Wolf Cabin is Wilderness Wind's smallest and most secluded cabin near the shore of Armstrong Lake. This adorable one bedroom cabin with kitchenette and kitchen table is at the end of the road and is quiet and private but has access to all the amenities of the Wilderness Wind resort. The kitchen sink has a water cooler to be filled from outdoor spigot and a half refrigerator, astove, and a microwave. Hot showers, lavatory sinks, and latrine toilets are a short walk though lovely birch woods, in the bathhouse. Down the grassy path in front is the swimming area with lakeside seating for sunset viewing, access to canoes and kayaks, and a fire pit for bonfires. This cabin is a special intimate place for a couple looking for a romantic getaway from which to base hiking and biking on the Mesabi Trail and day trip canoeing in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Shopping for apparel, outdoor gear, and local art can be found in Ely as well as some really fine quality dining experiences. Want to get away alone and get in touch with nature and your quiet side This a great solo cabin for journaling, photography day trips, working on art or planning projects, catching up on your reading, or just plain relaxing in a beautiful natural setting.

    Our place was more than we expected, so many thoughtful little add-ons, it’s a beautiful lake and property. Our kids were camping near by at Bear Head State Park and got rained out. Jay learned of that and txt me to say they could stay in an extra space he had instead of their wet tent - which they did! Jay was so thoughtful and generous, we very much appreciated his gesture. Highly recommend Wilderness Wind and look forward to coming back.

    Beautiful, peaceful lakeshore resort! Jay was there to greet us and he even built a fire for us every night. No extra charge for the wood. Amenities include canoes, kayaks, and even a paddle boat! Life jackets are provided as well but I'd bring my own to ensure a good fit and comfort. We will return if we stay in the Ely area again!

    We love staying in the Wolf cabin because it is a little more isolated from the other cabins. It is so cute and has everything you could need for a cozy weekend in the wilderness! We always have a wonderful time with Jay who manages the property. Can't wait to come back next year!!

    We had a last minute change of plans and needed next day lodging. The Wolf Cabin fit the bill and then some. Has a wonderful community intention but if looking for solitude, that's available too. Jay could not have been nicer. Just a few things to note: the bed is noisy, the fridge was turned down before we arrived--turn to a 3 or 4 when you get there, it's well loved and lived in cabin. It is surprisingly well stocked! We would definitely return!

    The cabin was simply beautiful. Clean, equipped with a queen bed, propane stove with full oven. The mini fridge had a separate freezer. There was drinking water when we arrived. A sweet surprise was Jay calling and checking us in as we were on our way. Jay also had a fire our last evening which was a great way to visit. Friendly, respectful. Love Lulu as well. We will definitely be back. A little piece of heaven surrounded by calm vegetation and wildlife. You won’t regret it.

    Had a wonderful time staying in the wolf cabin. It had everything we needed and the cabin and bathrooms are incredibly clean. The property is simple and easy going. We had a wonderful time kayaking and canoeing on the lake. It’s exactly what we were looking for. Thanks for a wonderful stay and we hope to return next summer.

    This was such a wonderful property. Right on the shores of Lake Armstrong, there were canoes and a paddle boat available, life vests, and plenty of wood for the fire pit. While each cabin was separate and had plenty of peace and quiet there were also chances to sit around and laugh/talk with other guests. We had a great time and are looking forward to coming back!

    I love staying at Wilderness Wind, and this stay was no different. For me, it's the perfect balance of rustic charm and convenience. I enjoy the electricity and stove in the cabin, but I also like the shared bathrooms and group campfire that give it a camp feel. I felt very safe as a solo traveler, and I had a good time trying out one of the kayaks that are available for guests.
