About this property

Welcome to the Loon Nest! Relive the nostalgic cabin experience of your youth.
Built by my family in 1965 as a summer fishing cabin, many record-setting muskies were caught and released by my grandpa and dad while staying here. Facing Goose Island (a renowned fishing locale) on the big part of Leech Lake, you have unparalleled views and access.

There are two bedrooms, each containing a new queen mattress. There is also an inflatable queen mattress that would be ideal in the living room area. The living room and kitchen/dining room have an open plan with high timber ceilings.

Bring your boat! There is a dock and shore station for a small boat (18'fiberglass/20' aluminum maximum) to which you have access, complete with a foldable filet station on the front porch. Additional amenities include: canoe, washing machine and dryer, Wifi, DVD player and DVD library, full kitchen and bath, a lakefront fire pit, picture windows, and an outdoor sitting porch. Responsible pet owners with their furry friends are welcome.

Take a step back in time! Our family has infused the cabin with love for 55 years- my grandma created all the rag rugs that still cover the floors and all the decor is vintage and original. If you are looking for a fabulous lakefront getaway on Leech Lake, welcome to the Loon Nest. We are happy to answer any additional questions you may have.
Please note: The swimming ladder will be removed for the season by September 14 and the dock will be removed for the season by October 12.

Peaceful & Rustic Relaxation!

The cabin was an excellent rustic style cabin with most modern amenities, except A/C. The owners had all sorts of dry goods, spices 7 utensils available, as well as games & books. Going for a morning swim each day was AWESOME! Having a boat lift was even better than i thought it would be. Watching the sunrise out the windows with a cup of coffee was excellent. I would definitely stay here again!

Difficult to launch canoe

Very nice cute cabin . As 2 middle aged ladies of average strength we were not able to launch the canoe from the shoreline because of the steep rocky slope.

About the host

Hosted by Skye

I love nature and traveling. I have stayed in bed and breakfasts and guest houses all over the world, and my family decided we should share our peaceful cabin with you!

Why they chose this property

My grandparents built this cabin in 1965. They chose the location for the fabulous fishing on Leech Lake. My dad and grandpa won numerous catch and release muskie awards. I'm working on a quilt of all the muskie patches and will display it at the cabin eventually.

What makes this property unique

The lake is always changing. It is a big lake, so even the storms are beautiful. As a child I would dream about swimming from the cabin to Goose Island- it looks so close by. Darn those nautical miles!
