Good to know

Year round fun for all ages at this awesome lakefront property just 18 miles east of Brainerd with easy access to Cuyuna Trail! Relax at a 2,100+ SF home that features a private dock with a hard sandy bottom shore, non-motorized water toys and licensed to sleep up to 13 guests! Guests will have access to one garage where outside games and toys will be stored, but there's plenty of parking for multiple vehicles. OUTSIDE SPACE: Enjoy amazing sunsets at Serpent Lake from the dock, fire pit or back deck at this Deerwood retreat — or splurge to rent a pontoon and enjoy serene views from the water. Guests will have access to a 4-person paddleboat, one kayak and one paddle board. The brand new maintenance-free deck has tons of seating options with six Polywood Adirondack chairs, 6 high back chairs, 9 sling chairs to put around a large table, two lounger chairs and a mini picnic table for kids. There's plenty more seating options in the walk-out patio below the deck with a bar table and another sitting area. Grill up a feast for your group on the large Weber gas grill! SERPENT LAKE: 100 feet of west-facing lake frontage with a large dock that's set up for pontoon storage (not provided, rental options nearby). There are two public access points for boats — one just north of Deerwood on Voyageur Highway and the other being opposite this home in Crosby. The lake itself is 1,103 acres with average water clarity of 20 feet, which the state classifies as "very good." The deepest part is 65', but 32% of the lake is 15 feet or less. It's a popular recreational lake with good fishing — walleye, pike, bass and crappies. MAIN FLOOR: Open sight lines from front to back with tons of seating options! The main level of this rambler features a kitchen, dining and living room that are all connected so groups can enjoy separate spaces while still being connected for conversation. All three spaces enjoy views of the lake through a huge picture window. The fully-stocked kitchen features stainless steel appliances with a breakfast bar and seating for four. A Keurig Duo machine (individual cups and traditional coffee pot) with some K-cup options will be provided. The 65-inch smart TV is mounted above the fireplace for use with your personal streaming accounts. There are two exit doors off the main living area to access the 600+ SF deck that overlooks Serpent Lake. BASEMENT: The basement features two more bedrooms and a second bathroom. There’s also a second living room with a 70" TV and a full bar with six stools. The walkout basement has access to the back patio and yard — great for coming inside after swimming in the lake! SLEEPING OPTIONS Main Floor: Queen bedroom and queen bedroom Basement: Queen bedroom and queen bedroom Flexible: 3 inflatable queen mattresses, rollaway bed, couches BATHROOMS Main floor: Full bathroom with a whirlpool tub Basement: Walk-in shower TV DETAILS The house has six smart TVs, but guests will need to use their PERSONAL streaming accounts.

Beautiful lake house with all the amenities you could hope for. The views are spectacular! Spacious rooms and fully rocked kitchen. The dining table was large enough to accommodate all of us. We also used the paddle board and kayak!

Excellent week long stay for 5 adults and 4 children. My son and DIL, 4 grandchildren, daughter, my wife and I. we brought the family boat and parked it on the dock for the week. We ate nearly all of our meals in and ate both inside and out. Wonderful place for our family. The lake has very clear water. Wear your swim shoes with rocky beach, great swimming. We had a floating swim platform we brought. We used the Kayak, paddleboard, and Peddleboat. Excellent space for us with 4 bedrooms, with a cot we brought in one and and air mattress we brought also. There is a rollaway we did not use. Big Livingroom and we all sat at the dinning table 9 with folding chairs provided. Excellent week.

Beautiful lake home for our family vacation with adult kids and grandchildren. Full kitchen with most things we needed. We liked the large deck & many outside reads to gather. Garage toys were perfect for our grandkids. 2 full bathrooms with one jetted tub only for kids baths. Dock has a side to park your own boat but no bumpers there so bring several of your own if bringing a boat. Nice shallow swimming area for kids at lake edge. Very responsive property manager. We would definitely stay here again!

Very nice place in Deerwood. It's near the downtown of Deerwood which has just a few basic things, but across the lake just a few minutes away is Crosby and the Cuyuna trails and that's a neat area. The house was just as described and Brett was very proactive and responsive as a host.

This was amazing!! Highly recommend. Lots of space in the cabin for groups or families, and a ton of yard space for outdoor activities/games. Host was very friendly and responsive and everything was simple and smooth. There is a ton of stuff to do in the area during all times of the year and regardless of weather! Perfect location.

We did a whole family vacation up north and Brett’s home was perfect for all of to stay. My family of 10 fit very comfortably, the home is beautiful! Matched the pictures perfectly. We had a huge bonus, a lot of the decor had bears on it and our 1.5 year old is currently obsessed with all things bear. It was so cool seeing him run up and check them out everyday. The house also had two Coop Cars for kids and our guy was so excited to wake up and go ride in those on the amazing deck everyday.
