Architect Designed, Waterfront, One Bedroom Cabin Suite

This beautiful, one bedroom plus, cabin suite on the water has everything a couple could want in a newly built comfortable getaway. This charming home has a wood burning fireplace, built in sound system, flat screen TV, granite counter tops and Old Hickory Club furniture. It is air conditioned and has in floor heat for year around comfort. It also is designed with additional in wall sleeping (Murphy bed) accommodations for the occasional guest. The great room with 12 foot tall ceilings is enhanced by professionally decorated interiors with a bold use of timber posts, beams, color and antlers.

This pet free home has a fully equipped custom kitchen with stainless steel appliances, full sized laundry facilities and dishwasher. Spans of waterfront glass and a large sun deck insure great views from every room. It is also located only seven minutes from the club house of the spectacular Deacon’s Lodge Golf Course in the Brainerd Lakes Area. It is difficult to say what is more captivating, the lake views from the house with a pair of nesting swans or the high end interiors that make the house so inviting. Outside you will enjoy a panoramic view of Shaffer Lake from a large deck perched atop a wooded hill. The lake is designated a natural environment lake meaning that the shore
Around it cannot be developed into beach. It must remain wild to provide habitat for area’s abundant wild life.

A five minute drive from this home will take you to some of the finest beaches in Minnesota, on Pelican, Whitefish and Gull lakes. With binoculars, you can peer across Shaffer Lake to see the activity on the second hole of Deacon’s, proclaimed to be Arnold Palmer’s finest design and Minnesota’s number one public golf course by “Golf Week Magazine”. You will also save money when you purchase a seasonal membership at Deacon’s.

It is interesting to note that prior to its listing on VRBO, this home was managed and marketed by Grandview Lodge who managed Deacon’s Lodge Golf Course. Grandview rented this home as a one bedroom cabin suite.

Most hotels offer 250 square foot rooms. This home provides 1,000 square feet of comfort!

Wonderful cabin!!
I can not say enough about this darling cabin. It is very private, so comfortable and close to everything! It is located on a smaller lake, no boats and a beautiful pair of Swans! The Loons were wonderful in the evening. Great communication with the host!! Will be back for sure!

Beautiful cabin on busy road
Very nice cabin in a great location near Breezy Point, Cross Lake and Nisswa. Unfortunately it’s on a very busy road with noise heard on deck and inside. It wasn’t clear that there wasn’t access to the lake but sitting on the deck was very nice. Charcoal vs gas grill was a disappointment. I had problems communicating with the owner via the app but her son stepped in to help. Then we had problems getting into the cabin but resolved fairly quickly by the son. We enjoyed our stay but for the price it should have been smoother.

Lovely spot
The only complaint I would have, is that there were not cushions for the outdoor furniture, which was made of wrought iron. The weather was nice, so it would have been nice to have a comfortable spot to sit outside.

Beautiful area.
We checked in after 4:30 as instructed by host. The problem was no one cleaned up after the last guest. Called the host and she would call us back. We have not heard from her. We are at home now. Very disappointed we had to strip the bed, take out the garbage, remove dirty towels and linens. Do the dishes. There was no toilet paper in the house so we had to go to the store before we could settle in.

Never got to stay - owner rented out and hasn’t refunded money
I am so disappointed, we rented this cabin on short notice for our 25th anniversary. When I return the signed contract (and had also paid), I received a note saying the cabin was already rented and to select other dates. I asked for clarification as that seemed odd and never heard back from owner. Phone number listed does not work. I wrote again asking for clarification and to please cancel and refund my money so I could make another reservation and I never heard from owner again. VRBO has said they are working on it but I’ve heard nothing back. This cabin sounded lovely, but we never got to find out. I feel like we got taken….

Weekend Getaway :D
Beautiful and Cozy! One of the best cabins I’ve stayed at in quite a while! Tucked away off the main road. Was one of the more relaxing stays. The view overlooking the lake was just gorgeous in the early morning. And the sunset, phenomenal! I would recommend my friends and family a stay here! I would love to come back!

Such a nice cabin to relax in on a Fall weekend with my spouse. The only thing that could have been a tad bit better was the queen bed. It wasn't very comfortable. Other than that it was a great stay.

Beautiful cabin, beautiful views
Florence's place is truly amazing! It had nearly all the amenities we needed for a 3-night stay. The views from the rooms were gorgeous, night sky was very visible. There was traffic noise during the day which decreased at night. After a few hiccups on both sides during booking, we found her cabin to be located in a centralized area for what were were planning to do with good hiking and restaurants nearby. The only recommendations we would make would be to be a little more flexible with check-in times (since the unit was not booked the prior evening), include some firewood for the first evening and the kitchen knives were not sharp enough when cooking dinner.

Florence, thanks again for the accommodations. We have been using VRBO for many years now. Your property is no doubt one of the cleanest by far. Size and location fit our needs perfectly. The entire process was a breeze. Thank you for your timely communication, detailed instructions and attention to detail when it comes to cleanliness.

Cabin hadn’t been cleaned when we arrived, but owner took care of quickly. We thought the cabin was lovely…great views. Kind of difficult to access. More signage to find would be helpful…at least for the driveway off the 11. Sign with address was nestled in trees.
