You'll find a kayak on site at this beach cottage. Jump into your car and make short work of the 3-minute drive to Mille Lacs Lake or the 12-minute drive to Mille Lacs Kathio State Park (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, you can unwind in the garden or sip a drink on the patio. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

A living room, a BBQ grill, a fireplace, and air conditioning are featured at this 5-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom rental. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too.
