We had to call the host to get in, which made for a rough start. It was raining, and we had no key until we contacted him to get the lockbox code. However, when we called, we got a quick response. When we got there, there was no firewood for the fireplace, and the furnace didn't work. It was 60 degrees in the unit when we got there, so we went and bought some wood. The host came over that evening and tried to get the furnace going; he got it going the next day and supplied more firewood. Like I said, a bit of a rough start. But the cabin was charming, and we had a great stay the next four days. If you plan to cook during your stay, bring your own charcoal, spices, oil... it's a fun, little old cabin in the woods. We liked it a lot.

The perfect winter North Shore escape. The space is cozy, charming, and incredibly well-stocked—the firewood was plentiful, and reading beside the fire made for the perfect end to cold snowy days skiing along the Gunflint and exploring Grand Marais. Hosts were wonderful. We’ll definitely be back.

Had a great time staying at Cedar cabin! The kids (ages 3 and 5) loved the games, deck, and fireplace and it was really cozy. The hosts were so accommodating and friendly. Location was so close to great hiking and to Grand Marais for some town activities!

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time staying here! The place was very clean and cozy! However, the bedroom was a little chilly here in January in the -10 degree temps. The space heater definitely helped. This cabin is in a great location near cascade river state park. We hiked to Lookout Mountain and got a wonderful view of the winter landscape. It’s not too far from civilization… the town nearby had a general store, coffee shop, etc. Check in and checkout were super easy. I recommend this cabin to any couple!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We moved here from Chicago in 2013 looking to settle down in the North Woods and start a family. Our love of nature was a driving force. We were always trying to vacate the big city for camping and hiking excursions, so we decided that before we tried for children it would be great to put down roots somewhere very outdoor focused, so that our hopeful children would grow up surround by nature.

Danielle was born and raised in Minnesota and couldn’t wait to get back “home.” Spending time on the North Shore from the time she was 2, it always held a special place in her heart. Carl was born and raised in Ohio, but fell in love with the area on a visit in 2012.

We got married on the shore of Lake Superior shortly after moving here, bought our first home two years later, and were happy to welcome our first child in to the world in 2016! It’s been an incredible journey since we moved to the North Woods and the opportunity to become business owners has just added to the adventure.

We are so grateful to call these cottages ours, and will continue to put our time and efforts into improving on what is already here and so lovely.

We hope you enjoy your time here!
