Can’t wait to return! Beautiful property.
Loved everything about the location of this place. We loved being outside playing yard games, using the canoe, or relaxing in the hot tub. My favorite part was sitting around the fire roasting marshmallows (which were provided by Steve) to make s’mores. This house had plenty of room for everyone. Loved the wide variety of family games inside as well. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. I also had contacted Steve about a few questions and he responded quickly. Check-in and out was smooth. We will definitely return. It was a great location!

A relaxing "cabin" without the 3 hour drive
This property had EVERYTHING we needed to enjoy our stay including blankets for the couch, every tool we could need in the kitchen (including a crock pot), smores materials, and plenty of dishes. Many of the guests commented that it was one of the best stocked Airbnbs they had stayed in. We had 13 guests and everyone found space to relax and enjoy. Steve was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed. The check in process was simple and final clean up requests were minimal.Overall a great property for a getaway while still be conveniently located.

Wonderful stay at Eagle’s Nest
We’ve stayed at this house for 4 years now and it’s always been a wonderful experience. The place is cleaned, well-maintained, and the hot tub is in good working order. The lakeside location is quiet and offers a nice view. Would certainly recommend!

Beautiful!
The home was so beautiful and cozy. We ran out of wood and Steve brought some over right away! They were also amazing at responding back quickly. The group we had absolutely loved the property, and we definitely plan on utilizing the space again!

Great place for group gatherings!
Very nice house with lots of space for sleeping and gathering inside and outside. The inside is very nicely updated and modern with 6 very comfortable bedrooms and 2 nice bathrooms (the shower in one bathroom is huge!). There are 3 spaces for large groups to gather, 2 large indoor dining tables, and a great outdoor deck. Lake views from the house are beautiful. The backyard provides a great space for yard games as well as a big firepit (and the s'more makings provided were a great touch). The house is located near a highway but is quiet inside the house and in the backyard. It's great to be able to be on a lake in the middle of a city. There is a lot of onsite parking for a large group with 2 driveways. The location is convenient and close to restaurants, a couple golf courses, an indoor pickleball court, grocery stores, and the airport. The host was very helpful and attentive before and during our stay.

Great place to stay once again
This was our group’s second stay at Inver Grove Heights and the experience both times was great. Clean, well-appointed home, with seamless check-in access and great amenities (including a hot tub, great in the winter). Would recommend.

Gorgeous lakeside spot
Wonderful place. So fun to have kayaks and canoe lakeside. We took a few lovely paddles around Schmidt lake and saw snapping turtles and enjoyed the geese taking flight. Beds super comfy, nice linens and pillows. Tons of games available. Lots of places to commune or take quiet alone time. Loved the bbq and bonfire.
Would prefer to not hear the nearby freeway noise but we decided to pretend it was the ocean! The place is otherwise so peaceful. Would also love to have better serving platters and bowls in kitchen for a place that otherwise is so thoroughly well appointed.

Girls' Trip
6 of us have been traveling together for 10 years, mostly in the outstate Minnesota area, but when we saw this listing it looked perfect - on a lake, 6 bedrooms, fire pit, hot tub - who could ask for anything more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was the most well-appointed kitchen we have ever stayed at and the owner had anticipated just about any possible need we could encounter. We had a great time!

Great gathering house!
Stayed at this gem for a family wedding and we loved it! Kitchen was more than well stocked-it was the best stocked kitchen we’ve ever had. It is much appreciated when the cupboards have more than salt and pepper in them. There was coffee, pantry staples and a welcome basket.
We also really appreciated all the different spaces that we could hang out together. Several different couch areas, two dining areas, plus the outdoor fire pit.
Steve was responsive and super helpful.

Excellent lake property in the Twin Cities
Beautifully renovated super clean home on Lake Schmidt. Comfortable beds, nicer than the pictures, lots of natural light from sky lights. Our family really enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards, canoe, fire pit and hot tub. Easy check in and check out. High recommend and would be happy to stay here again!

Great Family Wedding Location
The property was a beautiful setting for an outdoor family wedding. It was the perfect spot to have the entire family in one location to celebrate and there were plenty of things to keep our adult children entertained.

Great space for a family gathering.
We had a great experience at this property ovrrall We were getting multiple generations of the family together to honor my daughter's university graduation. There was plenty of space for socializing as well as enough room to find quiet spaces. The kitchen was well supplied, there were plenty of towels and linens - the space had everything we needed for a successful weekend and was clean and welcoming.
I was a little put off by having to provide a full list of everyone staying, but that might be a common requirement these days and I am just out of touch (plus I understand the need to protect your property)
One caution - the space and the grounds are a bit challenging if you are with anyone who has reduced mobility. My 85 year old parents struggled with the terrain in the back and the amount of steps. Not a negative, but something to be aware of.
The whole group had a wonderful time and we would all recommend Steve's property - all of your guests will love trying the downstairs shower :)
