A calm and secluded cottage in the woods. Next to the BWCA!

An approximate 45 minute drive from Grand Marais on the Gunflint Trail brings you to a dirt road and to this secluded cottage. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the northwoods. Observe the stars, planets and the milky way in one the International Dark Skies sanctuaries.
Come in to a cozy living room with breathtaking views of the woods and lake. Watch birds, squirrels, and other wildlife from inside its double patio glass doors and be AWE-mazed!
A short walk towards the lake brings you to a set of stairs and to the dock. Spend time just being in the presence of nature, fishing or take a kayak or canoe trip and explore the lake and its magic.

The stunning and equipped modern kitchen offers all the necessary items to make your own meals to be enjoyed around the large island, table or outside on the deck.

The upstairs has one inviting large bedroom with a queen bed and a daybed/set of twin beds for extra sleeping space.
An open family/TV room is also upstairs with a full size futon and a small futon chair for even more sleeping space or just hanging out watching TV.
A half bathroom is located on the main floor and a large full bathroom is located on the second level.

This adorable and serene retreat invites guests to relax and recharge in a peaceful setting. We hope you'll enjoy your stay at our cottage.
