Charming Lakeside Cabin on Bear Island Lake W/Dock, WiFi, Firepit & Much More!

Located on Bear Island Lake and nestled in the serene woodlands of Northern Minnesota, this cozy 3- bedroom, 1 bathroom family cabin is just 15 minutes from Ely, MN — a charming town and entry point to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. Open year-round, this cabin offers all you need to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Upon entering the cabin, you are greeted by lake views from the large windows in the main area. This space combines living room, dining room and kitchen. The large stone fireplace in the living room is great for cozying up in the evenings, playing games, or reading a good book. The dining room offers a large table with seating for six. The well-equipped kitchen has all the essentials for preparing home-cooked meals, and the private well supplies ample clean, cold water from a depth of 365 feet.

With three bedrooms—one in the main level with two twin beds and two upstairs (one with a queen bed and another with three twin beds)—plus a full bathroom on the main level with a tub/shower combo, this cabin accommodates families or groups with ease.

This northwest-facing property boasts beautiful sunsets over the lake, an excellent view of the Northern Lights, a sandy area for swimming and water sports, as well as a dock to moor your boat (boat not provided with rental). There is a firepit and a picnic table by the lake that are perfect for that get-together bonfire! Bring your fishing gear to catch northern and walleyed pike, bass, sunfish (bluegills) and crappies. In the winter, enjoy local cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, dog-sledding, ice fishing, and more.

This cabin is ready to be your family’s home base for outdoor adventure and peaceful relaxation. We look forward to hosting you for a memorable stay!
