Cabin vacation rentals in Lake Independence

The Indian Lake Chalet is sublime!! The perfect place for a relaxing or active family trip—we did lots of both! The house is super clean and perfectly appointed. It was comfortable and spacious for our multigenerational group of 11. We’d very happily stay here again!

It was a beautiful and relaxing time!

This place was perfect for hosting my family visiting from abroad - the lakefront cabin showcased a Minnesota getaway, from breakfast out on the deck viewing the lake, to boating, and even catching some crappie out on the lake. Everyone loved their stay, and I really appreciated how well-stocked the home is with towels, blankets, & loads of dinnerware so we could have some family meals together easily. Very thankful for Ethan & Jennell's wonderful home & pontoon boat that left my family so impressed with Minnesota!

I highly suggest this place. there is just so much to do. I personally really enjoyed the hot tub and fishing that this place offered!

Great location not to far from the twin cities. It was great that there were kayaks and a canoe there for us to use free of charge. Also, there were instructions for using all of the necessities in the home, like the hot tub, fireplace, etc. Thanks for a great, relaxing weekend!

Our stay at the cabin was amazing! Extremely peaceful with beautiful views. Katie was so nice and easy to contact! We’ll definitely be returning!

The cabin was absolutely gorgeous! The outdoor space alone was worth every dollar we paid. The interior offered many different sleeping options, none of which felt cramped or out of place for our larger group. There is a store that is a walkable distance away, which made it easy to pick up a few last minute items. Michaela was responsive when we had questions and check in/check out was a breeze. I will absolutely be coming back!

We spent the weekend at Luke’s house on Eagle Lake and had a great time. There were plenty of beds for the 5 of us and we enjoyed the dock, outdoor shower, and the views from the living room. Kitchen came stocked with the items listed and Luke was great about reaching out and offering help with anything.

Here’s a polished version of your Airbnb review: ⸻ We had a great week at this cozy 2-bedroom cabin! The hosts were friendly, communicative & and very responsive. The cabin was clean, well maintained and had everything we needed including a washer/dryer, desk & all the streaming services for rainy days. Frankie’s Bait Shop just 10 minutes away was a highlight, and we took the pedal boat out multiple times - caught plenty of crappies and smallmouth bass. We’d definitely book this property again!

We had a great stay at this location.. check in & check out very easy. Beautiful home. Booked again for next year!!

The place was nice and clean. They had plenty on activities for a family to do. The lake was beautiful, easy to use a kayak or paddle board. There wasn’t a good pan to use to prepare eggs. We enjoyed the time there and will recommend this place to our friends.

Bright, clean and amazing views!! We had some fantastic family time, and it was the perfect getaway!! Emily was great...extremely accommodating and an outstanding host. Thank you very much for your hospitality and sharing your place!

If you're looking for the "perfect" resort with no imperfections...this is NOT the place for you. But...if you're looking for someplace that has just the right balance of low key summer camp meets comfy creature comfort filled cabins that have a BEAUTIFUL view of Lake Augusta...then this IS the place. Max's cabin was perfect for us ( my husband and I) along with two dogs, crates and gear. Loved the loft sleeping space, and the bed on the main level looks directly out onto the lake. You can't beat it. And clean...SO clean! Felt like we were the first guests. Oh...I did not think to bring a hair dryer...because really do you need it at "camp." but some extras like that may not be included so be sure to take a full list of the amenities. Oh! We hit Octoberfest at the local Spilled Grain Brewery! Tons on Tap! And the Tin Roof Candle Company in town also my favorite!! All locally poured! Would 100% recommend all of the above!

We enjoyed this cabin stay! It’s a nice little place if you want a mix of a peaceful get away but also want to explore the Twin Cities. It’s a small, quaint cabin with easy access to the lake. Neighbors are very close, so it didn’t feel as private as we had hoped, but overall a nice stay. It was a cool weekend but if it had been hot, it might be somewhat miserable as the AC doesn’t reach the bedrooms well. Clean & stocked well!

Cute and cozy cabin with incredible views! When weather cooperated, we had a blast soaking up the sun, swimming and playing on the beach and fishing off the dock. The outside area is just perfect for all kinds of water activities with plenty of space for littles to run around. Our kids spent hours exploring in the sand and enjoying the lake. The beach area was truly perfect for play or simply enjoying the gorgeous views and wild life. The fire pit was also a nice touch and right near the water. Next door neighbors were so friendly and brought us some materials to help get the fire going. We didn’t get much of a chance to use the bunker house but this was also a really fun space and a great addition. On rainy days we enjoyed exploring downtown Annandale, which turned out to be such a cute little town with several fun shops and restaurants. Overall we had a great stay, despite weather not always being in our favor. We will definitely be returning!

We loved this cottage and being close to the peaceful lake. It was so well made and great design. Every space was comfortable and well thought out. Comfy beds. Beautiful views of the lake out all the windows and lovely sunsets. We grabbed meats from the butcher in town and grilled and also ate in town one evening. This one's a winner!

Perfect place to stay for a family wedding weekend. Thanks for adding to our special event!

Great place…plan to stay again. The owner responds quickly and is very friendly and kind.

I just wanted to say this place was very homey, close enough to the city and super easy to get to. This home had many games and activities to do at the location, for kids and adults. The place was clean and super easy to access. If you’re into the lake life this place is awesome, big dock, clear lake, and lots of fish for viewing or catching. Kevin is a super awesome host. He is very responsive and very friendly. Highly recommend this place and we will be back in the future. Thanks again Kevin,

Our stay at Hygge Valley Hideaway was a picture perfect weekend. Kammi was a wonderful host who clearly loves this property. The cabin-feel was so cozy, the sunset views were spectacular, and everything was clean and clearly marked. We loved our visit!

Nice little lake place close to Lindstrom and Taylors Falls/St. Croix Falls. 2 decent size bedrooms with comfy linens. Super cool to have the Nordic House within walking distance. Smart TV is there so you can watch shows. Good basic kitchen. Fire pit was awesome but would be nice if there was a fire poker available to mange things. Some basic grill tools and maybe an extra propane would be have been nice touches. We had a great 3 nights and would be back for sure. I only threw out those suggestions as ways to amplify an already great spot. Cheers!

We had a great stay at Michael's place - the downstairs was a huge plus since my daughter and grandson had their own space at night. The cabin is right on the lake and we enjoyed having the view of the lake right out the window. I appreciated the fact that the dock is very stable since one in our party has a walking disability. We had fun fishing off the dock, mostly bluegills and sunnies but there are big fish in the lake and they were nibbling too. The place was clean and the furniture was comfortable which for me is important because I like to kick back and relax when I'm on vacation. Great patio area with grill and the town was super accessible with just a short drive away though it was peaceful at the cabin. I would definitely like to stay again sometime!

This is a beautiful cabin. It is very clean and well stocked. Lisa was very helpful and responsive to our request. The views were amazing! We enjoyed taking the boat out to watch the sunset. We are looking forward to another stay.
