About this house rental

Karinall Estate is a peaceful property with 300 feet of lakeshore. It is a great setting for a family reunion, friends getaway, small wedding or even a corporate retreat. We can take care of the details for you. Karinall estate is located on Wymer Lake which is two miles south of Frazee, MN. Karinall is just 12 miles east of Detroit Lakes, 15 miles west of Perham, and 60 miles east from Fargo, ND. Because it is just 1.5 miles from Hwy 10, it is a great jumping off point for a snowmobile trip, ice fishing extravaganza, widows hunting retreat or anything else you can imagine. For the holidays, if you need a bigger house for your growing family, our home is perfect. Karinall is a great place to host your wedding. Check out the pictures from Mike and Chelsea's wedding.

Get lost in this 9,400 sq foot home with a sprawling deck. This year-round paradise property offers fishing, puzzles, books galore, sunning on the dock, ice fishing, bird watching, canoeing, amazing sunsets, and so much more. It includes 8 bedrooms, 18 beds (sleep 24), 6 bathrooms, and several reading nooks to enjoy. Also, a large 16'x20' room overlooking the lakeside grounds offers the ideal space for a business meeting, scrapbooking or yoga retreat. Karinall features a hot tub/exercise room, a pool table for entertainment, even an atrium with live trees, a waterfall and bistro tables to visit or enjoy a cup of coffee. A walk-out patio overlooks the gentle slope to the lake with steps that wind down to the lake. The beach is sand with some shallow weeds that will wear away with more use. The water deepens gradually. It is about chest high at the end of the dock. Each of the rooms in Karinall are themed and named after a classic book.

At the end of the day toast a marshmallow over the fire pit and make a S’more! Have a piano player in the group? Gather around and sing along. Grab a glass of wine or a cup of hot chocolate and nestle around one of two stone fireplaces and reminisce with family, friends or co-works.

The living space is equipped with all your needs. We include all quality bedding, bathroom towels, all cookware, silverware, plates, cups, a Keurig, coffee pot, dishwasher, microwave, ovens, refrigerators, crockpots, a roaster, and a grill. All you need to do is bring food, beverages, and any personal products you may need. Remember to bring your favorite movies and watch them while you enjoy some popcorn (provided) in our theater for a big-screen experience! And WIFI, of course.

Sleep well on high thread count linens, fluffy pillows, enjoy plush towels, and cozy throws for your stay. We even provide beach towels in the lower foyer for the summer months! There are life jackets as well. NOTE: there is no public access on Wymer Lake.

We recommend seeing the World’s Largest Turkey. It is on your way to Frazee, which is just 5 quick minutes away. Frazee also has a grocery store, drug store, liquor store, Ketter's Meat Market, and a gas station/convenience store. Or head to Vergas and see the World’s Largest Loon. Vergas has great shopping and restaurants too.

Let us take care of the details of making a reservation to celebrate that special occasion. One of my personal favorites is Spanky’s Stone Hearth which is three miles away. It offers fine dining. Everything on the menu is decadent and there is an extensive wine list. At Spanky’s sit by one of the stone fireplaces or in a booth overlooking Rose Lake. Golf trip in order? Let us make a tee time at one of our local golf courses. Want a private yoga class, we can arrange that too. Kari lives on Wymer Lake and is a Yoga instructor who trained in Guatemala. We also invite you to relax, rejuvenate and unwind to a soothing massage during your stay. We’ve partnered with a talented certified massage therapist who will travel to the Karinall Estate (pre-booking required).


Don’t feel like cooking after a day on the water or ice? Visit one of the area’s “must try” restaurants. Zorbaz is a Minnesota favorite for Mexican or pizza. It is casual dining. Zorbaz is just a 15-minute drive to the east or west. Or if you are in the mood for burgers or a Bloody Mary, try out Billy’s Bar in Vergas. Skal is great too. There are many more amazing restaurants nearby, just let me know what you're in the mood for and I can give you a few recommendations. If you want food catered in or would like me to come to cook for you at Karinall, just ask about my availability and menu.

Winter is a great time for vacationing in the area. Enjoy snowshoeing or cross-country skiing around Wymer Lake. There are also endless miles of snowmobile trails. Detroit Mountain is 15 minutes away if you want to hit the slopes for some downhill skiing, snowboarding or tubing. They have biking and hiking trails in the summer months.

When you first arrive at Karinall, I (Heather) will be there to greet you and help you get acquainted with the property. You can call or text me anytime with questions. Marlys (The property owner) stays in the three bedroom apartment above the garage, which has a separate entrance. She is a spunky lady with a great sense of humor. You will love her. She can also answer any questions you may have. We can’t wait for you to visit Karinall Estates. It will be something you and your family or friends will want to make an annual event.

8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2024
The property is very unique and beautiful. Each room has its own ambience and there are plenty of games and toys for all ages. We enjoyed and used all of the 8 bedrooms. We met both the owner Marlys and the manager, Heather. They were both very helpful, hospitable, and friendly. We found the kitchen to be well stocked, however the dishes and glasses were not kid friendly. I was surprised to find two refrigerators, which we definitely took advantage of! The electricity went out three times at night during our stay, once because of a bad storm. That made for some hot and stuffy nights! There were several items that were either broken or not working, like the BBQ, (which Heather helped to ignite), the garbage disposal, which stopped working towards the end of our stay, the top dish rack of the dishwasher, and the elliptical, which needed batteries and Heather supplied them. The kitchen sink also backed up during our last day there. We enjoyed kayaking, swimming, paddleboarding, pontooning, and fishing on the lake. Swimming was marginal, because there was no beach for children. The stairs were a challenge for the little ones, both inside the house and down to the dock. We learned that we should wear water shoes, because the water near the dock was full of tall weeds, and my husband discovered a leech between his toes after being in the water. Also, my grandson found a broken glass in the lake. Overall, our family had a great time, despite some of the challenges we faced.

Really enjoyed Karinall Estate. Huge home with great access to and view of the lake. The home has several fun amenities that are not listed in VRBO, but Heather, the point of contact was awesome at anwering these. Lilypad, paddleboat, paddleboards, kayaks were all in stock and in good shape. Great deck and outside chairs made for enjoyable mornings and evenings. Great view of the sunset every night! Pontoon is also available from Heather to be rented. There isn't a hot tub, which it sounds like has been attempted to update in VRBO, but it still ends up listed. We had 3 families with several kids, everyone had their own bed. Beds were very comfortable and the rooms were too! Kitchen is large, great for cooking. Lots of room for meal seating at the 3 dining rooms tables and outdoor table. Great firepit and great outdoor seating on the hill leading down to the lake. Overall great place! We hope to come back again!

We had most of our family up for a fun week long vacation with my brother and his family at Little Pine Lake….we had a blast! The house was definitely big enough to handle all of us! Location was great! Spanky’s and Zorba’s are great places to eat!
