Across reviews, guests describe 5 BR, Movie Theater, Game Room, Water Toys, Beach as a spacious, well-stocked lakeside home for groups, featuring a hit movie room and garage game space, responsive management, and convenient location near shopping, restaurants, and activities.
Families appreciate direct lake access for fishing and paddling, plus kid-friendly spaces like the bunk room. A few reviews note missed cleaning in spots such as ovens or fan/baseboard dust, that the indoor fireplace isn’t available, and occasional weeds in the swimming area. Overall, expect a comfortable, activity-filled base by the lake.

We really enjoyed our winter getaway at this VRBO home in Baxter. The home was beautiful, clean and spacious. We had all the convenience of home. It was located near (approximately 2-3miles) water parks, shopping, restaurants and grocery stores. We had kids of multiple ages ranging from 6 months to 10 yrs old. The movie room, garage game area and bunkbed room was perfect for them. Communication with property management was excellent. Quick with responses. We would definitely recommend this home to families looking for a comfortable space for all ages.

This property was perfect for our family! The lake access was wonderful, successful fishing from the dock and the canoe that was provided. The kitchen was well stocked, TVs and games were very much appreciated. We also appreciated that a high chair, portacrib and bed rail were provided. A very comfortable house for our extended family of 10! Nicely updated and remodeled. The only deduction on my review is for the cleanliness. Overall, it was clean but more obscure places like the ceiling fans and baseboards were coated with dust. were coate

Very beautiful property that had everything we needed and great location. Movie room and garage filled with games was a plus! The only thing missing was the unavailability of the fireplace that was listed. Would have been great in the evenings. But what a wonderful place with room for the whole family.

For the price we paid, this place was a great deal. It had a nice big kitchen, the extra space in the garage was great for watching football and having a couple drinks. The theater room wasn't super useful for us, felt like it could use speakers (sound only came out of the projector), the firepit/lake was a LONG walk (their yard is huge), and we would have loved some kind of TV in the main space in the house as we congregated there a lot. Overall though it worked nice for our group and for the price we paid it was a great deal! Thanks for having a nice spot for our golf trip.

We booked this cabin for my folk's 75th birthdays and brought all our mid twenties children and one little one who's 3. The space is so great! Everyone has a place to sleep and with the movie room and game room in the garage, the elders could turn in early and the twenty somethings could play games and hang out into the evening without keeping everyone up! The lake shore was perfect for our 3yo., sandy and sloping gently. We brought a boat and had a great time tubing and caught some small fish right off the dock. There is a canoe and paddle board to use. Lots of sand toys and misc. Games to play with. The game room has a dart board, ping pong, and foose ball. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked! Even with 10 adults and 1 child we didn't run out of plates or silverware and there are utensils and pans galore. Beautiful property. We'll be back!

Mike was amazing, quick to follow-up on all concerns and issues. The beach and swimming area could be so much more with a little attention to weeds, but kids had a great time swimming. We had our own boat, and White Sand Lake was great for tubing, no traffic! The garage was awesome for the kids to hang out, could use a good sweep out but kids didn't care. The house was very comfortable and the movie room in the basement was an added bonus and kept the kids occupied in the evening hours. This is great house for family to hang out in. Fabulous location, close to Brainerd, Nisswa, restaurants etc. We had a great time at the Bax Cab and would highly recommend it.

Great location, open concept kitchen with 2 1/2 bathrooms snd 5 nice size bedrooms. We really enjoyed the area. Close to shopping, hop up to Nisswa, Cross Lake or Crosby. Our 12 year old had a blast fishing for sunniest off the dock. Great Lake to kayak, lots of birds and an eagle nest right around the bay!

We had 6 adults and 6 children stay at BaxCab and enjoyed it very much. The weather was VERY summery so we didn't use the playroom very much. However, it was nice to have the option and we did use it some for a couple games and storage for our items. The house was updated with a kitchen with everything we needed. The beds were plentiful and comfortable. With the AC going, the basement was very cold. The property manager brought over two kid friendly space heaters within an hour of our asking...not all the ceiling vents closed very well. He also had 2 brand new basketballs delivered when we said the two available ones were soft. The basketball hoop ended up being a bit too high for our grand kids to play though. Movie projector was used once for a movie on an extremely hot day but we had to jerry rig it so it was straight on the screen. The deck needs some work...new boards put on and deck chairs that don't slip into the cracks on the deck! We had a few mishaps when that happened. The yard was GREAT. We set up a bunch of yard games. Fishing was fun and we caught enough to have a fish fry. Beach sand area...good but there should be a walkway between yard grass and dock. Sand was VERY hot to walk on!! Swimming area was ok. Grand kids swam a few times, but it was weedy. We did try to clean it a bit with the tools provided. Fire pit area was very nice. Communication with property manager was SO GREAT! We would recommend this place to others for sure.

Our family (sons, daughter in laws, tiny kids, aunt and uncle) loved the whole experience. BaxCab is just as pretty in real life as in the pics. We found it very commodious. No problem fitting in seven adults and four little kids. The kids loved the theater and the grownups spent long lovely evenings on the deck, talking, sipping and drinking in the view! Mike made us feel welcomed and cared for - so we all really did end up relaxed and rested!

This house is set in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It was a sisters & daughters weekend for us. The house had plenty of room for 10 of us both in sitting, socializing, and sleeping. The location was close to do retail therapy on Saturday afternoon with restaurants. We enjoyed being able to also cook on our own with a well-stocked kitchen. While I asked many questions, the owner was quick to respond and also provided numerous videos to answer questions I hadn't thought of. We did not even venture out to the game room, so I cannot comment on that. Great house - great host. We agreed we would return here again on a sisters & daughters weekend.

we took 3rd in the tourney but were the real winners for having stayed at the Baxcab!we had one full team gather for dinner, the boys moved between the game room and movie room and had a blast!the parents enjoyed the open kitchen living room area with plenty of comfy seating for card games and chatter.

Mike was excellent throughout the process of making sure we checked in alright and had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for everyone and for storage. If you are downstairs, you can hear everyone walking upstairs and it’s pretty loud. Otherwise everything else was excellent

This house is set in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It was a sisters & daughters weekend for us. The house had plenty of room for 10 of us both in sitting, socializing, and sleeping. The location was close to do retail therapy on Saturday afternoon with restaurants. We enjoyed being able to also cook on our own with a well-stocked kitchen. While I asked many questions, the owner was quick to respond and also provided numerous videos to answer questions I hadn't thought of. We did not even venture out to the game room, so I cannot comment on that. Great house - great host. We agreed we would return here again on a sisters & daughters weekend.

Great location, open concept kitchen with 2 1/2 bathrooms snd 5 nice size bedrooms. We really enjoyed the area. Close to shopping, hop up to Nisswa, Cross Lake or Crosby. Our 12 year old had a blast fishing for sunniest off the dock. Great Lake to kayak, lots of birds and an eagle nest right around the bay!

We really enjoyed our winter getaway at this VRBO home in Baxter. The home was beautiful, clean and spacious. We had all the convenience of home. It was located near (approximately 2-3miles) water parks, shopping, restaurants and grocery stores. We had kids of multiple ages ranging from 6 months to 10 yrs old. The movie room, garage game area and bunkbed room was perfect for them. Communication with property management was excellent. Quick with responses. We would definitely recommend this home to families looking for a comfortable space for all ages.

This property was great for our annual vacation with extended family. This cabin offered lots of room for the nine of us tp spread out and have several activities goibg at the same time. The garage turned out to be the ultimate mam cave for darts and cards along with a ping pong competition. The nearby bike trail offered great fun and the deck was awesome for morning coffe and outdoor meals. The mangement was easy to work with and helped us reserve a boat for the week. We will definitely be back!

Mike was amazing, quick to follow-up on all concerns and issues. The beach and swimming area could be so much more with a little attention to weeds, but kids had a great time swimming. We had our own boat, and White Sand Lake was great for tubing, no traffic! The garage was awesome for the kids to hang out, could use a good sweep out but kids didn't care. The house was very comfortable and the movie room in the basement was an added bonus and kept the kids occupied in the evening hours. This is great house for family to hang out in. Fabulous location, close to Brainerd, Nisswa, restaurants etc. We had a great time at the Bax Cab and would highly recommend it.

We had 6 adults and 6 children stay at BaxCab and enjoyed it very much. The weather was VERY summery so we didn't use the playroom very much. However, it was nice to have the option and we did use it some for a couple games and storage for our items. The house was updated with a kitchen with everything we needed. The beds were plentiful and comfortable. With the AC going, the basement was very cold. The property manager brought over two kid friendly space heaters within an hour of our asking...not all the ceiling vents closed very well. He also had 2 brand new basketballs delivered when we said the two available ones were soft. The basketball hoop ended up being a bit too high for our grand kids to play though. Movie projector was used once for a movie on an extremely hot day but we had to jerry rig it so it was straight on the screen. The deck needs some work...new boards put on and deck chairs that don't slip into the cracks on the deck! We had a few mishaps when that happened. The yard was GREAT. We set up a bunch of yard games. Fishing was fun and we caught enough to have a fish fry. Beach sand area...good but there should be a walkway between yard grass and dock. Sand was VERY hot to walk on!! Swimming area was ok. Grand kids swam a few times, but it was weedy. We did try to clean it a bit with the tools provided. Fire pit area was very nice. Communication with property manager was SO GREAT! We would recommend this place to others for sure.

This property was perfect for our family! The lake access was wonderful, successful fishing from the dock and the canoe that was provided. The kitchen was well stocked, TVs and games were very much appreciated. We also appreciated that a high chair, portacrib and bed rail were provided. A very comfortable house for our extended family of 10! Nicely updated and remodeled. The only deduction on my review is for the cleanliness. Overall, it was clean but more obscure places like the ceiling fans and baseboards were coated with dust. were coate

For the price we paid, this place was a great deal. It had a nice big kitchen, the extra space in the garage was great for watching football and having a couple drinks. The theater room wasn't super useful for us, felt like it could use speakers (sound only came out of the projector), the firepit/lake was a LONG walk (their yard is huge), and we would have loved some kind of TV in the main space in the house as we congregated there a lot. Overall though it worked nice for our group and for the price we paid it was a great deal! Thanks for having a nice spot for our golf trip.

We booked this cabin for my folk's 75th birthdays and brought all our mid twenties children and one little one who's 3. The space is so great! Everyone has a place to sleep and with the movie room and game room in the garage, the elders could turn in early and the twenty somethings could play games and hang out into the evening without keeping everyone up! The lake shore was perfect for our 3yo., sandy and sloping gently. We brought a boat and had a great time tubing and caught some small fish right off the dock. There is a canoe and paddle board to use. Lots of sand toys and misc. Games to play with. The game room has a dart board, ping pong, and foose ball. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked! Even with 10 adults and 1 child we didn't run out of plates or silverware and there are utensils and pans galore. Beautiful property. We'll be back!
