June ‘25
Family of twelve. 3 bedrooms were great and bedroom downstairs was ok for kids. Hard with just 2 bathrooms and only three rolls of toilet paper for 4 day stay was not adequate. The house, deck, porch, and yard are great! The walk to the dock/lake is very long and difficult for grandparents and actually a pain every time you want to go on the lake. We enjoyed our stay, but wish we knew how far the house was from the lake.

Wonderful Home on the lake
Wonderful home on the lake! Property is as described and Ashley was quick to respond with a solution to the one minor issue we had. Comfy beds, nice amenities, and a nice open space for spending time with friends or family.

Perfect setting for girlfriend weekend.
We had 9 ladies, we do an annual girlfriend weekend and this year we wanted a low key weekend. This little slice of heaven on the lake did not disappoint. Beautiful views, quiet location, more than enough room to spread out and relax. The owners responded quickly to any communication, the home was clean and well maintained. The towels and beds were clean. This was a perfect place for a little getaway up north. Close to restaurants and shopping as well.

Exactly what we needed for MEA break
The boardwalk on North Long Lake ticked all the boxes to host family from out of state over the long MEA weekend.
The three bedrooms took care of lodging for the adults and the basement bedroom had enough beds for the kids. The open concept of the family room, dining room and kitchen allowed for everyone to feel connected. The hot tub was a nice addition allowing for early morning soaks and catch amazing sunsets in the evening.
The lake, while a bit of a walk for those who may have trouble getting around, was a nice space to hang out and I could imagine lots of fun being in the nice sandy lake during the summer.
Brainerd is just a few minutes away for groceries and a 20 minute drive to some of the best mountain biking in the state at Cuyuna.
Lot's of televisions if that's your jam. Only downside? The neighbors on both side love their leaf blowers but hey, that's the fall season in Minnesota.
