About this property

2BR Lakefront Cabin w/ Private Launch & Dock

This beautiful and comfortable 2 bedroom, 1 bath lake-front cabin on Pine Mountain Lake is located on a quiet 2 acre lot in the north-woods of Minnesota. Located between Brainerd and Walker MN, there's too many activities for one trip! The perfect cabin for a family getaway or a weekend fishing reunion on one of the best of Minnesota's 10,000 lakes.

Your rental comes with a free dock spot! Interested? Send us an inquiry, or visit us at "Bayside Cabins" online!

Launch and dock located only 100 feet from the cabin. Life jackets can be provided upon request. Personal boats are encouraged (leave it docked your entire stay)! Contact us for more information about local boat rentals if you don't have one of your own.

We most likely won't be available to be around in person during your stay. However, we keep consistent and quick contact with our guests throughout their booking / rental periods.

Outdoor property is large, but shared with the guests in our other cabins on the property as well.

A great fall get away.
Very nice. Cabin was clean and overlooked the lake. The lake was clear. But not any fish close to dock. But did see an otter swimming around. Saw a lot of Minnows next to dock. We had a great time.

Beautiful location
The location is Lovely, but it does appear that the view could be obstructed if the camper sites were filled, the cabin had a lot spiderwebs, otherwise very clean. It had everything you would need if you were cooking at the cabin. It got a bit chilly and the fireplace didn’t want to kick on it appears as if someone turned the gas valve off not sure if that was the owner of person who was before us. We’d love to stay again.

Very clean
The property was just as it was listed except there was a step down into each bedroom which wasn't explained anywhere and my elderly mother had to sleep on the futon which wasn't ideal. It was very clean and the view of the lake was exceptional. We were in the area for a wedding but it would be a wonderful vacation spot.

Nice getaway
Quiet spot to relax but close enough to Itasca, Bemidji and Brainerd for day trips. Listened to the loons, enjoyed the resorts' kayaks, great sunsets over the lake, and surprise fireworks for Corn Days!

Weekend fishing trip
Overall, everything went fairly smoothly. Troy was available for any questions and communications throughout the weekend, which made for an enjoyable experience for me and my friends. Fair warning, the boat launch area is pretty shallow. So be cautious getting your boat off the dock. Lots of weeds and tall grass. But once you're out on the lake, it's great!

Great stay!
Relaxing and quiet. Cabin was relatively clean and had all the essentials. Shower was a little small but sufficient. The other guests were all very nice and inviting. I would definitely stay again!

I loved the stay in this cozy cabin on the lake.
The only two suggestions we had was the Smaller bed needs to be replaced as it sinks in the middle and makes a lot of noise and the coffee pot needs replacing. Great weekend otherwise and would come back again for sure.

It was fine. Well stocked kitchen. We liked the screened porch. Step to bedrooms could be dangerous. Shower is too tight.

Quick get away.
Cabin had everything we needed. Actually had lightning hit the cabin in a storm that rolled through. Jeff had quick response, someone was there to check on things within an hour. Very friendly seasonal campers there also. Only disappointment for the kids was, there is no longer a volleyball court.

Very nice spot
The location of the cabin relative to surrounding cabins was slightly misleading and the numerous 5th wheel campers were certainly a surprise. To advertise that the cabin had 2 acres doesn't take into account that is shared with several other cabins and about half a dozen 5th wheel campers. All of that aside, we had a wonderful time at the cabin/lake. It was just the getaway that our family needed and would definitely stay there again.
