Cabin was clean, well stocked, quiet and had a beautiful lake view. It had everything that we needed and a bonus was that it was pet friendly. It was also located close to Brainerd and many attractions. We had a wonderful vacation and would definitely recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful girls weekend. The cabin is stocked with amenities we all need during our stay. The cabin was warm and cozy and the beds were so comfortable! The atmosphere outside the cabin is rustic and peaceful. Perfect little simple place with a beautiful view of the lake and beautiful sunsets. We all agreed we would come back for sure. Cabin was clean and smelled good. Thank you also for being so responsive to our messages when we messaged you. Easy check in and check out too!

Peaceful cabin - beware of poison ivy

We enjoyed our stay here - the windows overlooking the lake are beautiful and the furnishings are mostly updated. However, as a previous review mentioned, there is a lot of poison ivy growing around the property. I wouldn’t have even noticed (or expected to have poison ivy growing around a vacation rental) and things might have gone south if our dog had gotten into it. Note that the “get directions” button will lead you to the neighbors house, and that the cabin is not the first house you see when you drive into the property, but rather to the left side, through some unkempt walkways, and down rather large steps to the front door.

Good stay, clean and comfortable.

Good things: Clean and modern interior. Great lake views. Good communication. Outside grill was good. Caught bluegills, bass, pike, bullheads and catfish.Quirks: Steps to cabin not even. Grass wasn't trimmed to water's edge, I had to buy a trimmer to knock down high weeds and sticks and stuff so we could fish from back yard.

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.

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.

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.

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:)

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
