This was a very nice property that was clean and updated. Bathrooms are wonderful if you have more adults. Bedrooms were lovely but pull out couch very uncomfortable - only negative that I would have. We really enjoyed our stay here and would come back again.

We arrived and the place was very clean and a very nice place. I would recommend this VRBO to anyone looking in this area. The cabin was equipped with all of the cooking utensils, dishes, glasses etc you would need. the boys had a lot of fun on the paddle boat and the Kayaks and even caught several fish.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin on Crooked Lake! The place was spotless, cozy, and exactly as described. The living space was comfortable with plenty of room to relax, and the big windows gave us beautiful views of the lake. The kitchen was well-stocked, making it easy to cook meals together. The host was welcoming and made everything simple from check-in to check-out. We especially enjoyed spending time on the lake and relaxing on the deck...we’d love to come back!

Amazing place to celebrate our buddy getting married!

The place was absolutely perfect. It fit all of us guys, was clean, stocked up fully with bathroom essentials, and even came with a little goodie/gift when we arrived. The host was speedy in responding to any questions and helpful in all ways. The place is in a beautiful spot on the lake and close to Brainerd and Garrison. I highly recommend this vrbo spot and will hopefully be back to stay again.
