Property Description
1 BIRCH ISLAND offers a rare opportunity to own a private island on Minnesota’s legendary Lake of the Woods. There are over 15,000 lakes in Minnesota, but only one Lake of the Woods — and among the few private islands on its Minnesota side, Birch Island stands apart as the true gem. Set on more than 9 private acres, this moderately developed island combines privacy and accessibility. Just 2.5 miles from the mainland at the Northwest Angle, the island lies close to year round resorts, local businesses, and populated islands — with the winter ice road passing conveniently nearby. Birch Island sits in the heart of world class multi species fishing. To the south lie the big water walleye bays, while to the north, the Canadian waters offer outstanding bass, crappie, and musky fishing. Closer to home, the island’s diverse shoreline provides endless opportunities to cast a line right from your property. The 2,604 square foot main cabin/home, originally built as a full time residence, rests on a concrete foundation anchored to bedrock. It combines rustic charm with function — featuring cedar shake siding, oak woodwork, and a kitchen and bathroom on each floor, allowing flexible living or guest arrangements. The property includes electric service, a deep 8" metal cased well, and a modern septic system, making it ready for year round use or future expansion. Birch Island’s over 2,000 feet of shoreline showcases incredible variety: rugged rocky bluffs to the west, calm protected harbors to the north and east, and multiple sandy beaches perfect for swimming or lakeside bonfires to the south — even a hand built helicopter pad of shoreline stone. Mature trees, native plants, and abundant wildlife, including a resident bald eagle, complete this natural retreat. Nearby, enjoy all the Northwest Angle amenities — local restaurants, fishing guides, and landmarks such as Sugar Point and historic Fort St. Charles. Modern conveniences are within reach too — yes, even Amazon delivers. From sunrise kayaks and evening bonfires to tranquil mornings filled with the sounds of water and birds, Birch Island invites you to live the true Lake of the Woods lifestyle. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a private island unlike any other in Minnesota.
