Lake City House | Entire Victorian House, Large Yard, Fire Pit, Walk to Lake, Patio, Yard Games

5 Bedroom House in Lake City

The beauty of old homes is that they have been cared for through generations and boast old oak wood interiors, ambience and joy, and magical nooks (under the stairwell there is a play + sleeping area for kids, an oval window in a bedroom, stained glass windows in many rooms). Add to this that it is 2 blocks to Lake Pepin, 4 city parcels of land, with plenty of room to park a boat, let kids play, gardens with fresh organically grown flowers and vegetables, AND modern conveniences in every room!
Ideal for families, groups wanting a get away for fishing, golf or skiing, and small events (maximum of 15 people).
Imagine having a long birthday weekend in a beautiful Victorian, Celebrating holidays, family reunions, baby showers, bridal parties, and many other gatherings.
Getting together with friends and family and having plenty of room to cook, play games, go fishing or sailing or golfing, and spending time together relaxing and enjoying time together in a beautiful surrounding.
It's the experiences in life we share together that matter most. :)

HISTORY of our HOUSE
This completely renovated Victorian with persian rugs and stained-glass windows was built in 1908 for the daughter of a man who invented better parts for a steamboat engine when the Mississippi was a hub of transport to bring Red Wing pottery to the entire country. Then it was cared for by an Air Force pilot who then went on to get a PhD at University of Minnesota in Agriculture. His thesis topic was "effective business models for small farms"! There is still an old barn|house on the acre property that served as a little red school house, then the fire house for the town, and now is in the process of also being restored.
WHY ARE THERE COTTAGE GARDENS? (part of your yard is a garden?)
Given the history of early American and the Victorian era, we have worked to regenerate some of the land to have cottage gardens full of heirloom and heritage vegetables and flowers that are open pollinated. This was known as "cottage" gardening during the 1920-30s when people (including my grandmother) would grow vegetables and flowers in the yard.
the FUTURE
In the next few years we are putting together an interactive tour that you can take during your stay so that learning about Victory Gardens, Heirlooms and Americans history with agriculture is fun and part of your stay! We look forward to this once the house is up and running and providing this type of living, historical legacy of American cottage gardens and heirloom seeds.
We hope you enjoy your stay at this beautiful Queen Anne Victorian we have lovingly cared for.

Summary: My father recently passed away and we were able to book this large but cozy home for the weekend of his funeral. Between my family and my sister's family, we had 10 adults and it worked out well, with adult kids sleeping in bunks, etc. It was so much nicer than a cold hotel room and the home provided gathering space where we could all sit comfortably and share memories. The rooms were tastefully decorated, and the kitchen was complete with a full assortment of dishes, cookware, spices, and a few other basics. Owner was very responsive. We came and went as if it were our own place. Plenty of parking. This amazing home made our difficult weekend easier.

Summary: Beautiful property, plenty of room, everything you need, peaceful, great location. We just really enjoyed our stay. The only problem we had was the code was incorrect to enter. Which is not a problem except that we had about an hour and a half delay from the host and getting back to us. so luckily it wasn’t too cold out, she’s pleasant so that’s not a worry, but might be a little bit more in tune to a client reaching out around check in time. However, we highly recommend the property and host.

There is a lot to do - including water activities! The Johnny Appleseed festival was also a perk during our weekend! We had the best time and would recommend!!

Summary: My family of three adult children and significant others gathering over Labor Day weekend and this house provided a perfect house for it. We loved the ambience of the house with several porches to choose from. The large dining room table fit our group for meals and games. After dinner, we would walk down to the Dairy Queen for dessert. The owner responded very quickly when I couldn't figure out the WiFi. The cooling units in each bedroom worked wonderfully. We will definitely consider this house for another family gathering in the future. Thank you!

Summary: Had a fantastic family vacation creating memories. The house is a beautiful Victorian. There were yard games, board games and a basketball court.The kids enjoyed making s'mores in the fire pit. The outside porches in the front and back of the house were great spots for reading and listening to the birds.There was also a playground two houses away where the kids rode their scooters and played. The lake was only a few blocks away and the town had many good restaurants-Family Restaurant, Kelly's Lake House, and Fiesta Jalisco to name a few. Lake City also provides a free bike rental and the Lincoln High School has beautiful tennis courts nearby. I could go on about the amenities of Lake City, MN but you will have to go there to find out for yourself.

Summary: We loved the house and especially liked the cooling(split units) in each of the bedrooms. Property owner was very good with communication. Might be nice to have an outside picnic table to be able to eat outside. Kitchen was nice and mostly stocked(could maybe use measuring cups/spoons.
