Classic Up-North Log Cabin Getaway
Spend your vacation up north in one of the area’s most iconic log cabins, located just two hours from the Twin Cities and only steps from the lake. This charming retreat offers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern comfort, with thoughtful amenities designed to help you relax, unplug, and make lasting memories.
The shoreline features a mix of rocky and sandy areas, and the lake is known for excellent fishing. Launch one of the kayaks or the paddle boat to explore the water, curl up with a book, or enjoy a peaceful nap in the hammock while taking in the scenery.
Relax on the expansive deck with a full outdoor dining table, rocking chairs, and a Weber grill—ideal for lakeside meals and evening gatherings. As the sun sets, gather around the firepit in Adirondack chairs for s’mores and conversation, while kids stay entertained with ping pong or basketball in the garage game room.

Golf lovers will appreciate the area’s world-class courses, including Madden’s, Grand View Lodge, and The Classic at Madden’s, all offering stunning fairways and challenging play. In the winter, the frozen lake becomes a hub for ice fishing, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing, ensuring there’s no shortage of activities no matter the season.
Brainerd’s vibrant shopping, dining, and entertainment scene is just minutes away, providing even more ways to enjoy your stay.

Details
Our direct booking cancellation policy for this property is designed to be flexible while also protecting the property owner from last-minute cancellations. Guests may cancel and receive a 100% refund when cancellation is made at least 30 days before check-in and a 50% refund when cancellation is made 15–29 days before check-in. Cancellations made within 14 days of check-in are normally non-refundable, as the rental income is committed to the property owner and it can be difficult to replace a reservation on short notice. However, we understand that unexpected situations can arise, so if you need to cancel within 14 days of your stay, please contact us as soon as possible. We can cancel the reservation and attempt to rebook the dates, and if we are successful in rebooking the cancelled dates, we will still provide a 50% refund, even if the replacement reservation is secured only a few days before your scheduled arrival. We kindly ask guests not to make reservations unless they reasonably intend to keep them, as credit card and payment-processing fees associated with direct reservations can approach 8%. At the same time, we recognize that legitimate emergencies and unexpected circumstances happen, and when they do, we are happy to work with our guests and provide any refund available under the cancellation policy above.
