Great lake front cabin

The two of us had a wonderful stay. We had a great time in the canoe and did some fishing in the lake. We also had some wonderful campfires in the evening and enjoyed a the quiet and beauty. The sunset views both inside and outside were spectacular. We loved the big windows open to the outdoors, matter where we were, we were surrounded by nature. Also, Rebecca, who helps manage the property was amazingly responsive and supportive when questions came up.

A great option

The cabin was clean and cozy, and the location was great. Close to town yet nestled in a very quiet neighborhood. We saw quite a few folks fishing, so the lake seems like a good fishing spot, but there was a ton of algae, so probably not great for swimming. We decided to drive to other lakes for our beach days. There is Wi-Fi, but it wasn't reliable enough to get some of my work projects sent out, so we had to go into town. We did find a coffee shop called Loco Espress that had great Wi-Fi and fun coffee/tea drinks. Lastly, we brought our two small pups. They had a great time. There were lots of nice places to walk them in the area. We did however get barked and growled at by the three large off-leash neighbor dogs when we went out on the dock, so if you are bringing your pups, be aware. Overall, we had a great stay. Highly recommend.

Lovely quick getaway

My husband and I decided last minute to come up to Brainerd for few day getaway. The location on the lake is beautiful. We brought our SUPs and paddled every day, and did some mountain biking nearby in Cuyuna State Park. Property was perfect for our needs, property manager super responsive, we'd definitely come back here again.

Needs work!!

The cabin was remodeled and cute. Grill was so dirty a fire broke out in the bottom tray because of all the debris. We wanted to switch it out but there was no replacement tray. Landscaping outdoor solar lights outside were all pulled up and all over the place. One was smashed up and I cut my foot on it!! Screen door tracks are so dirty that it's impossible to open and close them and they fall off. We counted 27 woodpecker holds outside the cabin and the woodpecker non-stop pecks at the cabin ALL DAY. Wi Fi cuts out every ten minutes. It's too bad that whoever maintains this property does not do a better job as it has a lot of potential.

Quiet Retreat

The house was a quaint, clean, and quiet place to stay. We very much enjoyed spending time on the dock and on the small balcony outside the sitting area. Owner could spend a little more TLC on the outside spaces, but it really didn't make our stay unpleasant in any way.

Quaint place

Overall nice, quaint place. Quiet, peaceful location. Beds/mattresses need to be updated. Would benefit from more comfortable seating (ie larger couch) in the main area. Had a wonderful, delicious meal from local establishment (Dunmire’s), highly recommend it.

Amazing little find!

Had my family of 5 stay at this propert during Minnesota MEA break. It was such a great find. The property is right on the water and we had some amazing sunsets and sunrises. Property had everything we needed. There is no stove but we read that in description and brought a skillet and pre made food. It worked out well. Awesome location and pretty close to a lot of Brainerd activities. Also being able to use the canoe was fantastic. No one was staying at the bigger property next door so we had the whole place to ourselves. Will definitely go back in the future.

Quick 2 night get away

Nice little cabin, location was secluded enough for privacy but close enough to grab supplies. We were fortunate that the large sister property wasn’t rented same time as our stay so we had the property to ourselves. Had some minor issues while at the cabin but property manger responded quickly. Over all- great stay at the location! Beautiful relaxing place.

Beautiful view!

This cabin is located very close to the lake. The view is magnificent from almost every place in the cabin, especially on the main floor. It’s cozy, warm if needed or air conditioned. Fishing is our new hobby, our kids had so much fun catching and releasing fish! We also love hiking and there is plenty places for that. Will come back and use the cabin again!Thanks

Weekend getaway

We enjoyed our anniversary/baby moon getaway weekend at your cabin. It was easy to get to and close to town. It was fun to bring our boat with and drive up the Mississippi River. The only downside is that I didn’t read the kitchen descriptions close enough so I brought food to make in the oven. We could have used the grills but we decided to grab food out instead. My husband and I talked about coming back to your cabin. We also recommended it to our family and friends when we got home.

An amazing getaway with our dogs:)

This place was absolutely beautiful!! The views were spectacular and the Loon and Eagle sightings and sounds just made it perfect. The location is great for many daytime adventures and we would suggest this home to anyone! Our dogs loved just looking out the windows and wandering around the yard on their leashes:)

Great little cabin!

Had a great stay with very nice views of the lake and wildlife. Love the Loons on the lake and the Bald Eagle cruising the lake and then perching in the trees. There is was also a Osprey Eagle that showed up diving into the lake in front of the cabin grabbing fish.

Thanksgiving weekend stay

The property was nice, and as represented online. We did wish there was an oven in the kitchen as we planned to cook. Additionally, when we arrived, the smoke detector was chirping so we had to go to the store to buy a battery. That took care of the issue until the final night, the smoke alarm went off at 3:00am and there was no smoke or carbon dioxide.
