Welcome to The Giraffe House, your private lakefront escape located just an hour from the Twin Cities on Lake Pulaski!
Inside The Giraffe House you will find comfortable and modern living with a fully equipped kitchen. This kitchen is perfect for those who love to cook; you’ll find a pantry full of spices and all the kitchen equipment necessary to make a delicious meal.
The dining table sits 8 with plenty of room for eating, games and conversation. The home is equipped with a wireless sound system that can be played upstairs or downstairs or both; along with two big screen TV’s if you want to chill out in the evening.
The master bedroom has a full ensuite bathroom with a tub that overlooks the lake for a relaxed bubble bath. All three bedrooms have walk-in closets with two bedrooms having very comfortable queen-sized Murphy beds that can be left down when in use or raised to expand your living area. In the garage you will also find two bikes available for your use on the biking path that can be accessed right across the street.
This house is designed to be enjoyed as a comfortable and beautiful Minnesota lake retreat. It sits virtually on top of the water with views that naturally capture the beauty of the lake. The lakeside deck has a table for outdoor dining, a gas grill and a wood-fired pizza oven, along with a cushioned seating area for conversation that captures the spirit of lake living. Next to the deck is a martini deck/yoga platform sitting in the middle of the garden looking out over all the lake’s activities.
The 32-foot dock ends in over 10 feet of clear water inviting you to jump in and perfect for swimming in the beautiful waters of Lake Pulaski. Ladders on both sides of the dock help you get back up for another jump in.
Book your next stay at The Giraffe House. Minnestay looks forward to hosting you!
