Holiday rentals with a kayak in Chisago County

Had a great stay! Had everything that we needed!

Booked a stay with some friends for a long weekend at the lake and Heidi’s place was absolutely perfect! She was always responsive, and well prepared with everything we needed from towels to basic kitchen utensils and everything in between. The hot tub was a huge perk and we also had fun taking the kayaks out on the lake. Definitely would recommend booking with Heidi for anyone looking for a relaxing escape near the twin cities!

Such an adorable little cabin. We had a great time fishing and having bonfires. My 9 year old caught his first huge catfish off the dock the first night and during the day, we caught smallmouth. Very clean and cozy tiny cabin with everything we needed for some relaxation and fishing. The book selection at the cabin was unexpectedly perfect and such a cool perk. I wish I could’ve read all of them. The beds and linens were very comfortable. We hope to visit again.

Our family loved our stay at this beautiful lake home. Some of our favorites included: All the attention to detail- from skewers & firewood for roasting marshmallows to the delicious smelling bath products to everything you’d need for a great cup of coffee Truly designed for larger families- plenty of beds + seats for everyone The beautiful lake view- we spent most of our time in the backyard The garage with pool and foosball- our adult kids especially enjoyed this feature The decor- we felt right at home in this well designed space The lower level screened in porch- when not outside we were enjoying the view from there- it’s a great spot for morning coffee The accessibility of the lake- it’s quite shallow for a bit (up to knees) which made it easy for dunking. We also enjoyed the kayaks. We had groceries delivered from Walmart (better than the Cub in the area)- would recommend- easy and great to have a stocked fridge b/c you won’t want to leave

Beautiful, well equipped and clean home. Felt right at home and had more amenities than I could have hoped for, esp the kitchen dishes, supplies and appliances.

We stayed here for a girls’ weekend and the house was perfect for us! Modern, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We loved the little lake outside the kitchen window and enjoyed hanging out on both the front and back porches in addition to making s’mores around the fire pit. Beds were comfortable and so were the couches! We loved the big craft table for doing puzzles and playing games. It was close and convenient to Stillwater, too. A really great home for a weekend getaway!

We had the most magical stay at this home! The house itself was absolutely stunning—beautifully decorated, cozy, and everything we could have hoped for to make our holiday perfect. The hosts went above and beyond to make it feel like Christmas. They even left personalized stockings for our kids filled with thoughtful little gifts, which absolutely delighted them! It was such a heartwarming and unexpected touch that made our stay truly special. Thank you for helping us create unforgettable memories. We can’t wait to come back!

Our family truly enjoyed our stay. The weather was a little rainy, but even on the rainy days there was plenty of family fun to be had. And we were able to take advantage of the beautiful moments when the sun did peak out and get out and enjoy the beach and the kayaks and the firepit. It was a perfect getaway!

This home was in a lovely setting. We enjoyed walking around the camp as well as sitting at one of the numerous outdoor tables and watching wildlife and scenery. The Garden House is spacious and was just perfect for our group of four friends for a retreat!

Das Haus war noch schöner als auf den Fotos! Es ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht, und dabei sehr geschmackvoll und gemütlich eingerichtet. Man fühlt sich sofort wohl. Wir wären sehr gerne noch länger geblieben – absolut empfehlenswert!

We loved staying in the St. Francis Cottage! It was so peaceful - we enjoyed both the indoor fireplace and outdoor fire pit. We jad everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The grounds are great for walking and enjoying nature and it was a very short drive to scenic overlooks and downtown Stillwater. It was a perfect getaway!

This place is a magical gem my whole family loves to return to. Thank you kindly for letting us borrow your home!!

This cottage is absolutely gorgeous!! It has so much to offer with a beautiful view on the lake, a hot tub, a fire pit area, a beautiful walking trail, and so much more! It was the perfect place to celebrate a bachelorette weekend and so many amazing memories were made here. The host was very helpful and always answered any questions. The house was stocked with lots of cooking supplies and cleaning products that made it easy to stay there. I hope to be able to come back to this cottage in the future because it was the best weekend!!

The house is gorgeous and exactly as described. The weather was too good during our stay but we enjoyed looking out the windows all day and seeing the animals and birds enjoy the bird houses. We also liked seeing people enjoying themselves on the lake. The house is beautifully decorated and had everything you could ever ask for.

Enjoyed the welcoming by hosts, coziness, peaceful and private location near Half Moon lake. Beautiful sunsets, night sky, and nearby hiking trails we explored. Provides necessary amenities for a very enjoyable stay! Look forward to booking again.

Excellent hosts. Nice location and setup, well maintained. We’ll worth it. Thanks!

The house was incredibly comfortable with multiple outdoor options from the front porch to the back porch, garage with pool table and other games, dock, swing, and fire pit. The beds were all comfortable and there were extra sitting areas inside that made it seamless to have the whole family there for the weekend.

Our stay was absolutely perfect! It was everything we were looking for! The place was exactly what we had imagined and more! The cabin was very cozy and inviting! Thank you heather for the amazing stay!

For a girl that loves architecture, design and the outdoors this house was a dream come true!

Our stay at Keith’s was great! Views of the water were wonderful. Check in was easy with the keypad, kitchen was well stocked, Keith was quick to respond when we couldn’t find things or needed help with the grill. As noted in the pictures and his description, one of the bedrooms does not have a door on it, and the walls don’t go all the way up to the ceiling. It gets all the noise of the living room/kitchen but it worked for us. We loved the kayaks and Keith even had a child life jacket! The water quality in the lake varied - not as appealing as I was hoping for swimming on our first two days but we had fun kayaking around the lake and after it rained on our last night, the water was much clearer the day we checked out. Note that part of check out is put all towels and sheets into the washer and start the washer. I don’t love that because inevitably I realize one has been forgotten and then have to figure out how to stop the cycle and add an item, but this is minor. Great stay!

We’ve rented Danielle’s lake house for 3 years in a row. The house is beautiful and has plenty of room for all our family and friends. The property is private with no close neighbors so the dogs can run free and we don’t have to worry about them going too far. You get to catch the most beautiful sunsets. This is our favorite lake house to rent for a peaceful long weekend filled with lots of friends and family.

The Backwater was an amazing location for our girls' getaway. We love the water and the outdoors, and the cabin provided the perfect combination of natural surroundings and creature comforts. Most of the weekend was spent on the screened-in porch, listening to the birds and frogs. There are multiple comfortable and beautifully decorated indoor and outdoor gathering spaces; we needed more time to enjoy them all! The location is quiet and peaceful, and we even enjoyed watching a fawn walk through the yard. The house is beautifully decorated with unique and interesting items that serve as conversation starters. We even found a circus book containing pictures of our family's old circus posters from years ago! The scavenger hunt was great fun, but we didn't manage to find everything on the list. Sarah is an amazing host. She responded to questions quickly and provided everything that we needed. The kitchen is well-stocked. It's also a short drive to town for any forgotten items.

We love this cabin and the relaxed, peaceful setting. We come back yearly to kayak and enjoy the peace and quiet. Already can’t wait to come again.
