Buckskin Guest House is nestled on 58 acres of beautiful woods yet is just a few miles from all that Crosslake and the Whitefish Chain have to offer. Its private, tree-top deck overlooks a beautiful wetlands area with two environmental lakes in the distance.

The comfortable 2 bedroom, 1 bath second story Guest House is 1200 square feet with an “up north” decor of knotty pine, gas fireplace, air conditioning and all modern amenities. The layout is an open floor plan with vaulted ceiling and a comfortable gathering area with room to spread out. The dining room comfortably seats 6 or dine outside at the high-boy table on the tree-top deck! There is sleeping room for 6 with a queen bed in one room, another queen bed in the second bedroom and a queen size hide-a-bed in the living room.

The driveway is shared with our home with the Guest House over 50 yards away surrounded on 3 sides by woods offering privacy and convenient parking.

The modern Guest House is fully furnished and includes bedding, towels, pillows and kitchenware. Reliable, free fiber optic high speed WIFI and excellent 5-bar, 4G cell phone service help keep you connected. The Guest House is Zoom compatible and a Roku streaming stick set up is included.

Close to hiking trails, swimming beaches, golf courses, boat launches, boat and toy rentals, and more, the Guest House provides a central location for access to fun! And for a night out, enjoy convenient access to the many local restaurants (10 restaurants and 3 fast food options!) or order ahead and enjoy take out in the peaceful, quiet setting of the Guest House. Want to stay in Enjoy a fire in the private fire pit or grill your own food on the gas grill on the deck. And, for an even more laid-back evening, top it off with a movie on the flat screen TV and DVD player selecting from the onsite movies or rent one from several nearby locations .

Attention Hikers!!--We are one of the closest lodging options for the Nordic Ridge Ski and Hiking Trail system for hiking. The trails can be accessed from the end of the driveway as the trails surround our property on two sides.

For bike enthusiasts, the Cuyuna Mountain Bike Trail System is only about 20 miles away! Now there's an adventure for sure. Or, enjoy the paved bike trail through town easily accessed from the driveway.

    This is an incredible place to stay if you are in the Crosslake area. It was so nice after a full day(s) of dealing with all the people to drive 4-5 minutes and have complete solitude and quiet!! The accomodations are VERY good with 2 bedrooms and one bath. All the light switches and cabinets have labels so you don't spend your time trying to figure things out. The hosts were really good at communicating during the reservation stage all the way through the stay. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a slice of heaven outside the hustle and bustle of Crosslake!

    Met our expectations perfectly! Exactly as pictured and described! We especially loved the balcony deck & we really appreciated the wonderful air-conditioning when we returned on a humid night from a super active day. Super clean, super organized with quality kitchen items, bedding & towels. It had everything we needed. Comfortable furnishings & beds, cozy and pleasing decor. Our family of five found this VRBO, the perfect respite. We enjoyed spending our days with family out on the water on the Whitefish chain of lakes and then retreating to this peacefully perfect hideaway!
