Great Family Long Weekend

The cabin was great for our family vacation, it had something for all ages. It was clean and had plenty of space for our family of 8. The outside amenities were great and the lake is a great lake to spend the day on the boat.

This place has everything and more!

This place was everything you want for a vacation. The house was clean and equipped with quality necessities along with extra amenities; such as a pool table, pontoon, ouside firplace, etc.. The owner was kind and quick to answer any questions we had while staying there. All the beds were amazingly comfortable!

Crosslake VRBO

Beautiful guest house that is located on a very nice lake. Located about 30 minutes from Brainerd. Quiet neighborhood during our May trip. Accommodations were very spacious and our larger family group fit easily. Highly recommend staying at this VRBO.

Amazing property

This place was perfect for our group of 7 and 2 dogs. Beds were comfy and the pool table was an extra bonus. Loved that we could rent the pontoon from John at a much cheaper rate then anywhere else. John was quick to respond when we had a question. Overall great place with a great host!!

Guys weekend

This is a great property for a large group on one of MN best lakes! John is a GREAT host... we have stayed at his place for the past three years... we were impressed the first year, and it only gets better every year. Outside of being a great property, all of the little things are thought of as well...from kitchen utensils to entertainment games. I highly recommend this place for your stay and John as your host.

We had our family stay here for a wedding weekend. It was perfect. The upstairs bar/pool table area is well appointed and beautifully finished. The beds are super comfortable. John was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Having the ability to rent the pontoon is a real bonus.

Great Central Location

This property is right in the middle of the action in the Cross Lake area. A day on the pontoon is a perfect way to take it all in. The rental house is good. The fire ring and dock area are good. The pontoon is excellent. John was helpful returning some items that were left behind.

Quality property

We selected this lake house because it allowed pets. The house was well maintained and has many upgraded features. The owner was great to deal with. The only negatives are it does not have a lake view because it sits behind the larger owner's home. As a result, it does not have a patio or deck overlooking the lake.
