Beautiful Home just 25' from shoreline of Leech Lake just 5 minutes from Walker

Whether your dream vacation is boating, water sports, fishing, shopping and dining or reading a book on the shores of a beautiful Northern Minnesota lake you need look no further. This lake home provides the perfect setting for a family or several couples to take in fun filled days, relaxing evenings by the campfire, watching the sunset or dining at one of the area's great restaurants only minutes away. Walk 25 feet down to the dock and enjoy the beautiful sandy bottom beach, perfect for swimming and playing.

The house consists of an original red cedar log home with a kitchen, bath, bedroom, great room / dining room and a comfy loft with plenty of seating for relaxed gatherings. An addition was constructed in 2009 adding a full laundry, foyer, master bedroom suite with a gas fireplace and flat screen TV, walk-in shower and 2 guest bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bathroom upstairs.

The home accommodates 8 people very comfortably. You'll find northwoods decor, leather furniture and the ambience and amenities you would expect in first rate 'Up North' home.

The location is perfect. A short walk and you are on the trail system. 3 miles from shopping in Walker and only 5 minutes from the area's finest dining at The Boulders. You'll find plenty to do in the city of Walker with the historic and beautifully rebuilt hotel Chase on the Lake, Reeds Sporting Goods, area restaurants and specialty shops to appeal to all.

The house is uniquely situated only a few feet from the shores of beautiful Kabekona Bay. Access to Walker Bay and Leech Lake is a quick 2 or 3 minute ride East across the Bay. Don't miss out on an experience you won't forget!

The house is only .3 miles from over 100 miles of trails for snowmobiling. Put your fish house (rentals available - just message us for info) out from the cabin on Kabekona Bay where the walleye fishing is waiting for you!

Summer vacation with kids and dogs
We loved the beautiful north woods cabin right on the shoreline with amazing sunsets. Our 2 English setters also had a blast. The kitchen was very well stocked, with everything you can imagine. Hope to be back another time!

Our second annual Labor Day gathering for our family. We just love this place. Gorgeous point on a lovely bay of Leech Lake which is perfect for relaxing, swimming, playing bocce ball & Frisbee, and just hanging out. The lake house is beautifully appointed with everything you need. Highly recommended!

Lovely Family Weekend
We had a wonderful long weekend with my family. There were 4 couples and each family was comfortable in their own room. The kitchen was easy to use and had all the tools and equip. that we needed so our meals were really nice too. There were good hang-out spaces for folks to take a break when the hustle and bustle of the larger group was tiring. It was a lovely family weekend and the location and house were just right for us. Thank you.

We stayed there the month of September & would not hesitate to book again! It will be our 1st choice. Great communication with Monica! We cannot say enough good about this home. Has everything you need, fully stocked & we highly recommend.

Snowmobile get away
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property! We had 2 families with 4 adults and 5 teenagers. The cabin was spacious and well appointed. We enjoyed the close proximity to the snowmobile trail. It was a little tight getting the snowmobile trailers turned around in the yard. The owner was very quick to respond when we had trouble with the door lock and reset the code for us. Overall great experience and would definitely stay here again!

Nice place to stay close to water!
We had to leave a night early due to family. Wondering if we can get a night refund or a night stay in the future? Other then that is was nice and we enjoyed it. I think it could be cleaner lots of animal hair laying around.

The Point Cabin, a perfect vacation spot!
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!

All was wonderful at the home.
We had a great winter escape. Home was cozy and spacious, very comfortable. All nice amenities but I think it advertised as queen beds and they were double beds in all but the master. So cozier than expected. Down side was the check out time of 10:00 am and the door code stopped working at 8:30am. Found this out when my husband was loading the car and could not get back in the house, luckily I could let him back in. Be wary of this if you have smaller children, you could get locked out and have to call the owner to get back in to continue packing. I recommend the door code not be changed until actual check out time at 10:00 am please. Overall a great stay!!

Wonderful Cabin and great location
We just got back from a wonderful week at The Point Cabin. The lake was beautiful, the yard and lakeshore area was perfect for relaxing and playing, and the cabin was perfect! The kitchen is very well stocked with dishes, utensils, and appliances, the beds are comfortable and the cabin is very large to accommodate a larger group. It is a perfect mix of new and old and has a very comfy up-north feel while still having all the conveniences of home and is very clean. Our group ranged in ages from 1 to 76 years old, the accommodations were great for every age. There is a boat launch very close and we even had great fishing off the dock! Ensure if you are here in the summer and have a boat you explore the channel between Kabekona Bay and Lake Benedict as it was very beautiful and fun to explore! The owners were some of the best I have worked with in terms of homes I have rented before. They were very friendly and helpful in answering any questions we had. I have a few tips for those with young children...do not forget a baby monitor and consider bringing a baby gate! We did not bring a baby monitor and it would have been helpful as the kids (1 and 3 years old) slept in the upstairs bedrooms in the very back of the house and it was hard to hear them if we were downstairs. Also there are 2 sets of stairs to the 2nd story and the front set of stairs is not very kid friendly (and of course our kids loved playing on it). I'd consider bringing a baby gate to put between the front and back sections of the loft and something for the bottom of the wooden stairs.

Old Crony Annual Golf Outing
We have stayed at VRBO listed properties all over northern Mn lake country for years. There is finally unanimous consensus amongst 8-70 something Yr old dudes that we have found our "go to" for future events. The pics and description of this beauty are spot on. It is a majestic place. The "extras" as far as provisions provided however are above and beyond anything I have ever experienced in 35 yrs of renting vacation spots. Finally, Monica is professional, responsive and a delight to do business with.

Perfect family lake getaway
After having our own lake place for 20 years we had to give it up about 10 years ago as our parents aged. This was a chance to get our family together again for Labor Day at a gorgeous Minnesota lake and it exceeded all our expectations. A magical stay at a wonderful lake home.

We are so appreciative of them opening up this gem for the rest of us… We’ll be back!!!

This was a home run for us. The location is right on the bay and has a beautiful view. Dock access for two boats was helpful and the number of bedrooms and living spaces let us bring out family with four children. We would definitely visit again!!
