Plenty of space for our entire family. Grandkids enjoyed the game room. Being dog friendly was a huge bonus for us, they loved the water and room to run! Successful fishing from the dock, pontoon and kayaks fresh fish cooked every day. Perfect family vacation!

We stayed for 5 nights and had the best time! Easily accommodated our extended family of 13, with plenty of common space. Great sandy shallow beach access for kids. If I had to find anything 'wrong', I'd say the lack of access to a vacuum was hard, due to the constant sand on the floor from the beach; a broom was provided. We would go back just based on the beach, space, and privacy of the small lake, but overall, our stay was great and the management company contact was very helpful/responsive.

We stayed one night for an event we had up in Brainerd. As soon as we made it to the house, I was instantly disappointed that we were only staying one night. My sisters enjoyed the kayaks for a short time, the adults spent time in the kitchen eating, visiting and watching sports in the living room. The rooms were spacious, the primary bedroom was impressive. And the view of the lake was impeccable. We loved the landscaping and wished we could utilize the grill. My husband asked me the next day if we could book the whole weekend next year. We will be back!

The pictures were exactly as described. The house is beautifully decorated. The previous reviews had already mentioned that there was somebody in a camper living on the property, but we only saw them a few times and it was not bothersome at all. Previous people had made the beach sound like an excessive amount of goose poop, which was not our experience. Sure, there were some, but it is in nature… :) Providing shampoo and conditioner was wonderful as well as having access to laundry. We appreciated the two living areas as well as the size of the bedrooms upstairs (and the size of the two walk in closets!). Access to outdoors was easy: back, front, and two access points through game room (which was a hit). Only feedback was just deep dusting and the red chairs were broken-ish when arrival but the quality of the chairs by the grill were excellent and easily portable. Fantastic home and we’d love to come back!
