About this property

Finn McCool 200 Feet of Sand Beach

Finn McCool | 400' Private Sugar Sand Beach | North End Escape
Welcome to Finn McCool, a peaceful lakeside hideaway on the “North” end of Madeline Island, just about 20 minutes from the ferry dock in La Pointe.

Named after the historic sunken dredge Finn McCool resting on the lakebed just offshore, this charming cottage is a place to unplug, unwind, and fully embrace the beauty of Lake Superior.

🌊 The Setting
400 feet of private sugar sand beach
Cabin located just 75 feet from the shoreline
Fire pit for quiet evenings under the stars
Peaceful north-end setting away from the crowds
Spend your days beach walking, swimming, kayaking, reading in the sun, or sharing a meal and a glass of wine as waves roll gently onto shore.

🏡 The Cabin
This cozy lakeside retreat features:

1 Bedroom
Full Bathroom
Fully Equipped Kitchen
Small living area with lake views
Lakeside deck directly connected to the living space
Large windows and easy access to the deck keep the lake front and center, making it effortless to move between indoor comfort and shoreline serenity.

✨ The Experience
Finn McCool is a place to leave your computer and to-do list miles away. Wake up to the sound of waves, walk barefoot along your private stretch of beach, and end the day gathered around the fire pit with the vastness of Lake Superior stretching out before you.

If you're seeking simplicity, privacy, and a true Northwoods beach escape, Finn McCool is waiting for you.

Nice Little Getaway

Wonderful experience. We enjoyed being so close to the water and having a fire under a blanket of stars at night. The lake was so intensely rough when we arrived. We enjoyed watching as Lady Superior calmed so beautifully thru the course of our stay.

Great Stay

This place was great. We really enjoyed our stay. The one recommendation I would make - is that it would have been nice to have a little more stocked kitchen and bathroom. We stayed 8 days, and there was only one bath towel each, no salt/pepper/ saran wrap or items to hold leftovers. Would have been a nice addition to have a few more basic amenities in the kitchen. Otherwise, we loved our stay.
