The house was lovely and comfortable, with enough space for all. Needs a few minor repairs. Hot tub could have been cleaner.The lake was beautiful, kept everyone busy with swimming and fishing and tubing. The Grandkids didn't want to get out of the lake. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would consider this place again.
Upon arrival, there was a big pile of the last guestsâ garbage in the driveway. It made the front of the house smell and brought a ton of flies. At some point in our stay, an animal got into the garbage and it ended up scattered around the front yard. The front door was broken and we were given the wrong code to the front door. There were birds in cages at the property that we were not told about. They didnât bother me much, but would have been nice to know about beforehand. The hot tub was nice, but it was dirty- had floating dirt and leaves and a musty smell. The dishwasher did not work also, but she told us about that upon our arrival. The host stopped by to feed the birds at one point. The host was communicative and kind during our stay which is why we gave 3 stars. We felt like they were maybe a little unprepared for us. The property overall was nice and in a great location- would have given 5 stars if we felt they were more prepared for our arrival.
The property was exactly as listed. Plenty of gathering spaces and room for all. We loved the covered front porch with propane firepit and plenty of cozy chairs for the rainy days. Very nice hot tub and firepit for star gazing. The lake is extremely clear, we found a nice sandy beach and caught lots of fish. Many great memories were made here. Kim is an extremely proactive and friendly host.
We stayed here last year for the same weekend and were expecting the same wonderful experience. Unfortunately, things have gone downhill. All are fixable problems but should be addressed.
First, there were two parakeets in a cage when we arrived. This was not in the listing, and three of our group members have a bird phobia. The owners did remove the birds after our request. Secondly, the owners stayed next door and used the dock while some members of our group were also using it. Not a big deal, but it was a little awkward. Finally, the overall place could use a deep clean.
On a positive note, the owners were very kind, and the place is spread out in a very comfortable and relaxing manner. It was perfect for our mother/daughter trip!
We had a fantastic week on Six Lake at our host's property. Excellent location where we had family meals, made smores at the fireplace, visited into the moonlit night, caught dozens of fish from the dock, kayaked and swam in a beautiful lake, watched birds - 22 different species in the area. This exceeded our expectations!
This was a great spot for family members to gather, with multiple sitting areas inside and out, and a kitchen with the space and tools needed for multiple cooks! We enjoyed the quiet lake time and beautiful birdsong.
We were surprised to find two parakeets in the house, and at times they were quite noisy. I would have expected a note about this in the listing.
We were all in town for a family wedding near Detroit Lakes and found this wonderful house that would allow us to stay in one location together. The home is very comfortable with good beds, showers, and furniture. There are three indoor seating areas so we could gather or separate as desired. The outdoor settings are really lovely and the 2 fire pits were great. The gift of the makings for S'mores was particularly appreciated by the boys. However, the most impressive part was the communication with the host. She wasn't in town, but was immediately available by text and has very kind neighbors who helped get us a hair dryer on the wedding day. The location is just beautiful, parking was ample, and we found everything we needed. We all agreed we would definitely stay here again.
This was the perfect place for our family to spend Christmas all together. The owner had the home beautifully decorated for Christmas. The kitchen is wonderful for our large group. Plenty of utensils and love the double oven! Thank you for helping us create beautiful memories for the children!
This cabin was surrounded by lots of trees and it's stunning! Kim (the owner) was amazing and super flexible with us. Highly recommend for a cozy weekend in or a beautiful home to bring your friends to!
