Private, family friendly lake home w/sandy beach in Crosslake on Pine Lake

A private, family-friendly haven awaits with a secluded, southern exposure beach, crystal-clear waters and sandy floor of Pine Lake and a beautiful knotty-pine lake home on 1.6 acres. Up to 10 guests will be comfortable in this 3-bedroom, 2- full bath home in Crosslake. Enjoy views of the beach and lake from the two-story window, screened-in porch or wrap-around deck or take a 30ft stroll through the grass to swim, play or watch kiddos in the water. With other attractions and Whitefish chain nearby, there’s sure to be something for everyone to enjoy!

Great cabin but gross lake
The cabin itself is very nice inside, with great finishes and furnishing and a mostly clean interior. The cabin has a great lake view and multiple options to enjoy it including a screened porch and large deck with grill and dining table. The location near Crosslake is great for trips in town for groceries, dining, and activities. Unfortunately our stay was mostly ruined due to the lake beach area being gross and un-swimmable, despite the listing's claim of "crystal clear waters." The entire swimming area was filled with disgusting green and brown moss and pond scum floating on top of the water. And while the owners have trucked in some sand to cover the bottom of the initial few feet of beachfront, the lake itself is mucky-bottomed starting about 10 feet out, so stepping around or jumping in from the dock stirs up all sorts of gross lake muck. If you are looking for a nice cabin to enjoy some lake views and excursions around the area, this is a great place. If you are looking for a place to enjoy swimming and beach play with younger kids (which was our main goal), I would recommend looking elsewhere. We greatly look forward to our once-a-summer lake cabin stays, and we were incredibly disappointed to not be able to enjoy our favorite activity of swimming and playing by the beach with our young kids this year.

This was our third trip to this wonderful home! We had another fabulous week. The house was super clean, welcoming, and homey. We loved reading on the porch, bonfires and s'mores, fishing off the dock, canoeing and kayaking, and playing cards at the great new table! Thanks for sharing your wonderful property with us!

Very nice house. Very comfortable, great location. Kids had a great time fishing off the dock. They caught a lot of fish. We used the firepit to do s’mores, thanks to our hosts that left us a very nice welcome gift. Hosts were very quick to respond to any questions we had. Quiet beautiful lake. Would definitely recommend!

Great spot!
This property was perfect for a family gathering! The kids loved playing catch with a football in the yard, the swingset and fishing from the dock. The adults loved the campfire area and overall the relaxing vibe of the place. It has anything you could want and is close to other fun attractions. Would stay here any day!

Beautiful Place and Gracious Hosts
We had a wonderful weekend in this lovely cabin. The location is right on the lake in a wooded area and near the town of Cross Lake. Everything was clean and tidy. The kitchen was great as we enjoy cooking. The accommodations were just right for our party. Importantly, the hosts were very responsive and eager to make our stay an enjoyable one.

This cabin was everything we hoped it would be. Excellent location in the heart of Crosslake, close to many restaurants along with mini-golf and ice cream for the kiddo’s. Big Pine lake while shallow was great for our rented pontoon, and swimming for the kids. The Peterson’s were excellent to work with, and got back to us on anything we needed. Highly recommend, we will be back!

This property was very clean and inviting. We loved the warm welcome provided by the owners. Our communication with the owners was very good and any questions were responded to quickly.

Perfect R&R Stay
Beautiful, clean, well-equipped cabin on a lovely, quiet lake. Perfect stay for outdoor fun in the kayaks, canoe, around the fire pit and relaxing on the deck or 3-season porch. Well maintained & private property. Fishing was good, even from the dock. Grandkids enjoyed pulling in sunnies & crappies. Truly something for everyone and a great family vacation destination! 😊

Perfect get away for our family vacation! We loved everything about this property. Beautiful home! Great location. Amazing fishing. I loved everything. The house, the view, the dock, the fire pit, the kayaks, the screened in porch…just to name a few things. We walked into a gorgeous view and a housewarming gift from the owners. The sheets and blankets were soft, the beds and furniture were so comfortable, the dishes were nice. It was well stocked with everything you could think of or need. I highly recommend this place and we hope to go back soon! Thank you to the owners. Well done!

Another amazing week at this cabin! We brought our 3 kids (8, 6, and 3) and this place is perfect for kids. We could see them in the yard and beach from the cabin. The attached 3 season porch was also very relaxing with our kids inside. We have been coming here for 3 summers now and are looking forward to another trip next summer!

Amazing Girlfriends Weekend
There are 8 of us (in our 40s) that get together every spring for a girlfriends weekend. We enjoyed every moment at this cabin, so much that we plan to book for next year as well. The cabin is exactly as pictured, but so much more. There was plenty of space for our group to relax, play cards, enjoy dinner on the deck, and sit around the bonfire. The kitchen is thoughtfully stocked, down to providing all the necessary cleaning supplies (dish soap, dishwasher pods, etc). There was plenty of towels, paper towels, and toilet paper to last the weekend (that is not always necessarily provided). The beds were really comfortable and the two bathrooms were spacious. We were sad to leave, but excited to know we can book for next year and enjoy this cabin once again!
