Great lake view from porch & cabin, even from the bed! Cozy cabin fully furnished, just need to bring the groceries. Firepit right out back door & porch is furnished, so no need to bring chairs. Pet-friendly. Lake dock out back for fishing & boating. Very quiet, off season. We will go back!

Enjoyed our stay

My family and I rented both houses right next to each other. The set up was nice as one of the houses had a nice back deck overlooking the lake with plenty of room to hang out and enjoy the outdoors. The host was great and even brought us some fresh vegetables one afternoon from his garden. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cabin was perfect for what we were looking for over the weekend. It was also very well stocked with necessities, was clean, comfortable and we loved the deck and lake views. We had friends staying at Kamp Dels so this arrangement worked perfectly for us.

Cabin on a lake

We very much enjoyed this cabin on the lake. The cabin itself was really nice and well maintained. Full kitchen, beautiful view out the back door. There is a trail with easy access to get on from the house. The whole weekend was wonderful and relaxing.

A Diamond in the Rough

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy little cabin on the lake. Thoughtfully designed, it included everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Inside, the classic Minnesota cabin aesthetic came through beautifully—plenty of pine tongue-and-groove paneling and charming wildlife decor set the tone.What really surprised me was the variety of waterfowl on the lake. As a lifelong Minnesotan, I spotted several birds I couldn’t even identify, which says something!I titled this a "Diamond in the Rough" because the neighborhood was an "Antique Roadshow" of RVs and small cabins. This doesn't take anything away from the experience since the cabin is oriented toward the lake. If you are looking for a relaxing stay by the lake, this is a good choice. We will be back the next time we need to decompress.
Morning coffee by the lake. The overhang keeps the outdoor furniture dry - much appreciated.
You just have to pause and take it all in.

Cuckoo about Coo Coo's Nest

This is a small, charming cabin of recent construction. The interior is rustic in a sophisticated manner, if that makes sense. The lakefront view is terrific, and the kitchen is great. There are charcoal and gas grills available for use, with appropriate utensils. Once I got the Wi-Fi password, the internet connectivity was excellent. (I would recommend finding out the password ahead of time, which I neglected to do.) The property manager came to welcome us and give us entry information. The small town of Waterville (population about 1,500) is surprisingly cosmopolitan: although the only restaurant serves Mexican cuisine, it was first-rate Mexican food, rivalling anything I've had in much larger cities; and the local grocery store is well stocked, and offers locally made bacon, bratwurst and other meats that we found delicious. Be sure you have a streaming account with a TV provider -- Hulu or the like; we don't. All-in-all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
