Everyone in our family really enjoyed staying here. We wanted a quiet place where we could fish and swim. This was the perfect location. The extra space in the sun room and the extra building to play cards was great! This place was very clean with a well stocked kitchen. We would definitely stay here again.

This was our third summer staying at Eric and Laura's cabin and it's always a highlight of the summer for our family. It somehow keeps getting even better year after year! The pontoon rental option was a huge highlight and it gave us the chance to venture over to the cute sandy beach across the lake. As always, the property is super clean, cute, and well-stocked with everything needed to relax at the lake. You can tell they work hard to keep it that way. We'll be back again next summer!

Another great stay!

This was our second summer visiting this property and our kids are already asking to come back again next summer! Eric and Laura are great hosts and take such good care of their place - it's always really clean, easy to access, and offers such great amenities in a fantastic location. It has that great woodsy/lake feel, but still offers plenty of shops, restaurants, and activities nearby. We love it!

Enjoyed our 2nd visit to this beautiful spot. Great location and the cabin is fully stocked, clean and the grounds are well maintained. The hosts continue to make improvements. Enjoyed bonfires and card games in the game room which is a plus. This location is quiet and relaxing and a bike trail that is so close by. Great hosts! We hope to visit again.

A perfect location and cabin for a family getaway

A perfect landing pad for an active family with easy access to the Paul Bunyan Trail, dock fishing, swimming, paddling and more. Especially loved having the outbuilding to keep bikes and other toys secure and out of the way. Also key for anyone traveling with kids: a big shower, washer/dryer and well-appointed kitchen. Would absolutely recommend and hope to be back again soon!

Great Week At The Lake

We had a great time at the Larson's cabin. Everything was clean, modern and exactly as promised. The whole family had a nice, relaxing time enjoying the serene property, beautiful lake and easy access to both Nisswa and Pequot -- charming small towns with all the amenities you could ask for. Thanks so much for the great stay!

Great getaway for the Family

The Cabin was perfect for a quick getaway with the family. It was in a perfect location for easy access to hiking and town excursions. The Cabin itself was in great conditon and had newly renovated feel. The owners even left a welcome gift which was a nice touch. The firepit was in the perfect spot for family fun and the view was amazing. I think we may have come at the perfect time as the fall colors were beautiful. We were so happy we chose here to stay.

Great updated property on a quiet peninsula.

The pictures are accurate but don’t do justice to how well the interior has been refreshed and how nice the view is from the fire pit and dock. Well spaced out from your neighbors so you have great peace and a sense of private retreat. Highly recommend.

This was our second stay here and I have to say my favorite part is walking in to such modern, clean and well-kept space. The lake is beautiful and the kids had a great time fishing and swimming. Comfortable beds and plenty of space. The kitchen is great too! The cabin is well situated between popular restaurants, ice cream shops and water parks. Beautiful views of nature. We will stay there a third time if we are lucky.

Best Cabin!

Our family of 5 enjoyed this cabin. Perfect location with easy access to the Paul Bunyan trail. The lake was so clear and nice to cruise around on with our boat. Eric is a great host and has thought of everything. The house is equipped with all you need to have a relaxing cabin getaway. Very clean and welcoming. The storage area was nice to put our bikes in and our kids loved the game room/bar attached to the storage area.

Pedal and Paddle

We loved how close we were to the PB bike trail and biked everyday with the kids. The girls loved how easy it was to bike to the playground (and ice cream). The kayaks were a great way to explore the lake. The owners pointed us to MN Traders which was a great stop for breakfast and coffee.

About the host

Hosted by Eric Larson

Host profile image

I have been fortunate to call the Nisswa area home for my entire life (with the exception of 3 years in the military). East Twin Lake has been one of my favorite lakes since I was a child. When the opportunity came up for me to purchase a small piece of the tranquility and great fishing I remember as a kid, I couldn't let it get away. My wife and I completely renovated the cabin, as that is my profession, but kept the small quaint cabin appeal.

Why they chose this property

The lake! East Twin is a great lake for fishing, boating, swimming and relaxing. The location of the cabin and the proximity to the Paul Bunyan Trail, cannot be beat!

What makes this property unique

This cabin sits on a peninsula. The west side of the property is on the bay side (also where the public access boat ramp is) and the east side overlooks the main part of East Twin. The main side has hard sandy bottom for swimming and dock ready for your boat.
