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!

Me and my family made priceless memories so needless to say to say we had a great time…. We will do it again. Thank you Kevin

This was our 2nd year staying here. The fishing was great from the boat and on the dock. We love the big deck for relaxing outside. The house is stocked with everything you need. Thank you for hosting us again.

This lakeside cabin was a breath of fresh air! Enjoyed staying here with my two pups after crossing the country to play in a stressful golf tournament. The beautifully updated & well appointed space made me feel right at home and put me in a great state of mind for golfing. Rained during my stay but look forward to using the kayaks graciously provided during next stay. Thanks Dustin!

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 such a wonderful time! We drove all the way from Texas for my daughter’s baby shower, and this cabin was the perfect place for our family to gather, relax, and celebrate. It truly felt like a blessing! We loved all the little touches that came in handy—things we didn’t even know we’d need but were so thankful to find. One of our favorite memories was making s’mores together under the stars and enjoying the peaceful lake on the kayaks. So much fun and laughter! It was the perfect family getaway, and we’re already looking forward to coming back again. Thank you, Timothy and Heidi, for making our stay so special!

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!

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 had such a great stay! There’s so many things to do: we enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boats and had a great dinner at one of the fire pits. We definitely recommend staying here!

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!

This Airbnb is gorgeous! Such a warm and cozy space, very luxurious but still felt safe. The host gave very clear instructions in their guide, and accessing everything was very easy; additionally, the host responded incredibly fast when needed. I definitely hope to stay here again!

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!

Our family of 4 loved staying a long weekend at this cabin - Michael, with team cabin, is a very gracious and thoughtful host! We mostly enjoyed the beautiful views of the lake and the natural surroundings from the large bay window and the deck. The kayaks were a big bonus, we all took turns exploring the lake. Watching the turtles, great blue herons, king fishers, ospreys and other birds by the water was awesome, and we spotted a black squirrel too! We went swimming a couple of times even if the lake can be a bit weedy. Cooking and grilling was easy with the help of the nicely stocked kitchen. Our last evening we got to witness a mesmerizing storm over the lake from the indoor coziness - so cool!

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.
