Beautiful Newly Renovated 3 BR Mille Lacs Lakeside Cottage

Didn’t use amenities!! The only strange thing was there wasn’t a House Rules book stating how to navigate the house! There wasn’t any firewood for the wood burning fireplace which would have been nice for Christmas Eve, if we needed to get our own, it would’ve been good to know that?! There were not any exit rules as to bedding, garbage, etc!!!!!!! Otherwise no complaints!

This is the second time staying at this rental. This place is very clean and the listing is accurate. Easy in, great parking, and very comfortable space. There are 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The only suggestion I have is to add a tv or 2 to the bedrooms for families or those who just want some private space

The place was excellent. We just ate for a quick overnight to fish in the area so didn't really experience much else. My only minor beef was there was a bunch of flies, but we got rid of them quickly. Great communication with the landlord and no issues whatsoever.

I expected much more from this property. While the renovation looks good in photos, it was completed to a very low standard. Upon arrival, the cleanliness was lacking—there were dead bugs in the windows, piles of leaves blocking the sliding glass doors and dirty wood floors. The worst part: the heating and AC units are the cheap motel variety that loudly cycle on and off all night, disrupting everyone’s sleep.Families should beware of some major safety oversights. The railing at the top of the stairs has too large of a gap under the bottom rail, making it unsafe for young children. Additionally, the microwave is positioned on floor level—a hazard for kids and an inconvenience for adults.To make matters worse, the booking process was awful. The charge on my credit card came from an entirely different company than I was expecting for an unexpected amount. When I researched that company name, it stated they were permanently closed. Fearing fraud, I disputed the charge and received an angry response from the operator. They promised to fix the issue but never followed through. When I finally received an invoice – it was from yet another entity. Of course, the check-in details came from a different enitity – neither of which matched the person I was speaking to. Wouldn’t you be worried that you were being scammed?We had an okay stay, but a cleaner home and clear instructions of what to expect would have made a world of difference.
