About this property

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!

Everything was good. Would definitely recommend the property to friends and family Only complaint is that the confirmations from VRBO were a little hard to navigate. Felt like I went down a rabbit hole trying to find information about checkin, checkout, security code. Stay was good. Beautiful place. Loved the decor.

We had a great weekend in this cabin, it was equipped with everything we needed!!! Monica was fast to respond to all messages I sent her before, during, and after the trip. There was plenty of room for 8 adults for a long weekend getaway. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this cabin to anyone.

This property isn't secluded the neighbors house is so close...I've seen houses in town farther apart...it was dirty windows haven't been cleaned in awhile...I had to sweep the patio door handle didn't work on one door have to walk a ways to take garbage to the garbage cans not much fish in the bay...nothing off the dock, privacy was horrible...first lawn service and then surveyors and neighbor chain sawing 6:30 in the morning and parking was a nightmare if you had more then 1truck and trailer and also have cameras on you....the layout in the cabin was nice.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Sept 2025
This guest brought several dogs on the property without paying the pet fee or registering the dogs. We communicate our pet fee (and 2-dog limit) on the vrbo property listing, in the rental contract and again in the welcome letter. The guest ignored all 3 of those communications. When our turnover team arrived, they found clear evidence of pets having been on the property. The guest was then charged the pet fee. As a result she communicated that should would be leaving a retaliatory review. I checked in with the guest after their arrival and the only issue brought to light was a loose door handle and a loose tile. I was told everything else was great. We encourage anyone reading this to view the photos showing both the privacy and very ample parking space. The garbage is picked up at the end of our secluded, private driveway. We do have lawn service that comes on Wednesdays and that is communicated in advance. Additionally, as communicated we do have exterior security cameras that are not facing guest enjoyment areas but only the keyed doors & driveway. Our 130 10-star reviews should provide a more realistic experience of what you can expect.

About the host

Hosted by Monica McGill

Host profile image
The Point Cabin was purchased by our parents in 2000 after more than 15 years of staying at resorts on Leech Lake. Our parents restored the cabin to like-new condition and added on in 2008. Sadly, our mother passed away in 2010 and life took our father in a different direction. In 2018 we had the opportunity to purchase the family cabin. We look forward to not only our family continuing to make memories in our beloved home, but for your family to make lifelong memories here as well!

Why they chose this property

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 2009 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.

What makes this property unique

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 area's trail system or rent a boat/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 (Reservations recommended!). Whatever you decide to do on your vacation, this is the place to do it.
