About Leech Lake / Walker

Leech Lake is Minnesota's third-largest lake at over 112,000 acres, and the Walker area surrounding it offers the widest selection of waterfront properties at the most diverse price points in the state. From $200,000 seasonal cabins to multi-million-dollar estates, Leech Lake has something for every buyer.

Walker itself is a classic northern Minnesota lake town — the kind of place where you know your neighbors, the local café knows your order, and the Fourth of July parade is a community event. World-class walleye fishing draws visitors year-round, and the Leech Lake area offers snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing in winter. The Chippewa National Forest surrounds much of the lake, preserving the natural beauty.
