Nisswa

"Wild Pines Getaway was the perfect spot for our family. The home brought back wonderful memories for us, as we used to vacation there every summer when our kids were young. The accommodations were truly great, and it was wonderful to return to the area after all these years. An ideal location for hiking the Paul Bunyan Trail, shopping in Nisswa, and simply relaxing. It had all the amenities and comforts we needed to enjoy ourselves. We will definitely consider Wild Pines Getaway again!"

Top Brainerd Hotel Reviews

Cragun's Resort & Hotel

8/10 Good

"They are remodeling- the bar and dining area are awesome - the burger is VERY good. The rooms are meh. The front desk didn’t give great information - did not notify us when our room was ready (didn’t have/ask for our phone number). Didn’t inform us there was not daily cleaning. We loved the marina and was great for our boat."

The Lodge at Brainerd Lakes, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"The room was clean, the staff was helpful. I didn't eat at the restaurant but my sons had breakfast and said it was better than most hotel complimentary breakfasts. We didn't use the waterpark but saw other people enjoying it. It looked like more for kids to me personally. We did use the arcade and played pool and had a good time doing that."

Pet Friendly-Secluded-Fire Pit-300mbps internet

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin is in a lovely setting surrounded by woods. It's been nicely renovated on the inside, and we enjoyed sitting outside as well. One caveat is that you should only plan on using the loft if you're comfortable with ladders and don't mind only a few feet of head room."

NEW - The Boardwalk on North Long Lake Brainerd with Hot Tub, Pet-Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for a quiet get away. The dock is set up really nice for kids to be able to get in and out of the lake and the kayaks and paddleboards that they suppy were very fun. Lots of room for kids to run and play in the front and back of the house."

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!"
