Guys golf trip
This place was sweet. I had 9 guys come up for a golf trip and it was the perfect fit for us. It’s decently small but we thought it was cozy. Would definitely recommend for a weekend!

Very clean house! Could use salt & pepper spices. No shampoo or body wash in showers, even though it said it is provided…Could also use a box of Kleenex in bathrooms. Did have a tiny bit of smokers smell, but I understand how hard that is to get rid of. Well stocked kitchen! Even a pellet grill! A very nice quiet neighborhood and easy to get to. Family friendly with the fenced in backyard and swing set. My friends and I felt right at home. Would definitely book again.

Very spacious and clean
My buddies and I came up to Brainerd for the weekend to head to Brainerd International Speedway and needed a place to stay the night. This property exceeded expectation with how much rooms there was both inside the house and in the back yard. Plenty of room for us to hangout in the living room/Kitchen and have a comfortable bonfire in the back as well. I would definitely recommend and come back.
