About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Twin Lakes: Tetonka and Sakatah: Dock, Kayaks, Lakeside Firepit. SLEEPS 12-18.

Beautiful large 5 bedroom corner home with Lake Tetonka access capable of sleeping up to18. The public beach is a 200 yard walk over a wooden bridge that crosses the beginnings of the Cannon River. Close to downtown and to Sakatah State Trail for biking and hiking. Many lakes close by for fishing and boating. Small hometown feel. Also close to largest waterpark in southern Minnesota less than 1 mile away at Kamp Dels. There is a dock, lakeside fire pit, and kayaks available most weekends. We also have a 660 square foot game room above the garage complete with sofa bed, love seat, billiard table, card tables, air hockey, and a 1952 wood rail pinball machine. Bring your fishing gear, swim suits, pool cues, and life jackets and enjoy!

Fantastic house, great property Manager too!
First off, the house is wonderful. Huge kitchen, wonderful living room which is a great hang out, and the porches are really nice too. Tons of bedrooms and all of them are really nice. Greg is great to work with. Check in and out was simple. We will definitely stay here again!

Relaxing vacation
Enjoyed this home very much. It has a great living room to sit and visit as well as a game room so we could spread out. Close to the lake, short distance to a swimming beach. Property owner was easy to reach and responded in a timely manner. We had a very relaxing weekend.

Nice big house close to the lake.
Four Morgan siblings had a mini reunion back in Southern MN, where our father grew up and we used to vacation every summer 50-60 years ago. Nice big house, close to, but not on, the lake (as the ad seemed to imply). But very happy with our stay. If and when we head back to MN in the future, I would look for this property again, and isn't that the bottom line? And don't worry, the game room does have pool cues, even though the ad says to bring your own. Recommended.

Nice Family Weekend Getaway
We booked this place for a family wedding and it was in a great location to the venue. There was plenty of room for our extended family to stay. We had 1 issue with the house during our stay, but the owner came over and fixed it promptly. We enjoyed our time in Waterville. We drove to Minneapolis for 1 day and it was a shirt easy drive into the city.

Great house for a family cabin weekend
Overall we loved the house and the area. The back porch was our favorite place to spend time, even in the rain! The game room was great for hanging out and despite the major flooding in the area, we were still able to get out on the lake and enjoy the kayaks. Greg was a fantastic host and was very responsive to my questions throughout the weekend. Our only complaint was that the living room and game room did not have sofa beds as was advertised in the listing so we had less beds than expected.

Communication was excellent with the owner. The home was very comfortable spacious and just had that homey feeling. We had a very busy weekend with the wedding. I wish we had more time to enjoy the home and the neighborhood. This will definitely be our first choice if we are back in the area.

Lotsa Room and Amenities!!
Communication with the host was excellent and the spacious five bedroom home provided a great place to have your own space as well gathering places. The garage loft with foosball, billiards, Pac-Man, game table, couches, and a vintage pinball machine was enjoyed by all. An "open" kitchen (ability to use spices and access to all pans/appliances, etc.) was a real plus for our five-day stay which included two nearby family reunions. we would definitely stay here again!

Family Gathering
Our whole family had a great time during our long weekend in this large home by the lake. We enjoyed the fire pit by the dock, the beautiful public beach, the game room above the garage, the gathering places for meals, conversations/games and the space to spread out for sleeping. The long back porch was a special treat, too! Situated in a quiet town on two lakes, not far from the Cities, it was the perfect location.

Kato guys
The property and house were very nice. Our only concerns are the downstairs bathroom toilet has issues with backing up without anyone doing anything other than a number one in it. Also, the cabinet above the refrigerator looks like it is going to detach itself from the wall? Everything else was as described and very clean.

Wonderful Stay plenty of Room
This place was perfect for our family gathering. Everyone had plenty of room to hang-out . The homeowner was very responsive on any questions that we had. The lake across the street was great for the younger kids in the family to enjoy. We cooked on the grill and sat out on the back deck. The neighborhood was quiet. this was a 5-star rating, don't wait! book this place!

Spacious and comfortable vacation home
We felt so badly for the folks dealing with flooding that started during our stay, and hope we contributed a bit to the local businesses. Greg worked with us the entire time. The vacation home was perfect for our family reunion with the many bedrooms and game room over the garage. We spent many hours there and playing board games in the spacious living room after cooking up several meals in the fully equipped kitchen. While we missed many outdoor opportunities--fishing, kayaks, park hikes--due to flooding, we had lots of quality family time. Thanks Greg, and best wishes for you and your family!

Lots to love about this place
This was not a perfect stay, but it was a great stay. Plenty of space, easy access to the water, outside of fireworks on the 4th it was a quiet place to stay, the game room was super fun, and overall we really enjoyed ourselves. Communication about a couple of issues that came up was great and I bet in short order everyone will be giving this place 5 stars. Good place for one big family like us or a couple of small families. Expect nothing but great things for the relatively new VRBO property.
