This was the perfect place for us to stay! We appreciated being able to have a long weekend vacation to stay with our dogs at a time the colors are optimal. It was very easy to travel around the North Shore both north and south. The amenities were great and make it a nice place to stay year round. We hope to be able to stay again!

Cozy cabin with all the essentials. Great location with proximity to trails along the Beaver Bay / Silver Bay portion of the North Shore. Cabin is not on Lake Superior, and far enough away from Hwy 61 that you do not hear the road much. Easy walk from cabin to Gitchi Gami bike trail. Cute barrel sauna, very clean cabin, easy instructions to enter and check out.
