We chose this wonderful sight for the multiple levels of the home, large screened porch and beach area perfect for little ones. We knew we'd picked the perfect place once we arrived. It was more homey and spacious than even the pictures showed. It does not have a cabin feel but was more like the kind of place you'd choose if you could own lake property. A two to three week stay would have been perfect but then it would have been harder to leave!
There were 10 of us including 2 newborns and 2 toddlers. The beach, grounds, and home were a perfect family fit with comfy beds, couches, and chairs. The kitchen was well stock with everything you would need and the washer and dryer were a huge plus. City water was a positive for the little ones. The owners thoughtfully placed many extras in the home like games, books, night lights, fans, radios, clothes soap, etc..
Outdoor games were played in the expansive yard and the beach and sand area proved to be perfect for little ones. Having the canoe and paddleboat available were extra special for our stay and enjoyed by all.
The welcoming living room was relaxing and comfortable for the family, but our favorite space in the house was the amazing porch. It was a bonus space for enjoying just about anything - meals, crafts, games, rocking babies, but the evenings, while little ones slept inside, were magical.
An important fact for viewers is that Perch Lake has amazing water clarity and is known for being one of the cleanest lakes in the area. Fishing from the dock was wonderful with nice size Sunnies, and small and large mouth Bass. If you enjoy fishing there are also many nice deep holes in the lake to catch the big ones!
John and Judy were wonderful to work with and very accommodating. We highly suggest this property as a perfect, quiet location with close proximity to many of the fine dining and other special attractions in the Brainerd/Baxter area.
This property is a fabulous Hidden Gem!! Make the call...
