About this property

Welcome to Big Sandy Retreat!

Big Sandy Retreat is your home away from home! Newly built 3-bedroom, 3 bath, beautifully appointed home with a view that will leave you spellbound.
The home features a gourmet kitchen with all of the essential cooking supplies.
Main floor full bath, comfy sofa to hang out and watch a movie or just look at the lake. Upstairs you will find a daybed and cozy chair along with a full-size washer and dryer. Huge master bedroom with double sinks in bathroom alongside a roomy shower.
The covered porch off the master is a great place to have your morning coffee! The other 2 bedrooms upstairs have queen beds plus twin bed to use. All bedrooms are supplied with lovely linens and extra if needed.
Enjoy sipping coffee or a cocktail while enjoying 130 feet of the Big Sandy shoreline. Area fishermen call this lake a great sport fishery. Boasting with 20 species of fish, so there is something for every angler! Being over 6,520acres and 59 miles of shoreline makes it an amazing reactional lake. You can travel by boat to thee many restaurants on the lake. Many of them have live music in the summer. Our dock has plenty of room for your boat. Or just relax on your own beach with plenty of outdoor seating, firepit and a hammock! In the winter enjoy ice fishing, snowmobiling or just snuggling up in a warm house with a view!
In case of a rainy day, the house has a 50" TV and plenty of games/puzzles to keep you entertained. If you enjoy shopping, check out McGregor or Aitkin for some cute shops as well as good eats. House has a ring doorbell and outside security cameras as well as security lights for your safety.
Whatever you are looking for, you are sure to find it here!

Wonderful stay
This was our children’s first cabin experience and it set the bar pretty high. The property is a very nice modern cabin with a nice beach, and fantastic views. We had a great time and hope to return.

Amazing!!
We loved this vacation home! We stayed for a family vacation with 2 toddlers. They loved the toy room with an abundance of kids toys and activities. The beach was great for them, would have been better if weather cooperated! Thanks for sharing your beautiful clean home home with us!
