About this property

Eagle Pines: Rare, Beautiful North Shore of Gull Lake

Beautiful 4 bedroom log cabin on the North shore of Gull Lake near Grand View Lodge in Nisswa. One of two cabins sharing 100 ft of sandy beach. The cabin is a short walk from the beach with beach access including Adirondack chairs and a firepit. Quiet getaway. Minutes from championship golf, bike trails, casual and fine dining, the "Shops of Nisswa," and the famous Chocolate Ox, the area's best ice cream and candy store. Lots of other amenities. Perfect for families, children welcome. Pets welcome for additional fee. Boat lift available for an extra fee of $75 per stay. We have two boatlifts. One holds 3,000 lbs. and the one holds 5,000 lbs. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate pontoons. Preference given to a minimum stay of 7 days in the summer.
Enjoy your getaway!

We had a great time renting this cabin. Our group consisted of 1 adult and 4 kids ages 16-18. The cabin was clean and well stocked. We enjoyed walking around the Grandview property nearby and spending time on the beach.

Great location and access to a good private beach (and 7 minute walk to GrandView Lodge and all of its amenities). The house for 6 adults and 3 young kids accommodated us all very well.Would have appreciated a return text I had about recycling--never heard back from the contact person.

Thank you very much for reviewing the property, Bob, and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. I am very sorry for not responding to your question about recycling! Nisswa closed their recycling center in 2024, but I will do more research and add a comment in the property description with my findings.

We needed a space to gather as a family in preparation for a local funeral and this was the perfect place. The property was exactly as advertised and expected. The location is ideal as it offers a peaceful setting yet close to anything you might need including a full service grocery store. We would highly recommend!

Amazing place for a family get together

We choose this cabin to celebrate Christmas with our family and two dogs. It was so cozy and welcoming, and with 4 bedrooms and bathrooms it was still spacious if anyone needed quiet time. The location was amazing too, right next to the lake so we could go ice fishing, and very close to fun Nisswa locations! Highly recommend, and I hope we are able to visit again!

We enjoyed our stay at this tucked away cabin! It's charming, clean and spacious. I would highly recommend!It's set back behind another home (not directly on the beach), but it shares a short path to the water. The beach was quiet in mid-July and the kids enjoyed swimming. The water is pretty shallow all the way out to the dock, so it's a nice beach for young kids.

Family Vacation at Gull Lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long family vacation staying in this awesome cabin. We enjoyed our time on the beach and boating on Gull Lake. The accommodations were superb. The kitchen was spacious and well appointed. The 4-season porch next to kitchen and the deck were fun places to hang out. Communication with the owner was great as well. We would happily book this place again.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Nordlund

Host profile image

Eagle Pines is managed by three sisters. We grew up spending our summers "up north," enjoying all that the area has to offer. It has been a wonderful place to build memories and connecting with family and friends. The area is wonderful for boating, fishing, golfing, exploring the shops and restaurants, biking and so much more. We know how much this area meant to us growing up and we wanted to provide a like experience for others. Our parents were avid golfers and we all spend a lot of time golfing The Pines. Our mother enjoyed looking for eagles and watching the loons on the lake. She would be thrilled to see the eagle's nest that is now in one of our trees. We hope you enjoy all of what the Brainerd area has to offer.
