About this property

Lakeside Sand Beach House on 3 Acres of fun Near Nisswa and Cross Lake.

Come be in the heart of the Brainerd Nisswa area. Everything is nearby but you won't be able to tell with the 3 acres of woods and Private Sand Beach Protected on both sides. The sunsets are Amazing with the property facing to the west. The property is all flat all the way to the beach and we are lakefront with nothing blocking the view. There is a beach house right next to the lake with full access to the paddle board, Kayak, Raft, life jackets, beach toys. Lake Edward is a 2600 acre lake which is very clean, sand bottom throughout. We just finished a Game room where you will find a Pool table, Foosball, Arcade Games,, Card Table. The fishing is very good with a variety of types of fish. We have added a separate game room which is ideal for keeping the noise down and having space when the weather is not cooperating. There is a resort on the lake where you can get gas and snacks, etc. There is a pontoon available for rent that you see in the pictures. Ice fishing options available inquire if your interested in renting the cabin and fish house. Enjoy your stay at our paradise!!

Blended family get together

We loved staying here! We had a couple of glitches. Furnace in the game room stopped working after the first night. There’s a gas fireplace that worked. And the sauna didn’t work. Mark tried to get them running to no avail. The furnace and sauna was new so probably had to work out the kinks.Still we would stay there again! The setup is so nice.Mark is really nice and accommodating!

Annual anniversary trip.

The property was very spacious, with lots of very comfortable beds. Perfect for a group or larger family getaway. Huge yard, great dock and lake access although it was cool while we were there so we didn’t partake in any lake activities. The owners have absolutely maximized the home and we could tell they have put in a lot of effort. Maybe not quite as clean as we would have liked, but it was a late season trip for us so I’m sure the house has been busy all summer. And definitely not a mess in the least. Overall a fantastic location and a comfortable home.

A Wonderful Week

Our family enjoyed staying at this property. The cabin was everything we needed for our stay. The beds were very comfortable and the layout of the cabin made it easy to have time together playing games and enjoying the week. The sand bottom on the lake made for a great place for the kids to swim and enjoy the outdoors.

Family vacation at Lakeside Sand Beach House

We had a wonderful time staying at Lakeside Sand Beach House. The owners had everything well stocked from the house to the yard to the lake. Great location being close to Nisswa and Brainerd. Beautiful view of the lake from the fire pit to watch the sunset, see the stars and listen to the loons.

Has It All

A great place for gathering of friends for a long fishing weekend. Communication was great and very accommodating host. The lay out is perfect for a diverse group - The game room is perfect for relaxing in after a day on the water/ice and allows those that want to stay up later a place without interfering with those that want to go to bed. We filled every bed in the place and everyone thought they were very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked for meal preparation and serving. The entire house was spotless and the lounge areas very comfortable. Will definitely be checking for this place again when visiting the area with a larger group.

Cozy House

This was a great place for a few families with kids to get away for a weekend! We loved playing games out in the big yard, enjoying hours and hours of a campfire with all their generous wood and curling up on their ample furniture to watch some movies!

A wonderful place to celebrate Family

We found this amazing place to have a family get together. We were there in October so we really enjoyed how large the yard was between the lake and the house. The kids explored the woods, ran and roasted marshmallows with sticks from the forest (like we did when we were kids). Turns out, we didn't need to do that as the hosts had provided metal ones for us. This was the case with everything we could have needed that weekend. The indoor space handled us so well. The beds were clean, crisp and comfortable. No one wanted to leave. Love love loved it. PS, my Dad thinks the main floor couch is the best ever. Thank you!
