The Cottage is the perfect place to unplug and unwind. This comfortable cabin/house sits on a 2 acre wooded lot that provides privacy, relaxation and plenty of wildlife. 3.4 easy miles to Nisswa, 9 miles to Gull Lake, 19 to Crosslake MN and is easily accessible off of HWY 371. The cabin is great for a family vacation or girls/guys weekend. This is a very private location yet close to lakes, bike trails, rivers, shopping, restaurants, local breweries, and wineries. Outside fire pit(firewood provided), gas grill, back porch attached right off of the family room.

The cabin has 3 bedrooms, 2 living rooms and 2 full bathrooms. 1 king bed in master bedroom along with a TV, other 2 bedrooms have queen beds. There is an additional queen day bed in the family room area.
