Welcome to Northern Ties Cabin on North Long Lake- Your Four-Season Getaway in Brainerd, MN
Your Northwoods escape on the shores of North Long Lake, where every season brings its own kind of magic. This handcrafted log home offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, creating a space where families and friends can gather, relax, and make lasting memories. In the summer months, mornings begin with coffee on the deck as the sun sparkles on the water. A short stroll—or an easy golf cart ride—down the wooded path leads you to the lake, where the day unfolds with swimming, boating, and laughter along the shoreline. Guests are welcome to bring or rent a pontoon or watercraft to enjoy the lake. After a day on the water, unwind around the fire pit or share dinner on the patio while the sounds of the lake fade into the night. For motorsport enthusiasts, this home includes four season passes to Brainerd International Raceway available for guest purchase, offering an exciting addition to your Northwoods adventure. The included golf cart makes it easy to move between the house, lake, and nearby activities. As the weather turns crisp, the home transforms into a cozy winter retreat. Guests can soak in the outdoor hot tub beneath a blanket of stars or curl up by the stone fireplace as snow falls quietly outside. With its spacious layout and warm atmosphere, the home is ideal for multi-family vacations, holiday gatherings, or a peaceful escape from the everyday. Whether you’re here for sunny lake days, autumn trails, or winter nights by the fire, this North Long Lake retreat offers a true four-season experience—where every visit feels like coming home.

Exactly as pictured! Everything was clean and well organized. Definitely felt well cared for. The treadmill didn’t work during our stay unfortunately, but we used the other workout equipment for our stay. Hot tub was lovely. Kitchen was well stocked an everything else was in working order. Comfortable sleeping and very responsive host!

We're so glad you had such a wonderful time! Thank you so much for your stay and for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed your time with us. Just to clarify for future guests, this home does not include a treadmill as an amenity. We're glad you enjoyed the stay and hope to host you again, soon!
Loved staying in this cabin with friends. We were there from NYE and through the weekend. Very spacious common areas (kitchen, living room, dining area) which included a pool table. The hot tub was definitely the cherry on top! The place was very clean and kitchen had all appliances needed and more. Was a bit worried about the parking situation but the group had small vehicles so there was plenty of parking for everyone.Thanks again for letting us stay!
