Fox Hollow Cabin - Three blocks from the iconic Federal Dam on Leech Lake!

Located in the heart of Federal Dam, we may not be on the water but we are conveniently located just three blocks away from the iconic Federal Dam and Leech Lake Rec area where you can fish from shore or take your own boat out on Leech Lake or the Leech River. Many other fishing spots in reasonable distances. Please note, due to the current of the river and the Dam itself, there is no swimming beach located in Federal Dam. However there is one in Sugar Point or down by Walker. Also, please note there are no restaurants or grocery stores in Federal Dam. There are multiple restaurants as close as ten miles away, and the closest full grocery store is a 25 minute drive.
We are also just blocks away (walking distance) from the Soo Line Trail north, a 150 mile ATV trail that's great for hiking, biking, or bringing your ATV's.
We have two rental cabins on the property as well as a Gift Shop and Bait Shop. We have room for parking for truck/trailer or truck/boat.

Smart TV's in the living rooms.

Summer '23
It was exactly what Mike and I needed. A place to "go home to" after spending time with relatives. Even though when we stayed the temp hit an all time high (97)!!!. The cabin was a perfect size for us. Loved that the furniture was custom-built and the pictures are available to purchase!!! They, IN themselves make the cabin!!! It was very peaceful. Tiffany (the owner) is very nice. We will definitely be back for a longer visit.

A great little cabin.
This is a small cabin, but plenty big enough for a couple. The kitchen was stocked with all the pots and pans that we needed. There was a coffee maker, lot of plates and dishes. We took two long walks from this cabin, one on the Soo trail, and abandoned railroad. We also walked the rec area and campground of the nearby cabin. A great place to get away.

Way better then expected
We really enjoyed our stay in Fox Hollow. We didn’t expect such a nice place. The gift shop was a bonus. TV & WI-FI worked very well. The cabin was well stocked. Great place to stay if you plan to fish on Leech or Winnie. Only down side was lack of shade. Next time we will elect Dear Den as there is a big shade tree in front. We used fire pit a lot and found it too much in sun. A/C in cabin was really appreciated. Tiffany was very friendly and helpful.

Great Leech Lake Cabins
The cabins are great places to stay. Clean with unique decore. We had everything we needed. It is a small cabin that works great for a small family or couple. The manager was very helpful and friendly. She referred us to great services (boat rental, etc).

Lovely relaxing stay.
Dam Cabins are great. Everything you need to make your stay comfortable, especially the bed! Very pet friendly. Federal Dam is quiet and a nice place to walk your dog. Located on the quiet side of Leech Lake, just what you need after a busy day of shopping and hiking. Destinations are within easy reach, Bemidji, Itasca, Walker. If you want a relaxing stay in comfort, then Dam Cabins are for you.

Our time at Federal Dam
This property is across the the road from the dam. Beautiful sunsets and it offered a great park for walking. The house is decorated beautifully, but the couch was hard for two to watch tv. The kitchen was not well set up for a long stay. We enjoyed our visit but things were very remote, like groceries. This is an excellent weekend place!

This place was absolutely amazing! Everything was way better in person (they already had great photos) and we had an amazing time. This is definitely marked as a must for places to stay in the area. While things are a bit out of the way the area is lovely for a relaxing time and offers some nice walks.
