“there is a wide range of activities for just about anyone or any family – the dads who want to go fishing, or the moms that want to go shopping or to the spa, and a bowling alley for the whole family.”
This MN resort is very historic, incorporating elements of elegance, charm, and warmth. While talking with Adam, a manager at the resort, he described the atmosphere at the resort to be “very laid back with a kind of nostalgic feel.”
He explained that there is quite a bit of history there, having been there since 1922. He talked about the lumber yard that once occupied the property and an infirmary that was there for injured soldiers in a nearby battle. He says everyone has a story to tell about the Chase, be those visitors, locals, or owners.
The resort offers a variety of rooms including classic rooms, lake-view rooms, state of the art rooms, 2 bedroom and 3 bedroom condos, as well as ownership opportunities with the Lakeside Condos. Chase on the Lake attracts a wide variety of visitors from romantic weekenders to snowmobilers and wedding parties. A large attraction to the area and to the resort is the Ealpout Festival, which can get very rowdy and fun for people. Also, Moon Dance Jam brings in a couple of bands every year, Adam adds,
“Kiss stayed here last year!”
Leech Lake is known for being a premier lake in the state of Minnesota; it has a great reputation. Having a resort on this lake is just great. In addition to the beautiful lake and amenities offered, Adam points out,
“it is in downtown Walker – It just can’t be beat!”
