Log Cabin on Lake Point, Amazing Bluff Views Near Grand Marais/Gunflint/BWCA

This was a great cabin with a lot of amenities not usually found in the area. Everything was to our liking other than the noisy neighbors. They broke into our feeling of solitude well into the early morning hours. Plenty of space and a great dock for kids to jump off of. Grandkids spent every possible moment in the water! Nice to have the gas grill and yet able to reheat when need be in the microwave. Overall a great 4 days in North Woods.

The cabin is on McFarland lake on the edge of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area wilderness. Step out of the cabin and the BWCA is a short paddle or hike away. The comfort of the cabin is a warm welcome after a day of fishing or exploring. The owners, Gary and Shirley, are delightful to talk to and have a wealth of knowledge of the area that they are eager to share. The cabin is spacious, in excellent condition and well equipped. Our stay was most enjoyable and our rating is five plus stars!

My family of 6 had a wonderful stay. My teenage boys loved the upstairs area of the cabin. There’s tons to do without having to drive anywhere. You can hike groomed trails, paddle into the BWCA, or fish and swim in the crystal clear lake. The lake had 15 feet clarity which made for some awesome snorkeling. We’d love to come again. Gary and Shirley were wonderful hosts.

The kids enjoyed swimming (early July) in the warm, clear and shallow water along side the dock. Beds were comfy. The generator was far enough from the cabin not to be noisy. We rented the 2 canoes from Gary and brought one of our own. Easy paddle to John Lake in the Boundary Waters for a day trip and picnic. The generally slow fishing was more than offset by a large Northern Pike off the dock on the last evening. Gorgeous star-filled night view from the end of the dock. The lovely and haunting calls of the loons welcomed us in the morning and bid us good night.

My new wife and I had a wonderful, relaxing time at this wonderful cabin. The hosts are absolutely top notch. Gary gave us a great walk through of the property upon arrival and gave us some fantastic history on the building and the lake. We took advantage of renting their canoe and entered two different BWCA entry points and found open campsites for day trips and picnics. If you are looking for a "choose your own adventure" Northwoods stay, then look no further. This place is a gem. We will be back!
