The Property

Located on Shagawa Lake (known for great Walleye fishing) with 238 feet of private shoreline in Ely proper, this full log family cabin is perfect for hosting family & friends. Designed to be used all year around, the cabin is a great escape in the winter for those who like to ice fish, cross-country ski, snowshoe, snow mobile, dog sled, read books and/or play board games. In the warmer seasons, the day's adventures can be a mix of hiking, paddling, swimming, biking, fishing, 4-wheeling, picking berries and exploring the town. Anytime of the year you can begin or end your day with a traditional sauna experience! This is the perfect place to call your home away from home.
