From Lake Superior fishing tours to mountain bike trails to shopping...I am happy to help:) Parking for multiple cars From time to time the owner maybe in the guest house. It's a rare occasion but I do want to disclose as it is a possibility. It is detached and more than 100 feet from the home so you will not be crossing paths. ***All guests must be registered. Entry is passcode which is changed for each group of guests to assure safety. Guest access This is an "entire home rental", you will have your own secured code for the front door and this code is changed with every guest visit. There is also a Ring camera at the front door to assure security for our guests. The driveway is approximately 100 feet long and there is enough parking at the bottom near the garage for about 4-6 cars and or a boat trailer should you choose to bring your own boat. Other things to note Rate is based on 6 guests/this includes both adults AND children. We CAN NOT accommodate more. There are larger homes on the lake and we are happy to help you secure one of those for your visit. Please look for a larger home if you will have more than 6 people, we simply cannot accommodate given our well, sewer and size of the home. You may use the canoe or kayaks at no charge. Please be careful with them and stay at least 100 feet from any wildlife including ducks and geese. Renters are responsible for any injury or damage incurred during use. ***This is a lake home in Minnesota so there will be insects such as but not limited to mosquitos, flies, spiders, etc. We are professionally sprayed around the foundation of the home but there will be bugs outside and a few may sneak in. PLEASE keep the doors closed, this helps so much. We do not allow BB guns or another type of play gun on the property. We have loads of friendly pet chipmunks and squirrels and do not tolerate them or any wildlife being harassed.
