Summary:
Quaint cabin settles deep in the north woods on Lake Vermilion. Situated on a bank overlooking the lake this cabin offers stunning views and fresh breezes year round. Just a short set of stairs to the lake where you'll find a sandy beach and three large docks.

21 foot Bennington pontoon available for guests to rent at $200 per day. Reach out after booking to reserve.

The Space:
This cabin was built for rentals around 1953 and has hosted thousands of families overthe years. Since we purchased it in 2017 we have done some updates but the overall charm is not lost.

The Neighborhood:
With 25 steps to the water we do not recommend renting if you have mobility issues. The property owners and other guests at the property may have dogs off leash.

Other Things to Note:
This cabin is one of three on our property and Bayview Lodge is located to the East of our property. During summer months there is an outdoor bar at Bayview Lodge and despite the large fence it is something that you can generally hear when outdoors. They are great neighbors and shut things down by 10 pm but if you don't want to hear or see other people this property is not for you.

Interaction with Guests:
We have a home on the property and are usually available. Although we're close we understand that people come up here for privacy and always respect their space.

    This was an old cabin under renovation. The interior was quite spacious and livable, but exterior grounds were undergoing trenching, etc. The Petersons, owners, were in cabin next door; they provided an extra heater for our bathroom and were very cordial. They did express some dismay in getting contractors for aspects of the renovation. The cabin was on Lake Vermilion, but bank was quite steep, so getting a canoe or kayak to the Lake there difficult--but the Petersons indicated they had a canoe available, and of course there is public access not that far away. The cabin was conveniently located for visits to nearby State parks, especially the Soudan Iron Mine, and also the Ojibwe Heritage Center. And Ely was not that far away either. For those looking for a pet-friendly, spacious cabin, I'd recommend contacting the Petersons directly to see the current progress of renovations.

    Outstanding experience with owners and the property. We had originally reserved a smaller cabin but they had begun closing it up for the winter and generously gave us a larger space for same price. Cabin was very clean and came with everything needed for our four night fishing trip. We were very pleased with our stay and will be reserving next year too. Excellent choice for anyone looking for a property on the Tower end of the lake. Owners were easy to communicate with and made sure our needs were met.

    Our cabin was located right next door to Tavern on the Bay which was HQ for our fishing tournament. Roy and his wife were great and the 6 day stay was fantastic!

    The property and hosts (Denise, Roy and Otto) were tremendous! Cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Perfect location and the fishing was great, our stay was much too short! Looking forward to our trip next year. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy nature and loves fishing

    The cabin was clean with a clear view and access of the lake, the property owners were great, our puppy had a great time learning to swim. The living room was extremely narrow and hard to maneuver around with 2 people and a puppy, but there were big windows to take in the view. Beds were comfortable, kitchen equipped with all the essentials including heat and cooling, it was quiet at night. I would recommend this to anyone who's visit is primarily for fishing or just desiring spending their time on the lake as there is not much beach space. There is ample dock space and a nice pontoon boat to rent by the day. Dogs being welcome as long as they are controlled was a huge plus factor for us as was the convenient tavern/eatery next door.
