About this property

Making Memories on North Long Lake

Northwoods cabin on beautiful North Long Lake with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and over 1600 finished square feet including a large kitchen, den, and family room! However, the best part is that this cabin is a level lot only steps away from a new 20x40 sandy beach in April of 2021! Hours of fun for little ones to play in the sand!

The enticing, private lakeside has beautiful shallow water. The Northwoods feel of the cabin is also wheelchair accessible with a large ramp on the street side. The large master shower has a bench and a large doorway. There is a large yard for sunny day yard games and cool evening bonfires!

This property is close to BIR, and assorted Brainerd activities include many golf courses, biking trails, shopping, restaurants, go-carts, and miniature golf! Winter ice fishing on our lake has been wonderful and we are close enough to visit nearby lakes within just minutes. During the summer we provide 2 tickets to the race event at BIR so you can go check it out if you prefer!

** The weekend of June 22-24, 2023, is the Lakes Jam country music festival!

**The weekend of August 17-20., 2023 is the NHRA Drag Racing Event at BIR and will be loud and very fun! Most other weekends at the cabin are quiet and you will barely notice any sound from there, but the Nationals will be a much different event! Many people from around the country come back every year to this event! Two tickets are provided with rental each weekend!

We hope you enjoy our lakeside home! It is perfect for water activities, young children and old alike! There is a paddleboat, kayak, and 2 paddleboards for your use while at the home. A beach for kids to play to build sand castles while you enjoy some wonderful family time. If you choose to bring your boat, there are three boat launches close by with the closest, being just 1/2 mile away!

New to the lake is a boat rental company called Your Boat Club. Here is the link to boat rentals right on our lake!

About the host

Hosted by Sue and Jim Host

Host profile image
My husband, mom, and I are new to VRBO and look forward to hosting you at our new cabin. I'm a soon-to-be-retired special education teacher and my husband has been in sales for over 30 years. Our 3 children love to fish and have found this lake to be full of walleye, northern and other panfish. A large lake with shallow beaches for little ones to enjoy playing in the water.

Why they chose this property

This cabin has all of the amenities you need and more. It is within a 10-minute drive of Costco, Target, Cub Foods, yet once you arrive, you will be away from all the traffic and city life. It also is close to BIR if you would like to take in a race, a plethora of golf courses, restaurants, biking trails, miniature golf, many other lakes, and of course, shopping. If you have been to Brainerd, you know that there are almost too many things to fit in just one week! We are about 10 minutes from the wonderful shops of Nisswa!

In addition to the main cabin, we now offer an additional two-bedroom guest house for rent along with the main cabin. It can sleep 4 more people, making a total of 11 people at the property. Inquiries through VRBO. Complete with a kitchen, bathroom and family room.

What makes this property unique

So much area for the little ones to spend hours building castles and spending hours in the sun! There are 3 large bedrooms, enough to sleep 7. There is a lot of grass space so bring your yard games and a large deck overlooking the lake. It is handicapped accessible, has a 0 elevation to the lake. We have a full-size washer/dryer to use.
