Cozy Lake Cabin with Dock and many amenities!

Enjoy this Up North comfy private cabin that has lakeshore and a dock on beautiful 11th Crow Wing Lake which is known for its clear water and trophy Walleye fishing. Located in the quiet town of Akeley, the Birth Place of Paul Bunyan, this home is nestled between the resort towns of Walker (9 miles), Nevis (6 miles) Dorset (11miles) and Park Rapids (17 miles). Go a little further out to Itasca State Park (23 miles) and discover the source of the Mississippi River! Many amenities included! Enjoy easy access to the Heartland trail system only ½ mile down the road, and thousands of acres of Public Forest land. Hunt, Fish, Boat, Swim, Kayak, Canoe, Bike, Hike, ATV or enjoy shopping at the many quaint stores (including dining at the many restaurants) in the nearby towns. Our guests can also just relax next to a campfire down by the lakeshore or fire up the grill for a BBQ (bring your own charcoal). A selection of books, games and DVD family movies are available, however there is no cable/wifi. This 2 story cabin w/walk out basement sleeps 8 and features 2 bedrooms/1.5 baths and is approximately 1200sq ft. The upstairs main level has a master bedroom with a double bed and smaller sized half bath. A sleeper sofa is in the upper level main living room. An unique custom-built narrow spiral staircase leads to the lower level where there is a queen bed in the open Den area and a privacy screen door is available to set up for added privacy. The second bedroom in the lower level has a double bed and there is a full bath at the end of the hall. A washer and dryer are also on this level. The cabin is privately located on a hill across a small county road which separates the lake from the cabin and a few acres of woods surround the cabin where deer and other wildlife roam about. Launch your boat at the access near the public beach that is located just down the street and park it at our dock. There is parking for pontoons and large boats at the bottom of the hill and by the lakeshore. There is also parking on top of the hill behind the cabin for a smaller boat, trailer, ATV’s and can be a bit challenging for really large boats (personally, we have been able to maneuver a 21’ walleye boat behind the cabin without much of an issue). The driveway is covered with recycled asphalt and has about a 10-12% grade. A paddle boat is available for guests to use (a few adult life jackets are also available). We also have five adult bikes available (bring your own helmets). Please note that we do have a Dock Service company that typically removes our dock in October and puts it back in sometime in May and cannot guarantee that the dock will be in the water around these times. However, there is a sandy shoreline and a boat can be either pulled up onto the shoreline or anchored near the shore. We are proud owners that built this cabin while we were growing up and loved the area so much that we built a second cabin, that is located about 100 yards behind this property which we frequently visit and will share the driveway access while we are present. Since we are often "Up North" at our other cabin, we would love to hear from you- especially on how we can make your stay more enjoyable. Depending on the season and availability, we may have other amenities available for you to check-out including kayaks, canoes, row boats, fishing/swimming gear and other items. Some items have a small charge and/or deposit. If there's something you need, please just ask! We are available via cell/text. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable. We hope to add WiFi soon. Please check back with us on the status!
