History hangs heavy in the air as Lake Vermilion was at the heart of the great logging campaign of the 1800’s that built America’s great cities as our country expanded Westward. Minnesota’s 1st Iron Mine was located on the Vermilion Iron Range and is now a State Park and Scientific Research Facility. Native Americans have occupied the Lake Vermilion area for the past 5,000 - 7,000 years and traces of their presence can be seen all around, by those with a keen eye.

Had a great time. The cabin was as discribed. Communication with owner was great! Will be back again hopefully.
We had a fabulous time…. Swimming off dock, fishing, star gazing, hammock swinging, books, and a couple fires. Kids caught loads of fish…first walleye! Cabin has super comfortable beds, clean linens. Washer/dryer a plus but used hanging lines more for our clothes. You are on an island and it slows everyone down. Need to be okay with no dishwasher, composting toilet, etc. Missing it! Thank you, Shaun.
Great Minnesota cabin experience. Girls enjoyed kayaking, canoeing, and catching fish from the dock. Watching movies in the evening. Secluded yet close enough to day trip adventures withthe family. Everything you need in one place.
It was a nice place to stay. Loved the privacy on the island. It was nice having the washer and dryer. Everything we needed. The only issue was it seemed like we could launch our boat at their dock, but that wasn’t the case. Now we know for next time. Overall, great experience!
Great week. Had some rain but still had a lot of fun swimming, boating, fishing and sitting around the fire.
Shaun's property is exactly as described. It is a very nice, private and peaceful location. Very remote. If you are looking for a remote experience, with complete privacy this is it. The cabin and property are well maintained and completely furnished and stocked with everything you need. Shaun's fishing tips are spot on, the man knows how to fish. I would not hesitate to recommend the property.
Overall we had a great time. How can you beat a cottage on a private island with two docks? We had 8 adults that slept inside, and it was comfortable. Fishing was great! Cleanliness of cabin depends on who was there before you. We made sure to leave it better then what we found it. The outside bathroom was nice, for some taking care of the composite toilet might seem like much, but it was no big deal for us. Laundry was nice, machines worked great. Large outside refrigerator. Some things to help out the next guests: If you have a boat, get with Shaun ahead of time to get details of where to launch (it is next to his dock and boat on mainland, but different road). He will also tell you where to park your vehicle and boat afterwards. As mentioned before, you are responsible for cleaning the cabin and grounds after your stay, so give yourself time to do so. We brought our own supplies, but many were on site (including garbage bags). You must take all garbage with you when you leave. We used the fish cleaning station a lot. No running water was present, no big deal, but it would be nice if a drain hose was added to sink so when cleaning off station it did not splatter everywhere on deck. We made sure to scrub the table and deck after each use. A kayak was available which was very nice, some good fishing right around the island! Overall had a fantastic stay! Thank you for sharing your island oasis with us!
Great place to stay! The views were fantastic the remoteness on the lake was exactly what we were looking for. Fish was good too. Catch fish all around the island Don’t even have to leave. What a wonderful remote getaway!!
We enjoyed a nice relaxing week at a great A-frame cabin on an island all our own. The property and location was perfect for what we were looking for and hope to get back there sometime. Has everything you would ever need, the hammocks and R&R was wonderful!
Black Bay is the perfect protected bay for launching and docking at the island, and it so quiet and wonderful. Just a short ride to amazing fishing. Not many houses or resorts in the area, which adds to the serenity. The island location was a dream...a fun little plot to explore and sit down at one of the many benches overlooking the lake. The hammocks were so relaxing. Blueberries and unique mushrooms all over the island. Mosquitos were much better than anticipated. I assume the island gets a bit more wind blown to keep the bugs to a minimum. Fantastic lighting all over the property and dock. Dock area was ideal, with fishing rod holders and life jacket storage, extension cord ready to charge the trolling motor. I didn't even realize there was a main bedroom with its own tv and walk out onto the porch by the fire pit. Kids had a blast sleeping in the loft area, with tons of books for reading. We loved the family atmosphere of all the pictures posted up all over the walls. It was a true home away from home with everything we needed and more. Shaun was super quick to respond to questions and seems like a real gem. If we get the opportunity to return, we wouldn't hestitate to do it again.
Was very relaxing island was beautiful had a great time.
Shaun is an awesome host. Third summer trip in last three years and plan to come again next year. Enough walleye to feed the family for days! Imagine an entire island all for yourself with everything you would normally have at home. Comfortably slept family of five. Bathroom, water, and boat ride to island are all no problems and should not stop you from booking. This vacation rental is unlike any other we have ever stayed at and we keep coming back and it gets better every time. Thanks Shaun and see you next year and the new dock was great for swimming and parking the boat.
This is a wonderful, isolated cabin. Best suited for smaller groups or families. We enjoyed our stay and had an excellent experience with the owner.
