The Boathouse-on the Whitefish Chain of Lakes

The Boathouse is a very cute, cozy cabin that has comfortable furniture, is clean and well maintained. It is cozy and as the photos/description show (but cuter). The kitchen is small, but all you need to cook and refrigerate. It was great for a girl's weekend!The dock is a bit wobbly, so use caution! As the description notes, the lower level is only accessed by the exterior, so for those sleeping downstairs, you'll need to go outside and upstairs to access the bathroom. It is not an issue, as the stairway is lit and it is only a short stairway. We would have liked to turn off the outside stairway lights because we wanted to watch and photograph the stars, milky way and aurora, but we just covered them with a towel while we were out, and all was good.We had a wonderful time exploring the area, star gazing, having a small bonfire and enjoying the beautiful view! Thank you!

Very cute cabin. Good view of the lake. Host was very responsive to our needs.

Cabin was absolutely perfect for the 2 of us. A delightful basement for 2 others to stay and have their space. Loved the location.

Absolutely ideal! Skip every hotel in town - enjoy the lake that is literally a step from your porch door. We brought simple meals, explored the town, went to a beautiful wedding & were the envy of many when we showed them our breakfast view. It was unseasonably hot-October, but the Boathouse AC and ceiling fans were perfect. Kitchen has everything you need for your porch meals or midnight snacks. The area downstairs is perfect for two kiddos or another couple to share - everyone would have privacy or a place to escape for a mid-afternoon nap. The communication was fast & straightforward; everything was CLEAN!; and we would come back in a heart beat! Thank you for a lovely weekend.

Wonderful cabin on the lake. Cozy with great view from screened in porch. Great host - everything you needed was there. Great shower and comfy bed. Kitchen well stocked. A perfect getaway close to Crosslake.

Loved the boathouse! The porch and being so close to the water are fabulous. Well-appointed, comfortable, relaxing and so convenient to everything in town. Great hosts, very responsive. Overall a wonderful stay, thank you!

We enjoyed the cottage so much...especially loved watching the wildlife near the lake and hearing the loons!

It was a great getaway! Thank you!

Perfect location for our anniversary, just like the sign inside says, small but nice. Had everything we needed. Had a great bonfire on the lake. Caught fish off the dock. Was very close to town. Comfortable bed. Eating area overlooking lake was spectacular. Hosts were very easy to work with and communicated well.

See click reviews above. Just wanted to add the online site was accurate. The porch was more roomy then I thought from the photo. Some may have difficulty going. To th other side of the queen bed if they have mobility issues.

Great property! We stayed here for a wedding that was down the street, and made a little weekend out of it. The size of the property was perfect for 2 people. We loved the screened in porch and little beach area. Also was great to have the options of kayaks to use! Would love to return in the future!

A beautiful and cozy cabin right on the lakeshore. We took advantage of cool nights to have a fire on the lakeshore under the stars. Perfect front porch for morning coffee. Great location: close to everything. Will definitely return!

Really enjoyed this cozy cabin right on the lake. The property has games/puzzles, two kayaks, and a charcoal grill which we took advantage of!

perfect location close to everything

The Boathouse was the perfect, cozy stay for two people.

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Boat House. It was our first visit and the smaller size was a prefect fit for my wife and I. A typical day started with coffee overlooking the lake, daily walks, and plenty of lake time with the boat. We enjoyed the smaller lake setting and the calming sounds of loon each evening. Thank you for sharing this place with us.

We really enjoyed our stay. The place was perfect for a girls getaway!! The location was great. We enjoyed using the kayaks We also liked the restaurant options , ice cream shop, and mini golfing in Crosslake !!

We loved our stay at the adorable boat house. We brought our fishing boat and used the access a short distance from the property. We enjoyed sunset cruises and lunch at the lakeside restaurants. The screened in porch is the best! Thanks for letting us enjoy your cute boat house!

It's a charming cottage right over the water, very quiet, clean and peaceful. Close to restaurants (few minutes by car) but really nice just for hanging out. Would recommend for sure!

This place was small, but clean and nicely decorated. Only downside would be no bathroom in lower level, but since I was alone, it didn’t affect me. I’ll be back.

Small cabin / boat house nicely done, on a beautiful lake. Our family enjoyed our time here! Thank you!
