About this house rental

Escape to the lake to relax and recharge!! Only 35 minutes from downtown Minneapolis and less than an hour from the Mall of America, this is the perfect place for a getaway. Located In a darling beach community, the house is directly across the street from the lake with amazing views and a private dock (in the summer). Enjoy the brilliant colors of the sunsets, bonfires and everything lake life has to offer. Beautiful fall colors and plenty of winter fun as well…ice fishing, snow shoeing etc. Bring your snowmobile if you wish. The fishing is amazing any time of year.

The lake home is in the perfect location. It has an “up north” feel without the long drive. Our 1700sf lake home has a fun beach vibe. It’s cozy, but open and airy and loaded with amenities.

The home has 3 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms.The master bedroom is on the top floor and has a king size bed and 3/4 bathroom. The sectional sofa is on the main level and there are 2 bedrooms downstairs each with a queen bed. There is also a 3/4 bathroom on the lower level.

The house has a smart TV on the main level and two other smaller TV’s with DVD players and tons of movies. Wi-Fi is included and we have a small desk if you need to get some work done.

The lower level has a foosball table, full size Pac-Man game and dart board. There are also board games, puzzles, cribbage and cards. Even if it’s raining (or snowing) you won’t be bored!!

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to create amazing meals. Pots and pans, crock pot, air fryer, toaster coffee maker, microwave, blender, dishes, utensils and much more. There is not a dishwasher, so you will have to wash dishes the old fashioned way. We also have a gas grill outside on the back deck. If you forget something, the General Store is right up the street or grocery store within 10 minutes.

If you’re not in the mood to cook, there are some incredible restaurants nearby. Smokey’s BBQ is within a mile…a nice walk if you’re in the mood, Acapulco Mexican is 11 minutes away and Maxx Bar & Grill is also 11 minutes away among others.

There are 2 kayaks and a paddle boat for your use. There are life jackets (required) and misc. rafts/noodles. Bring your boat if you wish. The public launch is right across the street. There is plenty of space to park your trailer and cars in the yard. We do have a pontoon as an option to rent at an additional cost. There is some basic fishing gear for your use as well. (May require a MN license)



Coon lake is located in Anoka County. It is 1,481 acres and is approximately 27 feet deep at its deepest point. When fishing, anglers can expect to catch a variety of fish including bluegill, sunfish, bass, northern pike, walleye, crappie and perch.

This lake house is a great place for families to spend quality time together making memories.

Great stay. Very clean. Everything was well equipped with what we needed! The pontoon was an added plus. Great lake. Matt and Kat were great to deal with and very responsive. I would highly recommend.

We knew the cabin was across the street from the lake, but we were disappointed to realize there was nowhere to sit by the water other than on the dock or the pontoon boat.The kitchen counters had crumbs all over, the drawers are very messy with the cutlery tray in need of cleaning and the refrigerator had not been cleaned. The kitchen cupboards really need to be cleaned, and the cookware needs to be updated with a few everyday items instead of crammed with so much junk. There was plenty of paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, spices.There were plenty of towels and beach towels. The beds were tolerable however the pillows need updating. My king-sized pillow was covered with a standard pillowcase and so part of the pillow was sticking out. The shower in the master bedroom on the second floor has very little water pressure, so we had to go in the basement to take our showers.We enjoyed having a fire in the back of the house at night. We were able to go for walks in the morning. The neighborhood is quiet. Everyone had fun playing foosball at night.

We’ve stayed at a few lake houses in a few different states, and this was hands down the BEST! Our hosts took care of everything. Matt went out of his way in his day off to teach us how to use the pontoon! The central air was perfect for hot summer days and nights! The kitchen was fully stocked with essentials for cooking in house. The porch and living room views of the lake were beautiful! They even provided snacks! So thoughtful and lovely!

3 stars max, place was dirty ceiling tile in main bath was falling down, toilet rings present. We brought our pontoon boat which we could not leave at dock. Water too shalllow and no good place to secure it properly. The green outdoor carpet in the kitchen was totally disgusting. I would not recommend staying here.
