Two Weeks at Ox Lake
Loved the lake home! Great 1920's "cottage," decor, and landscaping. Comfortable beds. GORGEOUS kitchen! Lots of room for everyone. The sunroom was our gathering place for meals and cards and other games. The furniture outside offered us an opportunity to watch the sun rise over the lake while enjoying our morning coffee. We had six seniors in our group, so it would have been nice to know that there are 78 steps from the door of the house down to the dock. Although, it did get easier to navigate as the week went on. Also, the toilets are so low for seniors, especially the two of us with new hip replacements, so we brought along a toilet seat extender. Interesting spiral staircase in the middle of the house. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon to a house that had not been cleaned, but we put our "gloves" on, and my niece cleaned both bathrooms and I washed and dried 4 loads of sheets and towels. I think the house needs a good "spring/fall" cleaning, and the housekeeper should be reminded to dust all surfaces. We had a great show by three pileated woodpeckers who were working on a log in the wood pile: my grandnephew said it was such a thrill. It was a lovely two weeks. I have been coming down from Alaska to do these trips with family for the past 15 years and this truly was my favorite "lake home" of all. I feel that there is some interesting history in this home and location. Would love to sit with the owner sometime and hear what stories this house has to tell. Thank You

Ox Lake Vacation
We enjoyed a great week on Ox Lake. We were able to use all of the water toys provided including the fishing boat, kayaks and paddle boards. The inside fun included the pool table and late night poker with the son-in-laws on the poker table. The house was very comfortable for our family of 9 including a 1 year old toddler. Kent the owner was very helpful and responsive.

Great week at lake
Our family group of 8 had a great stay at Ox Lake. Had everything we needed to have fun at the lake for a week. Loved the kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. Would definitely recommend to other families looking for the full Minnesota lake experience.

Why they chose this property

I started coming up to the Crosslake area in the early 1960's when I attended a summer camp on Trout Lake and have been visiting ever since. I purchased the home on Ox Lake in 2002 because of the setting of the property and its access to the two lake areas.

What makes this property unique

The most enjoyable benefit has to be the view of the island. The beautiful tree's and the quite location are hard to beat. Ox Lake is a very clear lake and with no public access and its not to busy and the fishing is great. Having access to the Whitefish chain offers many additional boating possibilities and access to Restaurants from the water.
