***5 day minimum stay required during June, July and August (peak season).
This Leech Lake home in Trader's Bay is located on what is considered to be the best stretch of beach on the entire lake. The beach is sandy and the water is clear and weed free.
On a dead end road, this property is extremely private for families. It is a completely remodeled home with 3 bedrooms in the main house along with a separate bedroom and bathroom space in the renovated garage living space with 2 twin beds. The detached living quarter space has its own bathroom, small private patio and sliding door to the lake (this rustic detached space is ONLY available mid May-mid October as it's otherwise winterized.)
The property includes a dock and a lift for renters. Docks are put in after ice out and taken out mid/late October. Times vary per year according to weather. It's approximately 15 minutes from downtown Walker.
The property is professionally decorated and includes extra fun touches such as family board games, outdoor bean bag toss game (cornhole), gas fireplace in main living area, smart TVs in main home, wi-fi, rustic playhouse for kids and a screened in gazebo with gas firepit. Smoke free, pet free home clean and inviting home.
Additionally, an outdoor shower makes for convenient lake life! For the ultimate lake life experience, we have another firepit (wood supplied to guests) at the lake's edge with Adirondack chairs for comfort.
A king size bedroom suite on the second level walks out onto a 2nd level deck with outdoor seating and additional gas firepit.
We can't put into words how amazing the lake and beach are at our property. The soft sand and very shallow entry into the water make this the PERFECT spot for family's with kids. Our kids can touch the sandy bottom well beyond the dock!!
This property is on 9 acres. Although we have a lot of room to roam, we ask that all renters respect our 8 person limit throughout their stay. We do not allow campers or tents to exceed this limit either. Violating this rule will result in losing damage deposits.
The following is provided to renters: most necessary kitchen utensils/dinnerware/cookware, toaster, coffee maker, crockpot, bed linens, bath linens, firewood, gas grill, paddleboard, paddle boat, cornhole bean bag game and ping pong table.
Boat lift: Uncovered, fits 19-20ft boat length up to 5,000 pounds. Docks and lift are removed sometime every October and every attempt is made to put them back in time for fishing opener. Timing depends on when the ice is off the lake and we are unable to offer a guaranteed date they are in or out because of these factors.
***Mid October - May the garage living quarters (bedroom/bath) are inoperable as they are winterized. Dock is also taken out during that timeframe.
***We do have an OUTDOOR security camera on our property that is motion activated. Camera is located on garage roofline and faces main home front deck.
***We pride ourselves on PERFECT accommodations for renters; however, Leech Lake typically has a Mayfly hatch for approximately 10 days mid to late June. This does somewhat effect the water quality and our normally pristine water and outdoor areas. Anyone renting during this timeframe acknowledges this disclaimer.
*** Our home is pet free. Violation of pets on property will result in a $250 additional cleaning fee.
***This property is in the thick of Minnesota lake country. Insects, animals, trees and all nature related elements will surround you on our property. We believe it's part of the charm of our private oasis. We can arrange additional outdoor cleaning/maintenance for sidewalks, beach and outdoor living areas during your stay for an additional fee if you put in this request.
