Welcome to Loon Call Lodge, an ideal place for a fun and peaceful “Up North” getaway! Situated on crystal clear Kimble Lake in Ideal Township, this beautiful lake home includes 4 bedrooms PLUS a seasonal bunkhouse just steps from the front door. This family-friendly cabin features an open floorplan with a beautiful stone wood-burning fireplace on the main level. A fully equipped kitchen includes updated appliances, including double ovens for feeding the whole crew. Large dining table can fit up to 12 with additional leaves and chairs. Just off the family room and kitchen, a large deck offers picturesque views of Kimble Lake where you can enjoy the fresh air and listen to the resident Loons. Enjoy a good book and cup of coffee in the seasonal 3-season sunroom nestled in the trees and surrounded by large windows. Soak in the hot tub under the sheltered deck while taking in the beautiful view of the shore.

Loon Call Lodge interior features a main-level master suite with king bed and full bathroom with double sinks- quiet and perfect for sleeping in. Wet bar with beverage fridge and ½ bathroom make the spacious family room perfect for hanging out. Upstairs is a large bedroom loft with king bed. Two more bedrooms are located in the lower level walk out and feature rustic pine beds (one queen and one twin + twin trundle). Additional ¾ bath located in the lower level walk out. Cozy entertainment zone in the lower level walkout includes gas fireplace, pool table, old-fashioned popcorn maker, and a 58” smart-TV. The lower level walk out also includes a private office and finished laundry room. The Loon Call Bunk House (open late May- early October) has space for 5 to play and rest. Extra sleeping space if needed is available with a queen air-topped hide-a-beds in the lower level walk out and in main-level family room.

Ideal Township is located in the heart of the Brainerd Lakes area. Drive just 15 minutes to Crosslake, Nisswa, or Pequot Lakes where fantastic shopping, restaurants, breweries, and entertainment await. Nearby you’ll also find Whitefish and Deacon's Lodge Golf Courses, and plenty of biking, hiking, and snowmobile trails. Largemouth bass, northern pike, crappie, walleye, and LOTS of sunfish can be caught just fishing off the dock. Kimble Lake is connected by channel to Ossawinnamakee Lake if you wish to do more exploring. Swim in the clean clear water or take one of our 2 Kayaks, 2 paddleboards, or our paddleboat out for a ride! (Lake toys will be available seasonally from May-September) Water next to the dock is shallow- max about 5 ft. depth at end of the dock. We have a 20 ft. sand beach.

Additional comforts include high speed WiFi, board games, adult and children’s books, puzzles, DVDs, and some fun kid toys. Large fire-pit near the lakeshore with Adirondack chairs and a supply of firewood.

A 2024 Viaggio 22’ pontoon is available to rent separately for a daily fee. Please inquire if interested.

NOTE: Groups > 8 considered only if they consist of a mix of children and adults (families). No Bachelor/Bachelorette parties or other large adult-only "party" groups. Kimble is a peaceful lake and we wish for it to remain that way for our neighbors. Large groups of adults are hard on the house as well, which we use as often as we can with our family. Please inquire with questions before requesting to book if you're not sure our cabin is a good fit for your group. Additional cleaning fee may be required at owner's discretion for larger groups. Guests above rental license permit, or above agreed-upon and contracted occupancy strictly prohibited and will result in loss of security payment.

DISCLOSURE: 3 outdoor security cameras are located on the property- 2 in the front and one in the back of the cabin. Cameras are armed during quiet hours, and do not zoom or invade privacy.

*PLEASE NOTE: we are only listed on VRBO, not on Craigslist or other sites!

Winter getaway

Brock and Erin were quick to respond and made the check-in/out simple and painless! We all had a fantastic time at their beautiful lake home. It was comfortable and cozy with plenty of space for 10 adults. We absolutely loved the hot tub and made great use of it. The downstair game area was a plus as we also spent a good amount of time around the pool table.

The Perfect Getaway - A True Gem!

Our experience at this VRBO property was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beautiful views and impeccable attention to detail. The home was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, offering thoughtful touches and prompt communication throughout. The location was ideal, providing a peaceful retreat directly on the water. We truly enjoyed the hot tub, pontoon boat, kayaks/SUP, BBQ, and terrific fishing directly off the dock. We can’t recommend this property enough and look forward to returning!

Great getaway

It was a wonderful, clean, peaceful getaway. Great fishing, awesome jacuzzi, fully stocked kitchen with all of the cooking supplies you'll need, excellent communication from the hosts, beautiful starry nights, big deck and tables to host a large group, and tons of space with two living areas. Close to Crosslake and Nisswa, drove into town for restaurants, bars, shopping, and groceries. The lake is quiet, not too busy, just a few families also out on their pontoons fishing and swimming. The kayaks, stand up paddle boards, and pedal boats were fantastic. The lake is very clean, caught bass, northerns, perch, and sunnies. Sad it had to end, we will definitely book again!

Perfect Getaway

Loon Call Lodge is the perfect getaway - all of the charm of a quintessential MN cabin, but with all of the modern amenities plus more. Absolutely beautiful home, beautiful views, super clean, modern appliances (dishwasher, disposal, laundry, air fryer, toaster, even a wine fridge), fully stocked kitchen with all of the tableware even for kids. Outside - the hot tub was a huge hit with the kids, the fire pit was a great spot for s’mores, and the pontoon boat was the perfect way to enjoy the lake. Kimble Lake is such a hidden gem - big enough to boat and enjoy, a fun sandbar to explore, and small enough that there isn’t much boat traffic. Will absolutely go back!!

BREATHE TAKING VRBO

Our stay at this location was truly wonderful. The house is so large and plenty of room (we didn't feel crammed at all). One of the best perks is that this house has everything you need just bring your towel for the AMAZING hottub and your personal belongings. Would recommend this house to anyone and everyone!!!! The owners were speedy to respond to our questions and so nice to work with. A breathe of fresh air - when we do this trip yearly and these property managers ROCKED IT!!!! The location is perfect, quiet, low key only down fall there was ice on the lake and snow on the ground - the joys of MN. Hands down - PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT!!!!! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Extremely Cold

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. Although it was an extremely cold weekend (only went in hot tub once because it was below zero and windy), we still had a great time playing games, cards, puzzles, enjoyed the pool table, and watching the football playoffs. The cabin had everything we needed - and plenty of room to spread out! My only wish was that there was a TV on the main floor. Whoever was busy in the kitchen could not watch the football game and we had to bring our meals downstairs to watch the games. The pictures on the site were an exact representation of the cabin. I would rent again. Thanks for everything!

Serenity

What an amazing property and lake! We have stayed at several lake homes but this one checks all the boxes! The home is roomy and it was the cleanest house we have ever stayed in. We are picky about the comfort of mattresses and usually say; "can't wait to sleep in our own bed", but not in this lake home. Very comfortable beds and most stated how comfortable the beds were. The lake is amazing! Very clean and quiet and great fishing. We took the pontoon out and our daughter caught her first northern pike. She is still smiling ear to ear. Erin provided all the proper information and was always there when needed. Was great to see my Minnesota family and spend time with them at this great home. We are planning on making this an annual event. Thanks Erin and Brock for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful Loon Call Lodge

Beautiful Home to Rent . Erin and Brock have everything you would want to have at a lake home and MORE. Paddle boards, Kayaks, Paddle boats, hot tub, and a Pontoon to rent on a very easy lift to use. The cabin is beautiful and has everything you will need to cook with. Air fryer, double oven, coffee maker, toaster, dishwasher, big refrigerator/freezer with another refrigerator by a wet bar for lots of water and drinks. All the utensils, dishes, pots and pans you need. Laundry room with soap. Beautiful TV room downstairs with a lot of variety of movies, games, and a big Pool table. Even a office to work at if you choose. Did not use the Bunk house that sleeps 5-6, but it is adorable. The A/C works great. The landscaping is beautiful around the house and the stairways are rustic and gorgeous. Ella's favorite room is the 4 season porch which is so cozy and inviting. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay. Thank you for sharing your beautiful Lake Home on Beautiful and Clear Kimble Lake. Steve and Ella

About the host

Hosted by Brock & Erin Peterson

Host profile image
Hi- we are the Peterson Family. Welcome to Loon Call Lodge, aka: our DREAM CABIN! As native Minnesotans we have always loved going "up North" to enjoy all that the Brainerd Lakes area has to offer year-round. We purchased this lake home in September 2020 after looking for a place on Kimble Lake for several years. Brock and Erin both work full time, and our kids are involved in many sports year-round, so we can't always be at the cabin as much as we would like. We feel grateful for the opportunity VRBO provides for us to share our cabin with others when we can't be there. We are certain you will fall in love with Kimble Lake!

Why they chose this property

We have made every effort to provide you all you will need for your stay to be relaxing, fun, and stress-free!

What makes this property unique

Loon Call Lodge is a wonderful place to vacation year-round.
