About this property

Nestled in the Whistling Pines Charming 2-bedroom home sleeps 6 in Grand Rapids!

Welcome to the Whistling Pines!

This charming home with 1840 square feet of space, has 3 bathrooms, and 2 bedrooms with 5 total beds and sleeps 6 comfortably.
We invite you to come and experience this rustic retreat nestled in a woodsy setting on the Mississippi River. The mighty Mississippi will mesmerize you with its sparkling water and abundant wildlife. We know you will thoroughly enjoy your time listening to the wind whistling through the many majestic Norway & White pines towering on and around the property. Hear the loons calling while you relax on the wrap around deck and watch the eagles dive for fish. Located a stone’s throw from the water’s edge, you will see all sorts of other wildlife during your stay.

** NO PETS ALLOWED**

Hop on the paddle boat or kayaks and navigate to the Forest History Center dock which is about a 15 minute paddle up river to the West. Once you land at the Forest History Center dock, you can hike the many beautiful trails or sign up to take a tour.

For those of you that are looking for a more challenging voyage, you can take a 2 mile paddle to the Pokegama Dam, where there is great fishing, a beautiful campground, park & bathrooms.

Before you go on the water, please grab lifejackets that are located in the storage box on the deck.

There are fish of all species in the river, with excellent Crappie fishing across the river in Sylvan Bay.

Bring your boat and tie it off at the dock and explore all that the river has to offer. There is a landing 1 mile West on County Road 63.

The location is ideal on the edge of town with a country feel; yet you can order food & have it delivered right to the front door!

Hi, I'm Christa~!
I have lived in Grand Rapids for over 50 years. As a local, I would love to share with you my experiences, as well as recommendations to favorite spots or hidden gems in the area. Please feel free to reach out if you have questions and I will do my best to point you in the right direction. With my 12 year's experience as a Realtor, and 20+ years as a property manager, I have always found the housing industry to be rewarding, so improving the accommodation experience is something that I take great pride in.

Grand Rapids is very family friendly and gives you the quintessential "Up North" feel. The lakes, the forests, the arts & entertainment, the shopping, are all the reasons why I cherish this area and have stayed. I invite you to escape and discover the rustic charm that makes this area the perfect getaway!

On my free time, you will find me taking care of and improving our properties, camping, fishing, hiking, biking and enjoying everything outdoors~!

Why they chose this property

Please contact me if there is a way I can help to make your stay at the Whistling Pines great! The Whistling Pines offers that Up North appeal with the tall, towering pines and country feel, while enjoying the convenience of being right on the edge of the City of Grand Rapids.
