Our stay was perfect. The cabin has authentic MN charm with the luxuries of home. The location on a quiet environmental lake was a perfect way to relax. The water makes for the best crystal clear swim. The lake even has trout and wonderful MN wildlife including loons. We had an unforgettable stay and we will be back!

A group of 3 girls escaping for the weekend and we picked the perfect spot! The cabin was incredibly charming and clean with everything we needed and more. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and chocolates which was quite a treat. The hosts were kind and very responsive to a few questions we had during our stay. The cabin is close to restaurants, bars and a walking path to be out and about. The lake was exactly what we were looking for to relax, float, listen to music and swim. It’s very clean and surrounded by trees and wild life. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.
Nature!

Wonderful Cabin

The log cabin is truly charming! It was clean and well stocked. Pleasant lake is beautiful, quiet and relaxing. It was awesome that the rental included a kayak and paddleboard. Our hosts were wonderful, and checked in with us to make sure we didn’t need anything.

Fantastic family getaway

This was the perfect getaway for our family of four. The property is well-appointed and comfortable. The location is unmatched. It is close to all the action but also has the calm and quiet of Pleasant Lake when you are ready to unwind. We have rented from this owner three years in a row now and have nothing but positive things to say.

Great VRBO

We thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated our stay at Rob and Leslie’s cabin. They have more than one so check them out. Lovely hosts, so much included in the rental….beach/ boat towels, spices, aluminum foil etc, charging cables… really they have thought this out. I loved the “rustic” aspects but no way think that means uncomfortable. In fact, I’d take that recliner home. The “quiet” lake out back and active Cross Lake a stones throw away. What more could you ask for. Enjoy

Girls weekend getaway

We had an incredible time at the charming log cabin. The lake, setting and cabin were perfect for four women looking to unplug for a few days. Rob and Leslie were wonderful, they checked in on us and were so quick to respond to questions. The water was so clean and clear, we spent hours on the dock and deck. We will be back!

Hidden Gem!

This property did not disappoint! The hosts have thought of everything needed to make the stay easy and enjoyable from spices and condiments in the kitchen to a basket of nicely rolled beach towels by the lakeside door. I can be easily uncomfortable in new places but not here. Pleasant Lake was wonderful, clear, and quiet. We enjoyed every minute in and out of the cabin.

Log Cabin Stay On Pleasant Lake - Crosslake MN

Beautiful classic cabin on a private environmental lake was perfect. The grounds and cabin are immaculate and having the small private lake was great for fishing and swimming. The owners are extremely nice and thought of everything to make our stay great. They were even nice to rent us their personal pontoon which was luxurious and perfect for navigating the gorgeous white fish chain.

Wonderful in so many ways

The cabin was beautiful…comfortable and clean and quiet. The location, near Crosslake, was close enough to town for convenience and easy access to groceries and restaurants yet far enough away to get away from traffic. Rob and Lesley were great hosts and communicated well throughout. Based on the cabin and the hosts, our trip was awesome.

Perfect getaway spot

This beautiful log cabin more than lives up to its posting on VRBO. It’s conveniently located within minutes of the Crosslake business area, yet it feels like it’s off the beaten path. The paved, off-street trail that goes past the cabin is great for running or walking. One of the highlights is the large dock with four comfortable chairs and a rug. A ‘heads up’ (more accurately, a ‘heads down’) to anyone over six feet tall: the doorways in this charming cabin are low - about six feet, so you will need to duck when you go from room to room. Other than that, this place is fantastic.

Rustic & Charming Retreat

Super cute authentic log cabin on a beautiful small lake. Lots of charm and fun decor with the modern conveniences. Large yard, lots of space for parking. Great size kitchen and hosts were gracious and welcoming. Loved the private dock with seating as we watched the loons while drinking our coffee and wine. Nice deck overlooking the lake with grill and lots of seating. Also great fire pit area!

Tranquil Out-of-Time Relaxation....

The cabin is my perfect style...exposed logs, comfortable furniture and bed, decor Ralph Lauren, lake right there, galley kitchen with everything I need (I'm a chef). But, what is exceptional about this property is Pleasant Lake, a serene, all to yourself, clean with no motor boats lake. There is a lovely dock with umbrella and chairs, a kayak and waterboard and 3 loons and an eagle for endless entertainment. My husband and I, wound ever so tight , actually relaxed during our week on Pleasant Lake and we thank Rob and Leslie for all they did to make that happen!

Summer fun

This property is quite the treasure! Location is perfect. Wide selection of things to do in the area but the best part of our stay was the serenity of the lake in our back yard. Cabin and grounds are well kept, clean and the owners are very responsive and accommodating. This was year #2 for us and hoping to make this a regular stop each summer. Susan

This has been the best VRBO stay by far. We definitely over packed. The owners have thought of everything. They had all bathing items available, cooking supplies (spices, olive oil, coffee, ketchup, mustard etc.), plenty of beach towels and swimming gear. Absolutely loved our stay.

Cozy Cabin

This log cabin is perfectly rustic, clean, and cozy. We enjoyed our long weekend paddle boarding, listening to loon calls, and enjoying the outdoor bonfire. The kitchen is well stocked with essentials, including plastic cups to take outside. The location is convenient to lakes and restaurants. The owners are kind and gracious to share their cabin.

Tranquil paradise

Everything about this cabin is perfect! It has the best of both worlds as it is set on a charming semi -private lake, but if you’d prefer to go boating and take advantage of the larger lake right next to it, you have access to that as well ( only a short walk across the street). The property is immaculate and the cabin is a dream. Perfect size for 2 couples or a small family. The owners stopped by to introduce themselves and were eager to help with anything we might need. We will absolutely stay here again and hopefully rent the one next door which they also own.

Best of both worlds

We loved our time at this cabin. The hosts thought of everything. There was nothing we thought "gee, I wish the cabin had X." The cabin was exactly like the pictures. The furniture and bed were very comfy. Everything was clean and well kept. The cabin is on a small private lake. We spent most of our time on the large dock, which serves as a patio on the lake. It was wonderful having a kayak to paddle around in. Then we went across the street to our rented pontoon boat and cruised the Whitefish Chain. It was the perfect size cabin for my husband and me. We will be back!

A pleasant time at pleasant lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cabin. The owners were great and the cabin had everything needed for a fun and relaxing time. The lake was great for using the kayak and paddle board. There was a great biking and walking path to use. We enjoyed watching and listening to the loons on the lake.
