About the host

Hosted by Paulette Arens

Mike and I have been coming to Leech Lake since we were kids when each of our families would come for a yearly family vacation. Our dads' loved to fish and wanted to share that love of fishing with their children.We each became hooked; hook, line and sinker. Mike and I are avid fishermen. Mike has been a fishing guide and we have both been in numerous fishing tournaments. Now, as adults, we want to share that family 'up north' feeling with you. So we decided one way to do that was to host on VRBO.

Why they chose this property

The tiny community of Whipholt is located on the South end of Leech Lake where the views of the lake are so vast you would swear you are near the ocean. We feel this end of the lake has a Million Dollar view. It is right off Highway 200.
