Pizza
- Rafferty's in Crosslake is a 10 minute drive to the west (also one in Crosby but that is a little further). Call and ask about specials.

What a gem?!

This VRBO site surpassed my wants and needs in a lake home! The check-in/check-out process was easy. Mike's communication was top notch! The location was peaceful and in a quiet neighborhood. We went during March, so, the lake was still frozen. We did a bit of ice fishing and walking around the lake. Home was aesthetically beautiful and clean. I would definitely recommend to others.

Perfect space with amazing view

My husband and I wanted to get away from the cities for a few days. We chose the lake house for its proximity to Crosby, the view of the lake from the bedroom and living area, and the large sectional. The place exceeded our expectations- snuggling up on the couch, cooking in the open kitchen, sleeping late in the comfy king bed - and best of all, watching the sun set over the lake. And, we were able to bring our little dog along. We wil be back!

Long family weekend

My husband and I stayed 3 nights with our 14 and 20 year old boys. And our 2 pups. Very clean. Great location. Adorable home. We walked the neighborhoods and also hiked some nearby places. Beautiful! The ONLY thing I would say is we wished the mattresses were more comfortable. We could never have done a week. Which is what we like to do in the summer. Maybe it was just us otherwise it was a very nice place.

Clean. Met expectations

My wife and I just needed a comfortable place to stay while doing some survey work in the area. Big deal for us is that the photos and descriptions are an accurate depiction of the property and they were. We were looking for a nice out-of-the-way cabin with a Lakeview and it lived up to expectations. Owners were very helpful when we had a couple hiccups trying to check in in the dark. Very responsive. Thx

Great northern getaway

We stayed here over an October weekend for a family getaway and could not have been more pleased. This home had plenty of space, great amenities, and on a quiet property. The host was quick to respond to any question I had. We all agreed that we would like to come back again.

Beautiful lake home, on a beautiful lake. Many opportunities for family fun; swimming, fishing, fire pit, games, meal prep. would have liked some cross ventilation in living room and kitchen, but overall wonderful experience.

Great cabin on a quiet lake

We visited the Brainerd Lakes area with our family of 4 for a week and this was a great home base for all our summer fun! We loved the kayaks and used them every day. The cabin had a ton of amenities, extremely well stocked kitchen, many board games, good WiFi, two grills (Weber and a Traeger) and more (check the listing). And it was nice to stay somewhere that is more quiet than the more popular lakes in the area.

Lovely lake house

A lovely lake house with plenty of different seating areas around the house. We arrived the day after a big storm so we made ourselves helpful cleaning the yard and make a bonfire, we loved it. The house is nice, some furniture in and around the house is a bit run down. However I was not very pleased with the fact that one bunk bed the sheets were not clean and fresh, and I know for sure when I later found candy wrappers in the bed (not from us!) Still we recommend the house! Thanks!
