About this property
Year Around Beautiful Lake Home on Birch Lake 3 hours from Minneapolis.
Our home, our legacy... your playground and escape. Your home away from home. This beautiful 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom, lake facing and lake shore property sleeps 8-10 comfortably. Spacious and fully equipped open kitchen. Loft suite with King bed and walk in shower. 2 main floor bedrooms and bathroom and one bedroom and bath on the lower level. Open floor plan. Very large deck, patio, gas grill and seating for eight or more. Washer & Dryer on lower level.
NOTE: Our nightly rate is based upon 8 guests for your stay. Any additional guests incur an extra charge of $40 per night, per guest, to account for the extra cleaning, linens and towels necessary during their stay.
There is 85 feet of sandy beach and lake shore just steps from the front door. Dock available for securing your boat and fish house for cleaning fish. Birch Lake is incredibly clear and suitable for swimming, fishing, jet skiing, and boating. Bass, Northerns, Walleye, Crappies and Sunny's can all be caught on Birch Lake. The public landing is just 1 mile from our dock.
Birch Lake never disappoints with beautiful sunsets summer or winter. Within walking distance from our home is the beautiful Paul Bunyan State Trail, a multi-use recreational rail trail running between the cities of Brainerd and Bemidji. Named after the giant lumberjack Paul Bunyan of American folklore, the trail is the longest continuously paved trail in the United States. Excellent for biking, hiking, in-line skating and snowmobiling.
Hackensack is walking distance from the home and the locals welcome the opportunity to share Mark's Market grocery store, Swansons Bait Shop, weekly meat raffles at the American Legion, the best Hardware store, tennis courts and the central town playground for youngsters. When not on the lake check out Bear Paws Movie Theater just 2 miles away.
Walker is just 20 minutes north and is home to many shops and eating establishments. Be sure to check out Chase on the Lake, Northern Lites Casino, the annual Eel Pout Festival and Reeds Sporting Goods.
Winter in this home brings a whole new level of serenity! It is beautiful and quiet. The perfect place to rest, reflect and share comfort food over meaningful conversations, fires on the snow covered beach or fireplace and catching up on long awaited book reading. Perfect for winter lake skiing, snowmobiling, ice-fishing and more. Cozy and intimate this is one of the most beautiful times of year to celebrate.

Why they chose this property
We are 3rd generation owners of Odie's Place. Odie was my grandmother and in honor of her we share this very special place with you. As a family we spent precious summer days swimming, skiing and fishing endlessly. We worked at the local grocery store as teenagers to ensure our keep. We shared so much laughter, joy and peace filled weeks together. The memories continue to be made and we hope you will be a part of them by making your own while here. Odie's is a very special place! Odie would insist you sleep in, eat and/or drink every hour and return often. Please honor her request.
