Family Friendly Leech Lake Home On Three Level Acres Of Lakeshore
Enjoy our 2900 sq. ft. home located on Steamboat Bay of Leech Lake. This house has an amazing open kitchen/living/dining area overlooking the lake and front yard. Your lake view is an unobstructed southerly view of Steamboat and Walker Bay all the way south to the city of Walker. The home can comfortably accommodate 12+ people: on the main floor there is one king bedroom, one queen bedroom, one full bath, kitchen, living room, dining room, second living room, and a laundry room with a 3/4 bath. On the second floor there is two queen bedrooms and a king bedroom with single bunk beds. There is a full bathroom upstairs. The large open kitchen and center island area gives you plenty of room for preparing meals for big groups. The second living room with TV allows a nice area for guests to get away from the main living space. Beautiful deck located on the lakeside for enjoying coffee or the evening BBQ while absorbing the breathtaking views. The property is an amazing three acres of flat level ground with a front yard large enough for any summer activities. Perfect for a family vacation, family reunion, fishing trip, or wedding. There is 250 feet of shoreline and a harbor to keep your boat or the boat you rent safe while you are here but we do not have a beach/swimming area on our property as the lake bottom is soft with some weeds. There is a beautiful beach minutes away by boat or the public beach in town is 10 minutes by car. The paved driveway and parking area has ample room for all of your vehicles, trailers and toys. Located right on the paved Paul Bunyan bike/snowmobile trail gives you direct access to hundreds of miles of the best trail systems Minnesota has to offer. The property is easily located 1/4 mile off MN Hwy 371 giving you convenient access to Walker, Bemidji, or Itasca State Park. Only 8 miles south to beautiful downtown Walker.

Had an amazing time again! Large comfy home that has everything you need. Enjoy hours of watching flocks of geese and babies and wildlife throughout the day. Fishing always been great for us! Host family is always quickly helpful with any questions we have. We have rebooked many years!
This place was wonderful for everyone to gather together. Two big open areas so we could be seperate or together. The yard was big and beautiful. The wolf stature was great.
Our family enjoyed our week stay on Leech. The lake view from the deck was great. We enjoyed the beautiful walking trails nearby and fishing on Leech. The property was spacious, comfortable, and well stocked with everything needed.
This is our 4th stay and we always look forward to returning! A wonderful home away from home! Clean, comfy, well equipped, and the owners so great with communications! Would definitely recommend..just please, not the week we want to book!
This was our third trip to this property. We had a great time. The house is able to accommodate many people. The outside area is great for games. Highly recommend!!
Our second time staying here. Once again a great weekend with our family. Really enjoyed the house and the lake. Campfires by the shore. Our grandsons enjoyed fishing from the dock. Lots of sunfish, a few bass and croppies even a couple northerns.
This home was clean, cozy, and able to accommodate a large group of friends. The owner was responsive to our questions and needs. The home is located on Steamboat Bay, an area popular for bass fishing (fish the docks and grass). Note: Leech Lake is huge! If you’re here for walleye fishing, hire a professional. Other than that, you will need to bring 100% deed mosquito spray!
We had 2 families with 5 total children and this house had so much room! It’s bigger inside than the pictures do it justice. The living room space and the laundry were huge. Boys got some sunfish off the dock and we got some walleyes out on the lake and had a big fish fry! The walking path so close was great for mornings walks.
We had a great, relaxing week at Jon and Lara's Leech Lake home....everything was top notch. Jon met us at the home and showed us around and filled us in on everything we needed to know. The property was exactly as described and was well taken care of.
We ended up using 4 out of the 5 bedrooms, each having at least one king or queen bed. One 2nd floor bedroom included bunkbeds, which my daughter enjoyed. The kitchen included everything one needed for cooking and the dining table allowed everyone to eat meals together. We also made use of the table and chairs located on the deck facing the lake to eat outside on more than one occasion. We used the gas grill to cook a few meals and Jon had even dropped off a new tank in the event we ran out of propane.
My daughter enjoyed the play set with swings and treehouse-type room included. We didn't have to worry about our boat since the property has a dock in the small harbor that we could tie to when not out on the lake fishing. Jon and Lara provided firewood and we took advantage for a few bonfires at night with smores. The property is very close to a walking trail for those wanting to get some exercise and the large flat yard was used for yard games. My in-laws appreciated no steps to get to the lake.
We really love the Leech Lake area and it is nice being less than 10 minutes away from Walker in case we needed gas, groceries, a meal out, or shopping at Reed's or the other many shops.
Thanks to Jon and Lara for letting us rent their lake home and we look forward to scheduling another week next summer.
It's large and we'll furnished, wonderful kitchen and big yard. If space is what you want, this home is perfect. It is a little musty. Thanks for making check-in and checkout so easy
A very spacious house on a stunning property. Lakeshore view is beautiful. Amenities include a fire pit and lawn chairs that were not mentioned. We had a wonderful time.

Jon and Lara were both raised and still live with our three kids in the Walker area. Can't think of a better place to live.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property in 2005 to raise our young family in. Since childhood we have both always lived on Leech Lake and this property offered many of the unique benefits to living and raising a family in this wonderful vacationland. The quiet rural setting with large level property gave our family plenty of room to enjoy the best of what Minnesota has to offer. For ten years we have enjoyed the outdoor living this property provides. Biking, canoeing, yard games, four-wheeling, snowmobiles, and of course fishing on one of, if not the greatest, lake in Minnesota have all been the joys of living on this property. In 2015 we purchased a home and property in the city of Walker adjoining family property and much closer to our business. We still have the lake and the convenience to our business is nice, but we no longer have the peaceful tranquility and expanse this property offers.
What makes this property unique
In the many years we lived in this house, the southern exposure proved to be a huge benefit. Protection from the cold northwest wind meant we enjoyed many more days outside enjoying the yard, deck and Steamboat Bay. A northern exposure would have made these days miserable. The cold winds and rain usually do not come from the south. In the summer you can usually expect a nice southerly breeze off the lake to keep you comfortable. If you are vacationing in a questionable weather season it just may be the difference of enjoying the outside or staying in.
