About this property

Beautiful New Home On Private Lake Across From Gull Lake And Other Local Spots!

This fabulous lodge features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and comfortably sleeps 8 people. This Northern Gull Retreat is extremely secluded on it's own private, 25 acre lake with extensive outdoor space, all while being within walking distance to Gull Lake, Bar Harbor Supper club, Cowboys, and Zorbaz with Grandview Lodge 1.5 miles away. The perfect year round family location in the Gull Lakes area.

As you enter the 200 yard white pine adorned driveway, you will know you have left the hustle and bustle of the city and entered your own private northern wonderland complete with your own private 22 acre lake. Lone Lake Lodge beautifully blends the comfort of an “Up North Cabin” experience with the modern conveniences of a gas fireplace, 2 big screen TV’s with Roku and Dish Network, indoor/outdoor home audio system, washer/dryer, wireless high-speed internet, outdoor gas grill and much more. Bring your clothes and we will provide the rest.

The custom design interior features 3 bathrooms, 4 bedrooms 3 king (with one that becomes twin beds) beds and a smaller bedroom with 2 beds, and trundle perfect for kids. A fully-stocked large kitchen with attached great room including a gas fireplace keeps everything and everyone in one spot. The lodge also has a full laundry room, screened-in porch with a table and 8 chairs, and a large downstairs family room/game room with a foosball table. The kids can be downstairs while the adults have their private space. The outdoor area includes a large patio with a fire pit, 8 Adirondack chairs, large gas grill, and a private driveway with plenty of parking.

Lone Lake Lodge is nestled in a large 150 acre wooded area and includes its own small, private swimming lake (22acres) equipped with a dock, ladder, bench, paddle board, small non motorized fishing boat, and Kayak. There is no beach on Lone Lake keeping with the natural serenity of the surroundings. The property backs up to Fritz Loven park with miles of hiking trails and cross country skiing right in the backyard. The lake is perfect for swimming, and paddle boarding in the summer, or skating, and cross country skiing in the winter. Some of the best snowmobiling trails in the country are located just a few miles away with access right outside the lodge driveway. There is plenty of room for sled trailers in the parking area of the lodge.

Fall at the lodge offers all the beauty of the colorful Minnesota landscape right in the backyard with the birch, and pine trees showcasing their changing colors overlooking the majestic acreage surrounding the water.
Lone Lake Lodge is the perfect year round vacation spot.

Lone Lake does not have public water access, and is non motorized making it your private, quite, water retreat! All you will hear are the call of the loons, swans and geese in the morning and the visits from the many wildlife that do venture into the back yard on occasion. At night, the northern lights have been known to make an appearance, and a celestial concert in the sky can be seen most nights featuring all the stars, planets and satellites seen with the naked eye.

The lodge is located a 1/4 mile from the Gull Lake boat launch near Zorbaz. For those who may want to venture out on Gull Lake, 2 boat rental companies (Gull Lake Marina, Lake fun Rentals) are available across the street from the launch. There are also a few public beaches and many restaurants along the shores of Gull Lake. A few miles down the road is “Ski Gull” open year round featuring skiing, snowboarding and tubing in the winter and zip lining and mountain biking in the summer. Amazing golf courses and mini golf for all abilities are also just minutes away. The quaint town of Nisswa is 2 miles away and will fulfill desires the any shopping enthusiasts. A fully stocked grocery and liquor store is a quick drive down the road making this property the perfect year round family vacation get away!!

What makes this property unique

Lone lake lodge captures the peace that many people are looking for in a vacation rental. It has every amenity possible in a quiet,majestic surrounding. The only noise you will hear is a loon call from the private lake or other wildlife sounds.
You may think you are all alone in the wilderness, but right down the road are fabulous restaurants, boating, golfing and shopping. It is a beautiful winter and summer retreat with lots of activities in the area year round.
