Lake life is Calling ***2024 update***. We are currently undergoing an extensive landscaping project for the lakeside yard, we are adding steps/ grading for better accessibility down to lake, a boat house with above deck, firepit area above/ behind the boathouse. Photos will be updated once this Hardscape is mostly completed in the spring. Plantings will be ongoing throughout the summer and years to some with a focus on native and lake health. Fenced area has been removed permanently. 1 hr from the Twin Cities (give or take 15m). Our house is located on Big Lake, part of 3 refreshing lakes- Church Pine (170 acre), Round lake (60-80 Acres), and our Big Lake ( 245 acres). 2 boat landings, a underpass, and a chanel so pontoons and smaller boats can cruise all 3 lakes water levels permitting.When the season permits, go for a swim, fish, relax, float, kayak, 20' lily pad, or canoe. Lots of games and puzzles. Shop the boutiques of Osceola or enjoy the falls, downhill ski or adventure park at Trollhaugen, Check out Taylors Falls ferry or 'pothole' Interstate Park. Fisherman often cruise our lakes with a popular route past our dock.1 king bed and with a master bath, 2nd upper bed has queen bed. 1st floor bedrooms 1 has a Queen bed other with a twin over full bunk bed . Full size Pull Out in basement (sorry but not too comfortable). Our living room sofa is often a hit as it can comfortably fit 4-7 sprawled out adults. LOTS of local ordinances (Laws). Polk County restricts our sleeping accommodations to 8 persons max regardless of age (no exception) and the number of humans allowed on our premises. We maintain a zero tolerance for violations of any laws on our property, including laws put into effect after booking. We are a nature friendly lot so excuse our exterior spiderwebs and non grass yard. We do routine exterior cleanings in the spring and a few times mid summer. We try to balance human presence with critters of nature. I spend a bit of time maintaining our sandy swimming area to minimize the weeds in an eco friendly manner.
