Welcome toThe White Iron Heritage! where coming together happens naturally.

We enjoyed everything about our stay! Our host, Jeff, was most welcoming and thorough in preparing our beautiful cabin. You can easily get to Ely for supplies, yet have a true north woods Minnesota experience at the cabin on White Iron Lake. Highly recommended!

The interior of the cabin is quite nice and quite cool. Awesome cabin and awesome host!

All was good, fire place needed cleaning and could use a new fireplace grate.

We had a great stay! The cabin is cozy and charming.

Nice cabin in a quiet and peaceful location. Perfect size for a couple. We had 2 small children, so there wasnt much extra space but it worked just fine. Host did an excellent job making sure we were taken care of.

A wonderful time with peace and serenity.

Nice place

Very nice secluded cabin, small, just one room. Very nice host. Brought wild flowers during our stay. Great area with a lot of things to do. Bonfire pit. Brought boat and lake is beautiful. Bring bug spray.

Cabin was clean, very comfortable, well stocked dry birch firewood, and the ambiance was perfect for my stay. The VRBO posted price per night noted that all fees were included in the price.

My husband and I had the most amazing week here! Went fishing every day. Caught loads of fish around the lake. Even caught several off the dock, including a keeper walleye, perch, bass and northern! Sat and watched the northern lights from the dock one night. Grilled some steaks, went kayaking, saw lots of eagles and loons. Had a few campfires and enjoyed a cozy night by the fireplace. Jeff was great at accomodating anything we needed. He was quick to respond to emails. He was very respectful of our privacy. Enjoyed visits from Honzo the dog- very well behaved! We will definitely stay here again!!!!

Perfect in all ways

Very peaceful location in a historic log cabin with just enough modern elements for a relaxing get away.

We really enjoyed our stay. Loved the peace and quiet and general lack of people around us. Loved hearing the loons. Fishing off the dock was great! Quaint cabin, well furnished and very clean. Thanks Jeff!

pleasant, comfortable, relaxing. jeff an iconic outdoorsman graciously provided content to areas of interest for us then respectfully let us discover our own adventure. walleye from the lake, huckleberries from the island--just a few of the finds. ...one picture sums it up.

This cabin is exactly as you see it. No tv- no ac- no problem! Quaint with everything you would need. We took the boat out and explored a bit if the lake.Jeff is very knowledgeable about the area.

Very nice rustic cabin. A peaceful getaway.

Lovely cabin. Great area to enjoy both the indoors and outdoors, including exploring the lake. Had a great stay!

Jeff was a great host and his cabin was SO quaint and clean. Beautiful flower touches too. Would definitely stay again!

Peaceful and relaxing, perfect little getaway. Very nice host

Cabin was cozy, clean, and eclectic. We enjoyed reading the varied books, magazines, and newspapers in the cabin. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. Enjoyed sitting on the dock and riding in the boat. My husband even caught a few pike. Cabin was conveniently located for taking care of business in Ely. Host, Jeff, was a pleasure.

We loved staying here. Jeff is so friendly and helpful and the cabin is lovely.

The cabin is charming and comfortable. Jeff was very knowledgeable about the area and was very accommodating. We’d definitely go back!

We arrived at 9:30pm on the agreed-upon day to find the cabin occupied. We texted the owner but did not hear back until after noon the next day, by which time we had been forced to make other lodging plans. He apologized, but too little, too late.

The cabin is everything you could need! It is decorated! It is cushioned! It was a great stay!

Staying at Jeff's cabin was nothing short but great! It's cozy and rustic—but with a bath, running water, heat, and a kitchen. Perfect to bring kids and get them to enjoy the outdoors when it gets to cold for rent camping. (My 7 and 4 y.o. heard the wolves howl and caught a 30 inch Northern right off the dock.) Jeff is a great host who accommodates to all your needs. We'll definitely be back!

Very nice cabin. Had everything we needed. We tend to use these as bases and are usually gone most of the day. Clear directions for checking out would be helpful. Had a wonderful stay

We had a wonderful time. The cabin is even more charming and welcoming in person than in the photos. We are almost disappointed we had too many things to do during our time in Ely ... we would have loved to spend more quiet time in the cabin. It was clean and tidy, had everything we could have wanted or needed, and had a very homey feel. Thank you! We will be back!

We had a wonderful time. The cabin is delightfully rustic but well appointed. So we were wanting for nothing and we’re entertained by all the many decorations. My wife and I loved the cabin. Enchanting is a good word. Jeff, the owner was wonderful. He lives nearby so he is available for questions and help. He gave us a boat tour of the huge lake and allowed us to use a canoe and a small boat with a 15 hp engine. We used the canoe multiple times and caught many different species of fish: pike, perch, blue gill, brook trout. The cabin is about 100 paces from the lake, so fishing is easy to do for just an hour or two, or the entire day. Jeff has a lovely camp dog too! Honsu is his name. Never barked. Overall, great stay. Thanks Jeff!

Great location on White Iron Lake. The cabin was quaint. It had everything we needed. Loved Hanzo, Jeff’s dog. Jeff was a wealth knowledge regarding the area.

Quiet rustic cabin in the woods. Very cozy

Not necessarily private as others have stated, as owners home is close, but it is quiet and peaceful. My husband and I and our 10 year old fit perfectly in the small cabin which is beautifully decorated in an old fashioned, pre-technology style. We loved the boat, fishing off the dock, the fire pit, and exploring Ely!

Loved the cabin. Peaceful getaway. Jeff is a friendly and respectful host. Honzo is a great dog …thank you!

This cabin was perfect in every way. Cozy, charming and had everything we needed. The weather was perfect for me.

We really enjoyed our 3 nights at the WIH. Our young dog was occasionally over-distracted by Hanzo, Jeff’s dog, but Hanzo is a very good boy and we all did fine :) lived the water access and location near to Ely and the boundary waters. Will keep in mind for a later visit.

We loved every single thing about our stay at Heritage Haus! The cabin itself is so charming and comfortable. Beautiful layout for a small cabin, a very comfortable bed and sleeping area, exceedingly well stocked kitchen area, excellent bathroom with shower, and a living area including two small beds that double as sofas. Plenty of nice linens for our stay. Gorgeous art and furnishings consistent with an older, well maintained cabin. There is lots of interesting reading material about the area and its history as well as many maps of the area. The host provided everything we might need for a comfortable stay; he said you only need to bring what you want to eat and drink, that was very accurate! The host is so accommodating, he was available and had lots of information but certainly not intrusive. His dog was a pleasure, especially since we had left ours at home (we flew to Minnesota). Outside there is a fire ring and seating for four as well as two barbecues and plenty of firewood. The cabin is located on the edge of Cold Iron lake, about a 50 foot setback and about a 10 minute drive from downtown Ely. He even offered us a boat ride around the lake when we didn't take advantage of the canoe or the motor boat. We would most definitely choose to stay here in the future!
