacious five bedroom home provided a great place to have your own space as well gathering places. The garage loft with foosball, billiards, Pac-Man, game table, couches, and a vintage pinball machine was enjoyed by all. An "open" kitchen (ability to use spices and access to all pans/appliances, etc.) was a real plus for our five-day stay which included two nearby family reunions. we would definitely stay here again!

Family Gathering

Our whole family had a great time during our long weekend in this large home by the lake. We enjoyed the fire pit by the dock, the beautiful public beach, the game room above the garage, the gathering places for meals, conversations/games and the space to spread out for sleeping. The long back porch was a special treat, too! Situated in a quiet town on two lakes, not far from the Cities, it was the perfect location.

Wonderful Stay plenty of Room

This place was perfect for our family gathering. Everyone had plenty of room to hang-out . The homeowner was very responsive on any questions that we had. The lake across the street was great for the younger kids in the family to enjoy. We cooked on the grill and sat out on the back deck. The neighborhood was quiet. this was a 5-star rating, don't wait! book this place!

Lots to love about this place

This was not a perfect stay, but it was a great stay. Plenty of space, easy access to the water, outside of fireworks on the 4th it was a quiet place to stay, the game room was super fun, and overall we really enjoyed ourselves. Communication about a couple of issues that came up was great and I bet in short order everyone will be giving this place 5 stars. Good place for one big family like us or a couple of small families. Expect nothing but great things for the relatively new VRBO property.

Nice big house close to the lake.

Four Morgan siblings had a mini reunion back in Southern MN, where our father grew up and we used to vacation every summer 50-60 years ago. Nice big house, close to, but not on, the lake (as the ad seemed to imply). But very happy with our stay. If and when we head back to MN in the future, I would look for this property again, and isn't that the bottom line? And don't worry, the game room does have pool cues, even though the ad says to bring your own. Recommended.

Beautiful spacious plenty of amenities

We stayed four nights. Our rental was excellent. Plenty of towels. The kitchen had everything. We cooked most our meals. There was DVD player w/ TV., a set of board games, pool table, and foosball. A few blocks from two paved trails. The lake was visible from our window. We enjoyed our vacation!

Great house for a family cabin weekend

Overall we loved the house and the area. The back porch was our favorite place to spend time, even in the rain! The game room was great for hanging out and despite the major flooding in the area, we were still able to get out on the lake and enjoy the kayaks. Greg was a fantastic host and was very responsive to my questions throughout the weekend. Our only complaint was that the living room and game room did not have sofa beds as was advertised in the listing so we had less beds than expected.

2023 Sibling Gathering

Ideal location in a smaller community with a Lake view and access. We brought a golf cart and could easily access the entire area and businesses. Our group of senior kids comes from Minnesota, Montana, and California and meet every year at a rental in one of those states. We believe this home was one of our best. The owner was very accommodating and quickly to respond to our inquiries. The home was so roomy and quiet.

Spacious and comfortable vacation home

We felt so badly for the folks dealing with flooding that started during our stay, and hope we contributed a bit to the local businesses. Greg worked with us the entire time. The vacation home was perfect for our family reunion with the many bedrooms and game room over the garage. We spent many hours there and playing board games in the spacious living room after cooking up several meals in the fully equipped kitchen. While we missed many outdoor opportunities--fishing, kayaks, park hikes--due to flooding, we had lots of quality family time. Thanks Greg, and best wishes for you and your family!

Great stay

We had a great time at this home. We drove to a river to float down on tubes which lasted 5 hours. Beautiful day. Sunday a rainy day and played games and had a blast. The home easily accommodated 6 adults using 4 rooms with room to spare. The jacuzzi tub was a lovely benefit. Kitchen if fully stocked for dishes and needed items. The lake was green but that is common for smaller lakes when it’s a hot summer. We wanted to kayak but ran out of Sunny time. The Mexican restaurant in Waterville was delicious! The local bar food was equally original and good. It was perfect for what we wanted. Thank you!

Kato guys

The property and house were very nice. Our only concerns are the downstairs bathroom toilet has issues with backing up without anyone doing anything other than a number one in it. Also, the cabinet above the refrigerator looks like it is going to detach itself from the wall? Everything else was as described and very clean.
