About the host

Hosted by Kate

Host profile image
My husband and I are both life long residents of the Brainerd Lakes Area. I am a chef, chocolatier, and coffee enthusiest learning to roast! This crosses over into hosting on VRBO and and I looking forward to sharing our culinary gardens and campfire cooking with guests in Nisswa. I love to garden and plan how to infuse local foods into my work, and cuttings from the yard into fresh bouquets.

Why they chose this property

This neighboorhood chose us! We love Nisswa and the house here because of the adjacent gravel pit we actively work in. The larger acerage, now split and developed, was purchased by my husband's Grandfather and continues to be part of our family. We love biking to Nisswa, splashing at Pelican Beach, catching friends at Zorbaz and campfire cooking.

What makes this property unique

Although not on a lake, in the summer we can sometimes hear the jet skis, loons, wake boat music and festivities of Gull Lake - we are really so close. We love being near all the action, just minutes away to hop on a friend's boat or watch a parade uptown. Biking and golf carting to Nisswa is really the best way to pop into town and avoid traffic. The privacy of being in the yard and not stacked on lake neighbors is very relaxing.
