About this house rental
*July- mid August of 2024 are weekly rentals only (Friday to Friday).
*June 27th - August 31st of 2025 are weekly rentals only (Friday to Friday).
Welcome to our newly remodeled Happy House in Crosslake, MN!
The Rustic Farm House with a Touch of Modern Industrial Charm is located in the Happy Bay of Cross Lake on Whitefish Chain. It has been stripped down to its original bones to bring its unique features and great character back to life! Due to the nature of original rustic floors, slippers might be recommended :)
This family oriented house offers 3 bedrooms and a loft, 3.5 baths, living room, dining room and a full kitchen with everything you need to prepare your own meals.
If cooking is not on the agenda, you are just 2 minutes away from the center of Crosslake with its restaurants, bars, coffee and ice cream shops, grocery store and a gas station, and also a variety of local boutiques, walking/biking/snowmobile trails, golfing and mini-golfing - all for your entertainment.
Being so close to town, the property is also located next to a wooded land, which gives more privacy to enjoy beautiful sunsets and some family time by the fire pit or on the porch with a beverage of your choice!
We hope to see you soon!

Great place for our family. First of all it is on Crosslake, which I think is one of the greatest recreation areas in the country. The house easily accommodated a family of six adults and four children. The kids loved the house.The bunk room (six bunks) was perfect for my four grandchildren. The two double beds bedrooms in the the loft area were great for the parents. The downstairs king bed ensuite was perfect for the grand parents.The dock was great for our rented pontoon boat. My family had a fantastic time.

This was what we hope to be many stays at The Happy House. We have gone to the Crosslake area many times, but we brought my brother, his family and kids, and my parents this time as well. We are all already talking about another stay. The house was PERFECT from the beautiful lawn where the kids could play, the fire pit for bonfires and smores, the small beach area for sand play, docks great for us bringing our boat and fishing for the kids, great paddleboarding and kayaking for us novices, a beautiful porch for shade, great kitchen with seating for all of us, plenty of fluffy towels for the whole group to shower, plenty of bathrooms and the list goes on... Then there were our wonderful hosts who were so responsive and helpful. I've never EVER had a better renting experience!

We have stayed in many lake front properties over the years and this is by far the best lake front we have ever stayed at. The most beautiful home situated on tremendous lake front bay. I can’t say enough how beautiful that this place is and the hosts were the best and very accommodating. On a scale of one to ten this is an eleven!!!! We certainly will be back.

I have stayed at over 20 other rentals in the area and this is my favorite. Not only is it beautifully renovated, close to water & town, comfortable & clean, but it's exceptionally stocked with items that I usually have to bring myself. Hand soap, lotion, shampoo, towels, serving dishes, enough glassware, pots & pans for cooking for a crowd, and even sharp knives! We all loved the very comfortable beds & linens as well. Highly recommend!

This is our favorite spot to stay in Crosslake! The property is exceptional and the owners are wonderful and so attentive to any need or concern. This was our second January stay for a winter get together with friends and we look forward to returning again next year.

Our family had the best time staying at the happy house. The kids adored fishing off the dock and we loved the covered deck and paddleboards and kayaks. The owners are very intentional in keeping the accommodation looking new and clean and are very prompt in their communication. We hope to be back!!

We just got back from our fabulous weekend on Cross Lake. Polina’s cabin is so beautiful and spacious. She had everything there we needed for an amazing time. The yard was perfect for yard games and the covered deck was so relaxing.

Very impressed
Whoever did the renovation of this property really nailed it. Old barnwood motif inside and out with some great repurposed eliments throughout. Comfort was not sacrificed at all and the home's layout is efficient and a reward to the lake location. We enjoyed the patio, the great room and everything accommodated our crew of 12. Excellent communication with the owners helped and we''ll recommend for future stays.

Beautiful, great location, and well stocked
The house is prettier than then the pictures. So much room! The property is in a great centralized location for the area as well - close to restaurants, shops, bars. The beds are very comfortable. Even a few of the pregnant stayers complimented the comfiness of the twin beds. There is also everything you could ever need in the kitchen. So very helpful. We rented a pontoon for a day and used the dock at the property. It’s doable, but take caution as it is pretty shallow in this nook. The owners are very protective of their place, as it is so nice, so be prepared to be on your best behavior here.

Very nice stay
Hosts clearly take pride in their property. We had a lovely one despite the water level of the lake being quite low which make boating a challenge. Beds are comfortable and kitchen well stocked.
This is is one of the better cabins we have rented in the area.

Wonderful!
The home is beautiful, the lakefront is wonderful, and Polina and Bryan were amazing. Well worth the money and definitely want to come back. The lakefront has it’s own beach area, perfect for swimming. Heard the loons and had the most amazing relaxing weekend, just the two of us. Would 1000% come back with my kids. We rented bikes and went for a bike ride in town and that was super fun. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here. Lovely home for sure. I’ll cherish this weekend memory forever. Thank you Polina for sharing this home with us ☺️ (If you ever want to sell it, let me know 😉)

Stunning Home
This home was simply beautiful. It was clean, inviting and perfectly decorated. The back patio is perfect for sharing stories with your friends and family. Everyone in the area is so kind and welcoming. The close proximity to the American Legion offers a great opportunity to attend a meat raffle or bar bingo. We were able to listen to loons every morning and every night. This house is one-of-kind. Polina was incredibly responsive and had everything well documented to cover the basics. You will not be disappointed if you rent this home.

Beautiful house on the lake
We stayed in this beautiful house as a group with 6 adults and 5 kids for the weekend getaway. Every room was spacious with lovely furnishings. The owners had put a lot of thought in making this a very cozy house. Kids absolutely loved the bunk beds. The bunk bed room had a lot of space for the kids to spread out and play as well! There were books and board games for the kids to explore. The second floor bedrooms had beautiful view of the lake. There were fresh linens and towels for more than our big group. The main floor looked out to lake and the walkout covered patio was lovely to sit and enjoy the lake views. The kids enjoyed dinner on the picnic table on the patio and s’more time in the evening by the fire pit. The house entry is nicely secluded from the road and we felt there was nice privacy during our stay. The kitchen and pantry had lot of utensils, cookware and dinnerware for big groups. The owners were very quick and responsive to our questions and made every effort to make our stay an enjoyable experience. We wished we had stayed longer! We would definitely go back again and highly recommend to everyone.
