Relaxing Stay on Medicine Lake!
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Koselig Cottage on Medicine lake. Property worked very well for our group of 8 (2 small children).. very quiet area. Very centrally located and easily was able to get to most attractions in twin cities area within 30 minutes. Host very responsive to our needs. Highly recommend!

Great family getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Koselig Cottage. Only wish we could have stayed longer. The house was perfect for our family. Very clean and cozy. We all enjoyed the foosball and arcade games in the basement as well as the outdoor fun of the kayaks and park within walking distance. The host was excellent with communication and created a very relaxing getaway for our family of 7. Would definitely love to return.
