Multi-Family Lakeside Retreat

Formerly Mallard Point Resort, this little peninsula on Prairie Lake has been a Northwoods getaway for the 75 years. We're keeping the tradition alive by welcoming you to make this your very own group retreat. The property includes three cabins each with their own kitchen and dining spaces. The main cabin has a large deck with a dining and lounge space. The cabins are outfitted with modern comforts like WiFi and quality mattresses, but we're still cherishing our vintage resort roots. If you're looking for that up north, cozy, family cabin feeling, we think you'll like it here.

Cabin 1: Main floor bedroom- Queen bed, Loft Bedroom- King bed, 1 Bathroom
Cabin 2: Main floor bedroom- 2 Twin beds, Loft Bedroom- King bed, 1 Bathroom
Cabin 3: Primary bedroom- King bed, Secondary bedroom- 2 Queen beds, 1 Bathroom


⇸ High ceilings with large windows that face south for views of the lake and lots of natural light.
⇸ Three kitchens stocked with all the essentials- cookware, dishes, coffee, soaps, towels, etc.
⇸ Quality beds
⇸ Fully winterized with a gas fireplaces

Prairie Lake is relatively quiet and has little boat traffic, perfect for paddling and fishing. Visit the rocky gorge, reminiscent of the Boundary Waters, at the south end of the lake, take in sunrises on the dock, and enjoy listening to the loons sing. The water is shallow and gradual along our little sand beach, perfect for small children to splash and build sand castles.

This resort was very close to Grand Rapids. Had nice beds and good beach for the kids! The living and dining room works for a few sitting down but we made it work for 8 adults. Shower/bathroom nice size and updated nicely!!

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
