About the host

Hosted by Jordan Schuetzle

Host profile image
We love this home and want others to share in the fun of bringing your family and friends together when we can't use it. My wife and I enjoy hosting and want to help you have the best vacation.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Brainerd and Nisswa having visited here many times growing up. There is so much to do you'll never be able to do it all in one trip. When the opportunity came to purchase a home that allowed us to spend longer periods of time up here we jumped!

What makes this property unique

This house is incredibly peaceful and has amazing views. The lake is big enough for recreation, is stocked with plenty of fish, and will only ever have 5 homes on it, the rest being state forest. It is a peaceful retreat only minutes from all of the action and excitement of the Brainerd lakes area.
