Wonderful property & thoughtful host

Property was clean, nice with added extras like basic spices and oil (which we had forgotten) in the kitchen, shampoo & conditioner bottles in case we needed them and easy to use door locks & electronics. The layout was really nice for 7 of us (and 1 dog) to be together or spread out as needed. Wonderful place to stay!

Amazing property!

This was the perfect location for our family retreat! Very close to Ely and and its norther MN hospitality as well as within reasonable driving distance to state parks and Voyagers national park! I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. Not to mention, the owners left out some toys for our toddler to help with the location transition (and we forgot toys...); so thoughtful!

Wonderful home! It was so clean, everything was thoughtfully labeled and we had all we needed to make our stay comfortable. Loved the selection of games, the png pong table had a lot of use, the outdoor space was beautiful. The location was ideal, close to everything but while at the home we felt miles away from the busy world. Thank you for letting us share your beautiful and thoroughly clean house.

About the host

Hosted by Kelsey Pearse

Host profile image
Hello! I'm Kelsey. My husband Brad and I have a 5 year old son, a dog, and own a small business here in Ely! Brad and I met while working as crew on a privately owned super yacht, on which we traveled the world, so we are no stranger to hosting and preparing for a top-notch experience. I am originally from Rochester, MN and Brad is originally from Perth, Western Australia. We love calling Ely home and planting our roots in this beautiful place. Some of our favorite things to do here is spending time on the lakes, pontooning, kayaking, snowmobiling, shed hunting for moose and deer antlers, and cross-country skiing to name a few. I also have to mention another of my favorite things to do in Ely, during the warmer months, is the Ely Farmers Market in Whiteside Park. Tuesdays from 5-7pm. There are food trucks, fresh baked goods, locally-made jewelry, fresh flowers, etc, plus the playground for kids. Great evening of family and community fun.
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your time here better! Generally, we keep a low profile unless reached out to.
We are sincerely happy to host you!!
