Beautiful home that worked great with 8 people / could have slept a few more and still had enough space. All supplies from the kitchen to the bathrooms were well appointed. Heated floors a bonus - it’s nested in surrounding woods and a cozy northern MN vibe. We will be back next year.

Amazing location, so much gathering space!

We visited with three families and everyone had so much space. Great fully equipped kitchen to easily cook meals. So close to so many awesome attractions. We had so much fun! The kids enjoyed playing outside in the sand, with the water toys, and on the trampoline. Great place—would return again.

Wonderful!

We so enjoyed our stay in this lovely home! It was our family and our friend’s family. The home suited our needs perfectly. Our host was amazing to work with. Got back to us immediately with any questions we had, was willing to let us have an early check in. The place is beautiful. Stocked well. Very clean. We are looking forward to spending the same week there next year.

Beautiful and comfortable lake home perfect for family vacation

This is a lovely, large, and cozy home which was perfect for our family of four to get away for a few days. The house has everything you'd need, and we loved the comfortable beds, spacious and modern kitchen, open dining area, and large living room with comfy couches, a vaulted ceiling, huge television, and plenty of space for games, reading, and relaxing. Though the weather was typical for early April in Minnesota (cold and wet), we were perfectly cozy in this house and had no need to leave for much. The weather was nice enough one day for a long walk down Leisure Lane right by the lake, and we were able to grill and build a fire for smores. We also enjoyed both a lunch and a dinner at the nearby Paradise Resort Bar and Grill, which had really good food, friendly service, and great daily specials. The owner was excellent about communication, available for any questions or concerns we might have had. I would highly recommend a stay at this gorgeous lake home!

Long Winter Weekend

This cabin was everything and more! We spent one of our four days checking out Brainerd’s thrift shops, but the rest of the time we holed up in the comfy cozy cabin. The heated floors are so luxurious, the kitchen had every tool we needed, and the mattress were so. Comfy. And the space itself was so beautiful! We’ll definitely be back!

Awesome Getaway

We had a wonderful getaway with a group of 10 of us. The cabin was amazing with all the items you need. Kitchen was fully furnished, couches were very comfortable and bedrooms were big. The place is well kept and Pav was great at communicating and letting us check in a little earlier. I would recommend this place to anyone. You’ll have a great time and enjoy being in a cabin.

Definitely Recommend

There probably isn't enough space here to list all of the things we enjoyed about the property. It is a beautiful, private cabin. It was very clean with so many extra amenities, extra toothbrushes, everything you would need for cooking, grill with an extra propane tank, games, filled ice trays, etc. We had the best time sitting around the big table (room for 8) playing games. We are a group of women ages 20-68, so having our own temp control for each room was great! Pavel was absolutely fabulous to work with, super quick response time and very friendly and helpful. Being a Finnish family, we would loved to have used that adorable sauna but it was not listed as an amenity so I can't complain. Excellent get away. Would stay again!

Family Getaway

The house is top notch, all the amenities you could ask for. We wanted a place to take our two young boys for the weekend and this delivered very well. Most rentals have old and outdated furnishings and appliances, but this is very modern and updated. They even added little touches like extra toothbrushes or shampoo (individually wrapped, factory sealed) which was nice. Lake is walkable and we explored some of the woods around the house as well. There isn't a ton of land so you aren't totally secluded, you can see the neighbors, but it's very quiet. All in all, wehad no issues or complaints, it was a great spot close to the cities and we'll definitely be back.
