The lake home is HUGE and wide open. Great for large groups (guys golf trips, family reunions, work trips, etc). Place is clean and has higher end finishes. The pontoon is big and well worth the rental. Beautiful views of the sunset either on the deck or pontoon. Highly recommend!!!

Hard to find a better place to stay with a big group! The pictures don’t do it justice - there was way more room in common areas (kitchen, living room, basement) than we expected and all bedrooms were spacious. Couches everywhere too. Jeff was an awesome host too! He responded promptly to any questions we had leading up to our stay and while we were there. He even stocked fridges with water near bedrooms - which was clutch after hours playing volleyball and hanging out on the lake.Highly recommend both Jeff and this property.

We always feel we do a lot of research and have very high expectations and this house exceeded all and more! As you come down the driveway and this place appears starts your family’s excitement off right!!! The hosts make you feel comfortable from the start with all of the well thought out details like well stocked coffee bar, all you need from home kitchen tools and fully stocked water bottles in the multiple beverage fridges throughout the home. We were fortunate to have amazing weather to get out on the lake and play volleyball on their sand court but also found the shuffleboard and arcade games in the basement come in handy in the morning and night when we weren’t outside. Thank you hosts for making our family gathering a great success!!! Cheers

An Unforgettable Memorial Day at the Lake House

We recently spent Memorial Day weekend at a fantastic lake house with our extended family, and it was perfect! There were plenty of rooms for all the adults, plus a bonus room packed with beds and bunk beds that the kids absolutely loved. The huge kitchen with its beautiful island was ideal for gathering and chatting, and a cozy spot with a wood-burning stove off the kitchen offered another great conversation area. We enjoyed meals around the large dining table, and the spacious living room with a big TV was perfect for relaxing.Downstairs was a hub of fun, with endless shuffleboard competitions and exciting ping-pong battles. Just outside the basement, a large seating area and fire pit (with tons of wood!) were perfect for evening gatherings. We rented the largest pontoon boat imaginable, perfect for cruising and fishing—we even caught some northern pike! The kids had a blast tubing, and they loved being able to hop into the sauna to warm up afterward. The only downside? The house was so big I didn't even see all the rooms until the last day! We can't wait to go back. I'd love to do a friends trip here too with shops and restaurants not far away.

This is a great place to stay for a large group. Plenty of beds, common spaces, couches. Great yard with lake access. Jeff was incredibly accommodating and promptly responded to any messages we sent. The only concern is that the property is near a campground with quiet hours starting after 10 pm. It can make it a bit difficult to stay outside by the fire with big groups at night. Otherwise a great experience.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Steiner

Host profile image
Welcome! When my wife and 2 kids can get away from our hectic Maple Grove lifestyle we love to get away with friends and family in large groups. As we traveled MN we really wanted to find an opportunity near Nisswa. After 2 years and several disappointing locations we found that opportunity on Cullen Lake. A lot of hard work and imagination helped build a lake home that is now the main stay for our friends/family. But we also love sharing it with others! We tried to pull in all the small details from VRBOs we've rented in the past and hope you enjoy both the big and small details of Cullen Lake Lodge!

Why they chose this property

Here's our long list of what brought us to this area - amazing fishing, golf, boating, restaurants, shopping, restaurants, and of course, the Turtle Races!

What makes this property unique

Cullen Lake Lodge has a few unique features you'll enjoy:
- we have a beach, dock, and boat (for rent) of course
- wood fireplace
- backyard firepit
- professional sand volleyball court
- outside covered porch with heat lamps and TV
