Private Peninsula With 3,000 Feet Of Lakeshore In The Heart Of Lake Country!

A private, 5-bedroom home on Red Sand Lake in the heart of Baxter. Our vacation property has all of the conveniences of a medium-sized city (Cub, Target, etc. within 4 miles) but you can easily stay for days without seeing another person except when passing one by boat on the lake. Full lakeshore and wildlife views, fire pit and deck, sandy beach w/dock and pontoon included, theater room, wireless speaker system, game room and more. Both master bedrooms enjoy a beautiful lake view. Basement features a pool table, arcade game and theater room. Water toys abound with a giant swimming mat, 2 kayaks, 2 paddle boards, and more. You'll want to keep an eye out for the hawks, eagles, herons, cranes, foxes, deer and bear living on our private peninsula. Fully appointed kitchen and laundry on site, with a grilling deck and open fire cooking options as well. Newly-remodeled master bathroom features a soak tub. This is the ideal set up for large groups or families looking for a lake getaway!

Family Vacation
Rented this home for a week for our family; which was 9 adults, 1 baby and 1 dog. We had plenty of room and in the evening we used the pool table and theater room. The lake is very shallow and some what weedy. We saw lots of wildlife: deer, chipmunks, birds and snakes. Only complaint is that we didn’t get to use the pontoon; which is why we chose this rental. However the owner did tell me as we were on our way to the property that the pump broke with the last renter. She was hoping they could fix it in a day or so but it wasn’t fixed until the night before we left. Also the lily pad was all ripped so we were not able to use that either. We did use the kayaks and paddle board - that was fun! Overall good property if you like a secluded location.

Beautiful property, uncaring owners
Beautiful house situated on a private property and lake. Too bad we weren't able to explore it to it's full extent. Patios and outdoor furniture were covered in cobwebs and dead bugs upon arrival. Not a huge deal, but cleanliness outside could definitely be improved. The pontoon - a major reason for our booking the place- was unusable for the whole trip. Contacted property owner about engine problems on our first full day there. We were told they would be in touch when they could talk to their dad about it. Never heard a word back until 25 hours later when we had to reach out again looking for updates. This was already halfway through the trip for us. They told us they couldn't do anything about it. After pressing some more they finally said they would work on getting a mobile mechanic out there and they would update us. Mobile mechanic never came, no updates were ever given. Nothing but silence and neglect from the owner. We came home disappointed and without ever getting to use something that was clearly included in the rental, something we had paid for. For over $500/day, I would expect a little more courtesy and professionalism from the hosts, but I guess they stop caring after they've been paid. It's a shame that such a wonderful property has to be owned by such uncaring people who only look at it as a business opportunity. We definitely won't, and I would advise caution before renting because it seems like once you've paid your dues, you're all on your own.

Great location
Loved this home. We were a group of four couples and had more room then needed. Loved the property and beauty of lake. So peaceful. The pontoon was an added bonus for evening cruises. Several tried out the paddle boards and kayaks as well. Easy access to anything needed in town as well. Loved this property! Home was well stocked.

Beautiful Property, Relaxing Stay
We rented the home for our yearly family vacation. There were plenty of rooms and bathrooms for us all to have our own space. The home was beautiful and with every amenity you could ask for. The owners were quick to respond when we had trouble with the wifi. The included pontoon boat was a great plus since the guys love to fish. We were worried that fishing on a smaller lake wouldn't be as good as other places we had rented on larger lakes, but we were happy with the experience. They caught several pan fish even off the dock, and even caught some northerns and perch. If you are looking for a wonderful place to make family memories, this was a great place and we strongly recommend staying here.

Such a fun week
Our family loved our week at this secluded property. There were 10 adults and 8 little ones. There was something for everyone. We had beautiful weather so we spent most of our time on the pontoon or the beach area. We played lots of yard games. One thing we weren't aware of was the leeches in the lake. One of our little ones had over 30 tiny ones on her but she had been sitting in the water for a long period of time. After that we just made sure everyone playing in the lake kept moving and then they were fine. The house is very spacious and the kitchen is well stocked. The beds and pillows are super comfortable. We felt like we had our own little oasis. Everyone said they would come back to this place again.
