Enjoy this remodeled duplex home on gorgeous Lake Schmidt only 10 minutes to MOA, the airport, and downtown St. Paul. Enjoy 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 car garage, basement with electric fireplace, and your own private deck to take in the lake views. While this is one half of the duplex, if you need more space or just want the privacy, you can possibly rent out the other side depending on availability. Other things to note Important Note: Before booking this beautiful lake home, please ensure you have read our simple and straightforward house guidelines on this page and throughout the listing. There is direct access to the lake from the property. While swimming and fishing in the lake is not recommended, people have done it before if they're feeling adventurous or overly optimistic about fish. The water can be shallow in various parts of the lake so the aquatic plant life reaches the surface in the months of July and August. Motorized boats are not allowed on the lake so please enjoy the peace and tranquility. There is a canoe, 2 kayaks, and 2 paddleboards available for your use to go exploring on the lake. If you come in the summer, you will find a beautiful section of lily pads with the most amazing flowers. This lake home has been totally remodeled to provide all the comforts of home while allowing you to take in all the sights and sounds that nature has to offer. You may even see one of the resident bald eagles. The house provides a great opportunity to get away from the pressures of life for either a couple of days or for a week or more. The location is perfect as it's so close to the Minneapolis (20 min) and St. Paul (10 min) yet secluded enough that you would never know it. The house has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Check in time is 3 PM and check out time is 10 AM. For your reservation, the reservation fee includes 4 guests and each additional person, even if just stopping by and not staying overnight, is an additional chargeof $30/guest/night. I encourage you to purchase travel insurance so that in the unlikely yet possible event that something happens and you need to cancel your trip after the refund deadline, you can receive some of your costs back for eligible cancellations. If I find any evidence that smoking took place in the house, the fee is $500. Additionally, if you have extra guests that were not included in your reservation, you will be charged for that as well. Lastly, if I learn of these or other situations during your stay, your reservation is subject to immediate cancellation with no refund. I request a $500 security deposit is to ensure the House Rules are followed. To pay the security deposit, I make a Money Request through the website and, after your stay, the security deposit is refunded through the website within 3 days if there are no issues. As neighbors are close by and expect to enjoy their home in peace and quiet, if your group becomes so loud or disruptive that the neighbors feel that they need to call me or the police about it during or after your stay, there will be a damage claim of $500.00 to be deducted from your security deposit. Additionally, your group may be asked to leave at whatever time this occurs and there would be no refund of what you have paid to complete your stay. As you expect peace and quiet at your home when you are there, please extend the same courtesy to my neighbors so that I can continue to offer this great home to others such as yourselves. After you reserve the property, you will be provided the location of the house. Based on a few previous guests who have caused problems, I will need a list of names of anyone who will be on the property at any time during your stay, even if they are just stopping by. Each person is considered a guest for fee calculation purposes. Thanks for understanding. Please note that there are security cameras that face the entrances of the house, NOT on the inside. There is a limit of 30 guests during the day (a guest is any person on the property even if not staying overnight and just stopping by for a short time) and a limit of 16 overnight guests.
