Step away from the hustle and bustle to the private Peterson Cottage in the heart of the Minnesota vacation country. The property sits on a beautiful 2.32 acre lot – wooded setting, yet still in a friendly neighborhood with roads for walking, running, and biking. Enjoy a cookout on the back deck from which you may view the lake. Enjoy smore's cooked at the fire pit. Relax at the Woodland terrace. Begin and end your day on the quaint screened porch – a great outdoor living space. Follow the winding path approximately 300 feet down to the lake where you will find a sandy swimming beach or may relax on the dock.
Unique Features
Our spacious deck faces Big Chippewa Lake; enjoy your 150 feet of lake frontage. Down by the water, approximately 300 feet from the cabin, you’ll find a nice swimming beach that is great for kids. There is a private dock on the water. The lake is great for fishing! Boats may be launched at the Public Access. Come visit this peaceful cottage, it will feel just like home.
We are the owners (Maynard and Dorothy) and we invite you to join us and relax in our private setting, surrounded by pines and native trees. If you see us working outside, say hello if you want; ask us what there is to SEE and DO in the Brandon area. We'll be glad to give you tips on how to live like a local. Our farmhouse has an attached house where we live seasonally.
