Lakefront Cabin on Mitchell Lake

Perched on the highest point of Mitchell Lake in the Brainerd Lakes Area, this classic cabin offers unmatched views and peaceful seclusion. Enjoy direct lake access with a private dock and complimentary use of a canoe, plus a convenient powered hill lift to transport you to and from the water from May through October.

Whether you're here for boating, year-round fishing, or nearby outdoor adventures, the location is ideal. Explore world-class mountain biking trails in Crosby, or visit charming lake towns like Crosslake. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate quick access to nearby courses including Golden Eagle, Crosswoods, and Emily Greens.

Enjoy a beautiful bluff view of Mitchell Lake from the main cabin and the lower bedrooms. Have a cup of coffee or fire up the grill on the deck. The view is amazing and the spot feels private even though you're right on the lake.

Whether you're seeking a basecamp for adventure or a relaxing lakeside retreat, this cabin delivers the best of both worlds.

Great little cabin, clean and tidy

Had a great time staying here! Cabin was organized, clean, and the lift to the dock was a fun little adventure. Kayaking around the lake was peaceful, and even had a few vocal loons we paddled by each day. Master bed was very comfortable and I’m impressed with how quickly and well the AC worked. Would def stay here again!

Calming

We had a wonderful time. Sitting in the deck relaxing watching the calming if the water. Waking up hearing loons, Hummingbirds were buzzing around, watched an Eagle fly around and hunt, and even saw a pileated woodpecker. Slept fantastic. Rejuvenated and relaxed, exactly what we needed.

Week Away

Our family wanted a week away to relax. We had a nice week in the cabin. It was cold outside so we spent a lot of time inside playing games, watching movies, and cooking meals. It was the perfect getaway and everything we were looking for. Jill and Dick were great about checking in and making sure we had everything we needed.

Quite Cabin in the Woods

We had an excellent stay at the cabin. Very pet friendly. We appreciated the extra dog sheets as I usually have to bring our own. We stayed in the winter and it was so peaceful and quiet. We loved having the fireplace with the beautiful view of the lake. Saw lots of deer and birds. We would definitely recommend it and we look forward to checking it out in the summer as well! Jill was a great host and answered all our questions.

Winter getaway

We had an amazing time. Close to Emily and Crosslake. Highly recommend the pickled loon. Their ahi tuna crisps are amazing. The property is well kept. Access to lake is steep, but manageable. The only thing I would change is the fireplace. There is a brick incline and hard to see. I stubbed my toe serval times. Host is quick to respond and very helpful!

Beautiful view - peaceful area

We enjoyed our stay here. Bedrooms and bathrooms are all new/remodeled. As others mentioned, the tram was a nice feature to get to the lake. My guess is 125-150 ft down thus it saves your legs. I will mention that 1 queen is soft and the other queen and twin beds are very firm if that affects you. We always bring padding along when we don't know the situation so we were OK. Jill was very accommodating in letting us adjust our schedule at the last minute. Very responsive.

Delightful Cabin on a Beautiful Lake

My husband and I wanted a short getaway on a lake for a few days. Jill & Richard's cabin on Mitchell Lake was the perfect rental. Everything was exactly as advertised/expected, and the communication with us throughout the process was timely and comprehensive. The cabin had everything we needed/wanted, including some really fun puzzles. The lake was a delightful surprise - not only was it the perfect size, we had so many cool encounters with wildlife. We caught at least six species of fish using just worms off the dock. We used the canoe to explore the lake and tributaries - saw two loon families, turtles, and a very active eagle family, who liked to nest in the trees above our dock. We could hardly bear to leave when it was time... we will be back for sure!

Good for fishing but not suitable for family with young kids

We stayed in this peoperty for a week. The location is okay, and the property is good for fishing but not suitable for young kids. It did not have a bathtub, and the shower is too tight and not installed properly. Our 4 year old could not shower properly, and we ended up using a bucket to wash her. It's not very convenient. I was told we could swim, but the water had lots of weed and no shoreline. It had a pretty steep drop and can only get to the water using the lift, no stairs. We had issues with the laundry, and it started leaking, and the basement floor in the laundry room was flooded. The cabin is okay but not worth the money we paid.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Maloney

Host profile image
We love this property due to its beautiful lake views with the convenience of a hill lift to get to the water. We love spending time on the lake - fishing, kayaking, or tooling around in the boat. We also enjoy snowshoeing, ice fishing and snowmobiling in the winter.

Why they chose this property

Mitchell Lake has a great social atmosphere where people pull up in boats, kayaks, and sailboats to the sandbar in the Northwest corner to play games and socialize. Mitchell has great fishing, and creeks perfect for a day of kayaking or canoeing. It is also close to great golfing, hiking, hunting, and hiking, ATV and snowmobiling trails.

What makes this property unique

This property is private and provides beautiful views and access to the lake, while providing privacy. Take a stroll with your pet or by yourself on the nearby dirt road.
