Snowmobile Access, Ice Fishing - Bright & Serene Cabin Overlooking Shagawa Lake
At the top of a rolling hill, surrounded by 20 private acres, sits a beautiful year-round one-bedroom cabin. Built by one of Ely’s top craftsmen, every detail blends a rustic setting with modern comfort, creating a warm and inviting retreat. A stunning wall of windows fills the cabin with sunshine. Thunder rolls overhead during summer storms, and snow falls softly outside in winter—while you stay cozy inside, feeling completely connected to nature. It’s truly a romantic place to stay.
The kitchen is a pleasure to use, featuring a Bosch dishwasher, 5-burner gas range, extra-large refrigerator, and plenty of dishes and cookware—everything you need for cooking and entertaining.
The full bathroom is located downstairs and includes a large shower, plenty of towels, and toiletries for your use. A dining table for four is perfect for meals or games, and a sliding door opens to a small patio with beautiful lake views.
Upstairs, the spacious bedroom loft features a king-size bed and a hot tub, where you can relax while taking in peaceful views of the lake. A private balcony off the loft is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee in quiet solitude.
A sofa bed in the downstairs living room provides additional sleeping space and creates a cozy area for reading, watching TV, or simply unwinding.
Enjoy the outdoors with plenty of nearby trails for hiking and exploring. Evenings are perfect around the fire pit, and the property offers ample parking with room to turn around, making access easy. There is plenty of space for trailers, including boats or snowmobiles.
Bring your boat! Down the long hill and to the left on the main road is the dock area, where your own dock and parking space await. The lake offers abundant fishing, and just a few miles down the road, The Lady Bug Resort provides pontoon rentals and a boat launch.
In the winter, this cabin is a true getaway for cold-weather enthusiasts. You can snowmobile directly from the cabin, and the lake offers excellent ice fishing throughout the winter months.
Located just a few miles before Ely on Highway 169, you’re close to one of Minnesota’s most charming towns. Ely sits on the edge of the Boundary Waters and bustles all summer with canoe enthusiasts. You’ll find everything you need—restaurants, grocery stores, shops, and outfitters—just a short drive away.
This cabin is ideal for couples, families, fishermen, and outdoor explorers. Come rest, relax, and create lasting memories.
