Quality Inn & Suites Brainerd

10/10 Excellent

"It was fine"

Cabin on Rice Lake access to Mississippi River 1 bedroom/1 bath sleeps 4

10/10 Excellent

"The entire experience was fabulous. We wanted someplace to just be away from our normal routine. It was wonderful to watch all the kids on the lake, the friendly boaters going by. Watching the Loons and a family of ducks. The cabin was very clean and easy to navigate. It was right on the lake. Couldn't get any closer unless you were in it. My husband sat on the deck the entire time and loved it. I drove to Miners Mountain and walked the trails, it was beautiful and only about 17 minutes away. A good place to eat right off the main road, before turning into the road to the cabin. I would recommend this cabin to anyone."

Pleasant cabin with AC in Brainerd - 2 bed. shower ,fridge, fire pit,

8/10 Good

"Didn’t realize it is literally right beside owner’s house although we didn’t see or hear them much. Brought our own lawn chairs and gas grill which was good. No kitchen knives, which we didn’t bring. Otherwise comfortable bed, lots of pillows and towels. Fire supplies provided and lovely yard with flowers, outdoor lights and wash line. Even a walking stick (the insect) on the cabin this morning. Close to lakes and town and an ATV trail."

NEW - The Boardwalk on North Long Lake Brainerd with Hot Tub, Pet-Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property, great family spaces and a big yard for the dog to roam a bit. We used the grill and patio several evenings. The week we were here was hot, and the indoor space was well used by our group of 5. There is a long dock to hang out on and the lake is shallow for quite aways out, perfect for dogs and littles. Would definitely rent again."

Private Beach: Lakefront Escape in Brainerd!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay with three families and would definitely recommend this home. The layout was perfect for a large group, with great visibility to the beach and yard, making it easy to keep an eye on the kids. We loved the private beach, kayaks, beach toys, game room, spacious yard, and how close it was to Baxter for groceries and anything else we needed. The home felt warm, welcoming, and communication with the host was excellent.A few improvements would make it even better. The upstairs bedrooms got quite warm with the doors closed, so better airflow or fans would help, and blackout curtains would be a great addition for families with young kids. The grill was slow and didn't heat evenly, there was quite a bit of goose poop around the beach and yard, and we would have appreciated a recycling option.Overall, we made wonderful family memories here and would happily stay again."

Tiny Home-A Frame-Sauna-Cold Plunge-Fire Pit-Seclusion

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to retreat to the woods. It's not on North Long Lake but it is near the Paul Bunyon Trail and between Brainerd and Nisswa. The space was clean and welcoming. The kitchen was well stocked and had what we needed to make meals. The host did a great job communicating and responding to any questions. Would stay here again."

Pet Friendly-Secluded-Fire Pit-300mbps internet

10/10 Excellent

"This place was a gem. We brought our dogs and walked them every day down the quiet dirt road. Perfect for dogs as the floors are stained cement and easy to sweep. There was a grill to use and a fire pit. Internet is a little spotty. However, I used my phone to connect. Also super private. We would stay again."

Sandy Shallows on North Long Lake

10/10 Excellent

"The property has everything you need to relax & have an enjoyable time. There is everything you need to enjoy the water by day and a fire pit to enjoy the evenings by.There is enough indoor & outdoor seating to accomodate your whole group eating meals together.The host Derek is very attentive to all your questions and request. One of our vehicle had problems on the way up & we reached out to him for help once we got there. He gave us a few local recommendations & followed up with us. We were in town for a wedding that had many events planned, our only regret was we did not have more tme to spend at the property. It is has everything up would need to relax and unwind. We stayed during the summer, but would imagine the proerty would be beautiful & acommodating year round."

PARADISE NORTH: LOG HOME CABIN IN BRAINERD, MN

8/10 Good

"Beautiful cabin that was perfect for my family. Accommodations were clean and modern. The hot tub and backyard were great for evenings together! Proximity to Paradise Resort made for a fun atmosphere. Cabin is not right on the beach so be prepared to seek out public beaches if you want to enjoy more swimming time. Whipple Beach in Brainerd was excellent!"
