Welcome to the Lazy Bear Den, a cozy year-round escape located right on the beautiful Lake Emily, in Emily, MN. Lake Emily is a much more private feeling lake that is close to all the action in the CrossLake area. This slow pace makes it perfect for water activities, fishing, snowmobiling, and ATV riding! The other option, which is my favorite, is sitting back and soaking in nature around you. Between the massive stary sky, the tall, beautiful pines, or all the sounds of nature, you can really feel the atmosphere the second you arrive.

Lazy Bear Den is a 3 bed 2 full bath, 2000 sq/ft home with plenty of space for everyone. This home is located on the north side of Lake Emily and close to the channel that ties to Lake Mary.
