Worked great for us. Dog friendly and that was important to me. Great location, close to shops and a wedding venue for my nephew. The host was great to work with and responsive, all communications were clear. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. We would stay here again. Thank you for hosting us!

This was our second time staying at the Brainerd House. It’s in a great location just blocks from Downtown in a quiet neighborhood. It’s a nice cozy place to stay when you are in the Brainerd area! We love it!
