Vacation rentals with lake access in Ramsey County

We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs but never before has our family declared they didn’t want to leave and that they wanted to come back sometime in the future. This house has everything you need to be comfortable, plus a bunch of extras you don’t get at your normal Airbnb: a sauna, a steam shower, and an adjustable bed in the master bedroom. The kitchen is well stocked. The bathroom towels are high quality. And there are two living areas where the whole family can gather and be comfortable. The hosts are also very responsive and thoughtful. We were visiting for our son’s college graduation and there were Congratulations Grad plates left in a basket in the kitchen. It’s little touches like this that made our stay at this home so special. We will definitely stay at his home the next time we are in the area!

We were a group of 3 couples with 4 kids! It was a beautiful property!

Britta's home was lovely, we stayed for 2 months and felt right at home! The neighborhood is very peaceful and it has great walking and biking trails nearby.

What a wonderful stay! Our family of 4, plus grandpa stayed to sightsee in MPLS and Miki's beautiful home had us feeling like we were cabining by the lake, yet a quick drive to all the sights! Plus, Miki has a way of welcoming you, making for a perfect host. We hope to go back every summer, it's a special place.

I had a fantastic stay in this beautiful and modern basement apartment. The space is incredibly cozy and well-equipped with everything ready to use. I especially enjoyed the table bowling game and the comfortable loungers for relaxing in the backyard, which opens up to a stunning view of White Bear Lake. The living room is perfect for unwinding, with a large sofa and a great setup for watching TV. The kitchen is very bright and well-equipped, making it easy to cook meals, and the bedroom is spacious with a large floor-to-ceiling window that opens to the backyard. The bed was super comfortable, and waking up to the lake view was a real treat. Communication with the hosts was smooth, and they were always attentive to my questions. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable stay near White Bear Lake!

Great location for visiting White Bear. Large home with plenty room to spread out. Perfect for multi generational families. I'll stay there again when visiting the area.

Jeanne was a great host -- proactive and responsive. The house looks even better than the photos. If you enjoy watching/listening to birds, you'll love sitting on the deck any time of the day; typically, there were at least 15 different species. Sitting on the deck in the evening, watching the sun set over the lake and hearing the loons call, was the perfect antidote to our stress. If you visit in early May, you'll be treated to the neighbor's crabapple tree in full bloom. The space was perfect for three of us. We had ample room to spread out, hang out, and make a few meals. We loved the small touches like the 4-phone charger in the living room and the USB-C charger built into the bedside lamps. It's a quick drive or good walk to the park by the lake, where there are lovely nature trails and a small beach. We certainly hope to book Jeanne's place again!

Put the all of the minimalist Airbnbs to shame. This is a maximalist home. There is not a bare shelf to be found and it is far from boring. So much to look at! The home was also quiet, clean, and comfortable. Nice places to sit.

This small unit has everything you need for a comfortable stay. As a host, Lucie was very communicative and her hospitality was thoughtful and gracious. She provided snacks and bathroom toiletries. With a couple of quirks, everything worked as it was supposed to. One quirk was that the shower will spray water out into the bathroom when you turn it on unless you make sure that the curtain is pulled. Another is that when you turn on the TV, the screen just shows snow, so you have to figure out how to use the remote and the menu system in order to watch Netflix. There is apparently no general TV, if that matters to you. Wi-fi was fine. The lake location is pretty and quiet. Lucie offered us the use of her kayaks. However, it's not really a neighborhood where you can go for walks, so this is a location that you either can use as a base for doing other things in the area, or a place to relax in, along with the deck where you can sit outside. Lucie does a good job for her guests.

Nice cozy spot for the family to stay. Felt right at home. Would stay there again!

I had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The one-bedroom space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The shower was excellent, with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The neighborhood felt very safe, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Communication with the host was smooth, and they were very accommodating. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and secure place to stay by the historic lake.

Location was convenient and in a cute neighborhood. The upstairs neighbors are quiet, but you can hear every footstep, since it's an older home with creaky and uneven floors. The second bedroom is quite small. But the home was clean and adequate for what we needed for a comfortable weekend stay.

It was a great place to stay for the weekend

Great apartment. Terrific location. Steps from the lake. Easy parking. Wonderful deck for sitting out. Kevin has some nice touches like reusable grocery bags. He has a binder with information about the area and the apartment. Very useful. We really enjoyed our stay.

Loved staying here with my family while dropping in for a quick visit in the twin cities. The lakes district is absolutely stunning, the architecture of the surrounding neighborhoods is hypnotizing. Staying here you’re located on a block away from Cedar lake and within striking distance of downtown MPLS. If you’re a runner/walker/biked the trail access is incredible. Access to the backyard area is quite nice in the summer as well! Thanks for hosting our lovely weekend! Cheers.

Jodi's place was the perfect house for our team to stay. We were in town for a conference at the convention center and house was about a 10 minute drive from the center, and we saved hundreds of dollars over is staying at a hotel in town. I would look to stay here again if I return to the Twin Cities.

Connie's place was exactly what we were looking for: clean, quiet, attractive and conveniently located. My family and I enjoyed the view of the lake and walking the nearby trails. My grandson got a lot of use out of the games and toys. We were able to cook our meals in the fully stocked kitchen. We appreciated the ease of check-in and Connie's responsiveness. Highly recommend!

This cottage is absolutely gorgeous!! It has so much to offer with a beautiful view on the lake, a hot tub, a fire pit area, a beautiful walking trail, and so much more! It was the perfect place to celebrate a bachelorette weekend and so many amazing memories were made here. The host was very helpful and always answered any questions. The house was stocked with lots of cooking supplies and cleaning products that made it easy to stay there. I hope to be able to come back to this cottage in the future because it was the best weekend!!

This airbnb had a lot of sitting areas which was great for our large family! The home was clean, had all the basics, and we loved the outdoor spaces. Highly reccomend!

A gorgeous place with beautiful lake access. We spent 6 weeks here while waiting to close on our new home & we enjoyed it so much. Thank you!!

The hosts, Katie and Curt, were very friendly and responsive. The hot tub on the patio was a big bonus. I also enjoyed relaxing in the hammock and watching the trolley go by through the woods ($3 to take the short historic ride). And just a few minutes to walk to Lake Harriet pavilion to take in some live music or walk around the lake. I’m excited to come back sometime for this relaxing get-away!
