Peace and quiet

We enjoyed our Mom/Sister extended weekend getaway. We caught lots of fish paddling around the lake on the peddle pontoon. This was also a great location close to our favorite shops in Nisswa and Brainerd. Rick and Cindy are great hosts and have a beautifully maintained property.

A Time-Out in Lake Country, Minnesota!

3 hrs away from the hustle and bustle of the cities and their bedroom communities, we enjoyed a tranquil week at this jewel of a lake cottage! This served as our base of operations for forays to Brainerd, Baxter, Crow Wing State Park, Crosby, Garrison/Lake Mille Lacs and to Lake Itasca for a view of the headwaters of the Mississippi River. We rode bicycles on the Paul Bunyan State Trail! We sat in the rocking chairs our hosts, Rick & Cindy had so thoughtfully put on the dock! We soaked up the sun, fished/caught fish, saw otters swim by the dock, watched a hawk/osprey catch a fish from the lake, and listened to acorns fall from the oak trees and used the host's paddle pontoon for a short float on the lake. The cottage was charming, tidy and comfortable. There was a well-outfitted kitchen, a great hot shower, picture windows for picturesque views of the lake and a wood stove with wood to heat the cottage! We like woodstoves and campfire! It reminded us of some camps and cottages we've stayed at in the U.P. of Michigan, the Snowies of Wyoming, and Missouri's Ozarks! Places where you could get back in touch with Nature and back in touch with family and self! Thanks again to our hosts for sharing this oasis with us! We would like to return and bring our grandson with us next time!

Great Place

My family and I had a wonderful time. Relaxed, swam, and fished. Caught sunnies off the dock. Also caught Northern and Bass on the pontoon. The hosts were wonderful.

About the host

Hosted by Rick Taplin

Hi! We are Rick & Cindy Taplin. We have owned the property since 1996. We have recently retired and our home is next door to the guest cabin. We love it up here and hope you enjoy your time here as well! We have 2 grown children, 2 grandsons and 2 granddaughters--who we love to visit in the Twin Cities. Rick is an avid runner and I enjoy pickleball. We also enjoy gardening, fishing, spending time on the lake and bonfires with friends. Please join us!

Why they chose this property

Miller Lake is a quiet, private lake since there is no public access. The water is very clear and you can catch panfish right off the dock or from the paddleboat. At night you can fall asleep listening to the loons and owls. It's an easy drive from the Twin Cities but has an 'up north' woodsy feel.
