**★★★★★ — Gayle, April 2016**

> I had been dreaming of building my Lake Home for 20+ years; and when I finally chose Lands End Development, after seeing several of their homes on the Brainerd Lakes Home Tour, I knew I had the right builders.  Their attention to detail is really incredible and they were careful to listen to all of my wants and needs and how much I could afford to spend.  In the end, they were able to create my Dream Home perfectly.  And, they are super nice people too; easy to work with, and they make you feel like your project is their only project.  It was a great experience and I wish that I could do it all over again!

**★★★★★ — sborne1, Feb. 2014**

> This company is a dream to work with! We have had them do two major projects for us. The entire team is always available and go the extra mile for you. The design work, the ideas, and suggestions were spot on, they really took the time to listen and design what we wanted. No hesitation in recommending them for any of your design work, remodeling or new build jobs, big or small!

**★★★★★ — jlk109, Aug. 2013**

> We hired this company for a design/build lake home project.  Every aspect for the design and building process has exceeded our expectations.  The subcontractors as well as their own employees have been focused on excellence and details.  Their help in making selections that brought our dreams into reality has been a delight.

**★★★★★ — tjbray, June 2012**

> Land's End is a great contractor for your home building or remodeling project. Extremely conscientious, with a high attention to detail. Unlike some contractors, Land's End is very schedule driven, and manages their subcontractors to deliver a quality on-time result.

## Community Q&A

**Q: where did the chest in the bathroom come from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

The light blue chest with sink on top

A: That is a custom made Vanity by a local cabinet maker.

**Q: what color is the paint on the bedroom walls?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hirschfield's Historic  Vermont Slate E17   (matte)

**Q: Bathroom tile** *(in Photo Questions)*

Wondering if you had a link or where you purchased the tartan tile. Thanks!

A: &quot;TailorArt Series&quot;. https://www.olympiatile.com/product/series/879

**Q: Where did the candleholders come from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can I get the candleholders from an online store?

A: These candleholders were supplied by the homeowner. We are not sure where they were purchased from.

**Q: What is the tile in bathroom Lower Whitefish Lake 8** *(in Photo Questions)*

I am look for the tile In the shower and the floor in the picture Lower Whitefish Lake 8

A: Ceiling: Copper Rust Slate12x12” 
Walls: Copper Rust Slate 3x6” 
Shower Floor: Dusty Grey Pebble- sliced 
Bathroom Floor: Copper Rust Slate -Versailles pattern
All from &quot;The Tile Shop&quot; here in Minnesota.  This is an older project, and I'm not sure they carry these products any longer.

**Q: Backsplash - was any fire retardant added to it?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Love this look! Did you add any protective layer to the backsplash to make it fire retardant? I wanted to do this exact backsplash but was advised against it directly behind the stove as it isn't fire retardant.

A: The tile was from https://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/.  The Client chose a Linwood Natural Pattern that doesn't seem to be on their website any longer.  
I do not believe any Finish (fire-retardant or otherwise) was applied.
