Very quiet location on Miller Lake. Arrived to a clean beautiful cabin with everything provided (bring towels). Close drives to Garrison, Brainerd and Crosby, for groceries and restaurants. We used this stay to attend Heartland Hockey Camp, about 15 mins away. You will love the cabin’s charm. Thank you, Rick and Cindy!!!
Nice cozy clean cabin. We were there before summer season got started. Plenty of wood to burn in the stove and stayed warm.
Great experience and time well spent away from busy work life. Hosts are fantastic and we would recommend staying here to anyone! Cabin is setup well, clean and very comfortable.
We enjoyed our Mom/Sister extended weekend getaway. We caught lots of fish paddling around the lake on the peddle pontoon. This was also a great location close to our favorite shops in Nisswa and Brainerd. Rick and Cindy are great hosts and have a beautifully maintained property.
3 hrs away from the hustle and bustle of the cities and their bedroom communities, we enjoyed a tranquil week at this jewel of a lake cottage! This served as our base of operations for forays to Brainerd, Baxter, Crow Wing State Park, Crosby, Garrison/Lake Mille Lacs and to Lake Itasca for a view of the headwaters of the Mississippi River. We rode bicycles on the Paul Bunyan State Trail! We sat in the rocking chairs our hosts, Rick & Cindy had so thoughtfully put on the dock! We soaked up the sun, fished/caught fish, saw otters swim by the dock, watched a hawk/osprey catch a fish from the lake, and listened to acorns fall from the oak trees and used the host's paddle pontoon for a short float on the lake. The cottage was charming, tidy and comfortable. There was a well-outfitted kitchen, a great hot shower, picture windows for picturesque views of the lake and a wood stove with wood to heat the cottage! We like woodstoves and campfire! It reminded us of some camps and cottages we've stayed at in the U.P. of Michigan, the Snowies of Wyoming, and Missouri's Ozarks! Places where you could get back in touch with Nature and back in touch with family and self! Thanks again to our hosts for sharing this oasis with us! We would like to return and bring our grandson with us next time!
We escaped the heat wave and enjoyed cool breezes and great sleeping weather at this quiet, picturesque little cabin. Just what we needed!
My family and I had a wonderful time. Relaxed, swam, and fished. Caught sunnies off the dock. Also caught Northern and Bass on the pontoon. The hosts were wonderful.
The photos do not do this property justice. This property is exceptionally well-kept and stocked with everything you need. The cabin sits on an incredibly clean private lake with some great fishing. The owner is super friendly. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing lake-side cabin 10 minutes from a grocery store and a bait shop, this is it. Great family room, two nice bedrooms with closets and dressers, kitchen stocked with everything you need, and a new, clean bathroom. I can't believe we were so lucky to be able to enjoy this property for a week. Incredible.
Everything was great. This was the second time staying here and it diy disappoint.
Fun family vacation. Cabin fit our family of 5 perfectly. Fishing was good, our girls loved fishing off the dock and swimming. Our son enjoyed taking the kayak out to fish the rest of the lake. Water was nice, warm and clean. Great shallow swimming off the dock for our kids. Thank you Taplins' for a great stay!
Was a great cabin to stay at, perfect+++
We will plan on going again….caught nice pike and bass off the paddle boat…..exercise and fishing at same time!!
Cabin was as advervised. Quiet with a good location.
Nice, clean place, right on the lake! The cabin has everything you need! Clean lake with clear water and great fishing! The pontoon paddle boat was fun to take out on the lake too. Had a nice quiet vacation with my hubby! Only thing was, the dog across the lake, barking for 2hrs, everyday. It's so quiet on the water, so the barking just echos throughout the area. That's not the owners fault, and the rest of the time was very peaceful. Definitely recommend!
Had a great time. The lake is smaller --but very clean-nice fishing, swimming. Close to town. We really enjoyed our stay.
