Pet-Friendly Garrison Cabin

Charming with a view! Come and stay in this updated home on Lake Mille Lacs. This space is unique and features a main house and guest house, each with a stocked kitchen and accommodates up to 10 people total. This property sits on multiple acres with plenty of space for outside activities. There is 250 feet of lake shore. The public boat landing is just a 2-minute drive up the road. Check out all there is to do in the little town of Garrison and surrounding areas near Lake Mille Lacs!

In addition to the home, there is 100 feet of lake shore located directly across the street (separated by HWY 169) for guests to enjoy. This beach is private to our guests and not public, however as a reminder, it is shared with our neighboring vacation rental that shares the driveway. **PLEASE ADVISE: HWY 169 is a busy road. We strongly encourage guests to take this into consideration, especially if you have children or pets joining you for your stay.**

Porch: There is a spacious porch located on the front of the home with a view of the lake.

Main house: Renovated and open concept layout, kitchen with utensils, dinnerware, pots/pans and other kitchen basics. Refrigerator/freezer, dining room table, living room with seating and TV w/Roku. Two bedrooms each equipped with a queen bed, dressers and a closet. The living room has a pull-out couch. On-site laundry and bathroom with a tub/shower.

Guest house: This space was given extra love to make it unique. Kitchen with utensils, dinnerware, pots/pans and other kitchen basics included. Refrigerator/freezer, living room with seating and TV w/Roku. Two bedrooms with a queen bed in each. Bathroom with a tub/shower.

Guest will have access to both the main house and guest house to use during their stay in addition to the large yard space (about 4.5 acres) and extra driveway.

Owners are not on site, but guests can contact us directly via AirBnB or phone. We will respond in a timely matter and work with guests to address any need before, during or after your stay.

Lakefront property with large yard and beach/dock to enjoy located right across the street. Right up the road is the public boat launch/lake access. This home is minutes away from the town of Garrison with several eating options, a gas station, ice cream shop and more. Grand Casino Mille Lacs is a short 7 miles away. Guests also enjoy the local state parks and other recreational activities.

There is plenty of space to park trucks, boats, and all the toys. FYI, Uber/Lyft is not often available; be prepared with alternate routes of transportation.

The driveway is shared with the property next door. Guests may park anywhere along driveway or yard, but we ask that you keep vehicles on one-side (closest to the home).

Summer: Enjoy the beach front right across the street, but please be careful when crossing the busy road. Boats, jet skis, kayaks and canoes are not provided, but feel free to bring your own as there is a public access point right up the road. Don`t have your own watercraft? Check out the various rental companies nearby!
**In Northern Minnesota, Mayflies are known to appear near lakes approximately 1-2 times a year. Unfortunately, we can`t predict when this may happen.

Fall: The lakefront will be available as long as weather permits. ATV`s, bikes and more; Bring your outdoor gear and checkout the nearby trails and surrounding areas. Looking for another outdoor activity? Bring your hiking boots to explore the state parks nearby.
**Most of the Minnesota bugs are no longer around, however you may want to check for ticks if you are in grassy or wooded areas.**

Winter: Lake Mille Lacs is a fantastic place for ice fishing! Bring your own gear or rent supplies nearby. Enjoy the winter but not into fishing? Bring your snowmobiles, snowshoes or other snow gear! This property and surrounding area offer plenty of options for all kinds of activities.
**Bring warm clothes, the weather can get cold rather quickly!**

Yes, it was very family friendly and pet friendly. Would've have liked more blankets, a shovel and ice melt. But everything else was great. Did find some food (grapes) under the table, but otherwise clean and ready to use.

Amazing View

The cabins are absolutely wonderful. We picked the area so we could have the alone time. Everything you need is just 30 min away if you need to restock. Its clean and quiet. It was ladybug season but didnt bother us at all. Good beds and plenty of room to gather. We will stay again.

Mid winter getaway

My friends and I really enjoyed our time here! It was clean when we arrived and super comfortable. There is plenty of room for sleeping and hanging out. Both the main house and guest house have a full kitchen, two bedrooms, and a living room. There was great communication from the owner. We would love to go back someday! I feel good recommending this property.

Great VRBO

We had a very nice stay. The houses were well kept and updated. The owners communicated exceptionally with us about any questions we had prior to our stay. I am a first time VRBO user and found the process went very well. The kids enjoyed having the cornhole game to use so that was a great surprise Lots of room to play outside Hwy 169 was very busy and hard to get across to the lake but we did not go swimming anyway. Not sure how deep that area is? Would recommend this VRBO!

We had a great stay!

We came here with our late teen children and a friend for a getaway before school starts. This was a great place! My husband and I stayed in the cottage and they stayed in the main cabin. There was plenty of space and it was very clean. I loved the front porch too with the lake view and screens to open. We played cornhole and made a bonfire in the backyard with plenty of space for our dog to run around. We would love to come back again, possibly in the winter for a different experience!

It was ok

Overall it was ok. Outside was very dirty on the doors and windows - main house was very clean and beautiful- enough room for our girls weekend, guest house had AC issues, and power tripping issues, smelt very musty - the stairs going into the houses unsteady for the elderly. Nice they had games for outside and camping chairs

Very nice house(s) - great place to stay

My wife, dog, and I had a wonderful time here. The inside is spotless, and extremely new. We didn't need the second house, but it looks quite nice as well. Everything is well coordinated and decorated and it had everything we needed. Super easy to check in and check out. We spent some time at the casino, and taking walks with the dog. The only thing to watch out for (and this is mentioned in the description ) are the bugs. The mayflies, mosquitoes and ticks can be a lot if you're not prepared for them. Not a problem with the house or property though - it's just the time of year. We really enjoyed our stay.
