Overnight Fish House Rentals on Lake Minnetonka
Heated sleeper fish houses for a night on the ice.
An overnight fish house rental lets your group stay out on Lake Minnetonka through the evening and into the next morning. The house is heated, the holes are already drilled, and the rods and bait are inside, so you can fish after dark, sleep a few steps from your lines and pick right back up in the morning.
We rent our sleeper houses by the slot on weekends, and you check in at our marina in Mound. Our houses sleep 3 to 8, depending on the house. Bring the sleeping bags and the snacks, and we'll have the house ready.

Check-in and check-out
Check in at 4850 Edgewater Drive, Mound, MN 55364. From there, you'll follow us out to your house. We'll show you around, go over everything you need to know and get you settled in before you drop a line.
Your check-in and check-out times are in your confirmation email, so you'll know when to arrive and when to pack up the next day.
Ice safety
Safety is our number-one priority. If the ice isn't safe on your dates, we won't send you out, overnight or otherwise. Instead, we'll contact you and work with you to either move your reservation or cancel it, depending on what works best for you.
