NEW - The Boardwalk on North Long Lake Brainerd with Hot Tub, Pet-Friendly

10/10 Excellent
"This was a great place to spend our family vacation! The kiddos loved the shallow water and the home was big enough for all of us to lounge, eat, and play games. If you like fishing I’d recommend renting a boat as it is shallow for a long ways past the dock. However this is also why it was so great for my kids! Also the host was easy to reach and helped whenever needed!"
