Great stay at Maple Lake!
I have never been to MN before but a friend's wedding brought me out. We considered a hotel but decided to rent this amazing cabin. The cabin exceeded expectations and we are picky. Owner's attention to detail was amazing. The home is beautiful, functional, great view to a clear lake that was the perfect temp for some record heat! My family is from PA and we usually go to OBX annually. None of those rentals included the amenities and level of stuff to keep the whole family entertained. I can't recommend this place enough, it's stellar. If I ever get the chance to come back to MN in the summer I would absolutely rent this cabin again if available. There's a reason it's all 5 star reviews.

Great place to stay with kids. The outdoor space is amazing, lots of things to keep the kids entertained. Everything you need to enjoy your stay is provided. Inside is very clean and the views from the living and kitchen area as if you were outside. Highly recommend.

Loved it!
Cabin was absolutely perfect for our family of 5, and Erica went above and beyond to accommodate us. Our kids (ages 6 and 3) had the best week with the sandy beach, water toys and even the cabin stocked with kid items. Can’t wait to rent again!

Amazing Family Trip
We stayed the week with two families and a variety of aged kids! It was perfect for all! The cabin was so cute and had everything we needed and more. The beach was perfect for swimming and all the water toys were so fun! Communication with the owners was easy and they were so helpful. We hope to visit again!

Best family spot!
We absolutely loved our vacation at this house! We are a family of 5 with kids between the ages 3-6. We enjoyed using the water toys, beach, and inside toys! The beds were comfortable after a busy day outside! We plan to return in the future!

Most amazing stay!!
Our stay at Maple Lake was no short of perfection. We had everything we needed for our long trip. We loved it so much we extended our trip for another month which was seamless with the owners. The home itself was beautiful and the perfect place for some rest and relaxation. Was disappointed when our trip ended. Hoping to have an extended stay again next year!! Thank you guys again!!

Perfect vacation spot
Eric and Erika are the consummate hosts. The cabin was spotless and well stocked and everything was in great working condition. They go out of their way to make it an effortless time for their guests. Maple Lake is a delightful, small lake, close to everything and within commuting distance to the Twin Cities. We have stayed here before and hope to return to this property. It was delightful.

Wonderful Family Getaway
Erika’s rental property is a great combination of lake home/cabin. Bedding is comfortable and a nice view with big windows. It is supplied with everything you need to enjoy family cooking and outdoor family playing. The water toys, lily pad, and kayaks were great fun. You can rent a boat from near by.... but rent EARLY. The house with one bathroom is tight so if you have several “high maintenance “ adults/teenagers that may be tricky. We found it fine because we wanted the lake house experience... just basically needed our swimsuits. Erika was easy to work with and so friendly. This is a great rental for people with younger kids because It had a nice outdoor space, easy access to the water with a sandy beach. Definitely should be on you list for a lake experience.

Beautiful home, beautiful beach, beautiful lake
Trust the reviews when people say the owner has everything you will need. Yes, we even found the waffle maker. Also it was nice to wash and dry clothes. They have plenty of lifejackets, not the crappy orange ones, but good ones and plenty of water toys. The beach area is nice and big with a nice Sandy bottom. Location is great, plenty of privacy. Thanks Erika, we will be back!

Perfect home away from home
We had a wonderful week here! The house was clean and stocked with games for all ages, water and beach toys, comfortable furniture, lots of towels and everything we needed. It really felt like we were in a home rather than a rental property. The lake was warm and clear with lots of fish to see and catch. The view from the house was amazing. Erika was very helpful before, during and even after our stay. She even left ingredients for smores which was an added bonus! We definitely hope to stay again during our next visit to MN!

This a beautiful property. All we had to do was show up and relax. The “cabin” was clean, updated and well stocked. The owners have gone out of their way to make sure it will be an exceptional experience. We would have loved to stay another week and hope to return next year.

Great beach; excellent interior; fully stocked
We were thoroughly impressed with our stay at this property. Our 5 kids had so much to do thanks to all the equipment at the house. Kayaks, paddle boards, water & lawn toys and more. They were out on the Lilly Pad multiple times a day. We were delighted to see the care that was given to the interior and how fresh & open the main area is. The interior was as stocked as the outdoor equipment. The main kitchen / dining / living area with the view of the lake & beach is incredible. The house is not on the largest section of the lake, so when that section of the lake was choppy the beach where this house is was calm. Caught a few bass on the lake near the house from a boat & one in the lake that has a hook in it's mouth. Owner met us there and showed us around & answered our questions. It was a truly wonderful stay.
