Over 100' of sand beach with level ground, a park like setting with sprinkler system, private dock with a nice platform seating area and dock space for your boat with bass and panfish from the dock (lake has fishing for walleye, northern, small and largemouth bass, crappie and sunfish). The Paul Bunyan trail runs right next to the property to bike, walk, run, snowmobile, roller blade and more. Many top golf courses just minutes away. For miniature golf Pirates Cove and new Nisswa course is just several minutes from the property. Water slide park is 2 miles away. Enjoy the City of Nisswa for shopping, the famous Wednesday turtle races, The Chocolate OX - candy/ice cream shop, Rafferty's Pizza, Ganley's for breakfast or a great malt. 2 coffee shops the Adirondack and the Stonehouse (try the scones), the Big Axe Brewery and much more just 5 or so minutes away.

Many great restaurants nearby, Cowboys, Nisswa Ale House, Bar Harbor, Zorbaz, Raffterys Pizza, Tasty Pizza , Sherwood Forest and many more. There is a Dominoes Pizza that delivers too. Enjoy fishing off the dock, Loons, Eagles, reading, fire pit , sunsets, early morning coffee, the flowers, occasional deer, grouse, fox, squirrels, turtles and chipmunks, 2 deck areas and both Weber charcoal and gas grills. Lake side bedroom has a bunk bed and a comfy double bed. The other bedroom has a queen mattress. In the lakeside living room are 2 large bean bags, new sofa, new recliner and 2 sitting chairs and great views of the lake. There is a 3/4 bath on the main level.

Beautiful peaceful retreat
If you are looking for a beautiful peaceful retreat with a gorgeous view, then this is your place. The host was extremely attentive and flexible. The house is very clean and has lots of space for relaxing. We enjoyed seeing all the wildlife, including deer, loons, hummingbirds, and in the very early morning a meandering Black Bear in the distance. We walked and biked on the Paul Bunyon Trail right at the foot of the driveway. We can’t wait to come back!

Great place in an ideal location
This cabin is well stocked with everything you need for your stay. It is clean, comfortable, and in a great location - right on Lake Hubert with a nice yard and beach, right off the Paul Bunyan trail for walking and biking, and a short bike ride or drive from Nisswa.

This property checked all the boxes for us. Close lake to the Twin cities metro with a well kept cabin, nice amenities, close to the Paul Bunyan trail and no shortage of things to do. Todd was responsive prior to and during our trip. We are already planning on staying again based on how wonderful our stay was. Thanks for the memories!!

Simple and perfect
This was a very sweet cabin simply furnished with everything we needed. The location fit our needs perfectly as we spent most of our time away with friends. The owner was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any questions we had. Reminiscent of my home growing up in the early 70s

Family friendly, lots to do
The cabin was better than pictured in the listing. Larger, great views and amazing sand beach. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay including welcome pack for s’more making. The bike trail starts literally at the end of the driveway. Something for every age and interest. The owner was very responsive and helpful.

This vacation home is absolutely perfect! The property is beautufully landscaped and very well taken care of. This home has everything you need and is very cozy. Our favorite part of our stay was the beach! Just amazing.....and the fire pit was perfect! The lake is beautiful We had a party of 4 adults and 3 kids and we had plenty of room. Nisswa has always been our favorite summer destination in MN. Beautiful property!

Peaceful setup
Great location! Access to bike trail to ride bike or walk. Beach was perfect for young children. Lake great for fishing, boat ride, and not busy like other lakes. Facility met all our needs. Turtle races in Nisswa and zoo in Brainerd was highlight for my granddaughter! Will schedule again for next year.

Social Distancing getaway
The house and grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. The lake is awesome and incredibly crystal clear...fishing is good from the dock if you don't have a boat. Just a few short miles from Nisswa. Todd is very nice to work with, and emailed several times during week to see if all was good. This was our 2nd year here and would stay again.

A Retreat Nesteled Amongst 100+ White Pines And Beach Front Happiness!
We had an incredible time staying at this lovely cabin on Hubert Lake! It's very family friendly, a retreat like property and great fishing on Hubert Lake. Whether it was walking from the cabin into Nisswa for coffee, smore's on the sand beach, nature walks and fishing... Great views, great hospitality, it was total clean and simple cabin living!!! Family memories for a lifetime... :) Thank you! We will be back again.

Fabulous Family Vacation
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our end of school year getaway and can't wait to return. The property is private and very well maintained. The kids could not get enough of the enormous clean sandy beach. The lake slope dropped off perfectly to allow for my 6 and 8 year old children to jump from the dock and still have water deep enough to park our 21 foot boat on the dock. Even though we did bring our boat, we really didn't need it. The kids enjoyed swimming right from the sandy shore during the day and fished right from the dock in the evenings. They were ecstatic to catch crappie, bass, and sunnies without even leaving the dock. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The town of Nisswa was a great place to spend a day. We made good use of the state trail which we gained access to simply by walking & biking to the end of the winding driveway. Perfect location!

Beautiful setting
This is a beautiful location. It is super pretty and private, yet you do not feel isolated. The grass and flowers are very nice, huge beach, nice sand, nice dock. We enjoyed playing in the sand, having a dock to tie our boat up, and a lot of space to relax. There is a camp fire pit on the beach and you can watch the sunset and make smores. Todd has a shed you can use things out of - there were sand toys, boat bumpers, a few tubes, and more lawn chairs which we appreciated and used! The inside of the cabin is taken care of nicely, not updated in decor but certainly everything you need. The cable TV was nice when you have a child along to put on the Disney Channel while you make supper. :) We used the Paul Bunyon trail several times running through the back of the property. 2 miles / 15 minute bike into Nisswa for pizza and ice cream and shops - very fun. The lake has good fishing, husband caught a few walleyes and some bass, daughter and I caught many sun fish off the dock. We really enjoyed our time. The only thing we thought was a bit unique or odd is this rental doesn't include towels. That is part of the agreement you sign, well we forgot about it in the months that passed between booking and our arrival. So we had to wash beach towels during our stay to use as shower towels and dry hands with paper towels we brought. I take the responsibility for forgetting, and it was not a big deal, but just something to remember if you do book here that you need to bring. Overall I would recommend it, I think you will love this place and enjoy the peace, quiet and views from every part of this cabin. Truly something everyone can enjoy.
