About this property
Lakefront Retreat on Long Lake – Perfect for Wildlife, Weddings & Getaways
Escape to my cozy lakefront retreat just an hour north of the Twin Cities, nestled on the northwest shore of Long Lake—a 390-acre DNR-stocked lake in rural Minnesota. Ideal for family retreats, romantic weekends, proposals, weddings, or peaceful work getaways, this charming space offers comfort, nature, and a touch of adventure.
The Space
Your private 1,200 sq. ft. lake-level suite has its own entrance and includes: • 1 bedroom with a queen bed and TV • Full bathroom with a relaxing jetted tub • Spacious family room with oversized furniture, a 55” satellite TV, and a see-through fireplace • Cozy sitting room for reading or conversation
While there’s no full kitchen, you’ll have everything you need for convenience — microwave, Keurig, mini-fridge, snacks, and outdoor BBQ — just like a high-end hotel suite.

The Setting
I’m just four houses down from Sunrise on England Shores Grill, Bar & Resort, where you’ll find food, live entertainment, and wedding events. The property offers beautiful lake views, flower gardens, a gazebo, fire pit, BBQ area, WiFi, cable TV, PlayStation, and a DVD collection.
Optional Experiences
Enhance your stay with on-the-water fun: - Pontoon excursions on my 2018 24-ft, 115HP pontoon - $75/hour - $250/half-day (4 hrs) - $400/full-day (8 hrs) Includes cooler with ice & water (add $40/hr for tubing & gas)
- Kayak rentals – $50/day each
I can also arrange meals, entertainment, transportation, and custom activities for an additional fee.
Additional Details
I live upstairs and love hosting guests — always happy to help make your stay special. Please let me know ahead of time if you plan to bring a pet. (I have friendly outdoor cats.)
Whether you’re here to relax or explore, you’ll love this spot for fishing, boating, wildlife watching, snowmobiling, or simply enjoying Minnesota’s natural beauty.
