About this property

Vintage Cabin on Beautiful Lake O'brien - Includes Pontoon Boat

If you are looking for the true cabin experience, look no further! This classic 1950's property includes a 2 bedroom/1 bath main cabin, 1 bedroom/1 bath guest house, and a free standing sauna; all in a stand of mature pine trees that will take your breathe away. The property was purchased by my wife and I in 2017 and was completely renovated. A small but efficient layout, the main cabin has 2 bedrooms with double beds, a 3/4 bath, living room with wood burning fireplace and dining room with great lake views. The kitchen includes a 2 burner cooktop, a microwave/convection oven combo, fridge and a single bowl sink. The indoor space flows to an outdoor area with fire pit and grill. The rental comes complete with a pontoon boat (2018 Bennington), and a new large platform dock that makes spending time on the lake simple and enjoybale! For those that like to stay connected or not miss the big game, both the main and guest cabin have high definition TV's with local cable service, and both structures have free Wi-Fi. In addition, both structures include air conditioning for those muggy summer nights! And for those cooler nights, the property has a free standing sauna with electric heater. Take a dip in the lake afterwards to complete your sauna experience!

Situated 5 mile east of the town of Crosslake, crystal clear Lake O'Brien is spring fed with a water clarity of 24', making it one of the cleanest two lakes in the entire watershed district! The lake itself is surrounded by mature pines. There is approximately 5 miles of shoreline, of which about a quarter of the lake is undeveloped state owned property. During the summer, this recreational lake is perfect for fishing, skiing, wake boarding, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding and all other water based activities, including just floating on an air mattress!! It's location a quiet tar township road make it perfect for a morning walk or bike ride.

Our property is perfect for a family of up to 6 or a few couples. We have a strict limit of 6 due to the size of the cabins. We do keep our calendar updated and so if you are seeing availability then it's likely available. Upon reservation and prior to your stay you'll receive a complete 'what to bring' list so you are prepared for your time up north. Feel free to inquire with any questions you may have and we'll be prompt to reply! We pride ourselves on keeping our property in and structures/equipment in great condition and are certain we'll exceed your expectations in that regard. And further since we also live on the same lake, should any questions ro problems arise we can respond quickly. In fact, your only disappointment will be when you have to leave!!

The pontoon boat is typically in the water and available for use from mid-May to the beginning of October.

Cozy Cabins!
We loved our stay here! Everything was so beautiful! Our favorite places to hang out were the firepit and the outdoor porch. The bedding and mattresses are so comfortable! We went hiking at a local trail, came back and made soup on the stove, played cards and had s’mores by the firepit. The fact that we could bring the dogs too was so nice! I love all the decorative touches in both cabins. Perfect getaway. Can’t wait to come back!

My husband and I decided to schedule a staycation in MN to celebrate our 30th Wedding Anniversary. We couldn’t have chosen a better location. We were blessed with beautiful fall weather and the coziest accommodations. The cabin sits on a hill with direct access to Lake O’Brien. When outside on the cobblestone patio, the large pines, various trees, and views of lakes on both sides of the property provided the perfect backdrop to soak in the fall colors. We had daily bonfires 🔥fished from shore, and relaxed in the extra sunroom watching the beautiful sunsets. I even did a polar plunge in the evening with our dog Scout! The cabin had a wonderful cozy atmosphere, was pet friendly, and made some great memories of evenings spent conversing and reflecting on the last 30 years. We would recommend for any couple or family to stay at the White Cabin to unwind, unplug and get reconnected!

Awesome gateway w/ top notch host(s)!
Went up with my wife, 17month daughter, parents and my wife’s parents and we all have a GREAT time! Jeff and Lindsay are wonderful people and they have a very special place that they have kept up wonderfully! The lake is very nice and if you’re a fisherman it’s a great place to fish as we had great success fishing out on the lake! Would certainly recommend and would return if given the chance 👍👍

Amazing time!
Property was wonderful. We especially loved the sunroom area. Lindsay came to show us how to drive the pontoon, it was easier than we thought it would be. 🙄 Would absolutely come back again. We also enjoyed a day trip to Nisswa, which was recommended by Lindsay as well. A great time all around!
