MARTIN LAKE, MINNESOTA, US
Swim, fish, boat & unwind — just 30 minutes from the Twin Cities
About this property
Welcome to Martin Lake House, a cozy waterfront retreat where you can enjoy the up-north lake experience without spending hours getting there. Set directly on a fully recreational lake, the home makes it easy to spend your vacation on the water. Swim and fish right from the dock, or bring your own kayak, boat, or jet skis and keep them at the dock during your stay. There’s plenty of open water for cruising and skiing, while a quiet inlet nearby offers opportunities to spot birds and other local wildlife. Inside, large windows provide beautiful lake views, including a three-sided windowed porch made for morning coffee and sunset watching. Relax beside the gas fireplace, settle in for a movie on the 55-inch TV, or head downstairs to the game room with foosball, electronic darts, an 8-person poker/game table, cards, and board games. The home features 4 bedrooms, two on the main level and two downstairs, plus a pull-out couch on the porch. Both bathrooms were completely remodeled in 2026, and the home also features main-floor laundry, an additional downstairs shower, an on-demand water heater, and updated water systems. Outside, guests can enjoy a propane grill, fire-pit chairs, cornhole, fishing poles, life vests, picnic supplies, a cooler, roasting sticks, and other lake-day essentials. Whether you're planning a family vacation, fishing weekend, or relaxing escape with friends, everything here is set up for enjoying Minnesota lake life.

Location
Martin Lake House gives you the feeling of escaping deep into Minnesota lake country while keeping you conveniently close to the Twin Cities. Spend your mornings fishing from the dock, afternoons swimming, boating, kayaking, or cruising the lake, and evenings gathered by the fire as the sun goes down over the water. For a quieter adventure, explore the narrow inlet just around the corner from the property. It's a great place to slow down and watch for birds and other wildlife away from the lake's main recreational areas. And when you want restaurants, shopping, or a day in the city, Minneapolis and St. Paul are less than 30 minutes away according to the host—making this an unusually convenient lake escape for families and groups.
