beautiful views, Nice yards
It worked out for us as we were able to have a small family reunion and we were able to meet our 2 great, great granddaughters ages 2 and 2 months. the ponds are not usable as far as wading for our 2 mimi schnauzers but they loved smelliing all the wild animal smells from deer and squirrels and chipmunks! plenty of room and patio was nice. Since we are older, the bathroom showers could have been a little bigger and safer but we managed. the step into the house via the kitchen is dangerous. even the younger relatives almost fell getting in so should consider fixing that and having more light outside at night. esp since we had to take pups out to do their jobs! Great kitchenware etc but the oven could have been cleaned as we tried to use and it smoked up so had to open windows. The toaster oven could be updated. But all in all it served our purpose and was close to stores etc. We were happy to be able to enjoy the outdoors. Thank You

Lovely Haven Between Two Lakes
Our group of eight found a comfortable and peaceful haven here. A couple of members rose early and fished for a bit before others were even awake. Others enjoyed hanging out or taking walks. There were plenty of games, both indoor and outdoor. The host provided welcome snacks and a bottle of wine. When we needed anything, our host was quick to respond. We highly recommend this lovely home!

Fun with Family
Excellent property for an up north get-away with my kids and their families. House was perfectly equipped for my young grandchildren and roomy enough for all of us. The house and beautiful yard was kept up well and located in a very private area within a short drive to town, activities, parks, and beaches. Loved it!

Quiet lakefront property to share with family
We took our son, his wife and 4 teens seeking a house on a lake. The bedrooms were more than adequate for these teens to have privacy to spread out. The lake was small and quiet, a perfect setting to relax. It’s located in Baxter, and just a few miles from huge Gull Lake with fishing and boating fun.

Excellent home and location
The property was amazing for having peace and quiet overlooking the lake. Close proximity to Brainerd/Baxter made it extremely easy going back and forth throughout our time there. The owner was incredibly responsive and pleasant. Will definitely attempt to stay again in the future if in the area!

Family-Friendly Stay!
This home fit our large group of 14 very well. The bedrooms were all large and comfortable. We spent a lot of time in the spacious living room with the lake view and the back patio, and we took the short drive into Baxter several times! The only complaint is that there were not nearly enough chairs for our group, making meal times more complicated. But other that that we had a very pleasant experience!
