Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Polk County

We had such a nice Christmas stay with a handful of adults and kids. The property and view is pretty, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to make Christmas dinner. This was a great spot for young kids since it is free of clutter and has an additional family room in the basement they could run around and watch TV in. Would love to return in the summer to experience the river and outdoor space.

If you are looking for a beautiful home in the country this is the place. The house is perfect for a group, everything is as described and pictured - even better than pictured. Hot tub was a bonus- even though it was really cold out. I highly recommend Heathers place!

Perfect lake cabin for a peaceful getaway! Quiet and secluded. Exactly as pictured.

This Airbnb was wonderful in every way possible. Also the host was very good with her communication and very timely. We highly recommend this place. We definitely plan to come back.

Great place for our entire family! Plenty of room and beds for all! Would be a great place for a summer vacation! Nice beach and outdoor area. Great area! Thank you for hosting us!

Great place! Wish had more time to spend there. Just needed a last minute place for some guys working out of town and they were able to accommodate us! Communication was great!

Had a wonderful stay for a weekend of board games with friends. Enjoyed walking the property, meeting the horses and the friendly dogs from a nearby home. Would definitely stay here again.

That’s the first place with sharp knives and enough q-ty of utensils (spoons, forks etc) :) We loved the place and definitely would recommend or return back.

We stayed here on out wedding night. Sarah is a sweetheart and let us check in a hour early, so the groom could get ready. The place was very clean and the decor was out of this world! So beautiful! You are right downtown and so close to everything. It was amazing to wake up and see the beautiful fall colors across the street! My husband and I loved this place!

Rhonda and the building she has decorated and managed is outstanding and beautiful. The artistry and attention to details makes this an ideal getaway and cozy retreat!

The location was absolutely perfect, nestled in an adorable little town that felt like stepping right into a Hallmark movie. The charming streets, quaint shops, and picturesque scenery truly made our family’s stay feel magical. The rental itself was cozy and inviting, with every comfort considered. Overall, this was a delightful stay, and I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a charming getaway.

Laura’s place was perfect for my husband, me and our dog. Very easy to find and a nice private lower level.

The Balsam Lake Bird's Nest can't be beat for its location on the shore of beautiful Balsam Lake. The bird-themed decor was tasteful and comfortable, easy to navigate, and a truly restful retreat. The location is in an engaging little town that hops in the summer, and allows easy access to winter recreational opportunities as well. It's a quick dash to the Twin Cities, and if you stay here, you'll be sure to be safe, comfortable and refreshed.

Very happy to stay here. Will be back as is a great base to explore sounding areas. Lots of really nice hiking trails within a couple minutes plus the small town has everything needed
