5 out of 5The best place on earth
March 16, 2013
My wife and I went there on our honeymoon and stayed in Hemingway retreat. The owner were the nicest, most pleasant people. The room was perfect. And breakfast was superb. We will definitely be back for anniversaries, getaways and any other opportunity. If you are considering going I would recommend it to everyone for any and all occasions. This place is the best!

I do not have one complaint about the chaska house. my husband and i stayed.there last night for our honeymoon. We stayed in the hemingway retreat one. it was spacious, clean, cozy, neat,full of artifacfs, and the sheets were the softest in the whole world. The jaccuzi tub for two was wonderful and the water got HOT! The owners are the nicest people i have ever meet in this kind of business. the woman encouraged my husband to carry me over the threshold as she took pictures for us. The breakfast was hot, unique, made from scratch and made you feel good. Stuffed french toast and homeade syrup! Yum! The couple sat at the breakfast table after serving us and told us stories and gave us great advice! I cannot wait to go back and.try out the other rooms!

March 01, 2012
My new husband and I spent our wedding night at "the retreat I". We had a late check in but Louis was so understanding and welcoming. It's just a short walk from the main house. It felt like we were in the country. We relaxed and enjoyed the jetted tub. Breakfast was wonderful and even the guest were nice. I was very impressed with Louis and Linda taking time out to sit down and visit at breakfast. Their relaxed and welcoming disposition rubs off and you automaticaly feel at home! We ended our special day in a very special place. We will be returning!

This is the eighth time we've been and it just keeps on being the best getaway spot we've ever experienced. the rooms are fantastic and the owner's are amazing. we love to come and do a little shopping in town, but the best part is the relaxing and friendly atmospher developed at the Chaska House. Thank you as always for a wonderful time.
