About this property

The Point on Gull Lake – Unit 2: 2BR Lakeside w/ Patio, Dock & Garage

Summary:
Enjoy a lakefront 2BR getaway in this lower-level unit just steps from Gull Lake. With a private patio, full kitchen, garage parking, dock access, and direct entry to the shared laundry room, this unit offers convenience, comfort, and unbeatable proximity to the water—all just three doors down from Ernie’s on Gull Lake.

The Space:
Unit 2 is a cozy, lakefront 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit spanning 572.39 sq ft, perfect for couples, friends, or small families. One bedroom has a queen bed, the other a full-size bed. The unit features a full kitchen with a coffee maker, living room with sofa, and all essentials including sheets, comforters, and towels.

Step outside to your private patio just 30 feet from the water. Enjoy direct, lockable access to the shared laundry room from inside the unit—convenient for longer stays.

Guests have access to the shared dock (installed for 2025), with one free tie-up space for your boat. Our 3,000 lb boat lift is also available to rent (not suitable for pontoons). Visit our website after booking for rental availability and pricing.

Guest Access:
After booking, guests will receive a keypad code to access the unit. Enter from the lakeside entrance—Unit 2 is the lower-right unit, just 30 feet from the water.

During your stay, you’ll have access to the following:

One designated parking spot in the lot

One private garage stall (second stall from the left), with a keypad code provided after booking

Direct, private access to the shared laundry room from inside your unit

One free boat tie-up space on the shared dock

The dock is already installed for the 2025 season, and guests are welcome to tie up one boat at no charge. Limited boat trailer parking is available onsite. For overflow or overnight trailer parking, we recommend the nearby Government Point Boat Launch—please check posted signage for current rates and policies.

From parking to lake access, everything is set up to provide a smooth and seamless stay at The Point on Gull Lake.

The Neighborhood:
Our lakefront fourplex is located in a quiet residential pocket of the Gull Point neighborhood, right on the shores of Gull Lake and just three doors down from Ernie’s on Gull Lake—a popular spot for lakeside dining, live music, drinks, and volleyball.

This area offers the perfect balance of peaceful relaxation and lively summer energy. During the warmer months, you’ll likely hear boat traffic on the water and occasionally music drifting from Ernie’s. Many guests enjoy the festive, vacation-style atmosphere—it’s part of what makes this area so special.

The neighborhood is also close to nature trails, public beaches, and downtown Brainerd, which is just a short drive away and offers coffee shops, restaurants, boutiques, and seasonal events. Whether you're boating, exploring, or just kicking back by the water, you'll find that Gull Point offers both serenity and access to the best of lake life.

Getting Around:
Guests staying at our lakefront fourplex have several convenient ways to explore Gull Lake and the surrounding Brainerd Lakes area.

While ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft may be limited in this region, we highly recommend Ole’s Shuttle Service as a dependable and professional transportation option. Ole’s offers airport transfers and local rides to restaurants, events, and nearby towns. You can learn more or book a ride by visiting olesshuttleservice.com.

For guests looking to explore on their own, we offer multiple on-site rental options, all subject to availability:

Pontoon Rental: A weathered but reliable pontoon is available for rent daily from 8 AM to 7 PM. It's perfect for cruising the lake, fishing, or visiting lakeside establishments.

E-Bike Rentals: Our electric bikes are a great way to ride the lake roads and trails or head into town for a bite to eat.

Boat Lift Rental: We also offer a 3,000 lb boat lift, suitable for most mid-sized boats (note: not suitable for pontoons), available for guests or the public to rent.

Current pricing and availability for all rentals can be found on our website, which is provided after booking. These rentals are first-come, first-served, and add a convenient and exciting way to enjoy Gull Lake without needing to haul your own gear.

If you’re bringing your own boat, you’re welcome to tie up to the dock free of charge. Each unit is allocated one space on our shared dock, which is already installed for the 2025 season. From there, you can enjoy easy access to the lake, visit neighboring beaches, or boat over to lakeside restaurants like Ernie’s on Gull Lake, just three doors down.

For trailer parking, please note that on-site space is limited per city regulations. We recommend parking your trailer at the nearby Government Point Boat Launch, which offers affordable and secure parking. Be sure to check posted signage for current rates.

Whether you're biking, boating, shuttling, or walking, our location offers easy access to all the best that Gull Lake has to offer.

Other Things to Note:
We welcome guests with all types of plans—whether you’re here to relax, fish, golf, or gather with friends around a fire. Whatever brings you to the lake, we ask that you be respectful and considerate of other guests during your stay.

🐾 Pet Policy
If you’re bringing a pet, please include it as an additional HUMAN guest when making your reservation, as this is how the pet fee is applied. Pets must be leashed at all times for everyone’s safety and comfort, including children, and to avoid accidents near the water.

🔥 Firewood Reminder
A shared fire pit is available for guest use between the fourplex and the lake—please bring your own firewood if you plan to enjoy it.

🚤 Dock Access
The docks are already installed for the 2025 season. Each unit includes one free tie-up space for your boat. Feel free to dock overnight while you explore Gull Lake or visit lakeside venues like Ernie’s, just a short walk or boat ride away.

🧊 Seasonal Dock Removal Notice
Please note that dock installation and removal are weather-dependent and handled by a professional service. Typically, docks remain in place from late spring through early fall. As winter approaches and ice forms, docks are removed to preserve equipment and ensure guest safety. The exact timing may vary slightly each year.

Let’s work together to make your time at The Point on Gull Lake comfortable, safe, and enjoyable—for you and your fellow guests.

Interaction with Guests:
As your host, I live nearby and am readily available should you need anything during your stay. I aim to strike the perfect balance between being accessible and giving you the space and privacy to enjoy your time at the lake.

You may occasionally see me parking my boat at the dock while heading to Ernie’s on Gull Lake, just a short walk or boat ride away. From time to time, I may say a quick hello or be around with my family, who may also be staying on the property. My goal is to be helpful without ever being intrusive.

If you have questions, need recommendations, or run into any issues during your visit, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your comfort, satisfaction, and privacy are always my top priorities—and I want to ensure your experience at The Point on Gull Lake is smooth, relaxing, and memorable.

Enjoyed it!

The place is great, right on the lake and accessible to so many area restaurants and activities. You can walk right next-door to Ernie's on Gull. The unit is spacious, clean and bright, and the hosts are communicative and prompt.

Stay October 2024

Located right in the lake. Check in was easy. Bonus to have a garage to use. Plenty of room to sit outside and enjoy the weather. Pretty close to the Paul Bunyan bike trail, Brainerd, and Nisswa. Restaurant close by, although we never ate there.

Pleasantly surprised

We stayed late August and were pleasantly surprised. Kitchen was clean and had full sized appliances. Management was very accessible and responsive. It was very hot and humid and A/C worked well. Lake are right outside clean and beach was area was nice. Firepit had wood supplied. We would stay again.

A repreive

Everything was great - it was exactly what I needed. I would not label it as a "quite" get away; however the location was excellent, especially for those wanting a bit of excitement, ie: boating, Ernies, etc. When I arrived, the propane tank was empty, but that was taken care of right away. There were no dish towels or rags, this would be good to know so people know to bring their own. The microwave did not work - not a big deal for me, but might be for some. The tenant above me was smoking weed, playing guitar and singing on his deck - also not a huge deal, but somewhat distracting. Overall, it was exactly what I needed, the condo was very clean and well equipped, excellent views, location, etc. I will absolutley plan on returning in the future. Thank you!!

Beautiful view!

The real plus here is the view and access to the lake. You have great access to restaurants and and attractions around the Lakes area. The lodging isn’t a premium property and is showing its age. There were broken shades on the patio doors that limited privacy. The deck was dirty on arrival and we had to do a deep-clean of the patio table and chairs that was full of dust and pollen. The price was fair for the property. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
