Great get-a-way cabin

My boyfriend and I, along with 3 other couples, rented this cabin for a birthday weekend get-a-way. It was absolutely perfect! The cabin is extremely spacious and gorgeous. Because the cabin is located directed on Leech, we were able to ice fish just steps away from the front door. I highly recommend this rental for anyone looking to stay at Leech Lake!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, tourists without a car, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We really had a nice time in this well maintained lakefront home, everything we need was right there, a nice dock with a boat lift, a sandy beach, beautiful sunset views and the bike trail. This home is perfect for family reunion with the four bedrooms and the two living rooms. I defiantly would like to stay here again.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

My family and I recently stayed at this property. The owner was extremely helpful and responded quickly to all of our questions. The house is very well-kept and comfortable. We were especially pleased with the quality of the bed linens and mattresses (good sleep is key for us while on vacation!). While there is exactly a "beach" by the property, there was a sandy spot that was adequate for our young kids to play in and the dock was large enough to hang out on. We did rent a boat and had a great time exploring the lake. Also, the town of Walker was really cute. We enjoyed the candy store, pizza at the local pizza place, and our breakfast at Jimmy's was delicious. Overall, I highly recommend this place--even my picky husband was pleased!Recommended for: Families with young children.

The house is decorated in true cabin fashion. Every room reminds you that you are up North! The house easily slept all nine of us (4 adults and 5 children ages 10-18). We especially enjoyed the swimming from shore or jumping off the dock. The lake is very clean and not a lot of boat traffic. The bike/ walking trails are close and the town of Walker has great places to eat. We look forward to a return visit.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We loved our recent stay here! The house is so well equipped, beautifully appointed, actually couldn't have been better. Everyone loved the comfy beds, huge windows and ceiling fans (we rarely needed the a/c). The screened porch may have been our favorite spot, a great place for 'happy hour' and the sunset views from there were unbeatable. Beautifully clean lake with sandy bottom for swimming and we appreciated the boat lift and large dock. The yard was perfect for croquet and we had a fire for s'mores. The owner was very helpful with all the arrangements and responded quickly to questions. Thanks for such a wonderful vacation spot!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

Thank you so much, an absolutely wonderful place to stay. The bedrooms were large and private. The kitchen was well spacious and well stocked. The views off the back of the house were amazing. We had two ladies catch their first crappies off the dock!! We'll be back.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, sightseeing.

This home nestled in the pines on beautiful Kopekona Bay was beyond our expectations. Thomas Kincaid or Terry Redlin could have used this property as the model for one of their famous lakes country paintings. The cozy inside spaces were immaculate and everythng anyone could want for a fantastic visit to the best Minnesota has to offer.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Why the Owner Chose Walker:
After vacationing in the Walker / Leech Lake area for many years, falling in love with the area and making many friends we decided we wanted to own a property here so that we could spend more time enjoying all that we had come to love. After much looking we chose a charming red cedar log “cabin”. It was a private refuge with a secluded, calm “up-north” feeling. Over the years we remodeled and finally added on in 2008 creating an amazing retreat. Life then took us in a different direction and we didn’t have the time to spend at the lake that we once had. We decided to maintain our family cabin and make it available to others as a remarkable rental property.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
The Point Cabin, as we call it, is uniquely situated on a small point of Kabekona Bay affording incredible, panoramic views of this beautiful Northern Minnesota lake. You will enjoy a 180 degree view of the bay. A mere 25 feet from the water the cabin provides an intimacy with the lake that few other properties can. Less than 10 steps and you are on the dock. There is also a beautiful lawn to enjoy lawn games, a fire ring for the marshmallow roast or relaxing and telling your favorite Minnesota ghost stories. Cast a line from the dock, take a swim in the sand bottom swim area or read a book in the hammock. A short walk and you can access the areas trail system. Or rent a boat or Jet Ski and enjoy fishing or water sports on this protected bay. Prefer shopping or dining? The Point Cabin is located about 3 miles from downtown Walker and even closer to one of the area’s finest restaurants, Boulders. Whatever you decide to do on your vacation this is a great place to do it.
