Pillow Kerfunkle

My Brother and I had a lovely time. Larry indicated that a pillow was missing from the day bed. Neither my Brother or myself removed any pillows from the property. Unfortunately, we did not count the pillows when we arrived.

Great Stay

The house was very clean and nice. The owner Larry was extremely helpful and nice. On our last day there, we had boat trouble. Larry brought out his tools and was helping us get everything fixed. We had a great stay.

Cozy MIL Quarters at the Lake

Larry was extremely accommodating. There were a couple of items that needed to be fixed throughout my 2 week stay, and Larry had them fixed immediately. It is a quiet, serene location with direct access to the lake. Highly recommend!

Exactly What We Were Looking For

Great communication with owner. He made sure we had everything we needed. Location was wonderful. Beautiful view of the lake. Pleasantly surprised by the roominess. Target was just a few minute drive for groceries/snacks. I was worried that my kids were too noisy during their nightly Monopoly games but owner said we did not disturb him at all. If you are looking for a "rustic" hotel alternative, this is your place.

Minnesota living at its finest

This place was a wonderful respite to an already stressful 2022. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind and reset. If you’re looking for place to get away and unwind, this is the place

A little German away

We celebrated my husband's 50th birthday by being someplace close to home; but not too close. My husband enjoyed fishing off the dock and relaxing on the deck with a beautiful view of the lake.

Spectacular view and space

Lovely spacious lake view apt, overlooking lake, attached to the house, but sufficiently private with access to the deck and close to great hiking area, Baker Reserve, restaurants and short easy drive from city. The kitchen was well stocked with ample kitchen table and dining table on deck as well. The one improvement would be a new mattress in the bedroom. However the mattress on the trundle bed was very comfortable.

Larry was an excellent host. He greeted us upon arrival and departure. And he offered great recommendations for dining in the area. And we really enjoyed the great view from the large deck.

Great break at the lake!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Lake Independence. Larry had a beautiful bouquet of flowers on the kitchen table upon our arrival. The apartment had everything we needed. We spent a lot of time down by the lake watching the boats and had an Eagle fly over several times. We would recommend the property for anyone that wants time away from the cities.

Relaxing lake-side stay

Clean, tidy, and cozy place to stay with a great view of the lake. Just a short walk to lots of trails (paved & unpaved) to get outdoors for a short or long walk; then able to return to impressively comfy recliners to relax and watch the birds (and TV). Would recommend for both sunny & rainy/snowy days. Larry was super easy to work with.

We feel rejuvenated and relaxed after spending a week at this property. It was just as described. The view of the lake was even better than I imagined from the pictures. The location is great.

A very pleasant stay

My wife and I were looking for a place nearby with nice accommodations and lake view to celebrate her birthday for a couple of days. We have been hesitant in the past to rent a property that isn’t a house or private cabin, concerned that noise might be a problem, but on this occasion there was nothing to worry about. The large one-bedroom not only had all the comforts of home, but also offered more peace and quiet than we could have hoped for. Larry was kind enough to greet us upon our arrival, and was available if we had any problems or questions. We loved the recliners and flat screen T.V.’s (since it rained some during our stay) and the kitchen was very homey with every thing we needed. The large windows and deck offer a beautiful view of the lake, and some very nice walking trails are nearby that lead to a large park and boat launch area. We enjoyed the nearby restaurant/bar called “Iron Exchange” and a great little cafe called the Blackwater cafe. Even though we had only been there a couple of nights, it felt like we had a long vacation by the time we left, and we look forward to another stay in the future.
