This is one of four lovely little cabins on the edge of Ely. The furnishings were very nice, the place was cared for, and it was very clean. Five of us stayed very comfortably for two nights. The cabin and furniture are beautifully made. Check-in was very easy with a lockbox with a code to access the key. The screened-in front porch and fire pit were nice to enjoy. If we had more time, we definitely would have used the canoe that comes with the cabin.

This was perfect little weekend getaway with aFew of our grandkids and to have it as a center point to take them to the wolf center one day and the bear center the next day plus we hiked around the local lake there in town and browsed the stores. Perfect.

This property was a great base camp for a day trip into the Boundary Waters. We were hosting out of town family and our usual full canoe trip wasn’t a fit. We loved this tiny house, and it had everything we needed. We had 4 married couples plus a single and we all slept comfortably. The kitchen had what we needed to cook as well. The screen porch was generous in size, and was thoroughly enjoyed.
