About this property
Lake home on quiet recreational lake with hot tub. Close to "Up North" amenities
With 3+ acres on the lake there is lots to do and explore. Bring up your bikes and hit the Cuyuna trails, explore Paul Bunyan Land, take the kayak out on the lake, swim off the dock, relax on the deck, bring your boat and go fishing-the options are endless. Our home offers 3 bedrooms, a full bath and laundry on the lower level. Upstairs is a large open kitchen/dining/living room with a 1/2 bath. The french doors lead from the living room to the oversized deck and grilling area. Take the walkway off the deck to the steps and head down to the lake. Enjoy swimming off the brand new 30' dock with 12'x10' patio (little to no weeds!), access to our double kayak, paddle board and lily pad available to use during your stay. Bring your boat and launch it just down the road at the public boat launch (you can tie it to the dock as well). Watch the sunset over the lake from the newly built deck and relax in the hot tub or sit by the fire watching the stars.15 minutes to Crosby (Cuyuna trails bike trails/scenic lookout), 20 minutes to downtown Brainerd, 7 minutes to Paul Bunyan Land, 15 minutes to Mille Lacs lake.

This was an amazing get away from home and the place was beautiful! The hosts were always available if we had any questions but everything was set up so well that I didn’t have any questions. I would definitely stay here again!
This house was beautiful inside and out. The lake was amazing! My children were finishing machines and loved the triple bunk room! Check in and out process was super easy and the owner is so friendly! We had deer visit daily and the sunsets on the dock were beautiful. Definitely recommend staying here if you’re looking for a lake house!
Had a great few days at Nokay Lake with all the property had to offer… appreciated the minor updates from our initial stay two years ago. The deck is awesome, the hot tub a bonus and the trip down to the water is still a workout. Appreciate the host’s responsiveness and open dialogue.
Britney was very communicative and the home was gorgeous! Great location on the lake, had so much room for outdoor activities and the home provided all of the amenities needed. We had an amazing stay! Definitely will be back :)
This place really has it all! The cabin itself is a great place to stay with all the amenities that you need to really enjoy yourself without any worries. The owners communicate really well if there are any questions/concerns. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a few days away from the "madness". Thank you!
It is a very nice house and property with a nice view of the lake. It is about 95 steps down to the lake. So be in good shape to walk back up. The amenities are plentiful.
We had a great, relaxing girls weekend! Perfect getaway to enjoy the fall colors, and relaxed in the hot tub! Property was perfect, clean and excellent communication with the hosts! Thank you! 😊
The cabin was beautiful and had everything you needed. If there was something you forgot they had you covered and if not town was 15-20 minutes away to go grab it. It was quiet and private, and had plenty of room to play games and chill outside.
The accommodations were excellent with all the amenities of home as well as water toys. Britney was very responsive. Fishing was decent despite night rains and hot days. We rented a pontoon from the local resort on the lake, which was convenient. Would definitely recommend.
We had an amazing time! The property was perfect. Our kids are ages 3 and 7 and they had tons of fun with the playground, toys, lily pad, games, bikes, and other activities. The lakefront was just gorgeous and we made awesome memories on the water with our kids. The paddle board was particularly fun for the adults to try. The kitchen was set up so well to cook and the indoor and outdoor areas were spacious to eat and hang out. We had everything we needed except more time. Hope to come back again!
The property is out of town on a hill by a lake. Beautiful lake view from back deck, which was very peaceful to sit on in the morning and evening. The deck was also very well appointed with a grill, smoker, prep table, and ample seating with an umbrella. This area was the highlight of the property.
The inside kitchen was well appointed, except we couldn't find a larger frying pan but made due and had plenty of dishes and silverware.
Kitchen area had some house rules but some contradictory info in the book. We did our best to follow them.
Living room area was ok and it was nice to have the roku. Seating was ok but was an awkward setup for our evening movie, the tv was very high.
Main entry was nice. Plenty of space. However, there was not a handrail on the stairs to get to the main living area.
The master bedroom was nice but no closet or any space for clothes. The other two bedrooms were nice KID rooms but not for adults. One room has only a double bed that made it difficult for my son and his fiancee to sleep in, it is not meant for a couple. The other room is bunkbeds that our adult daughter slept in. The house seems best for one couple with young kids.
Getting down to and back up from the lake is difficult as there are a LOT of stairs with no handrails. We were disappointed as the beach is not really a sandy walk in type of beach. It is covered with larger algae covered rocks making it slippery and difficult to walk in the water.
beach. It had huge rocks
We had a fantastic time while staying here. The place had everything and I mean everything you could possibly need. If you are looking for a place in the Brainerd area I definitely recommend staying here.
This very private home had every we were looking for and more. I overpacked because I didn't realize how well-stocked it was. We loved it so much that we booked it again for next year before we left. We only left once during a 4 night stay and I was never bored; I especially loved hanging out by the shore with the dock, fire pit, and loons, turtles, and an osprey that frequent the area.
Great week of overall accommodations and weather (yes, our host even provided GREAT weather over our July 4th holiday week, LOL). Appreciated all the amenities; great space for our family of Mom, Dad and 4 kiddos! The property was clean and comfortable. Really enjoyed the large deck, the hot tub and lake dock. Nice swim area, plus kids able to fish from the dock. Great communication connection with the owners.
