The perfect get away
The house was exactly what we needed as a group of women just looking to get away. Comfortable beds, lots of games to play and a well stocked kitchen. Communication with the owners was perfect. We can't wait to come back when it's warmer and enjoy the lake and fire pit!

A Great Weekend Stay
I have relatives down the road from this VRBO so I booked it for my bachelorette party to have a relaxing girls weekend on the lake. The house was spacious, had everything we needed, and the beds and pillows were comfortable. We enjoyed being able to take the kayaks and paddle boat out! We also loved sitting on the large deck with the table top fire pit. Owners had great communication and were very pleasant to work with. I would stay here again!

Beautiful lake with loons!
Enjoyed our stay on Sand Lake near Moose Lake. The cabin is roomy with many screens and a large dining table. We spent time on the lake, on the deck and at the dining room table playing games. Loved to hear the loons and paddle on the lake!

4th of July week-end
Owners were very responsive with our questions. Well-equipped kitchen. Beautiful view from porch. Nice neighborhood for walking. We appreciated the pickleball gear and nearby courts! We enjoyed the paddleboat (full of water from this year's crazy Minnesota rains - but we were eventually able to drain it and it seemed fairly water tight). Some nice fishing even from the dock.

Great location for us on a lake not far from home but lots of options. Can spend time on the lake, in town at thrift shops, hiking at Jay Cooke, or indoors playing games, doing puzzles, or watching movies.

June stay
The house was fine. The deck needs a power wash, the dock needs to be stained or sealed, we got little flakes of dried wood on our clothes when we sat on the bench. The plastic chairs were all either cracked or had holes. It just looked unkept outside, long weeds, spiderwebs everywhere-old and new. The kayaks were full of bugs and spiderwebs. I know that stuff is outside, but we just expected it to be like the pictures on the VRBO site, and it wasn't.

Rode from property to are UTV trails.
We chose this property for its close proximity to the local ATV trails. The property also has a beautiful view of the lake from the large deck. After clearing some of the cobwebs (which with all the trees and such I assume could be a daily task) we really enjoyed that area. The homes interior was very neat and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. Plenty of area for our group of 8. We brought firewood with and had a campfire almost every evening. The owners were great to communicate with. We would definitely consider this property again if we were to return to the area.

Our Sand Lake Vacation
Kevin and Betty Lou’s Lake house was just what we were looking for, for our family vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Amazing views, nice water for our granddaughters and they also loved the sand area. The home was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Very spacious! I would highly recommend this Lake home to friends and family!
