Friends Weekend
We had a great stay on the lake. The home was clean and stocked with what we needed for preparing meals. Communication with our host was wonderful, we had all our questions answered promptly. The fishing was fantastic right in the bay.

Very Nice & Clean Winter Escape
We (6 adults) came to the area for a pool tournament at No Lights Casino. When we walked in we were impressed by the cleanliness and tasteful furnishings of the house.

We spend a few days fishing every fall and the Shingobee Retreat was the perfect spot. Boat launch across the highway, 5 minutes from downtown, and a great location on the lake. Super clean and organized. Seamless check-in/out, welcoming hosts. Will stay again.

Excellent for fishing vacation!
This house was perfect for our annual family fishing trip. Easy access to Leech Lake and dock is protected when the winds are strong. We easily got two 19 foot boats along the dock. Wonderful, responsive, and friendly property owners. House was extremely clean and we will certainly book again in the future.

Walkers Hidden Gem
My wife and I have been hosting our kids their spouses and grandchildren for an "up north" cabin vacation for the past dozen or so years at a small family run resort. We were a little nervous going the Vrbo route but the Shingobee Retreat couldn't have been a more perfect place for us. Some highlights: - Location: Perfect location just minutes to Walker by car or boat. Minutes from the golf course, walking distance to the marina/resturant, in a calm bay and great access to all the Leech Lake water -Shingobee Retreat: The house is gorgeous inside. Big comfy sitting area by the bay window became our cuddle spot with the grandkids. The bedrooms were very spacious with very comfortable beds. Having a main living space with the downstairs area gave us not only practical space but some downtime private space for folks as well. We learned that 9 or 10 of us in one level 3 bedroom cabin can lead to a few frayed nerves at times. Shingobee really did provide us with a "retreat". The deck has a spectacular lake view and the ground floor patio has a very cool vibe sitting so close to the lake and reeds-perfect fire pit location. Oh...and let's not forget about the private dock! Frankly...these guys thought of everything. Host: Kelli is really on top of things. Great response fantastic information in the booklet..kudos! She and her husband are really nice people. Almost like talking to the next door neighbors. The whole crew can't wait to re-book for next year!

This house was everything we needed. Beautiful, Spacious rooms. Water front property with a boat dock. 2 kayaks and a paddle boat. Short drive to Walker stores and shopping. The only thing besides food and drinks we needed to bring were our beach towels.
