About this property

Quiet lakeside retreat on Rabbit Lake

Welcome to Sisu Haus, your getaway on the beautiful West Bowl of Rabbit Lake! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers three finished levels of lake-loving comfort. The main floor features two cozy bedrooms, full bath, and a warm kitchen/dining area with beautiful lake views and deck access for chilling and grilling. Tongue and groove walls give that classic up-north cabin vibe. Upstairs is a spacious loft-style sleeping area—including 3 additional beds for guests. The walk-out lower level includes a queen sofa sleeper, a ping pong table, a wet bar, and 3/4 bath, ideal for entertaining and having fun. Head outside the walkout and enjoy a large lockable storage shed for your toys, and 120 ft of lakeshore with beautiful views of nature and a preserved wetland. Take a short stroll down the gently sloping lot to a new 100+ ft dock to swim, sun, or enjoy the beauty of the lake. Finish the night up around the concrete fire pit on adirondack chairs and the sounds of birds and water keeping you company. Plus, enjoy close access to the Cuyuna Connector bike trail for even more outdoor adventures.

This is what lake life is all about: Relax. Play. Repeat. Lake life starts here!

The house was clean and as described. Everything outside was just as nice as the inside of the house, the basketball ball hoop was awesome, the fire pit was nice and the dock was in very good condition. Really enjoyed our stay here!

Our stay was amazing! Everything was taken care of for us before we got there. The property was beautiful and the cabin had everything we needed. The fire pit was great with kindling already in there. And the driveway is big enough to park all of your cars. Thank you for the awesome weekend!

Fantastic! Lovely property on quiet and serene Rabbit Lake. Cottontail road lead us to some wonderful family time for fishing and kayaking. So many amenities in this bright and cheerful home. Modern! Comfortable, clean, spacious, with a feeling of "sisu" and lots of TLC added in. The pier extends far out for swimming or just relaxing. They even have life jackets for the little ones if needed. Crosby area is a gem to discover. Surrounding lakes, restaurants, deli/bakeries. We caught a Friday night lights football game last October! The host was kind and attentive with all communication. Great stay :)

About the host

Hosted by Sisu Haus, LLC

Host profile image
We spend a lot of time hitting the mountain bike trails and being outdoors in the broader Cuyuna area and wanted to open our house to others to enjoy all that it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We love Cuyuna as a premiere mountain biking town in the Midwest with trails for all. We also appreciate the mining history of Crosby and how that’s celebrated and reflected in the town and culture. We are a family with two daughters on their school mountain bike team.

What makes this property unique

It’s a newer build lake house with some modern amenities and some of that knotty pine cabin flavor throughout. We have a preserved wetland with abundant nature, a path to to the lake for recreation, and yard space to enjoy games and a campfire. And we’re super close to the bike trails!
