MINNeSTAY* Rum River Resort | Host Thanksgiving

Located on the Anoka Nature Preserve, just a stone’s throw from Rum River, this one acre wooded hideaway is a perfect landing spot for a company retreat or family gathering. Rum River Resort boasts stunning views from nearly every room, and it has no shortage of amenities! Take a dip in the heated indoor pool, warm up in the sauna, or enjoy a movie night in the theater-like entertainment room with its own fireplace. Can’t agree on what to watch? No problem- each bedroom has its own TV, not to mention the other four in the basement game room and bar area!

An impressive kitchen features granite countertops that provide ample space for cooking and prepping meals. Enjoy our signature locally roasted coffee in a cozy breakfast nook that seats 3-4, right off the kitchen. The solid wood dining table holds 14 comfortably, plenty of room for family gatherings or holiday celebrations. Descend the spiral staircase and you’ll find yourself on the ground floor where the Resort gets its name! You’ll love the full sized indoor swimming pool surrounded by large windows, adjacent to an equally long entertainment area with a kitchen sized bar and popcorn machine! Play arcade games, challenge someone to a game of pool, or simply enjoy the views.

When it's time to sleep, you’ll be more than taken care of. Rum River Resort has 9 beds: 3 King, 3 Queen, and 3 Full futons. The master bedroom has a stunning bathroom with a double shower head, as well as access to a pool viewing deck via sliding glass doors. Each bedroom has ample closet space, large plush beds, and sparkling bathrooms just down the hallway.

Architecturally speaking, this home is a delight to the eyes. Exposed brick and wooden ceiling beams contrast with the crisp white of the interior. Vaulted ceilings and large windows give the rooms an elevated feel. But if for some reason you want to leave this beautiful bungalow, you can rent some skates at the Anoka Area Ice Arena or dine at Riverbend Bar and Grill, both a short drive away. In warmer weather, grab the paddle boards from the outdoor garage and head to the Rum River, located a few steps from the back deck.

Book Rum River Resort now for an unparalleled experience. You’ll want to make this place your home away from home!

Our group likes to travel to watch our football team and explore new cities. Our say here was excellent and we really enjoyed how we could all be in the same spaces as there are several large areas to hang out together.

Well laid out for our 4 grown kids, spouses and 3 grandkids
Everything worked, the indoor pool was fantastic! many of us have jobs and it was always easy to find a quiet room to "Teams" or work. A big grocery store is near by, as well as a lot of restaurants as well.

Family retreat
The accomodations were great. The pool and spa were a great hit with the children and adults. The kitchen lacked cooking pot and pans for a group our size. The dishwasher needs repair. The dishes had a film on them after washing and needed to be hand washed and also the drying portion of the cycle did not dry the dishes. The front door was unlocked when we arrived. When we left I could hear the lock and hopefully it was locked. We would stay again.

Exceeded expectations
This is a great property. The house was spacious, clean and inviting. We loved being able to hang out together or spread out throughout the multiple living areas. Comfy furniture and beds. Great dining space with room for everyone. We spent many hours enjoying the pool, which was warm and awesome for the January days! Perfect for our group of friends and small kids. Will recommend to others and would absolutely rent again.

FAMILY WEEKEND HERE WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!
When you pull up to the house you think it's small, but it was huge inside! We have a very large family and it was perfect for a long weekend for us. This is our Christmas gift to our kids and grandkids and it did not disappoint! The pool was a hit and it was a full size pool. The boys loved playing basketball in there and the younger ones loved floating around and playing in the pool with no time limits! We did bring our own floaties to use. Beach towels were provided there. The sauna was a big hit! I loved that the bedrooms upstairs are away from the pool table area, so the boys could play pool into the night and we didn't hear them. 3 1/2 bathrooms were great as that is always needed! We loved that we could put our truck in the garage for the weekend. The house is the last one on that street, so no traffic. They had plenty of extra throw blankets around to use in the comfy recliners when they watched TV upstairs. The bar area was perfect with round tables to play games and puzzles on. Only thing I would say is needed is extra garbage cans downstairs as we like to recycle and keep garbage separate. We also like to wash our dishes, so could have used a dish tray with some dish rags, towels and some scrubbies for the pans. Otherwise they have a dishwasher for use. We just had a lot of pans to clean and loved the big sink. There is Super Target close by if in need of items. Highly recommend this house for a get away! Thanks for a fun weekend!

Great Location
The house was as pictured. The indoor swimming pool was fantastic, as was the games and bar area. Everything was as great, except the kitchen was not stocked very well. There were only two pots and two small frying pans, hardly any cooking utensils. We had to go and buy a couple of pots and a large frying pan and cooking and serving utensils. For such a big house you would expect the kitchen to be fully stocked. Other than the kitchen, the house was great!
