About this property

Peaceful Lake Retreat!!

Welcome to peace and privacy on the lake! What makes this great cabin unique for a relaxing getaway is the privacy! There is 200' of sandy lakeshore with 2 canoes and a four person paddle boat that are available for your use. There is a public launch on the lake and you are welcome to bring your boat and use the dock or check with us for the availability of renting a pontoon for the duration of your stay. Nightly rate does not include pontoon. Dock available May - September. In the winter months, we are located directly on the hundreds of miles of groomed snowmobile trails. The entrance to the trails is right across our side yard and there is plenty of room to park your trailer. The private yard is large and level with a bonfire pit next to the lake. Inside, there is a great room with a gas fireplace and cozy seating, a nice size kitchen stocked with all the essentials. There are three bedrooms, one with a king bed, one with a queen bed, and the third with a queen bed and bunk beds for a comfortable night's rest. Also, the 3 season porch gets continual 5 star reviews for its views and comfort. Great restaurants and shopping are just minutes away in Crosslake. If you want more of a city feel, Brainerd is within a half hour drive with great towns like Pequot Lakes and Nisswa along the way! This comfortable cabin makes for a great family or friends getaway any time of the year!

Our go-to MN cabin experience

We love this cabin and location so much, we booked two stays this year! The cabin is the perfect combination of quaint/modern, comfortable, well-equipped, and located on a quiet lake, surrounded by beauty and wildlife. We look forward to returning next year. The host genuinely cares about the guest experience. Thanks, Lynne! 😁

Should have been better

$3,300 for the week and we had mice in the cabin! Saw one in the bedroom and mice droppings in several places! We went out and bought mice traps! Totally unacceptable!

The perfect place to gather!

If I could give 6 stars out of 5 on all of these categories I would! Our group was continuously blown away by the comfort and care put into this home and the experience for the guests from our hosts! The layout of this home is perfect for a group of friends or family to move from the cozy living room, into the inviting porch, out onto the patio to grill for dinner, and then down to the dock and lake for swimming! The inside was PERFECTLY clean which made check-in and getting settled so easy and comfortable. The guest rooms including the beds and linens were abundant and cozy. We all got great sleep and some of us slept in later than we ever have with the blackout shades down. We weren’t even 2 nights into our stay before we were texting Lynne asking to extend our booking! We can’t wait to return! The only negative is that the home is too comfy so we never wanted to leave and get out and explore Crosby and Crosslake nearby :) Can’t recommend this stay enough! Thank you, Lynne!

Perfect getaway cabin

This was a great stay for my family and I, including 4 adults and 3 kids. The property was perfect size, large back for the kids to run around, comfortable beds, and everything you need for a week's getaway. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly, and quick to respond. We would love to come back again next year!

Communing with Nature

I was looking to get out of the city to reconnect with myself and nature. This cabin is one of my favorite places on earth and only 2.5 hours from Minneapolis. If you are looking for a peaceful lake-life experience, this spot can't be beat. The cabin is comfortable, cozy, well-equipped, modern, yet has rustic vibes. Lynne, the host, is responsive and easy to work with. I look forward to my next stay!

Peaceful

Location of lake home is perfect for a quiet week away. The screened in porch is wonderful for looking out over the lake. Our dog loved swimming in the lake and watching all the fish around the dock. The yard was perfect for playing fetch too. We enjoyed watching the geese, ducks and ground squirrels. We’re already planning our next trip to the lake house.

Cozy cabin vibes with a view!

Clean, cozy, beautiful fall lake view, comfy beds, 3 season porch and an outdoor space to enjoy. Brand new grill made cooking a breeze and the new laundry was a bonus! Breathtaking fog rolling off the lake. Great place to unwind, connect, and explore. Our family took our bikes into Cuyuna- great spot! Nearby towns for groceries and amazing ice cream. We will be returning!!! Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Incredible Property, Absolutely Loved It!

We have stayed at numerous VRBO properties in northern MN but this was our favorite one! Location is perfect, remote and private yet close to towns, saw a lot of wildlife each day, beautiful lake, large yard, and the cabin itself is very clean and updated, just perfect! We plan on staying here again in the future, owners are great people too!

Great getaway!

Great getaway for the family to sit back, relax and have some quiet time away. Very peaceful lake retreat that was in excellent condition and one of the best stocked VRBO houses we’ve stayed at. Lake was excellent with plenty of fish and great for paddle boarding. Will definitely look it up again if in the area! Thanks!

Perfect!

Lynne was so wonderful to work with. You cannot ask for a more responsive property owner! The space is so lovely and cozy. The lack of close neighbors makes it even better (if you like that sort of thing like we do). There is a very lovely 3 season porch we were unable to use due to the weather, but it is definitely worth mentioning!!! Thanks for a short but lovely stay!!

Endless activities include fishing, boating waterskiing, swimming, hiking, four wheeling and biking. A 4-person paddleboat, canoe and dock are available for guest use. In the winter this is the perfect spot for that snowmobiling get away with access to hundreds of miles of snowmobile trails right in the side yard!
Crosslake is 5 minutes away and has several excellent restaurants to choose from along with fun shops to visit . Brainerd is less than a 30 minute drive and has a bigger city feel with smaller towns like Pequot Lakes and Nisswa to enjoy along the way. It makes for a fun shopping experience. Crosby is 15 minutes south and is known as "The Antique Capital of the Lakes Area" The 5 mile Cuyuna Lakes State Trail is open to biking and horse back riding enthusists and is within 25 minutes.

What makes this property unique

This property boasts 200' of beautiful, relaxing lakeshore without neighboring docks being right next to you. The large 1.5 acre lot gives the guests plenty of space to move about. In the winter months there is access right next to the property to hundreds of miles of groomed snowmobiles trails. No more having to load and unload sleds.
