The cabin is set in 120 private acres which will be yours to roam while you are visiting. With 1500 feet of native lake shore, you might not encounter another person the duration of your stay! We have transformed one of the first cabins on the lake into our own personal hide-away. Just 30 feet from the lake, you will feel like your sleeping on the water! Equipped with big-screen TV, cable, and high-speed internet. This property isn't for everyone, but if your idea of vacation includes the words glamping, secluded, get-away-from-it-all, quiet, and private, than it might be for you!
The cabin has a sleeping loft with two twin xl beds that can be pushed together for a king. Downstairs there is a nice sized sectional couch with an ottoman that converts into a cot. There is a small kitchenette downstairs that includes a microwave and a refrigerator. Bathroom facilities are primitive (i.e. there is an outhouse). After a long day on the trails or in the lake, relax in the wood-fired sauna. We have set up a unique deck with a hot tub and solar shower available in the summer months.
We have 2 kayaks and a paddle board for your use while there. If you tire of the lake and lake activities, there are trails throughout the property that you will be able to explore during your stay. If you have a UTV or snowmobile, you will find endless routes on the over 500 miles of trails in the areas. The cabin is less than 10 miles from the North Country National Scenic Trailhead on Hwy 113, and equi-distance (about a 30 min drive) from Itasca State Park and Tamarac National wildlife preserve.
Please note that the cabin itself is about a 1/4 mile drive from the main road. There is a steep incline to drive the last 500 ft down to the cabin. Those with rear-wheel drive should consider parking at the top of the hill and walking to the shoreline. The cabin is primitive, and you will need to bring your own drinking water. There is an electric pellet grill onsite. Unless otherwise arranged, you will need to bring your own bedding and pack out your garbage. In doing this, I will waive all cleaning fees.
***The hot tub is available in the winter, but please only consider this cabin for winter rental if you have appropriate snow equipment - like a 4-wheeler with tracks or snowmobiles. You will NOT be able to drive down the hill in the winter. This will mean you will pack in your belongings for a minimum of a 1/4 mile. ***
