Vacation rentals with a kayak in Deer Lake

We enjoyed our stay at the Ladyslipper! The house is well stocked with linens and anything you may need in the kitchen. The location was very convenient for walking or driving to town. I highly recommend booking this home!

Roger is a very nice and accommodating person! He was responsive and very helpful from the beginning. The house was clean and was in an excellent location for our needs. The view from his deck is on the lake and dock, and the furniture is nice. The large TV, dishwasher, laundry room etc. were all amenities that we were not expecting for the price. A very nice, comfortable setting!

My family and I had such an incredible stay at Jennifer’s lake house. It was the perfect combination of spacious, cozy, and private for us to spend our Christmas week there. The location and wintry weather had us feeling like we were in a snow globe. The house was even decorated for the season, and had more than enough room for the group we had. Makes me excited for the summer months, as I would absolutely book here again!

Beautiful home with a beautiful view. We had a great time fishing, eating at various places and traveling the North Shore.

Wonderful stay! The house was just as described and we loved being able to use the kayaks and fire pit. The sunset views here are amazing and the kitchen has everything we needed for cooking. Would definitely stay again!

Absolutely loved our stay at Dream Island! The finished garage was awesome and the heated floors in lower level bathroom were amazing with the cold weather during our stay. The layout of the house was unique and provided nice-sized common areas complimented with good separation of very spacious bedrooms for privacy. There were a few minor things that didn't work or were damaged but they didn't impact the quality of our stay whatsoever. Other than those few minor items (which the owner/broken said were planned to be fixed), everything was clean and well taken care of.

This is the perfect get away. everything was perfect! plenty of space inside and the outdoor space is amazing! Cory communicated quickly and completely. we highly recommend!

The listing was very accurate. The view was wonderful! The furniture was comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and layout was functional. They provided lots of towels and toilet paper. The half bath made it nice with 7 guests. The only suggestion was maybe a memory foam topper for the master bed as it was a little too firm for my liking. We got to use the kayaks and boat which was very appreciated. I only wish we remembered our fishing poles. The sauna got hot. They even provided the wood! You may be able to find a cheaper place but this one included a lot of extras. We hope to go back again next year.

Beautiful lake and beach! The cabin was very clean, we had use of their kayaks and also a child size kayak that my 4 year old grandson tried out! They also had a canoe, fire pit, chairs and lounge chairs. They even had the fire pit all set up for a fire for us and pulled out a child size chair when they heard we had a 4 year old with us! Sue and Brian were super nice and very welcoming. The cabin deck is attached to their house deck but they have a privacy gate you can pull out if interested but we never felt we needed it. We loved their place so much and we are hoping to come stay again next year!

Great place on the lake! There was plenty of space for our family and we particularly enjoyed sitting outside on the patio and floating in the lake during the day. We rented a pontoon one afternoon, which I highly recommend! We played pickleball a few times at the YMCA and brought up our bikes to enjoy the Mesabi bike trail. There is so much to do in the area! Bring bug spray if you plan to be outside at dusk. The house was clean and well-equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We thought we’d use the sauna but honestly it looks more appealing in photos than in real life. We appreciated the bottle of wine and s’mores kit left by the host. Note, there is a small chore list to take care of when you leave. Can’t wait to visit Grand Rapids again!

I love the small town experience and sitting by the river was so peaceful. This cabin is perfect for a family to come enjoy nature and privacy on your vacation. I will book this cabin again.

Quaint and peaceful cottage on the water. Not a lot of frills but just the space to get away. It was affordable compared to other places in the area and since I did have to work, it was nice to have reliable WiFi!

Beautiful home with an ideal location, on the lake & close to town! Very responsive & helpful with my questions prior to and even after the visit. Highly recommend!!

The cabin was easy to find and has the most amazing views! We came at the end of the season for a family reunion but I’m sure during the summer this place is even more stunning!! Since it was off season we got to bring our dogs and they loved the area and all the fun smells. The main road outside of the resort was great for walks! The cabin was clean, had a great internet connection, and being so close to the water was awesome. My husband was able to catch some small fish right off the dock outside our cabin, which was fun! If given the opportunity we would stay again!

We had a wonderful weekend at this beautiful cabin! Would highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a great weekend on the lake! It has everything needed to feel right at home. It is so peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our stay at Emily‘s place, communication with Emily was very good. Check in information was customized for us, clear and concise. Beautifully clear lake access. The accommodations were large enough to house five siblings and their spouses. It’s just what we were looking for at a reasonable price. I would not hesitate to book with Emily at this lake home again.

We had such a lovely stay at this cute, cozy cottage! It was the perfect little escape—charming, clean, and thoughtfully decorated, with all the comforts of home. Jill was incredibly kind and accommodating, even offering us the option to check in early and graciously allowing us a later check-out, which made our trip even more relaxing. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again!

Gorgeous place in a gorgeous setting and the host is the best in the business.

We had a wonderful stay at Michael's lakeside retreat. The photos represented it well and we were especially pleased with the detailed directions for the route off the highway. The fireplace was a treat. Our only struggle was remembering which switches controlled which lights… even though many of them were labeled, we still had to guess/remember several times. The heaters in each room were effective and the kitchen was well-stocked. We certainly recommend Michael's North Bay Getaway.

Such a cute little space! It had everything we needed while staying. Pam and Rob did a great job of turning an old boathouse into a unique and fun space to stay. We would definitely stay again if we return to the Cross Lake area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Scott & Susie's place! Very homey and lots of room! Felt very private with lots of sleeping space. Not too far for our ski trip to Spirit MT. Our grandson loved the game room! A well stocked kitchen and really nice to have a cozy warm fire place! Would stay here again!

Our family had a great short stay here. We had four kids and six adults, and everyone had a great time. The home, furnishings, and beds were all very comfortable. There was lots of space and we especially loved the deck, dock, fire pit, and beach. Our kids spent a ton of time in the kayaks, swimming, and fishing - caught tons of bass, sunnies, and crappie. Very grateful to have had the honor of staying in this third generation home to make our own family memories.

Loved our stay at Michelle’s! Just as advertised, spacious, clean, well equipped and a great location. 5 min from the cute town of Crosslake and on the water… what else could you want

Wonderful house on a beautiful lake. Loved it!!!! Everything in house worked as it should. It was very pleasant with huge sliding glass doors onto deck overlooking lake. Think it's the nicest airbnb I've stayed in.
