Ely, Minnesota
This peaceful home sits 65 feet from the crystal clear waters of Burntside Lake. Only 10 minutes from town, the home is perfect for enjoying the lake year-round.
The home was recently renovated and features internet, satellite TV, new flooring, new furniture, an updated bathroom, patio, and dock. The lake area has a wide sand beach, two docks, a kayak, and a canoe for use. In the winter, the house is located just around the corner from the snowmobile trail. Life is good.
On a sandy shoreline, the property is uniquely flat, allowing for ease of access during all seasons. The elegant, yet comfortable home is approximately 1500 sq ft and includes 2 bedrooms, a dining table for 6, modern shower, and a sleeper sofa. The kitchen and living room are an open concept, with the bathroom and laundry room are located adjacent to the kitchen. The east bedroom is larger and has a queen bed. The west bedroom is smaller and has two twin beds. The living room has a pull out sofa bed. There is fridge/ freezer for extra cooler space. We supply all your basic kitchen needs, linens, extra blankets/pillows, towels, and basic toilet items.
You will fall in love with the landscaping, dock, beach and outdoor patio. There is a patio table, grill, and several Adirondack chairs outside for your enjoyment. The lake is clear and shallow even quite a distance out from the shore. We will leave you a list of local spots we like to visit on the lake, as well as a map to the snowmobile trail.
The property faces north and overlooks the lake. When conditions are right, it is not uncommon to see northern lights. This was a year round private residence, so it well maintained and comfortable.
You can park several vehicles on site. You are 10 minutes from the Ely DQ. You will take 88 to the Echo Trail to Somero Road. Somero Road is the next left after Bass Lake Trail. If you are in need of a boat rental, let us know, we can provide referrals.
The lake setting is wonderful. The kitchen is a bit dated and could use some updating. The biggest issue was the interior still had air fresheners in it when we arrived and towels and bedding had been washed with fragrance fabric softeners. So, my wife could not sleep in the bed due to reacting to the smells. She is very sensitive to artificial fragrances.
We truly enjoyed our stay and found the cabin to have all the comforts of home made special by its Burntside Lake location. The evenings during our stay were cool enough to enjoy a lakeside campfire, a glass of fine wine and the call of the Loons at sunset....doesn't get much better than that.
We had a great few days with family. Comfortable place for us to sleep, gather and enjoy the lake. Close to Ely, easy access, yet private and so quiet! The loons sang us to sleep. We highly recommend, and we plan to return!
Beautiful property! We loved our stay. The only suggestion I have is you should consider getting a new mattress in the master bedroom. It was too soft and a bit lopsided. My neck suffered quite a bit. Everything else was quite wonderful.
Very nice romantic cabin for two people. Would be comfortable for a family of four. Will definitely consider staying again if we return to Ely area.
Wonderful long weekend. Remodeled bathroom was great!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay: the photos of the property and “cabin” do not do it justice! It sits on a quiet, peaceful part of the lake. Deer walked across the beach in the morning, ospreys glided over the water, and loons called as the sun set. The beach was sandy and shallow, and the water was the ideal temperature for swimming. The canoe and kayak lent themselves to many adventures. Our hosts were exceptionally responsive and patient with our questions, which was greatly appreciated!
Experience was great
We only spent 2 nights up north but this provided a fantastic getaway for me and the kids. The property was right on the lake and I was able to take the younger ones out on the lake in the conoe. The older ones, we rented paddle boards from an Ely Outfitter and they enjoyed taking them out on the lake. Well worth the money if you have teens as the lake location is ideal - not too much boat traffic.
It was very nice
My husband and I enjoyed a very peaceful and private time at this property! This is a beautiful spot on Burntside lake we had a lovely time.
