Cabin needs work, Lake is great
Lake Ada is a beautiful lake with lots of fish, loons & great swimming. The cabin was dirty, outdated & cluttered. We washed all dishes & utensils before use. I wiped down countertops & tables, especially after finding the worms living under the toaster. The oven has never been cleaned, & the stove, toaster & microwave had grease all over them. The windows were so dirty you could hardly see the lake. Only 1 bedroom had a queen bed, but the frame squeaked loudly with any move. The bedding was from the 70's, & the whole place smelled musty. The dock also needs help, big tripping hazard.

Family-friendly vacation!
Our family was thrilled to spend a few days relaxing at pristine Lake Ada. There was a great space for our young kids to swim, as well as sand toys and extra life jackets. We roasted marshmallows around the campfire at night and enjoyed toys, games and DVDs when a storm rolled in! Billy was a considerate,communicative and responsive host. The cabin was clean and ready for us, but could use a deep clean. Our feedback would be to install smoke & carbon monoxide detectors for safety, and to invest in new pillows & linens for guests.

Thumbs up for “Sitting on the Dock of the Bay”
The cabin sits back in a quiet bay on Lake Ada, one of north central Minnesota’s most beautiful, clearest, cleanest lakes. My daughter and her family had a great time. Water sports, fishing, swimming, family time - their stay checked all the boxes. The property owner went above and beyond when we had questions. We would highly recommend “Dock of the Bay” for a genuine up north experience!

Great place to relax
This is the second time we have had a wonderful stay at the this cabin. My brother and I rent it and stay with our families. It has three comfortably sized bedrooms and a nice big living space. Our favorite place is the screened-in porch- best place to have your coffee in the morning. It had everything we needed and the owner is always super helpful and responsive. We will definitely rent this property again.

Great family get away!
We had a great weekend! The property was perfect for our family of seven. Billy was very accommodating and very easy to work with. The kids had a great time swimming, tubing and kayaking. Fishing was good too! Very secluded and quiet.

Relaxation Haven
I took the family up for a week and had a great and relaxing time. Weather was perfect 50-80 every day with a couple of showers but they don’t seem to last long. We caught plenty of fish, mostly bass, a few northern. Crappies were a little harder to find but found a nice place to catch them in the evenings. Cabin was very comfortable and secluded, back in a small bay off the larger part of lake. You can relax and listen to the loons all day long. Eagles are fun to watch, and there is a pine tree around the corner on Little Lake Ada that has two eagle nest in the same tree. Everyone on the lake was friendly, couldn’t pass another boat where they didn’t wave. Great place to kick back and relax. Looking forward to going back
