Quaint Cabin on Sibley Lake PONTOON INCLUDED thru early October.

Look no further if a true Minnesota cabin experience is what you're after. Once you arrive, the path to the "Stairway to Heaven" will quickly make you realize why you made the trek Up North. This 1940’s cabin was fully renovated in the winter of 2018 and is essentially brand new inside and out, but the charm of the original cabin has been maintained and is evident throughout. You get the true cabin feel as you enter the main level which combines the family room and dining area for an open, yet cozy feel. The wood-burning fireplace on the main level will warm you up quickly on those cooler nights (firewood included). Enjoy meals at the dining room table or grab a book and snuggle up in front of the fireplace or on the built-in bench; all while overlooking Brown's Bay. This level also includes a custom-made Murphy bed that converts to a game table for chess and checkers matches. The quaint kitchen packs all of the amenities you could need, including stainless steel appliances along with a double-drawer beverage fridge. The main level also includes a full bathroom with a walk-in tiled shower and additional storage.
The excitement builds as you head up the spiral stairs to the master bedroom, your expectations will most definitely be met as you feel on top of the world all while overlooking Sibley Lake from every angle. You can head out onto the balcony to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine and take in amazing sunset views. The master bathroom has been fully remodeled to include a farmhouse sink, walk-in tiled shower with glass doors and jetted sprays. You will not want to get out of bed in the morning as you will wake up and want to take in all of the beauty that surrounds this room.
As you head back down the spiral staircase, you will then head outside down the exterior staircase into the lower level of the house where you will find Bob’s bar, a perfect spot to hang out with your friends and family or sit and relax and enjoy a movie or game on the flat screen TV. This room also has a leather couch that pulls out into a queen-size bed to allow for additional sleeping space.
As you head out of the lower level you will walk across the patio to the upper boat house. This will likely be the kids or maybe the parents favorite place to hang out as it will feel like their little getaway space. The boathouse has built-in bunk beds, along with a day bed for comfortable sleeping. You will feel like you are sleeping on the water as the boathouse is situated just steps away from the lakeshore.
As you head out of the cabin, you are just steps away from the dock that is perfect for fishing, swimming, and relaxing. Head out for a cruise around the lake or to the sand bar on the 2019 Sylvan fish and cruise pontoon (rental of cabin includes the pontoon boat). Everyone loves a good campfire and s'mores, so the shoreline also boasts a firepit and Adirondack chairs to enjoy the fire and the lake views on those beautiful Minnesota summer evenings. Finally, the cedar sauna house and patio are a perfect place to begin or end your day. With beautiful views of Sibley Lake, relax and enjoy some quiet time away from all the hustle and bustle.
For those that like to stay connected or to not miss the Wild, Twins, Vikings, United, or T-Wolves games, both the main and lower-level bar have high-definition TV’s with DirectTV or streaming with free fast Wi-Fi.
This property is perfect for a family, or an extended family, or a couple’s getaway. Upon reservation confirmation you will receive a complete list of what to bring, so you are prepared for your time at the lake. Please feel free to inquire with any questions you may have and will promptly reply. We pride ourselves on maintaining our property and keep it in excellent condition, we are certain we will exceed your expectations in this regard. Since we also live across the lake from the cabin, should any questions or issues arise we can respond quickly.
NOTE: There are a number of stairs on the property as you will see in the photos. We purchased the cabin from folks in their 90’s so we believe these stairs keep you young. There is a hill tram conveniently located to help bring people, supplies and luggage up and down from street level to the cabin and is available for use year-round.
NOTE: The pontoon is in the water, and use is included in the stated rental rates, from approximately mid-May to mid-October (weather dependent).
NOTE: The main cabin includes a central air heating and cooling system. The bunkhouse includes a ductless split that provides both heat and cooling.

Best birthday ever
My wife and I had an amazing time at browns bay cabin for her birthday. The cabin was very clean and recently updated with all the amenities you could ever need. The boat was an awesome add on and the tram to get bags and groceries up and down the hill was a life saver. We will definitely be staying again!

Recharging getaway
Krista was a fantastic host. This was our first trip since our son was born. The cabin was such a lovely place to recharge and focus on enjoying each other’s company. Check-in and check-out were a breeze and Krista sent all sorts of recommendations for things to get out and do during our stay. We will definitely be back.

Great place to vacation
Everything you need to have an incredible vacation is here. FYI…there are a lot of steps, so if you have someone who is unable to walk a lot of steps, it would be difficult for them. But, we had a wonderful time and you can’t beat the views.

The cabin is perfect for a small family. We had a wonderful time! The boat is very nice and in great condition. The grocery store and gas station are right down the road so it’s super convenient.

Minnesota lake
We had a wonderful time! We loved the place and the setting. We took the pontoon out for a sunset cruise - lovely fall color - and paddled all around the lake in the canoe. I even got to take a short swim. The accommodations were so cozy and comfortable. My husband especially loved the boat house.

Incredible summer getaway.
We absolutely loved this property. It felt like a storybook cottage. It was so welcoming and clean, the boathouse bunk room was perfect for the older teens to sleep, nice cold AC on a 90 degree day. The pontoon is very nice! The stairs were fun and gave us good exercise! Comfortable beds and bedding, nice showers, beautiful dock. I’d definitely rent again.

Pequot Cabin
Cabin was everything stated. Very clean and comfortable. Easy and accessible comunication with the owners. Highly recommended if your not afraid of steps. The electric trolly was very helpful. The only thing i would recommed is to stop and get bait before you get to Pequot Lakes. The bait shop didn't have any bait the 3 days we were there
