Very nice lakeside home. It was clean & provided everything we could want for our vacation at the lake. The lake was clear & had nice sandy beach area for children to play & enjoy. Managers were easy to communicate with & responded quickly to questions & concerns! We are looking forward to returning in 2025!!

Aug 2024 Family Vacation

This was an absolutely beautiful and extremely clean lake home. Several family rooms and two floors to spread out in. Awesome large kitchen with plenty of nice dishes, pots and pans, and seating. King bed in master bedroom not a queen as stated in website, and this was nice! Nice front loader washer and dryer. Please note the dock shown in the website picture is for the home next door.

Such a great place!!

Even more beautiful and spacious than the pictures. Equipped with everything we needed. Big and well maintained grounds. There were so many things to use for lake fun for ages toddlers to adults. There were so many welcoming spaces where you could be alone or with others. Kitchen is extremely well stocked with dishes, flatware, utensils, pots, pans, appliances, etc. we saw many beautiful birds, ducks and even a doe with her 2 fawns in the back yard. We hope to come back another summer!

Large beautiful, clean and spacious property. The hosts were excellent. They were quick to answer any questions. The large kitchen was well equipped with high end appliances. We loved playing in the lake with its sandy shallow bottom. It was great for young children. We enjoyed paddle boarding and kayaking. The lake is a great fishing lake.

North Pine Cottage was amazing!! The pictures do not even capture all the beauty of the property. Stunning inside and out. Our family had such a wonderful vacation and didn’t want to leave. Arby and Eric were wonderful to work with. We rented both the cottage and the guesthouse, and would highly recommend it. Both cottages are well supplied and very well maintained. The yard is beautiful and we used the fire pit most evenings after a day on the water. I highly recommend North Pine Cottage.

Beautiful home on North Long Lake!

The home is designed with a wonderful open kitchen/living/dining area. The huge island in the kitchen was great for gathering, eating, and one night we had a really fun Bingo game there. We had a really fun week.

Err on the side of caution.

I pulled the sheets back to got to bed our first night there and I immediately noticed the sheets and mattress pad had blood stains!!! I stripped the bed. This is not BS ask the owner she came the next day and changed the bedclothes out. Otherwise the cleanliness of the household was great. The owner also demanded that they keep our security deposit for various things. We had four kids under 10 so yes there were some food related mishaps, go figure. We were also accused of other stains and such that were there when we arrived. My recommendation with this owner is to do a full and complete inspection of the property and amenities before you truly settle in. Report what you find immediately. Err on the side of caution. While the owner never said anything about the pontoon if you rent it ask for specific instructions as to how to clean it after use. I didn't expect to be "help", but apparently I was. This also goes for the kayaks/paddle boards/canoe. Even though I hosed each down, top and bottom, I was dinged for them being a mess. Last thing...super shallow water out to several hundred feet. If you have adults who want to fish this is not the lake for that.

Beautiful Cabin on North Long Lake

We had a fantastic time. The cabin is beautiful and comfortable at the same time. We had a wide range of ages staying at the cabin and the 4 bedrooms/ bunk rooms accommodated everyone. There are plenty of games and recreational items to satisfy all ages. The hosts were great. They were very flexible with their pontoon rental-which we used for several days. We highly recommend this cabin. It is one of those rare properties where you have plenty of space without other cabins right on top of you. We’ll definitely rent again the next time we are in northern Minnesota. Thanks for the use of such a great place!

We have started a summer Brainerd Vacation with our adult children, spouses and grandchildren 4 years ago. This is our first time here. The weather didn't cooperate as planned but we made the best of it. The house setup and outdoor area was outstanding. Everything was so clean, spacious and organized. We absolutely loved it & can't wait to return.

Fun July Vacation on North Long Lake

This is our third stay at the Popp’s lovely lake house on North Long Lake. The house is beautiful, nearly new and very well maintained. It is equipped with everything necessary for a fun and comfortable stay on the lake. The house easily accommodated our family of 6 adults and 5 children. Communication was very good and the hosts are very accommodating. The house is in a beautiful setting right on the lake. The lake has a mix of shallow sandbars and deep areas, suitable for boating. All in all, a lovely vacation stay.
