About this property

Eagle Pines: Rare, Beautiful North Shore of Gull Lake

Beautiful 4 bedroom log cabin on the North shore of Gull Lake near Grand View Lodge in Nisswa. One of two cabins sharing 100 ft of sandy beach. The cabin is a short walk from the beach with beach access including Adirondack chairs and a firepit. Quiet getaway. Minutes from championship golf, bike trails, casual and fine dining, the "Shops of Nisswa," and the famous Chocolate Ox, the area's best ice cream and candy store. Lots of other amenities. Perfect for families, children welcome. Pets welcome for additional fee. Boat lift available for an extra fee of $75 per stay. We have two boatlifts. One holds 3,000 lbs. and the one holds 5,000 lbs. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate pontoons. Preference given to a minimum stay of 7 days in the summer.
Enjoy your getaway!

Beautiful property on lovely site! Unfortunately, there had been a sewer blockage that required us to relocate. Would love to return once plumbing issues are resolved.

Amazing place for a family get together

We choose this cabin to celebrate Christmas with our family and two dogs. It was so cozy and welcoming, and with 4 bedrooms and bathrooms it was still spacious if anyone needed quiet time. The location was amazing too, right next to the lake so we could go ice fishing, and very close to fun Nisswa locations! Highly recommend, and I hope we are able to visit again!

Besides the cleanliness of the home, it was a great stay overall. Little walk to the beach, little walk to the main lodge up the road. Would stay here again for sure!

Beautiful get away in the woods

We rented the cabin to be close to grandview lodge-which was a beautiful snowy walk away. Owners responded quickly to questions. It was large, lots of rooms and bathrooms. For 2 people, it was more than we needed, however i can appreciate the layout amd space. A beautiful kitchen,bedrooms

Awesome Cabin

Our family absolutely loved staying in this beautiful cabin, located in a beautiful woodsy area just a few short steps from Gull Lake. The cabin was clean, comfortable and charming. The host family was very responsive and friendly, and made us feel welcome. There are plenty of fun things to do nearby. We wiuld definitely stay here again.

Very nice!

The cabin suited us very nicely; plenty of room(s) to be together or have some space. Couldn’t really see the lake from the cabin but it was just a short (paved) path past the owners’ cabin to the beach and dock.

Making Memories

It was a great location on Gull Lake. Beautiful area and very clean cabin. The kitchen was well supplied. The lake is hard to see from the cabin and the beach was not well kept. We definitely would stay there again.

Gull Lake Getaway

We enjoyed our stay on Gull Lake. Our hostess Carolyn Jones was wonderful to work with. I had hoped to be right on the beach, but this did include access to the beach and use of a boat lft. It was a great location with Grandview within walking distance.

Great house, great location, very clean

Everything was great. There was even a boat lift available. House was clean. Washer/dryer/iron available. Short distance to town. The only thing that I was surprised by was that it isn't actually on the water. The house sits behind another house that is on the water. Either way, it's a 45 second walk to the shore, so not a big deal at all. Highly recommend for groups!

Gull Lake Getaway

We spent 4 nights at this wonderful cabin located within walking distance to Grandview. We had sole access to a dock and beach for the entire stay. With the 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms we had more than enough room for our family. Would be perfect for multiple families or larger families. Kitchen/great room was the perfect place for the whole family to hang.

Awesome cabin, it would receive a 5 star rating if were actually on the lake! I guess when the description states shared frontage I should have questioned that. Otherwise great place and very inviting! Mike1274

Just Okay

The location of this cabin was perfect for our group of 8 to attend a wedding in Brainerd. We loved that the bedrooms had a variety of set-ups so that single people and couples could all have beds as necessary. The lake was beautiful and a grocery store/ gas was easily accessible. The bathrooms were old, but not dirty. Our biggest problem was the kitchen. We had to pre-wash every dish before we used it, because it seemed like most had been put away dirty. We pre-heated the oven and the entire kitchen filled with smoke, from an oven that seemed to have not been cleaned in a while. We couldn't use it as the smell was terrible. If you're not planning to cook in the kitchen and just enjoy the scenery, this is a great place to stay! But one of the big benefits for us of renting a house is the ability to cook for ourselves. Otherwise, we could have just found a hotel.

Girls week

This stay overall was great spacious, nice to each have their own bathroom. It does not sit on the lake. There is a home that obstructs the view in front of it but it is a short distance to walk to the beach. Location is very convenient the negatives were the bathtubs a little high for the elderly to get in the shower. The downstairs bathroom with the shower, toilet seat is extremely loose and is it safety hazard and should be replaced ASAP. And the only other thing is I’d check with the housekeeping crew about cleaning the oven. It was disgusting definitely hadn’t been cleaned for a while. Also, the The doors on the deck one the screen is off the track, the other one the handle has starting to pull out and needs to be repaired. Even with the small items that need some attention, the stay was good. Thank you.

Great value. Great spot.

Lovely spot.not exactly ON the lake. Gotta walk thru yard of owner but they let you use their beachfront. Great quiet spot. Lots ospace. Beautifully maintained. Owners very friendly and responsive. Close to everything you need. Only drawback: Wasn’t able to use the shower tub in the upstairs bathroom. Just needs shower curtain and mount the hand held shower nozzle and it would be good to go. Had to share the master bath with a guest. Would come back.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Nordlund

Host profile image
Eagle Pines is managed by three sisters. We grew up spending our summers "up north," enjoying all that the area has to offer. It has been a wonderful place to build memories and connecting with family and friends. The area is wonderful for boating, fishing, golfing, exploring the shops and restaurants, biking and so much more. We know how much this area meant to us growing up and we wanted to provide a like experience for others. Our parents were avid golfers and we all spend a lot of time golfing The Pines. Our mother enjoyed looking for eagles and watching the loons on the lake. She would be thrilled to see the eagle's nest that is now in one of our trees. We hope you enjoy all of what the Brainerd area has to offer.
