Sister trip fall of 2026. Our condo was clean, our beds were very comfortable. We stayed in a lake view condo with lots of windows, so peaceful. The location was excellent, close to everything you could want, from dining , grocery stores, and lots of fun shopping. The people who work there are helpful and very nice. Communication with Cagney employees was excellent . We go to this area yearly, and we will be back, here, for sure !We both highly recommend staying here !!!

Quiet Off Season Spot with a Beautiful View

I had to travel to Baxter for a 9 day work trip and this was a great quiet spot with a full kitchen and fireplace to relax in front of after work. My stay was comparable to the chain hotels in town in price but with much nicer features and as quiet as could be.

Early Week Getaway

My wife and I wanted a close and short getaway and chose the Brainerd area. This property and location was the perfect choice. Set on the lake with a terrific view, the accommodations were wonderful. All the necessities were provided, making life much easier and the experience enjoyable. We will definitely be back again.

Get outta town

Just looking to spend a quiet night away from the Big City. We enjoyed our stay. Note: This unit is located directly adjacent to the fire-pit so there was noise until after midnight.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciate you letting us know about your experience regarding the late-night noise around the firepit, although we wish you would have reached out to our after-hours on-call number so we could have helped out.

Ladies get away

Although the weather did not cooperate. We found plenty to do. The small towns are close enough to go visit. The condo was a great size just to chill out and chat. We enjoyed our time here. Just to get away for awhile with friends and to catch up.

I can't say enough of how nice the house is. It is spacious and inviting. The fireplace is pleasant bonus! It was a great place for a family gathering. BTW... there's a lake outside! I would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing long weekend

The place was great and the only reason that I gave it a four for cleanliness was the spider webs (and spider) in the bathroom. It is centrally located making trips to Nisswa or Baxter very easy. Being off-season, the lake was quiet but it was warm enough to sit out on the beach during the day. Hope to come back sometime and bring some friends or family with us!

Fabulous

We really enjoyed our stay at The Bay Colony! The unit was spacious and well stocked with kitchen and bath essentials. The beach was awesome! Loved the umbrellas that were out out each morning, the lounge chairs, kayaks and paddle boards. We also made use of the gas grills several times, as well as the fire pits for s’mores and to relax and watch the sunset. The staff were around anytime we had questions and were extremely friendly and helpful! This is our 2nd year staying here and we will be back!

Perfect getaway

We loved our experience at Gull Lake Beach Resorts. The building and property were both clean. All amenities listed were correct, we didn’t even need to contact management for anything and they even had a bottle of wine set out for us upon entering the unit. Our first family getaway after the pandemic and baby, loved everything about our stay.
