We stayed here for a wedding at Reeds and Rushes. It was so convenient to be so close by. The townhouse was very clean and so peaceful. My mother (82) found the basement so cozy. It reminded her of the days when she lived on the lake! I would like to rent again this time so we can enjoy the amenities that are provided.

This rental was easy to find and had all of the amenities we needed. The WiFi signal was not strong, so this was a great place to unplug.
Thr proprrty looked just like the pictures. Relaxing with great views.We live in the Twin Cities and were having our house painted inside. We couldn't be in the house while they eere painting. We love the fact that the host chose to make this a pet friendly getaway. Howard lake offered some really good opportunities for us. Our car broke down and we went to a place called Omega Auto and they took great care of us and were extremely reasonable. We also found a boat rental nearby in Maple Lake and they were extremely affordable. We were very interested in this because the host also offered a doc where we could put the boat. There are a lot of small towns within a 20 minute drive to explore. We had a lot of fun in Buffalo at some thrifting/antiquing places. We were amazed at how easy the coming and going to this home was from the Twin Cities considering all the freeways that are closed down on the weekend. We would highly recommend Joe's place for a short or long term stay.
