Sunset Retreat Lake Home - Pedal Boat, Canoe & Kayak Included

Welcome to Sunset Retreat! The updated four season cabin offers the best sunset views on Big Lake, plus plenty of water toys for you to enjoy!

A charming two bedroom, one bath home with a large dining table for 8, beautiful white oak floors throughout, a wood-burning fireplace and new custom cabinetry. Swing from the hanging egg chair in the dining room and enjoy the spectacular west-facing view. Then step outside to the spacious patio furnished with a bar, dining table, Traeger pellet grill and a Hot Shot stove for a small fire.

During winter months enjoy cross-country skiing, sledding and ice fishing at the lake. Big Lake is also a snow-mobile destination, with access to over 230 miles of groomed trails.

During warmer months, walk down to the dock to enjoy swimming, fishing, a ride in the pedal boat, canoe, or kayak (included with your rental), or to simply relax and take it all in. You are welcome to bring a boat and tie it up on the dock.

The home features two bedrooms: One with a King Sleep Number bed and desk/dressing table, the second with a full-sized bed with memory foam mattress under a twin bunk bed (with stairs). There is a full-sized futon in the common area.

The kitchen is equipped with updated appliances, a Keurig, air fryer/toaster oven, new pots and pans, and standard tools/cooking utensils. There is also a full-sized bath, and a washer and dryer.

The house is cooled with a newly updated air conditioning unit. Ceiling fans circulate the air in the living room and two bedrooms, plus two additional fans are provided to move cool air into the bedrooms at night.

We all love a good time; however, this is a residential area and we ask renters to be respectful to the neighboring houses which are close by. Outdoor quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. in alignment with the City of Big Lake Noise Ordinance.

Smoking on the property is strictly prohibited.
