We loved our stay at Lake Watab! We had everything we needed, from a suitable kitchen to a comfy bed. Hot showers and AC as needed when the weather became unusually warm. We met our hosts, and they told us about many more things we want to come back and see. We hope to be back!

Our stay was fantastic! There was plenty of space for us while attending a baseball tournament for our son. The property was clean and well taken care of. The host was amazing to work with, especially with my error on my email address preventing me from seeing the booking fully.The only improvement we could have asked for was maybe a larger water heater. The hot water seemed to go out after the 1st person 's 10ish minute shower. We made due and spaced things out for everyone.Highly recommend this place for a bit of RnR - read the guidelines and details both in the listing and when the guest book is sent over. There is complete transparency and the owner is super easy to work with.

Wasn’t what we were expecting. The other “bad reviews” are exactly how we felt. It is what it is, we wouldn’t come again. I’m sure the owner is going to fire back with all that we “did wrong”.

GREAT LAKE ESCAPE
The stay was amazing. The home was close to all the great things central minnesota has to offer. It was a homey space, and the backyard was stunning. It was peaceful and quiet, nd the lake was very clean. The beach was a huge bonus. Great place. Great area. Even better hosts.

Good Place in a Quiet Setting
We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen.
The dining table is not very practical at bar height, it's extremely small, and there are only four chairs in the whole house though the house rents for six people.
The mattresses are comfortable. Thanks!
The AC is not adequate to the house. Certain rooms are comfy while others get little air. Ceiling fans would help a lot too.
The bathtub is terribly slippery and grab bars are needed.
There are not enough towels supplied for a week's stay when one is not provided a washer/dryer.
Nice place overall; fit our needs quite well.
Way too many silly rules in a book that people don't read. Shorten the notes to the important things - bullet them - and move on.
Quiet neighborhood; good for walking.

The lake was nice
Conflict with the host set the tone for an uncomfortable stay. The smoke detector battery was chirping at 1:30 am the first night. We replaced the batteries at our own expense to fix the issue since this type of thing can happen. The gas grill is not for guest use and we mistakenly uncovered it to take a look. We did not use the grill, but the host became very upset with us. Our apologies fell on deaf ears. Guests may use the charcoal grill, but only lighter fluid is provided. You need to get your own charcoal. We did not grill during our stay. Owners were present in their basement unit for much of our stay seemingly unaware of the boundaries they established. The deck is for guest use yet each time we left the property, the deck furniture was re-arranged. The owners do not seem to want to host as minimum effort is put into maintaining the property or making the stay comfortable for guests. The lake was very nice, but we will not be returning.

Have you ever seen the VBRO commercials with Nick Saban and the list of rules. That is this place. They had 5 pages of rules!!!! EXTRA PERSON CHARGE - Even with all of there house rules, they do not follow the law!!! MN has a price transparency law where even in a VBRO additional fees must be listed in the advertising (which the owner writes). As you will see the listing sleeps 6, the first line in the description of the property states for a couple or family up to 6. NO WHERE does it list any fees. I was charged 400 for extra guests!!!! When asked I was told they charge 50 night per person over 4 people!!!!! * They list air conditioning; however, they do not have central air. They have room units. One of the guest rooms with the queen bed has no unit. It’s also listed in one of their rules although they have these they prefer that don’t use them because they cost money so just open a window.*The couches were very used up. One of the couches had boards under the cushions. Between people sinking into the cushions and the couches being so low they were very difficult to get out of even for middle aged people.*The house is on a lake, that is true; however, there is a very steep hill to get down there and when you do get down there is so much goose poop. As you will see in reviewing other reviews these are not new concerns it’s just how this property is - lots of rules, hidden fees, and an inaccurate listing. Not worth the trip.

Not As Described
First: There are some misleading things about the property post. I will fully admit; I didn't read the whole thing, so I missed the last couple sentences which read: "Owners have a private residence in the lower level of this property with a private, separate entrance so as not to disturb your visit and respect your privacy. They are rarely there."
I would not have rented this property if it would have been more obvious that the owners are on site. This should be listed as a duplex, not "quiet, relaxing home." It seems that the owners are saying just enough to not be entirely false, but they're not being entirely forthright either.
Other notable differences:
The pictures of the home make it seem like all bedrooms have AC units. They don't.
The owners say "separate entrance." There is an entrance to their "entirely separate space" within the unit. There is also an entrance to their space at the back of the house. You will see them walk through.
The flag pole and number of flags flying has changed from the front picture.
There are pictures of a concrete patio, a grill, and chairs; those are off limits for renters.
The Ring cameras at the front and back of the house aren't pictured or aren't pictured clearly.
There wasn't a tarp on the house in the pictures; when we stayed there, there was a tarp over what seemed like a broken roof which kept 1 guest awake. (I have pictures.)
The gas grill is off limits.
There is an un-pictured charcoal BBQ for guest use.

Stay on Watab
Property was clean and appointed nicely. Check in and getting in to the property was easy enough.
Other than no bottle opener, the house was well supplied.
Property manual was thick.
Owners stay on the lower level. We could hear their tv in the evening and I am sure they could hear the crying baby overnight.
Main gripe is the large damage deposit (over $3500), which has not been refunded 10 days later.
We probably will not choose this property again because of the need for damage deposit.

Meh...
Positives:
Beautiful location on small quiet lake
Easy to find and close to town for extra gas and groceries
Rental well cared for with kitchen easy to cook in
Concerns:
Extra restrictions and rules that were not stated at time of booking.
Lack of privacy due to owners dining on patio, coming and going throughout the day, using the dock for their own pontoon boat, and constant questioning of guests during their stay.
No place for safety should a tornado warning be announced (which it was). The owner’s residence in lower level is not available even if they are present.
Aluminum dock does not have any protection for landing boats which makes scratches almost inevitable.
