Pelican Island

Private Retreat on 35-Acres in Walker, Minnesota! 1720/1730 Pelican Island Landing N.W.

Have you ever dreamed of owning property on an island? Here’s your chance to make that dream come true. Nestled on Leech Lake, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers a perfect blend of rustic charm, serene natural beauty, and unforgettable experiences. Just a 15-minute boat ride delivers you to your own peaceful haven, where the everyday world fades away. With approximately 35 acres of privacy surrounded by sparkling water, this rare property is the perfect backdrop for long weekends, reunions, lake “Olympics,” or simply quiet sunsets and starry nights by the bonfire. And if you’re in the mood for some excitement, there are various lodges around the lake — accessible by boat — where you can enjoy dining, shopping, and entertainment to round out your stay. The property offers your own island playground — perfect for gatherings big or small — with a main house and three cozy cabins that sleep 13 comfortably (plus room for two more if you don’t mind roughing it!) You’ll enjoy two beaches, including a sandy one ideal for swimming and sunbathing, endless space for lawn games, volleyball, exploring, and adventure, and scenic trails through lush, jungle-like woods. Golf carts, a Bobcat, and a vintage tractor let you get around in style, while kayaks and a rowboat invite you to explore the shoreline — about an hour to paddle all the way around. Fully furnished and ready to enjoy, all you need to bring are your swimsuits and s’mores. At the end of the day, gather around the lakeside bonfire under a sky full of stars — the perfect way to wrap up a day of swimming, paddling, fishing, and memory-making. While another owner holds a portion of the island, it’s naturally separated by marsh and harbor, preserving your privacy. If you’re looking for something truly extraordinary — a place to laugh, play, and connect — this private island retreat is waiting for you. The listing agent is also the owner.
