Wolfe's Den: Lakefront 3-bedroom Cabin On Wakemup Narrows Lake Vermilion MN
This lakeside pet-friendly 3-bedroom cabin is located on Wakemup Narrows convenient to both east and west ends of Lake Vermilion. It was lovingly built by our family in the 1960's and 70's.
Walk about a minute from the cabin’s front door down the short staircase or the slight path to the lake and guest dock. Or hang out on the attached deck for great sunsets, Northern Lights or simply enjoying the local wildlife including soaring bald eagles and loons fishing in the channel.
You'll delight in this licensed and inspected cozy cabin's amenities including potable water, central air conditioning and heating plus ceiling fans to ensure your comfort, free WiFi and a crackling wood-burning fireplace (firewood provided).
The cabin features Northwoods-themed bedrooms with a king in Bald Eagle Bedroom 1, two sets of custom-built pine bunkbeds in Forest Animals Bedroom 2 and a hand-made pine double bed in Fishing Bedroom 3.
If your goal is fun on the water, the property has sufficient dock space for 2 boats up to ~22ft long. It also has a small sandy beach between docks and its own unmotorized fleet: a tube for tubing, 2 water bikes, 2 regular kayaks, an inflatable kayak, a paddle boat, noodles and floating one-person rafts. Beach towels and extra life jackets are available.
If it’s raining, never fear, you’re covered with a selection of games, puzzles, a DVD player with a video library, craft supplies, books for both adults and children and 2 TVs with Roku for streaming your favorite shows.
Amenities for fishing enthusiasts include plenty of parking for up to 4 total vehicles (cars + trucks + trailers), a trailer dolly, a power outlet at the dock, a fish cleaning station with running water inside the boathouse, a small refrigerator in the boathouse and an extra freezer in the cabin for your catch (if you need more space than the regular freezer). The guest dock is visible from Polley’s Landing which is about 2min away and has on-water gas for boats.
The well-stocked kitchen has plenty of counter space to prepare your favorite meals, offering a full-sized stove, oven and refrigerator / freezer plus a microwave and more than enough cookware, utensils, dishes and small electric appliances than you're likely to need (or so past guests tell us).
If you’re in the mood for outdoor cooking, fire up the propane grill, charcoal grill or smoker (yes, we have all 3). Or gather around the fire pit to roast marshmallows (grilling forks, pie irons and fire starters provided).
The tiled bathroom includes a flush toilet, shower, sink and large mirrored vanity with plenty of room for toiletries. The cabin also provides essentials including bed linens, plenty of towels, basic soaps, blow dryer and paper products.
