Beautiful guest house on a Great Lake. Fully stocked kitchen for cooking, deck and fire pit ready for s’mores, friendly relaxed atmosphere, and a grill for guest use. The lake is beautiful and clear for swimming and fishing. We loved the convenience of using the dock for both fishing and swimming. Homeowners were friendly and accommodating. Would recommend and would stay again 100%!

We had a great time. The guesthouse had plenty of books, boardgames and even family friendly movies on DVDs. Our kids loved the movie selections they had- helped to keep the kids mind off Netflixs etc. The kitchen was missing a few essentials but Krista and Casey were very responsive. Lake was very clean, we had a great time tubing and fishing ! Would highly recommend the stay here. We'll be back!

Such a great time on Nokay Lake! The place had everything we needed plus fun extras that made time at the lake fun and memorable. The lake was perfect for our kids and dog and just a nice set up to relax and feel safe in the water at the same time. The cabin was very clean and relaxing with both an upper deck and lower patio that were nice to hang out on, grill and have a fire. Just a really great experience and so thankful for the vacation we had and memories we made. Thanks!

Great Lake trip!

thanks again for your wonderful hospitality and making our family trip truly memorable. We loved having a second house across the lake from the rest of our family… actually made it more fun to go back and forth on the water and have a change of scenery The outdoor area was great for eating together. And having all the kayaks and water activities after our pontoon boat went back was fantastic yesterday! Beds were comfy and we loved the huge living room space to gather and play games, cards, and just hang out and watch the rain. We would love to come back!

Fantastic Place and View

Quiet neighborhood with great lake views. Beds are very comfortable, extra soft sheets and new carpet with extra thick pad. Everything tidy and maintained. Very nice family and location. We had storms come through over the evening and we didn't hear anything. Road dead-ends a few places down so little or no traffic, good for walks and pet's. Lot's of deer, wild turkeys and Loons.

Top Choice

The two of us stayed at the Quiet Guest House on Nokay Lake. July 6-15, 2024. The accommodations were comfortable and well-done. The setting and access to Nokay Lake were exceptional. And the Millers as hosts were easily available to answer questions, make dining recommendations or fishing advice. We look forward to future, relaxing stays at the Guest House. Rating: 10.

Excellent property near local attractions

Perfect spot for our family summer vacation. Our young boys fished, road bikes & enjoyed all the fun spots Brainerd has to offer. My husband & I enjoyed the down time, views & local breweries.

Yearly Family Vacation

Appreciated the reservation process to ensure that we were a fit for the property. The check-in was super simple and hassle free. Even though the owner was in their own house on the property, we did not see them nearly as often as expected, and when we did it was not awkward at all. We had some good conversation with the owners as well. The property was exactly as described and was quite clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend this property for a family vacation!

Relaxing get a way

We had a wonderful stay on Nokay Lake. Our hosts were extremely responsive to our questions prior to our stay and accessible for questions once we checked in. From help putting in and taking our boat out of the water to general conversation Casey was extremely accommodating and completely MN nice! The beds were comfortable and our grandkids enjoyed the bunk bed aspect. Close to cute small towns to explore but peaceful enough that you really don’t want to leave. We highly recommend a stay.

Wonderful cabin getaway!!

My family and I stayed at this property in mid-June and it was just perfect for the four of us. It was myself, my husband and my two kids ages 3 and 6. The cabin was clean, had everything we needed and matched the description/pictures in the listings. The hosts Casey and Christa were kind and welcoming and answered any questions that we had. The lake was clean and perfect for swimming and fishing. The cabin is not far from downtown Brainard so it’s a quick drive to any activities that the area has to offer. I would definitely recommend staying at this cabin, you will not be disappointed!
