Family trip to lake

We had the most wonderful time at this cabin. It was in a perfect location and had everything you need right on sight. The hosts checked in during our stay to ensure we were having fun and found things in the house. The beach is perfect for kids to play in the sand all day. This is a perfect family getaway and we will definitely be back.

Nice cabin with a great host!

We stayed for a week this summer at this cabin and it was great! It was spacious, clean, and the host was amazing and easy to get a hold of. Attractions were nearby and easy to get to, but the property was far enough away from town. On the weekends you can hear the race track, if that is something you're concerned about. We had a great time and we are so happy we found this place for our vacation!

Great Stay Behind B.I.R.

This is the second time staying at this VRBO for our annual work trip to the area. Just like last year the check in process was smooth and the cleanliness of the property was stellar. The house has a wonderful porch to spend your time outside grilling and a good-sized yard for some backyard activities. I am sure we will be staying there again on our next trip to the area!

Great hosts who ensured we had everything we needed. The home included everything you could imagine so we only provided our food. A/C and ceiling fan made for comfortable sleeping in warm summer heat. Sunrise from the deck was pretty great. Lots of parking and dock space. Fish cleaning shack was convenient. Full amenities in the kitchen and the fire pit was great for smores. Kids enjoyed the fishing and we created some nice memories. Not crazy about the loud racing noise from Brainerd International Raceway, but it was 0800-2000 so we still found time to enjoy the serenity of lake life during our stay. Tons of activities and places to eat if you so desire. Every store you can imagine is only a few minute drive away. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the birds, ducks, geese, bunnies and chipmunk coming to the bird feeders. Saw a pair of bald eagles who stayed in a tree nearby which was spectacular. Beds were very comfortable and the washer dryer were top notch.

Brainerd Experience

The many positives of this VRBO listing include excellent communication with the host - Sue even checked with us a day or two into the vacation to make sure we had everything we needed. The house is well stocked with the necessary items. It is spacious and very clean. We enjoyed using the gas grill for a few meals on the deck. The lake has a sandy bottom and the water is clear. Due to the draught, the water level was very low, but we still enjoyed floating on the nice water lounge chairs and the big inflatable flamingo provided by the hosts. The low water level and sand make this perfect for a family with small children. The one negative is that our vacation was during the same time as the National Hot Rod Association's "Nationals." This four-day event (plus prep and tear-down days before and after) was very loud with the roar of engines and live music after the races ended. If you love racing, or are attending "Nationals," this is the perfect place to stay - complimentary tickets were provided. If you prefer peace and quiet, check out the NHRA race schedule and avoid the week of the "Nationals."

Wonderful Hospitality

Thank you Sue and Joe for your wonderful hospitality for our client. I did not physically stay at this location but set it up for a family who unfortunately lost their home to a fire, Sue and Joe were very understanding of the situation and provided a home away from home for the family.
