We were a group of five alumni college friends who returned to Bemidji to bond at the lake house and explore BSU and town. This home has an amazing open layout with a large kitchen, lake view dining, spacious lake view living room with 2 leather couches and 2 modern easy chairs. We used the smart TV, a cozy 3 sided fireplace between dining and living room space and cooked all meals in the well supplied kitchen. They had pots, pans, baking dishes, crock pot, waffle iron, blender, K-cup and drip coffee pots, tea pot, etc. The master bedroom has its own bathroom and the 2nd bedroom upstairs has a bathroom close by near the kitchen. The downstairs has a family room with 2 loveseats, table and chairs, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom to share, and all bathrooms have showers. All beds were very comfortable and the decor through the house is well chosen. There is a screened-in porch, an upper patio with a grill, and a lower patio with a gas fire place. The path to the lake is well paved, the lot is left rustic, the views are stunning. The quiet lake is great for swimming and fishing. We floated on air mattresses for hours listening to loons, seeing eagles, etc. The hosts, John and Lisa are exceptional. They are so friendly and attentive to make sure we had all we needed, all with respect for our privacy. You can park cars in the garage & driveway. It’s a quick drive to Bemidji. This is a rare find and a beautiful comfy house to enjoy time with family or friends. Thanks John and Lisa!
