About this property

Lakefront home with Minnewawa view! Pontoon incl.

The Shamrock House is ready to host your family vacation! Located in McGregor, MN on the main part of Lake Minnewawa, the home boasts loads of options for fun and entertainment!

Shamrock House is located on a double lot with plenty of space for outdoor games and spending time in the sun! While outside, take advantage of grilling some of those delicious fish you just caught or a tasty steak! Roast some hotdogs or make s’mores on one of the 2 firepit: one in the yard and the other on the lake facing patio.
McGregor has been noted to have some of the clearest sky views in Minnesota! Take a stroll on out from the walk-out on to the patio for star gazing or perhaps be lucky to catch a magnificent show of the Northern Lights!

Great fishing is just outside the door! Lake Minnewawa is 2,355 acres with an average depth of eight feet and the greatest depth is 21 feet. Fishers are welcome at all times of year! A variety of species are found including bass, northern pike, walleye, crappie, sunfish, and perch. With a few options of public access, you can tie your boat up to our private dock. Or take advantage of the pontoon that is included in the rental, you just have to provide the fuel.

If fishing isn’t your thing, take advantage of swimming in the lake and jumping from or relaxing on the dock! You may take part in many different water sports such as skiing, tubing, floating, kayaking, or even a leisurely boat ride.

Perhaps you're looking to hunt... Come and take your chance at a trophy sized buck! Or maybe a large black bear! There are lots of waterfowl species to hunt. Who doesn't like walking through the woods waiting for that grouse to appear? Not to mention, the shooting range for practice!

Looking for a bit more outside of the property? Minnesota National Golf Course is just a short car ride and offers 9 or 18 hole golf as well as many food options! There are several restaurants and bars nearby! Bann’s Bar is accessible by boat as well as by land and is a short trip either way! Hiking, atv’s, or snowmobiles more to your liking? There are plenty of trails near Shamrock House for all! Savannah State Park and Rice Lake National Wildlife Refuge (great for bird watching!), just to name a couple. There are also several other lakes in the area to visit. You could also head out and take the scenic 65 route while visiting our home.

So many things to do! What are you waiting for?

Wonderful Place, Excellent View and Location

Ours was a family visit, and the property was perfect for it. We stayed for a week and had no problems or unanswered questions when they arose. The property owners were very responsive and helpful. We have stayed at 3 different properties on Lake Minnewawa and this was by far the best one. Beautiful views and excellent amenities, thank you for giving us such a great trip to remember.

Perfect summer lake vacation

Our first visit to Minnesota and wow this place was perfect! They thought of every detail and everything that you could ever need is at the house. The beds are comfortable, the house cool, and the water hot. The deck has a perfect view of the lake and the fire pit overlooks this same area. The dock is private and great fishing. We caught multiple fish with the provided fishing poles and boat. Would absolutely recommend this place to everyone. 10/10

Fantastic experience

We rented the property to be near family for a wedding. This property is conveniently located near many activities and experiences in the surrounding areas. It had the right amount of space and extras to ensure we had a great time. The pontoon included in the rental was a fantastic extra for us. If the opportunity comes up again for us to be in the area, we wouldn't hesitate in renting again.

Great lake home on a beautiful lake

Our family enjoyed our stay at this well-appointed lake home on a beautiful lake. The home was very clean and and spacious. All the necessary amenities were included. We especially loved the pontoon for lazy cruises around the lake. Adequate dock space for our own boat as well. The screen porch was a favorite spot on our dreary weather day.

Wonderful, relaxing mini-vacation! Pontoon included!

Absolutely wonderful, only problem for us was lack of bathrooms on both floors. My mother is 94, myself 76 so it made stairs for bathroom needs difficult. A sleeper sofa would have solved our problem. The pontoon was a huge success and we caught fish! I think our hosts thought of everything! Couldn’t have asked for more! My grandsons loved the fishing and use of a pontoon

All the comforts of home.

This was a beautiful home and had all the touches to make it nice and cozy. The host checked in on us a few times, since we had a winter storm of 16+ inches of snow. The view of the lake was breathtaking. Would recommend this property to family and friends.

Wedding stay

This property is very clean! My family and I came up for a wedding but we would have rather stayed at the cabin. It would have been nice if everybody was able to stay at the cabin but the rules stated only four overnight guests. Overall, loved the property and the lake.
