Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Carver County

Jennifer was an excellent and communicative host, and the place was perfect for us. She also discovered right away that we left something behind and coordinated with us to make sure we got it back.

This place was perfect for a girls’ weekend. Super close to Water Street shopping and wonderful restaurants. The gathering area upstairs was large enough for us to spread out and chat or play games. Lots of laughter this weekend — a trip we won’t forget.

I recently stayed at an Airbnb in Excelsior, and it was a fantastic experience. The location couldn't have been better, with the property situated just a short walk from the downtown area, full of great restaurants. Being so close to Lake Minnetonka was a real highlight—it's perfect for walks, boating, or just enjoying the views. The host was very welcoming and provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The property itself was clean, well-maintained, and had a homey feel. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy all that Excelsior and Lake Minnetonka have to offer.

My wife and I wanted a weekend getaway for our anniversary and we stayed here. Sabrina did an excellent job describing the place and providing us with responses to any questions we had. We would definitely recommend!

Our family had a nice stay here while our home was being repaired. Our sons particularly enjoyed fishing off the dock on the lake and we enjoyed the well supplied kitchen. Minnestay was very responsive and when there were some maintenance items they were quick to respond and the person who repaired things was friendly and resourceful.

We loved out stay at John's place in Cottagewood. Great location, beautiful home, well stocked . . . perfect for our family of five. Would absolutely stay again!

Kelley’s mid-century retro combines classic charm with modern amenities. My guests and I felt at home right from check-in, and we enjoyed a wonderful, peaceful, and quiet stay. We loved spending time in the spacious kitchen every night. I highly recommend Kelley’s home if you’re looking for a restful place in Chaska.

Great location for our family to stay while in town for a special event. While we didn’t get a lot of time there, we look forward to returning to take advantage of the firepit and kayaks.

I stayed here over a few very cold and snowy days. It was very conveniently located to visit Macalester. The unit was nicely set up, clean, warm, and cozy with a very comfortable bed. The off street parking was a nice plus. The hosts were very responsive to my questions. I would definitely stay here again.

I really enjoyed my stay at Lynda’s place. It was the perfect home away from home for my work week. Lynda had thought of everything to make the stay comfortable & homey. I hope to stay again when I am in the area & have more time to check out the neighborhood!

The apartment was clean and was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The building had great amenities. We really felt at home staying here. Lisa shared helpful information about the check in process, the apartment building amenities, and the surrounding area. I would definitely book another stay with Lisa in the future!

Great place, great neighborhood, and Rupinder was very considerate.

Kate and Daniel were amazingly responsive and accommodating hosts. They have a very clean and quaint place conveniently by the hospital near by. This made for a great place to rest and reset for us as parents while our child was in the hospital. They even have a great designated place for you to park so there's no need to fuss finding parking. We would highly recommend for anyone needing to stay near the hospital or downtown Minneapolis. We will definitely be coming back for future visits. Thank you!

Had everything we needed, very clean and spacious for being a basement/studio type unit.

Very beautiful area, just a drive to the city but its worth it. Very cute get away feeling to the apartment.

We had a great stay at The Place Between the Lakes! One of the best Airbnb's we have stayed in. It was clean and really tastefully decorated. It really made us feel relaxed and at home from the moment we entered. And they had wonderful personal touches that we both find unique. Highly recommend this Airbnb and loved the location to great lakes close-in to the city.

Beautiful setting, peaceful, comfortable place - only a little tough to find food if you arrive later when restaurant options might be closed (especially if vegetarian) because it is a rural area. Friendly, responsive hosts.

Cozy and cute! Loved the hot tub looking across the lake. Great for a relaxing vacation, would love to come in the summer

Our group of 6 adults absolutely loved staying here over Christmas week while visiting family in the area. The house is beautiful, comfortable, cozy, and quiet. The area is very safe and you can't beat a lake view, even in winter. We found just about everything we needed in the kitchen and appreciated there was lots of space to cook and store food. There were quite a few things to clean before heading out, but we spread it out over the night before we left and morning of, no big deal since we had lots of helpers. We played a couple rounds of cornhole in the garage, which was so fun! We would definitely stay here again!!

We loved this cottage and being close to the peaceful lake. It was so well made and great design. Every space was comfortable and well thought out. Comfy beds. Beautiful views of the lake out all the windows and lovely sunsets. We grabbed meats from the butcher in town and grilled and also ate in town one evening. This one's a winner!

We had a great girlfriends weekend. This home is comfortable with a cozy cabin feel, just like the pictures. The kitchen had everything we could have needed and the beds were quite comfortable. Kammi was a great host. We all really enjoyed our stay!

The cutest cabin on the lake! Very clean and Timothy gave excellent instructions before we needed them so we didnt even have to reach out to him for anything. It was so incredibly peaceful and relaxing, exactly what we were looking for! We will definitely be back!

This place was a lovely retreat from regular life. The house was comfortable and pleasantly decorated, and the setting was beautiful. Sitting on the dock watching the sun rise over the lake with a cup of coffee got my days off to a great start. There were several excellent options for private work space, and a TV in every bedroom (with a bonus TV in the main living space). The kitchen was comfortable, and the recreational equipment was all in good working order. It was chilly while we were there in early October, but we were able to use the provided kayaks and enjoyed ourselves on a sunny afternoon. 10 of 10, would recommend and stay again!

Lorri's place was perfect for our group of gals that gather occasionally for peace, quiet, and fun. Below zero weather called for the woodburning stove in the bright/spacious sunroom. So many options for sleeping space where everyone was very comfortable. All communication was swift and helpful. Thanks to Lorri and Fran!
