Cute very clean cabin!

This 1950s cabin is very well kept, and very clean!! The hosts were amazing and like I said everything was immaculate! Even the fire pit, which they had stacked very nice, and was ready for a fire. So quiet and serene. We were up for a graduation party, and it was a nice getaway and super close to friends of ours. Would love to stay here again!

Peaceful and Laid Back

Fantastic little cottage. Great Hosts!!!! Fold out sofa was not comfortable, but none are. Single cot worked better. Camp fire at night and listening to the loons talk to each other, with the Big Dipper overhead, was memory making.

The cabin was adorable, clean and comfortable. My husband was disappointed with the accessibility to the lake and fishing. Not able to fish without a boat.

The Perfect Cottage for 2!

We absolutely loved this cottage! We were celebrating our anniversary with a hiking getaway and this was the perfect spot to begin and end our day. We especially loved sitting outside and listening to the birds. I’m pretty sure we’ll plan on staying for a week next time and set aside an entire day just to relax and enjoy the outdoor space. All of the furniture is very comfortable and the appliances all work perfectly. I can’t think of a single thing I would change other than that I wish we could come more often!

Great Up North Cottage

My wife, our 3 year old daughter and myself had a great weekend at Joan and Tom’s cottage. Tucked back, quite and cozy, yet still very close to all Pequot Lakes has to offer. The kitchen had everything we needed. The setting is so relaxing and peaceful. Wonderful memories were made. We really enjoyed taking the pontoon out for sunset cruises around beautiful Sibley Lake, star gazing and enjoying fires at night. Pequot Lakes has always been a special place for our family. We can’t thank the lovely hosts enough. We’ll be back.

A Minnesota Retreat

My husband and I are on a two-month road trip which we started by heading out of south Arizona to this amazing little vintage cottage for three whole weeks. If you enjoy cozy and vintage charm, this is your place to stay. Nestled in a quiet area on the owners’ property, it was pleasant, peaceful, clean and cozy. Joan and Tom are the ultimate hosts and have many amenities ready for your stay. We cooked in the roomy and well equipped kitchen, enjoyed the patio under the giant fir trees and grilled dinner outside several times. We were close to grocery and dining as well as enjoying the Pequot Lakes annual Bean Hole Festival held in town. Don’t miss this one…it’s a true gem. Thank you, Joan and Tom, for an unforgettable stay! Jan & Ed

Long weekend getaway

The vintage cottage is clean and very comfortable. The vintage touches added to the charm. We loved the outdoor firepit. The weather cooperated and we were able to spend 2 nights enjoying sitting by the fire. One whole afternoon was spent just sitting by the lake. It was so peaceful and quiet. There are very good options for food close by in both Pequot and Nisswa. Nisswa has a really nice area with local shops, a brewery and ale house.

The cottage is very clean, decorated 50's style. The patio w fire pit was very relaxing. & quiet. The only down side is that you cannot see the lake from the cabin. Loved the tall pines. Hosts are super .

Vintage Cottage was Perfect

The cottage was clean, immaculate and the setting was just right. The dock was easily accessible so we launched at the local Public Water Access and docked the boat the whole weekend. Great for getting out on short little bits of fishing. The owners were very accommodating and communicated just the right amount. The cottage is quiet but still in a location where access to the Brainerd Lakes/Nisswa area was super simple.

About the host

Hosted by Joan

Host profile image
We moved to this area a few years ago. Our only regret is we didn't move here sooner! Sibley Lake is one of the most beautiful lakes I've ever seen. Shh - it's a secret - but there's some really good fishing on the lake too! And we love hanging out at the sandbar on the lake.
In addition, we are located near some of the best fine dining in the Brainerd Lakes Area. Fun abounds everywhere and includes riding or hiking the trails, shopping, dining, fishing, kayaking, etc. Come, relax and enjoy our cottage! We look forward to hosting you! Joan & Tom

Why they chose this property

I live adjacent to the cottage to assist with any needs you may have; however, there is a privacy fence between the properties that allows the privacy you desire. Guests are welcome to stroll our property to the calming, forestry boardwalk/steps which wind down to beautiful Sibley Lake with canoe/kayak access to Mayo Lake. In addition, there is a wooded hiking trail to the lake! There is also a private fire pit next to the cottage, you can enjoy the fire pit near the water as well! Come, relax, and enjoy!

Pontoon available upon request and availability!
