Great Family Long Weekend
The cabin was great for our family vacation, it had something for all ages. It was clean and had plenty of space for our family of 8. The outside amenities were great and the lake is a great lake to spend the day on the boat.

This place was everything you want for a vacation. The house was clean and equipped with quality necessities along with extra amenities; such as a pool table, pontoon, ouside firplace, etc.. The owner was kind and quick to answer any questions we had while staying there. All the beds were amazingly comfortable!

Crosslake VRBO
Beautiful guest house that is located on a very nice lake. Located about 30 minutes from Brainerd. Quiet neighborhood during our May trip. Accommodations were very spacious and our larger family group fit easily. Highly recommend staying at this VRBO.

Fantastic place for family time
Our family celebrated our Mom's 80th Birthday at John's place. The place was clean and there was plenty to do for all ages. John was quick to respond to any questions we had. Renting his boat was a great as we really enjoyed our time on the boat. We would definitely go back again!

Excellent Experience for a Group of 13
We had 13 guys get together for a golf trip and had an awesome time staying here. Place was clean, was close to a gas station and bar/restaurant and the pontoon was super nice. Definitely recommend.

The Best Bachelorette Weekend Ever!!
We came out to John’s property for my best friend’s bachelorette party and it was amazing!! The pictures online honestly do not do the place justice as it was a lot bigger and more spacious than we expected! John was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had, he gave us great recommendations, and he was very accommodating! The check in and check out process was super easy and we didn’t have any problems during our stay. We rented his pontoon out for a day and it fit all 13 of us perfectly. Our group is still raving about how great the place was and what a blast we all had. I definitely recommend staying here and would 100% come back!

Amazing property
This place was perfect for our group of 7 and 2 dogs. Beds were comfy and the pool table was an extra bonus. Loved that we could rent the pontoon from John at a much cheaper rate then anywhere else. John was quick to respond when we had a question. Overall great place with a great host!!

Spectacular!
We had our family stay here for a wedding weekend. It was perfect. The upstairs bar/pool table area is well appointed and beautifully finished. The beds are super comfortable. John was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Having the ability to rent the pontoon is a real bonus.

Multi Family vacation
The place was perfect for our group of 4 families with three small children. Plenty of room to hang out in the house, watch movies, play pool and have family dinners. We spent the last night around the gorgeous patio/fire pit. John was very gracious with his time and allowing us to use the pontoon boat. 10/10 would definitely stay again.

Great Central Location
This property is right in the middle of the action in the Cross Lake area. A day on the pontoon is a perfect way to take it all in. The rental house is good. The fire ring and dock area are good. The pontoon is excellent. John was helpful returning some items that were left behind.

Fabulous stay!
We had a wonderful time at this property. It was spacious, clean and situated on a dead end road so very quiet. We absolutely loved the property and being able to use the pontoon to explore the many lakes. We also enjoyed making s’mores by the fire and relaxing on the screened in porch. It was immaculate upon checkin and communication with owner couldn’t have been better. Very quick to respond to questions. Our son caught a beautiful bass as well so he was pretty happy. Can’t wait to return.

Perfect family getaway. Had a great time.
property is beautiful. A little disappointed in the listing information. Listed as 3 bedroom when actually it’s only a 2 bedroom. Also was without a working oven the whole week.
