Beautiful home with lots of space

We had a large party of people coming to MN for a family event. We had an additional person join, which Mark quickly helped get on the list. The home is beautiful and had room for all of us! The lake can be seen from every room in the house which made every bedroom a top choice! Now to go back when we have more time to spend enjoying the lake!

Sandy beach front

The good: Overall a good spot for a few families to share - great small beach along lake & grassy knoll for lounging. The not so great: Felt overpriced for the offering. Fairly sparse inside and out - surprised there were no games whatsoever. Wish we had known that we needed to bring a ball to play with or a deck of cards. Also kind of absurd to rent out a lake house and not provide beach towels whatsoever. At the end, you’re expected to do fairly extensive checkout clean while still paying cleaning fee. Overall totally fine, just wouldn’t go there again for the price.

Wonderful stay!

My family and I (8 adults, 2 teens) enjoyed our stay at this lovely lake house. The pedal boat and kayaks were great amenities and we all enjoyed exploring the lake. The house was very clean and the kitchen had all that we needed to prepare our meals. The location is less than an hour drive from the Twin Cities, yet the peaceful surroundings makes one feel as though one is far from the hustle and bustle of the cities....just what the family needed, indeed.

Yearly Vacation for Extended Family

This was a great place for our children, grandchildren, and us to stay. The bunk bedroom was fun for all six of the cousins to sleep and giggle. I particularly liked the shaded deck in the late afternoon. It allowed the adults to converse and still keep an eye on the children playing in the water. Remember to bring bar soap and shampoo.

Great family time!

We had a wonderful week in this large home on the lake. The kids swam and fished, and we all had space to do all we wanted to do. The kitchen was well supplied , and the bedrooms were spacious. The beach was great, and being on the point allowed us some privacy. There was room for lawn games, and plenty of parking. We will be back!

Awesome home, great location

Our family of five stayed in the home over the 4th of July. Very nice yet comfortable home with plenty of usable space. Our kids spent hours on the beach and enjoyed using the kayaks that were available. Super convenient from Twin Cities, and a neat town in Lindström. Would definitely do it again.

Great vacation home

We had a great time at this property. It is very private and there is plenty of room. We went swimming, fishing, and kayaking. We also drove to the nearby state park which had a very cool “pothole park” formed by glaciers. There are places to rent kayaks there and go down the river. On the Wisconsin side of that state park there is a nice little beach. There are a lot of fun cafes and shops in that area too

Lake Home in Lindstrom

The location of this property is fantastic, located at the end of a peninsula - in town, near Taylor's Falls, etc. Communication with the property owner and the property manager could not have been better!! Overall, the home is very nice. The living room and dining area were great for our family with very comfortable furniture. The beds were also very comfortable. There were just a few things that prompted the overall 4 rating versus a 5 rating. (If I could, I would give it a 4.5!) The beginning of the dock was approximately 10 feet from shore, accessible via two wood planks suspended across concrete blocks. This created a safety hazard when our 3 year old granddaughter wanted to go on the dock; as well as Grandpa who was slowed due to recent knee surgery. The property could benefit from a good exterior cleaning and a monthly pest service (I can't say for sure they don't already have one) as there are an awful lot of spiders and bugs around the exterior of the house, on the deck, etc. And just a few small touches on the inside of the house could push the rating to a 5 - such as there were no wash cloths in any of the bathrooms, and the listing incorrectly indicated there were children's games. But, overall - we had a very nice stay!

Family vacation 2023

We needed a property for our entire family, fifteen total, and this met our expectations for the amount of space, the room arrangements and the supplies available. It was wonderful to have the four bathrooms. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, utensils, etc. The house was very clean. The bumpers on the short side of the dock were perfect for our boat and the option to tie off to the dock was a great benefit. Our grandkids and our entire family really enjoyed the beach area and spent a lot of time in the water. The deck/patio was spacious enough for all of us to be on and enjoy time together. We would definitely recommend this property.

Good spot for kids!

We had 8 kids and 5 adults. There's plenty of sleeping options: full size beds, bunk beds, futon, trundle bed, moveable beds, etc. Kayaks and paddle boat were a hit. Firepit was nice. Plenty of outdoor seating for meals. Nice sandy beach, not much seaweed, so the kids swam and waded all day. Good for kids of all ages. Kitchen appliances were clean, functional, newer. Clean house. Lake also was good for tubing, fishing, etc. We would stay again if the opportunity arises!

About the host

Hosted by Mark Nowlin

The Doll House on the Point is enjoyed by two families. Two brothers and their families decided they wanted a place for all the kids, cousins, and friends to grow up fishing, swimming, tubing, waterskiing, wake surfing and to spend more time as a family.

Why they chose this property

The lake is very special to our family and it will be to yours as well. Lindstrom is conveniently located only 35 minutes from the Twin Cities metro area yet you feel like you are up north every minute you spend on the lake.

What makes this property unique

Only steps from the beach and water and lake views from every room! 2 kayaks with paddles and a pedal boat are included. Pontoon rentals are available on the lake as well!
