*Note that we do not stock non-essential consumables like tinfoil, plastic bags, etc. Please plan accordingly for your vacation.

Prairie Lake is great for paddling and fishing. The gradually sloping beach is perfect for kids to swim, launching kayaks from, or just to relax in an Adirondack chair and enjoy the lake breezes. There is plenty of lawn space for games, fire pits to gather around, and a large deck for outdoor dining.

The peninsula extends out to the East, making it the perfect spot to watch the sunrises and moonrises. If you're lucky enough to catch the Northern Lights, the sky to the North is beautifully dark. We mention Summer activities quite often, but Spring, Fall, and Winter all offer memorable experiences here as well.

Whether you're visiting to marvel at the fall colors, warm up with a weekend of sauna sessions, or to jump in a frozen lake, we invite you to make Mallard Point your own.

Wonderful setting and thoughtful, fresh furnishings in each cabin. It was perfect for our extended family weekend in April. Who would have guessed we’d still be able to sauna and cut a hole to jump in the frozen lake, and ski across on a sunny day. Loved it. Thank you for offering it to others.

Great Venue for multiple families or couples

We rented both cabins for our family vacation and we’re so pleased. Since we had young grandchildren they could go easily between cabins, we could use a fire pit nearby when they slept or the larger when all together. Best part was having the whole place to ourselves with plenty to do: swimming, great sand beach, fish, kayak and plenty of room to run or play lawn games. The hosts, Emily and James are wonderful
