About this property
Bear Den Cabin - 3 blocks from the iconic Federal Dam and Leech Lake!
Located in the heart of Federal Dam, we may not be on the water but we are conveniently located just three blocks away from the iconic Federal Dam and Leech Lake Rec area where you can fish from shore or take your own boat out on Leech Lake or the Leech River. Many other fishing spots in reasonable distances. Please note, due to the current of the river and the Dam itself, there is no swimming beach located in Federal Dam. However there is one in Sugar Point or down by Walker. Also, please note there are no restaurants or grocery stores in Federal Dam. There are multiple restaurants as close as ten miles away, and the closest full grocery store is a 25 minute drive. We are also just blocks away (walking distance) from the Soo Line Trail north, a 150 mile ATV trail that's great for hiking, biking, or bringing your ATV's. We have three nightly rental cabins located on the property. We have room for parking for truck/trailer or truck/boat. Our cabins were built in 1950 and have been completely renovated in 2022! The Bear Den Cabin can sleep up to four guests, with a queen bed in the bedroom, twin bed in the main living area, couch in the living room that folds into a full bed, kitchen table with chairs, and a full kitchen. The bathroom has a full shower stall. We have pots/pans, silverware, dishes, cooking utensils, toaster, and 12 cup coffee maker with filters in the kitchen. Hair dryer in the bathroom. Smart TV's in the living rooms. The party making the reservation must be the one to check in and be staying during the reservation. The correct number of guests/pets must be on the reservation prior to check-in. There is a fee per person after the first two guests. Check in is between 2 pm - 10 pm. No late check-ins accepted. Check Out is 10 am. We allow pets in the cabins with pet fee, but they must remain leashed, picked up after, and not be left alone in the cabins or tied up outside unsupervised.
