Lake side house rentals in Lake Harriet

Laura is such a thoughtful and gracious host! The carriage house is absolutely charming - bright, spacious, peaceful, and private. I felt extremely safe and comfortable throughout my stay. A perfect cozy winter weekend hideaway!

We stayed just two nights, but the place was cozy. I loved the memory lane experience of items that decorated the place. This is a quiet hideaway that makes it possible to unplug and just decompress from life. The lake was frozen and beautiful all at the same time.

We stayed at Jane’s place for our newly minted annual thanksgiving family gathering. It was spacious, well stocked and was exactly as advertised. There was a lake within a 3 minute walk! We will definitely be considering this for our Thanksgiving spot next year!

We live in the state - but were looking for a place that was closer to all of us and that we could stay over. We wanted to cook a meal and eat together - many places we looked at said they could sleep the number we needed, but did not have enough chairs to seat everyone for dinner. Finally found this house that would work. It was perfect. The main floor is an open floor plan - we could cook and eat and enjoy each other's company together. We also were lucky to get a very nice November weekend day to enjoy the firepit. The next day we were able to go to one of the MANY MANY excellent restaurants nearby for brunch and just a few of us stayed and went out to dinner too. Very close, easy to get to. Probably could have walked if the weather was better. The extra amenities with the beverage cooler and snacks provided were great.

This is the second time I reserved this charming little house for visiting relatives. They absolutely loved it. Kim thoughtfully provided all the special amenities to make them feel right at home.

What a gem! A beautiful, clean, lovely stay less than a block from the lake. Perfect for going for a morning walk, and an easy drive to many fun parts of the city. Clean updated kitchen, comfy beds, and several different cozy spaces to read or relax.

We now stay at this cozy cottage yearly for a family, mother/daughter trip. My husband and I are also interested in staying for our own romantic get away sometime. It is the perfect blend of city perks combined with a wooded, lake view natural environment. We also loved enjoying the huge hot tub outside right in the middle of winter. It was a joy all around that we can’t wait to enjoy again and keep recommending!

The area is stunning, right on the Mississippi River , we gazed at the eagles flying around all day. The back yard and view are truly priceless. There is plenty of space for everyone to play around outside. Nice area to walk around the neighborhood and within driving distance you have anything a big city can offer. Inside the home , we were comfortable and had all the essentials we needed to spend our time there. Jeff and Kelly are wonderful, helpful and responsive.

Have stayed many times and a personal favorite. Great stay and host.

We loved staying in this third floor apartment in a lovely old house. The apartment is updated and well-maintained. Chris left breakfast food items in the fridge and on the counter. I cooked breakfast for my family each morning in the well-appointed kitchen. The beds were comfortable. The living room was perfect for down-time and some tv watching. The bathroom was clean and tidy with plenty of toiletries (endless hot water). Chris is a wonderful host. I highly recommend this apartment!

Great place, great communication. Appreciated flexible check in. Very well-equipped kitchen.

Charming and cozy apartment in a quiet neighborhood yet close to many great places in Minneapolis. Thanks for a great stay!

Absolutely beautiful home! The house is beautifully furnished and is stocked with all the necessities. The view of the lake is the highlight. Steve and Kama were available for any needs and were easy to work with. Looking forward to staying again!

Space was wonderful and exactly what our group needed! Host was excellent.

House was exactly as advertised, beautiful view, clean and spacious! Dilini was super quick to respond to any questions and super helpful! The house location, amenities and gracious host made our girls weekend a huge success!

Have stayed at Bethany's on 2 previous occasions and continues to not disappoint. Excellent amenities, great location. Host goes out of her way to make us feel at home and quickly responsive with any needs. Will look to stay here again when visiting!

The place was nice, quiet, and very beautiful being right next to the lake! The rooms were also extremely comfortable!

Quiet, comfortable place close to restaurants. Responsive host. We used it as a base to explore east central Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Would stay here again.

We had a fantastic family stay! Kelly’s home was well-equipped, perfect for our two small kids who loved the selection of games and toys. The nearby park was a huge hit, and being able to enjoy it even in the heart of a Minnesota winter made our trip extra special. Kelly was thoughtful and responsive, ensuring we had everything we needed. Definitely recommend for families!

Super cute and homey little house that accommodated our family of 7. The location was superb and the perfect distance from all of the fun things we did in the MSP area. Highly recommend!

This stay exceeded our expectations. Pleasantly surprised at the fully stocked kitchen with everything that you could possibly need. Plenty of room! Very clean! Amazing hosts and VERY responsive :) My daughter-in-law is in the military and stationed here with my grandaughters for the next 4 years. This will be our home away from home during that time. See you soon in a few months :)

Lovely and quiet stay. Warm and welcoming! Thoughtfully stocked location

The home was in a quaint and peaceful neighborhood, had everything you needed for a weekend getaway, and the host was easily accessible and proactive. We had a great stay and recommend Shawn’s home as a enjoyable place to stay in Minneapolis.

Thank you Andrea for hosting my family and I for past week and half. I loved the details!
