About this property

The Point-cozy hse. set betw 2 shores,sunrise/set views,sand beach,canoe,15 acrs

Nestled at the tip of a long forested peninsula between Kitchi Lake and its bay, The Point offers the storied Minnesota lakehouse experience and all the family memories that come with it.

This cozy and secluded cabin is just steps from the lake and a 150 foot sand beach with docks on each shore. Its east and west facing windows offer breathtaking views of sunrises and sunsets and local wildlife, including bald eagles (which nest nearby) blue herons, swans, deer, beaver and otter. Turtle River, Kitchi and the two nearby Rice Lakes also offer spectacular scenery, and great fishing, including walleye, northerns, panfish, bass and the occasional muskie. Kitchi Lake is also part of the eight lake chain anchored by Cass Lake (a ten minute boat ride to the south) which is a favorite with muskie fishermen. We also provide an Old Town canoe and kayak with the property.

The house sleeps six, has three bedrooms, two with queen size and one with single beds and two full bathrooms The single floor, open concept layout, and single step rear entrance allow for easy access by seniors. Windows and ceiling fans transmit the steady lake breezes throughout the house.

Amenities include washer and dryer, coffee maker, coffee press, rice cooker and crock pot, gas grill, fire pit, dishwasher, high speed satellite internet. and Dish TV. We also provide a wide screen TV in the living room and a standard set in the master bedroom. We furnish linens and towels, and dishes, flatware and pots and pans.
.
Our dock can handle large boats and pontoons, and if you bring your own boat with a rollaway or bunk trailer, you can launch it at the beach. If not, use a boat landing about a mile away. You can also rent boats locally.

With only one other house about a quarter of a mile south on the peninsula, and above that completely undeveloped Federal land to the main road, The Point offers a measure of seclusion in nature that is truly unique while its proximity to Bemidji provides quick access to necessities.

Guests should be aware that we have a no pet policy.

* If your party much larger than seven, consider also booking our companion property, a quarter mile up the road (listing number 596613) which handles 7, or combined, around 13. Renting the two properties is also the solution for groups who want a shared vacation experience while maintaining separate family accommodations.

Great Property
Stayed at this property for a second time. Everything was in working order outside a few items Frank was made aware of and will be getting fixed for future guests. He was very fast at responding to questions and providing all info on cabin ahead of time. The whole house AC was actually a blessing in disguise as it was very warm and muggy to start the trip off. We were able to launch boats right at cabin which is nice and convenient. The ice maker on fridge was able to keep up all week with all the drinks and hot temps. The location of this property is very remote but provides a very quiet and peaceful environment to relax. Bass and northern were able to be caught right off the dock. Overall great property and location. Would definitely stay at this property again.

Great northern Minnesota spot!
The home was cozy and the outdoor space was perfect. We spent a lot of time on the dock and it has a nice swimming area as well. We brought our boat and really enjoyed the lake (water sports and fishing).

Spectacular views and outstanding fishing!
This cabin was perfect for our annual family fishing trip. The cabin is totally secluded and easy access to all the lakes. We used the nearby resort to unload and load our boats. The dock was prefect for the two 19ft fishing boats with electrical options for charging the boats each night. Outside fishing cleaning station was perfect.

Amazing week at this quiet cabin
We had an amazing week at the point on Kitchi Lake. The cabin is very private (besides people fishing around the point) and secluded. The road/driveway to the cabin is very long, and twisty, making it a little nerve-wracking with a boat and trailer. But, we managed just fine. Lots of wildlife viewing and space in the yard for our 5 year old to run and play. He enjoyed the sandy beach and shallow entry to the lake, and also caught his first fish off the dock. The cabin was very spacious for the 4 of us, and we enjoyed the lake views from every room. We will definitely be back again!

Secluded, Private, Fabulous
Overall, we were so pleased with this property and our stay. No complaints here. It's a spacious, up to date, convenient home, and we were never cramped or crowded. The cross-breeze was divine, coming from both sides of the lake. We spent alot of time on the water, either in our boat or in kayaks. I took a zillion photos- it was a lovely spot to practice my dragonfly and squirrel photos. I saw the biggest snapping turtle I've ever seen, swimming out past the weeds. We caught some nice perch, a walleye, and a huge bass. Fish fry night was excellent! We usually only rent cottages once- we like to explore and rent something different every year, but we'd totally consider renting this one again!

About the host

Hosted by Frank Welsh

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

Our family has owned property on the peninsula for three generations and my father built a house in the 1980's (also listed on VRBO no 596613) about a quarter mile south of the Kitchi point cabin. I've visited The Point (as it has always been called) since I was a boy, fished off the dock, and have known the the three former owners. The last couple built the current cabin (really a four season house) about 2001, and when they put it on the market I made an offer. Although I don't fish anymore, it is a uniquely beautiful spot and the perfect vantage point for taking pictures of wildlife and boating on Turtle river and its connected lakes.

What makes this property unique

The Point sits at the tip of a north/south running peninsula, perhaps 150 feet across with lake access on the east and west shores. It is the only area property I've seen sited between two shores, and It affords spectacular views of sunrises, sunsets and wildlife. We have always had a pair of eagles nesting at the south west corner of our original property (one of the current pair pictured flying by the house). With just one other house on the peninsula, about a quarter of a mile south and undeveloped Forest Service land to the south of our property easily adding over 60 acres, to the 40 plus that we own It is very secluded and relaxing location. For those who want to fish, or explore the area, it is in the middle of the eight lake chain of inter navigable lakes, centered by Cass Lake to the south (a ten minute boat ride) and these lakes (including Kitchi) offer great fishing for pretty much all the popular game varieties.

Note - if your party much larger than seven, consider also booking our companion property, a quarter mile up the road (listing number 596613) which handles 6, or combined, around 13. Renting the two properties is also the solution for groups who want a shared vacation experience while maintaining separate family accommodations.
