Summer 2024 on Crooked Lake

What a wonderful experience on Crooked Lake. The property is immaculate and perfectly appointed for multi-generational families. Comfy beds, fast wifi, and beautiful outdoor spaces. We loved coffee on the deck, smores at the bonfire, and easy access to the lake. Can't wait to come again!

Amazing lake get-away

This house was wonderful for my family and friends to vacation together for the weekend. We had four adults and four kids ages 3-6. There were plenty of sleeping spaces both up and downstairs, and the kitchen was equipped with all the tools you need for cooking meals. The space was clean and cozy. We especially enjoyed the beautiful backyard and lake access. Our only regret is that we only booked for two nights!

Nice place to stay on a quiet lake

Our family of 6 adults and 1 toddler had a nice stay. This a very nice cabin on a great piece of property on a quiet lake. The cabin was a high end with lots of stone and very nice decor. There is an outstanding fire pit overlooking lake and the location is close to golf courses and the Cuyuna mtn bike park. Bass fishing on Crooked Lake was fantastic.

We were very impressed.

Beautiful, modern cabin

I brought my family to this vrbo for a weekend. We loved the ability to sleep all of us with the use of pull out couches and an air mattress, having 3 full bathrooms was a huge plus and the decor was perfect for the location. We even used the fireplace for a bit because of a chilly last morning. My parents and sister enjoyed the paddle boat. The kitchen appliances were all great—there’s even a coffee grinder! The one thing I’d suggest is supplying more coffee cups as well as bowls and spoons. Would definitely come back to stay here, it was very cozy and spacious for our family. I’m also intrigued by the stone floor in the basement—it was very cool and am curious if it’s heated in the winter. Loved the winding staircase also.

Wonderful

Great getaway, peaceful, beautiful property. Kitchen very well equipped. Many outside areas to gather and socialize. Spacious inside, we rented the house and guest house. Well worth it for 8 women. We always rent a property yearly for a girls weekend and this place was perfect. Probably the cleanest house we have ever rented. Beds super comfortable. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Heather Nissen

Host profile image
We are the Nissen family and together we own and manage Casa de Nissen. We are two sisters that own and manage the cabin rental alongside our husbands, young children and Father. We have spent our entire lives growing up at a cabin in this area and now have the opportunity to share that experience with others. Every part of your stay is an experience our family has curated and perfected for you over the years.

Why they chose this property

This cabin is not your average "cabin" experience in MN. Every inch of this home was remodeled anywhere between 1-8 years ago with custom and high end finishes. The layout was redesigned to create an experience for large or small families all year round. There are no shortage of bathrooms or storage amongst the custom designed cabin. The kitchen is what you expect in a high-end home. Custom concrete counters, stainless steel appliances and endless counter space.

The property's location on the hillside offers lake views that are breathtaking from any room inside the home. Given its hillside, the owners custom designed a concrete stairs with landing areas and bonfire pit to take advantage of the hillside and make for easy access to the lake.

What makes this property unique

The property is directly adjacent to the only Boat Access for the entire chain of lakes. Meaning if guests want to bring their own boat or bring a rental, the access is convenient. In the winter time, those that want to ice fish or snowmobile on the lake have great access from the boat landing as well.
