About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Secluded Forest Retreat With The Little Devil Track River Running Through.

Open May - November this is a wilderness cabin with beaver, eagles, mink, moose, and silence. We are surrounded by forest all around and our two neighbors are rarely heard from or seen at all. The small river is accessible right out your front door, and kids like to splash, catch and net things!
But so many things to do beckon beyond the cabin property it's almost overwhelming. The Lake Superior Hiking Trail (which runs from Duluth to Canada) is very nearby. Devils Track Lake, a rather large lake has good fishing and swimming is down the road a couple of miles. The galleries, food and music in 'town' are extraordinary. Grand Marais really has become quite a hub for artists of all types. The North House Folk School is a one of a kind craftshop with adult classes and the Gunflint Tavern features local and national talent in a funky intimate atmosphere.
Almost half of the people who stay at our cabin are repeat visitors. When you read our guestbook you can see the fun (and quiet relaxation) unfold for so many, rain or shine.

Secluded getaway
We had a wonderful long weekend in this cozy cabin tucked away in the woods, but still a quick drive to town and lots of great hiking trails. One day it rained, but we were happy to sit by the fire, play games, and watch the rain come down through the big windows. This was our second stay at this cabin and we’d come back again!

Ecletic Cabin in the Woods
A serene spot to explore the North Shore from. Great art, comfy and homey furniture and everything you need (including a wide selection of books and DVD's plus a piano) to make a vacation getaway that is memorable.

Peaceful Getaway
So quiet! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch in the mornings reading books, with the creek babbling in the background. Kitchen was well stocked, linens were nice. Great stereo system. Clean. Easy to go into Grand Marais which was also a plus

Our family enjoyed our first stay and came back this year. It feels like coming home to your family cabin for a summer break. Kids loved paddling in the pond. Brought happy memories from our last stay. Chris is responsive to questions and very accommodating. We would love to come back for another family getaway.
