"Great stay"

Nisswa Hotel and Suites

8/10 Good

"It was fine for the price. The linens and towels were washed, but stained. They should be replaced. The self check in worked perfectly."

Cragun's Resort & Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was a beautiful room with a lake view!"

Quarterdeck Resort & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"Quarterdeck was amazing! The property is beautiful with all of our rooms overlooking Gull Lake. Big balconies with chairs to sit outside and watch the sunset or sunrise over the lake. Rooms have either a full kitchen or a kitchenette. The amenities in the rooms were great. I typically don’t sleep well in hotels because the beds are uncomfortable but the beds here were amazing! I woke up feeling so well rested, and not sore from an uncomfortable bed. We will definitely be bringing the kids and grandkids back up for a family vacation!"

Escape to Your Private Lakefront Paradise on Lake Shamineau. Brand New Remodel!

8/10 Good

"Nice place. Great view. Host was friendly. His dad was friendlier. Lake was low but we were still able to get some pan fishing in."

Brainerd Lakes Cabin Get Away? Yes Please!

10/10 Excellent

"The property was even better than expected and in 10 years of renting a family summer cabin at various VRBO’s , the host was the best by far. Best communication, best check in /check out instructions and timely responses. The layout worked well for our multi generational family( keep in mind there are stairs up and down /split level if anyone I. Your party can’t do stairs) , having 3 bathrooms was a huge plus, beds were comfortable and very well stocked kitchen. We usually bring water toys, life jackets, tubes, etc and this year they never left the car because they supplied everything !!! The close fire pit was a great benefit and the sandy beach ( along with even sand toys!) was great for the kids. The lake was extremely low so unfortunately no swimming but the fishing was excellent and the 3 kayaks was great fun. Highly recommend the property!"
