Location: Emily, Central, Minnesota, USA (We are 12 miles East of Cross Lake and 20 miles N of Crosby.) View Map
Accommodations: Cabin, 4 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 2 Baths (Sleeps 8-12)
Keywords: Cabin & Guest Cottage
Easy access to the lake makes this a perfect place for warm bonfires by the water. GOOD FISHING!!
Sandy Beach area is shallow for quite a distance; making it safer for small children. The Cabin's east windows give you perfect SUN RISES. Though the cabin and guest cottage are tucked into the trees, there are awesome views from both locations. Yes, LOTS of birds & wild life. Great location for SCRAP BOOKERS.
The lake is just a gentle walk down the hill. Lots of GOOD FISHING, and with The Little Pine River connecting you to Lake Mary, anglers have lots of options! The public boat landing is close by, on the west side of the lake. Expect to catch northern, walleye, bass, sunfish and crappies......and lots of them! PONTOON RENTAL - $85 daily w/gas included. FREE USE OF A CANOE AND A PADDLE BOAT. Boat lift available for your boat, with landing nearby.
There's a wonderful bait store, unique gift shops, antique stores (one features mostly incredible glassware!!), ice cream shop, restaurants, grocery and many services in town. The Bungalow Restaurant is 1/4 mile away. You are also only 10 minutes from Lake Roosevelt in Outing, and 15 minutes from The White Fish Chain & the town of Cross Lake. Crosby is 23 miles to the south and is slated as "The Antique Capital of Minnesota." For golfers: Emily Greens Golf, with the largest greens in the state, is just 5 minutes west.
Crosby ORE MINE LAKES offer TROUT & LARGE BASS FISHING - ALSO A FAVORITE FOR DIVERS! 25 MIN. FROM THE CABIN
Visit the web sites for Emily, Cross Lake, Outing and Crosby for details on the many attractions and opportunities! The Paul Bunyan Trail, for bikers, is just minutes away. Because there are many acres of State Land (good hunting) bordering Lake Emily, there aren't many homes and it tends to be a quiet retreat!
MAIN WALKOUT CABIN-HOME has 3+ bedrooms with 1 queen, 1 king, 1 full, and 2 twin beds. 2 baths, full eat-in kitchen, living room and deck. It is FULLY furnished with appliances, including a microwave and more. Rental includes an initial supply of all paper products. There are plenty of towels & washclothes (though you may wish to bring a favorite beach towel), bed linens include pillows.
A SEPARATE BUILDING: THE LILAC GUEST COTTAGE (rented separately, but only to the party that has the Main Cabin) has 1 full, and a set of bunk beds. A table, chairs and sofa, as well as a small refrigerator & a coffee maker for your convenience and comfort. The bathroom has a "Biolet Toilet" and electricity for heating water in an electric kettle. This little cottage (wall heater for cool nights) feels more like "cozy camping" with all water brought in by pail from the house or outside faucet/hose! An antique, enamel wash basin is provided for your use, or share the full bath in the walk-out lower level of the main cabin. It's just a few steps away.
All linens, bedding and towels are provided in both locations.
TESTIMONIALS: "...we all just loved the cabin and beautiful surroundings! Nice the 6 of us could each enjoy our own space - and still get together for a couple home cooked meals. Lovely decor, enjoyed the birds, wildlife and early morning peace and quiet on the deck, great view of lake, and we can't forget the fishing!Dick caught the biggest northern (30 1/4 " - At least 10 lbs.) My dad, who will be 93 on monday and uncle John (90 this year) had a great time catching fish, as well. Always something biting off the dock! Had fun shopping in Outing, Emily, Crosslake and the wonderful glassware store in Emily!! The Droege's, Prior Lake, Crytal Beach, (Texas)& Plato, MN.
"...it was a treat looking thru your many magazines and books. Each time you looked at a room you discovered something that you'd not seen before! Saw the eagles, heard the loons and enjoyed campfires. It's a charming place. We have many memories of happy times here." The Chapinski's, Dickinson, ND
"...it felt so homey that when we told Dad (87) that we were going home he said: I thought we were already home! We loved the many places to sit outside & with the fall colors, we took a lot of pictures. Enjoyed shopping, ate lots of ice cream! Our memories will last a lifetime. Thanks for sharing your beautiful cabin. The Krebsbachs, Austin, MN
"....We LOVED your clean, cozy cabin and it was just great to let Grandpa and Grandma have their own space, away from the little ones at night, as they took the Lilac Cottage for sleeping. Thanks for accomodating us with the extra folding tables for our projects! We will be back again." The Olson's, Mankato

Why the Owner Chose Emily
We purchased this property with the goal of retiring there. We enjoy it so much we decided to share the experience with those who do not have a lake place (yet)! We do everything we can so you'll feel like it is YOURS while you are there.
