Relaxing Weekend in Beautiful space
The Glass House was an amazing property to stay in for the week. Instructions on everything you could think of was in a binder. The house had lots of inside activity opportunities as well as the boat access so we could fish and swim as well.

Great holiday
It was great place to spend the holidays. We had quite the weather (really cold and snow storm) and consider ourselves lucky we got to stay in such a beautiful environment while.mostly stuck inside. There are definitely enough areas for different families to have their own space. There were great things available for entertaining and cooking xmas dinner was not a problem in the well stocked kitchen. Thank you!

Lakeside vacation
The house is spacious with lots of bedrooms to accommodate our family of grown children, partners, and dogs. Wonderful variety of areas to work (yes, it's good for a working vacation) and to relax. My favorite was reading down by the dock on the lake. Lovely sunset views from the porch and great stargazing on the dock. We cooked meals together and played games at night. Definitely a good choice for our summer family vacation this year. (Great ice cream at the Chocolate Ox in Nisswa.)

Great out doors
Myself and the family had a fantastic time!! The fishing in the bay was great, the kids had a blast catching bass and pan fish from the dock. We seen alot of wildlife around the cabin including a doe and her little baby. The cabin had plenty of room for everyone and the kids loved the loft up stairs all to their self. We all had a excellent time and much needed getaway.

Wonderful property for a get together
I rented this cabin for a surprise birthday weekend getaway. It was even more beautiful than in pictures. Very spacious. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. The light switches took a bit to get used to, they are not where I would normally look for them so take the time to locate light switches before it gets dark. We went at the end of October so we didn’t take advantage of the dock but the views from the property were amazing!

Lots of Space!
A very unique property...extremely clean inside, lots of neat areas to hang out as a group or solo. Nice having dock access. Well stocked for everything you need and nice for cooking - not just a mash-up of old dishes. Would highly recommend.
