Escape to this lakefront retreat in Pequot Lakes, set among the pines on the shores of Sibley Lake. Panoramic windows bring in natural light and frame peaceful views through the tall pines, with beautiful sunsets glowing over the lake each evening.

The home comfortably sleeps up to 11 guests across four cozy bedrooms - featuring two king beds, one queen, and a bunk setup with a full and twin, and a main floor living room queen sofa sleeper - making it ideal for families or small groups.

With 1,400 square feet of living space across two levels, there’s plenty of room to spread out and unwind. Spend your days on the lake with complimentary kayaks, relax on the swim mat off the private dock, or explore the shoreline and nearby Mayo Creek for a peaceful paddle. You’ll also have access to five complimentary bikes for rides around the area or into town, along with outdoor games for easy, laid-back fun.

Evenings are all about gathering around the firepit and taking in the sunset views over the lake, one of the most memorable parts of staying here.

For even more time on the water, a pontoon is available to rent during your stay, and a public boat launch is just minutes away.

While the setting feels private and tucked among the pines, you’re just a short walk to downtown Pequot Lakes for groceries, restaurants, coffee shops, and a dog park. You’re also close to boutique shopping in nearby Nisswa, and only a half mile from the Paul Bunyan State Trail for biking, walking, or snowmobiling.

Red Pine Hideaway is just 6 miles from the popular town of Nisswa. Here, you can explore local shops, dining, and attractions, ensuring your stay is the perfect mix of peaceful lakefront living and accessible small-town charm.

Come and create lasting memories in a place where tranquility meets adventure. Whether you're paddling the calm lake waters, cycling through the scenic Paul Bunyan Trail, or simply unwinding by the water's edge, our Pequot Lakes cabin is your ideal getaway.

    Carla was absolutely amazing in answering all of my questions. She made us feel welcome. The home is beautiful and the overlook on the lake was relaxing/calming. We didn’t utilize the fire pit due to the pine needles but we did have the option if we weren’t being lazy we plan on making this a yearly trip and look forward to coming back in the spring/summer.

    Beautiful cabin in the woods - check in was flawless. The kitchen had more than enough for dishes and pots and pans - beautiful and quality dishes. Only drawback for us was no railing on the steps. We are in our late 60s and mid 70's. Limited our time on the water. All in all - it was a fabulous time!! Would highly recommend

    We had a great time at this cabin. The property is clean and felt very safe. The location is amazing - right on the lakeshore overlooking Lake Sibley, close to downtown Pequot Lakes, and a short drive from Nisswa. The pontoon and kayaks were great for time on the lake, and the firepit was perfect for evening fires. We had a minor issue with the pontoon, but the hosts were very responsive to our messages and resolved the issue quickly and to our full satisfaction. We would love to stay here again!

    Just got back from our visit to this cozy yet roomy lakeside retreat. Used it to both chill and find some quiet time to do some strategic planning for myself. This place did not disappoint. Everything you need is there, and the hosts were organized and always friendly and helpful. Plenty of room to fine with friends and plenty of small places to lounge and chill. That fireplace is also wonderful. Highly recommend.

    Beautiful setting with fresh snow on the pines surrounding this cozy and comfortable home. Perfect for gathering with our adult children and family dog. We enjoyed snowshoeing on the lake, meals in the dining room with a lakeview, games, by the fire, and dog walks on the quiet road. A great space for our weekend to connect. Great communication and very responsive hosts.for ouf

    Three siblings plus spouses stayed for a four-day weekend. We enjoyed the fire pit and the pontoon boat ride, plus time playing games and just relaxing. Accommodations were great, even with just one bathroom! Would stay again!

    Our family just enjoyed time at this incredibly charming cabin and it was an absolutely perfect relaxing trip. We took the bikes for a nice ride into town, spent lots of time exploring the tranquil lake, and had everything at our fingertips inside the comfortable cabin. The trip was made even more special since our Dogs could tag along. The local dog park is just a short walk away and was so convenient. Would rent this property again if even just for the sunsets!
