About this home
There are lake homes...and then there are private islands. Welcome to 1922 Vellieux Island, an exceptionally rare opportunity to own your own island sanctuary on the crystal-clear waters of Rainy Lake on the Canadian border and adjacent to Voyagers National Park. (There are only 15 privately owned islands in the area and this is one of them!) Unlike other privately owned islands, 1922 Vellieux is flat, easily accessible, and easily buildable, and suitable for year-round living, which heightens the value. With panoramic water views, this privately owned island is in the ancestral home of the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) the rich history of the land and people is captivating and precious, and there's much local history of this island and its famous inhabitants. It continues to offer the kind of peace, privacy, and natural beauty that simply cannot be replicated.
Wake each morning to sparkling water, spend your days fishing, kayaking, swimming, or exploring the surrounding wilderness, and end each evening with unforgettable sunsets reflected across some of Minnesota's most pristine waters.
The main cabin (864 sq ft) has been thoughtfully updated with new windows throughout and offers comfortable accommodations - 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, kitchen, laundry, and a handsome stone-built, cozy, wood-burning fireplace—the perfect gathering place after a day on the lake.
Guests will appreciate the separate bunkhouse (404 sq ft), providing additional sleeping quarters and privacy with 2 bedrooms, living room, and a welcoming screened porch overlooking the water. (The bunkhouse does not have plumbing.) Sold furnished and in as-is condition.
Additional island amenities include:
Electric sauna,
Separate storage building,
Classic outhouse,
Private dock with room for two boats.
Whether you're seeking a year-round home, a seasonal family retreat, an unforgettable fishing basecamp, or a once-in-a-generation legacy property to pass down for decades, Vellieux Island delivers an experience that few properties can offer.
Accessible only by boat, yet worlds away from the pace of everyday life, this is your opportunity to own one of Minnesota's most extraordinary waterfront escapes.
Private islands are exceptionally rare. Panoramic views are timeless. Memories made here will last generations....
