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 offer 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.
