There are multiple places (Dave's Sportland, Boats & Beyond) nearby to rent a boat or pontoon (they will deliver) and you can tie to our dock. The public boat landing is a mile away if you bring your own boat. Paul Bunyan biking and snowmobiling trail is minutes away, and downtown Nisswa with popular restaurants is just 10 minute drive. Very close to Nisswa water park. Mini golf and other fun things to do all within 10-15 minutes.
For kids we have two pack n plays with sheets, booster seat for dining table, high chair, baby monitor, cordless room darkening shades (blackout curtains in master bedroom), kids eating utensils, toys, magazines, ping pong, large chalkboard in breezeway, board games, puzzles, dollhouse and many yard games. Sorry, pets not allowed.
*Note: the motorboat and boat lift on dock are NOT included in the rental. The guests can bring their own boat or rental boat and use dock to tie up or beach the boat. Paddle boat IS included.
Also, we cannot guarantee that the dock will be in after October 1st due to weather and maintenance schedules. In the spring the dock will typically go in the water mid May (around fishing opener). We do not ever guarantee a dock will be in before June due to MN weather- please contact us with dock questions*
