About this house rental
Our lake home is what you are looking for. Level, sandy beach on a crystal clear, deep lake. Open, sunny floor plan with large windows overlooking the lake. The kitchen, with custom maple cabinets and stainless steel appliances, encourages family and friend gatherings. Informal dining area offers a versatile space for an intimate dinner or a larger family get together. Watch the lake and wildlife in the comfortable living room with a new sectional couch (fall 2023) or on the wrap around deck or in the three season porch. The knotty pine interior conveys a warm, inviting feeling.
There's plenty of sleeping room in this home with 2006 sq ft of living space. There are three bedrooms plus additional space in the three season porch or family room on the lower, walk-out level.
Surrounded by tall red and white pines, maple and oak trees, the natural setting ensures privacy and plenty of wildlife viewing. Sit around a crackling fire on a summer evening and listen to the bull frogs and loons.
The beach and dock are just a short walk down a gentle slope from the cabin. After a swim, paddle or a cruise on the pontoon boat you can relax in the three season porch or on the wrap around deck. The fishing is excellent in this clear lake and the only public boat landing allows only non-motorized boats. Our 18' Northwood Pontoon Boat (renovated 2023) to fish, to swim off of and to cruise is included in the price.
Leader Lake is a 160-acre lake that has a maximum depth of 56 feet and has a hard sand shoreline. According to the DNR, the primary game fish present include northern pike, walleye, largemouth bass, and panfish. Because of the limited public access, fishing pressure from non-residents is light.
WI-FI, SMART TV AND DVD.
The lake home is a 5 miles from Hwy 53. You'll find the basics in nearby Minong or Solon Springs; Superior and Duluth are 45 minutes away. Hayward is 35 miles away. From Minneapolis/St. Paul it's a 2.5 hour drive.

This house and property are lovely. There were a few odd things when we arrived—not the biggest issues in the context of our entire stay, but they were firsts for us after many VRBO rentals and were just odd…1. Upon arrival, the key was not in the lock box, but outside/below the lockbox on the deck.2. When we entered the cabin, the deck door to facing the lake) was halfway open and unlocked. 3. The towels were draped over the pegs in the bathroom (rather than folded in the closet in the bathroom).4. At bedtime, we pulled down the comforter on the bed in the master bedroom and discovered the mattress pad, a top sheet, and no fitted sheet on the mattress. I found the fitted sheet, unfolded in the closet. 5. The dryer had unfolded towels and washcloths left in the dryer.6. There was a pile of unfolded sheets on the couch/side table area of the sunroom bedroom. 7. There was marshmallow goo on the cooking forks in the entryway. I am not sure why guests would put the cooking forks back w/o cleaning them and why they weren’t cleaned prior to our arrival. The cabin floor, counters, etc. were clean and the cabin smelled like Pine-sol when we arrived. I wondered if the caretaker/housekeeper simply ran out of time or was really distracted.Leader Lake is a clean lake, located in a pretty chill, relaxing area. It was nice to have access to the pontoon. No dishwasher in the cabin. We were glad there was one air conditioner in the cabin as there were heat advisories 2 days

Great location and seclusion from neighbors! Fishing right off the dock catching panfish, big bass and northerns off the dock. Quiet lake with very few boaters!Accommodations were great for 3 couple and our grandson. Great space for everyone to sleep and relax.

Overall was a very pleasant stay. Could use window treatments upstairs to keep the midday sun out.

Our family vacationed in the Gordon area for the first time in several years. This has always been our favorite Northwoods vacation spot and it did not disappoint. The cabin was great, clean and perfectly situated on Leader Lake. The fishing was “awesome” and my grandson caught a “hog” bass off the dock within 15 minutes of our arrival. We had great fishing every day and we
loved having use of the pontoon boat as well as our own fishing boat. The deck was wonderful for quiet naps in the sun and coffee in the morning and for the first time in years we all watched movies together at night. It was a wonderful trip and we have already rebooked for next year.
