80th Birthday
The property was nice. However it would have been nice to know that to get down to the lake from the main level of the house there were 70+ stair steps. This was not reflected in the pictures online or mentioned at all. Loved the kayaks and paddle boat. Kitchen utensils and pans could use an upgrade. We were unable to get tv in basement to work. (I didn’t inform owner). Owner was very nice and responsive to any questions

Fantastic Lake Rental
We had a fantastic stay at Crosslake (on Trout Lake). We went for a wedding and it was so easy. The house is large enough and has plenty of space to spread out. There was only 6 of us, several working and no issues with WiFi. The rest of the stay we spent mainly down by the dock enjoying the water. We highly recommend the house. I would suggest a car rental, we did not have one and access to taxis and uber were almost non existent.

MN Lake Visit
We enjoyed our stay at this cabin on beautiful Big Trout Lake. Plenty of room for our group of 15 and wonderfully responsive owner. We enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boat. Be aware that there is a steep stairway down to the lake but it's sturdy and there are railings.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Bolin

Host profile image
Brian and Lindsey acquired this property in August 2022. They love the lake cabin life and thought this was the perfect opportunity to have our two sons Jack (7) and Leo (4) get to experience it as well as other guests who love the lake. Brian grew up on the waters of Lake Mille Lacs and was always found to be on the waters or in the woods. He was a fishing guide on Mille Lacs for 8 years while in college. Lindsey was born and raised in Grand Forks, ND but always enjoyed getting away to the lake.

Recently, we moved back from Naples, FL to be closer to family and enjoy the 4 seasons. We can't wait to share our lake cabin with you and hope you enjoy making memories with family and friends by the lake as much as we do!!

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location!! Our cabin is lakeside with all the water amenities and proximity to everything by any mode of transportation you choose! Boating, swimming, snowmobiling, biking or relaxing by the fire inside or out. This cabin has it all.

What makes this property unique

Nestled in the privacy of the pines on Big Trout Lake on the Whitefish Chain all while only 5 minutes from Crosslake. Great location to all the local dining and nightlife! Excellent for boaters as well as snowmobilers with this location and access to all the chain has to offer. So many ways to explore the area by boat, bike, snowmobile or vehicle!

There are also 8 golf courses within 15 minutes of our place. The paved bike path right across the driveway that allows you to bike the local neighborhood. Snowmobile trail goes right in front of the cabin on big trout lake connecting to many of the other local area trail systems. ATV/UTV trails nearby as well.

Inside there is plenty of sleeping and large gathering areas. A projector and large screen within our oversized loft is available for movies with the kids or football games. Snuggle up near the fireplace for those cool fall nights or winter days!

A large dock to swim off of as well as dock all your water toys. Kayaks on site as well as fishing boat available to rent. Swimming platform out from the dock and paddleboat onsite as well. On the shore there is a large firepit, hammocks and sitting areas to enjoy your time down by the water. Rinse off the sand in our unique outdoor shower before heading in to utilize the many cooking options (full kitchen, grill, smoker) to chef up the next meal.
