About this cottage rental
Top of the line design highlights this 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom cottage with sunset views on the water’s edge of Gull Lake. Finished in 2016, this cottage sits just 50 feet from the level shoreline on the original site of two historic Gull Lake cabins. The premium mid-lake Squaw Point location has close proximity to almost every attraction and activity in the area.
Inside the cottage, rough cut custom oak hardwood floors run throughout the open main level. The main floor opens to the lake, with a lake view of almost full glass provided by 3 matching sets of 6 foot wide sliding glass doors. At ground level, all three sliding glass doors access a full deck attached to the entire front side of the cottage. The deck sits just a couple feet above the water level for excellent views and easy mobility for all ages.
Granite kitchen counter tops and breakfast bar seating in the kitchen serves small groups, plus there is a separate dining table for four people inside. Additionally, dine outside on the deck’s hand-set stone table with 6 comfortable, swivel patio chairs. The kitchen’s new Whirlpool stainless appliances include a side-by-side refrigerator-freezer, dishwasher and natural gas stove top and oven.
The main level features a gas fireplace, full couch with a lake view, chairs, center ottomans with storage inside, and a 32” flat screen TV. The main floor master bedroom includes a queen bed, 42” flat screen TV and a bathroom en suite with a custom glass door walk-in shower. Also, on the main level, the powder room includes full size, front-loading laundry washer and dryer.
Upstairs, the lakeside king bedroom includes a king bed and 50” flat screen TV and closet. The nautical-themed shared bathroom upstairs features a tub-shower combination and tile. The third bedroom is a bunk room format with a twin/full bunk combination and drawers beneath. The bunk room includes a 50” flat Screen TV. Ample closet space is provided in all the bedrooms.
Besides the finest of amenities inside, bonus outdoor toys are included in the rental. In Spring and Summer, a kayak and a stand up paddle board are included and stored on the brand new DH Dock that is shared by the two matching cottages. The dock includes a sturdy 7-step staircase with a hand rail into the water for safe fun for all ages. For those bringing your own boat, you will love tying off conveniently to the dock, which is included in the rental. Every dock post is covered with a Brock Dock pole cover to reduce the risk of damage to your boat when tied up. A boat access and parking area for your boat trailer is just 100 feet away. Alternatively, a 2016 Premier pontoon with 115 HP Four Stoke Suzuki outboard is located on the dock and can be rented for additional easy, lake fun .
In addition to having the premier area golf courses a few miles away, the Cottages are located on the best point on the lake. The premier swimming spot on Squaw Point is only a few hundred yards away. Ernie’s on Gull lakeside restaurant is 100 feet away with a classic vacation vibe and outdoor amenities, like a kid’s playground, sand volleyball courts, and easy, good meals. Brainerd International Raceway, Maddens, Craguns, The Legacy Golf Course and even Mini-Golf are all within a few miles.
In Autumn, create your own fall colors tours via the local trails, parks, or roads and, of course, the lake tours are amazing. Hunters know that Gull Lake’s best waterfowl hunting is just across the bay and down the point. A short drive north provides upland hunting and sporting clays at Hunts Point Preserve or trap and range shooting at the Lakeshore Conservation Club. Endless upland, small game and deer hunting is just a few miles to the west in the Pillsbury State Forest and on miles of public land.
For winter fun, snowmobilers love the level lake access and can drive right up to the front door for easy snowmobile access to the groomed trail that crosses Gull Lake just in front of the cottage. Skiers love the trails and Mount Ski Gull, which is in view just across the lake. Ice fishing house rental is available for fishing out front of the Cottage on main Gull Lake.

We loved the cottage! VERY clean, comfortable, quiet, and had everything you needed for a great stay right on the lake. We enjoyed the pontoon on the most beautiful day, and appreciated the closeness of town for non-lake activities. Host was very easy to communicate with and was very quick to respond to inquiries and to rent the pontoon. We would definitely rent again!

Our kids enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards (even with the chilly water). We loved being close to Ernie's for volleyball and playground as well their food and beverages! We already rebooked for two more trips this summer! The cabin was equipped with everything you'll need. It was a perfect fit!

Leslie was responsive to our questions and needs. People will like the lake-themed decor. It’s next door to Ernie’s which I was worried would be loud but it was fine and super handy when you needed a bite or drink. The only thing I would have wanted was more privacy between the other unit and us and more space overall inside.

Everything was easy about renting this property. Our first morning we woke to two eagles sitting on edge by the water. Layout of rental allows a great view and sunshine to pour in. The green area before the water allows enough space to enjoy a bag toss game. The deck provides a perfect place to take it all in. We enjoyed having Ernies right next door. Leslie was super responsive and provided excellent service in making sure our stay was perfect.

Perfect in every way!
We are already excited to go back! My husband and I brought our 1-year old for a weekend getaway and the house provided the perfect layout. It was so cozy, clean and comfortable. If I were to build my own lake house tomorrow (it's good to dream) it would look very similar to this place. Leslie was also incredible. So responsive and very kind!

Labor day 2019 - family we had an awesome time
The accommodations were perfect for our family of five. The property had everything we needed. We did rent some dvd at redbox. The weather was cool no need for air or heat. Wish the beach had a little more sand the water was pretty cool for swimming or paddle boarding. Ernies next door provided nightly music but ended around 10:00. Pizza at nisswa rafferty was yummy. Thanks we enjoyed our time at gull lake.
