About this property

Sturgeon Lake cabin with great views

Authentic MN cabin with great lake views! Best of both worlds - a wooded setting with beautiful lakeshore, private dock and great swimming. From the cabin you have an elevated panoramic view looking southwest over Sturgeon Lake with all day sun and evening sunsets. Outdoor space includes two decks and a fire pit area with firewood included. Gas grill and patio table on the cabin deck. You will see and hear the loons - and bald eagles flying by and deer in the front yard is also a regular occurrence. Canoe, kayaks and paddle board are available to use at no cost. Guests are also welcome to bring their own boat - the boat landing is very close by. Wi-Fi and Netflix. Summer and holiday weekends require a 3 night minimum. 2 night minimum spring and fall. Ranch style cabin from the 70s, ceiling beams and original oak wood floors. Kitchen and dining area opens out into the large living room - all with views of the lake and trees that surround you. 2 bedrooms both have nice queen beds. Third bedroom is a sleeping loft with two twin beds. Off the kitchen there is a built-in bunkbed alcove with two twin beds. The sleeping loft and bunkbeds are most suitable for kids or young adults. 1 bathroom with a tub and shower. Dining table has a leaf and extra chairs to seat 6. Sorry - the stone fireplace is not currently operational. Max occupancy is 8 people.
The cabin is well outfitted with nice furniture and all the basic kitchen necessities that you will need (just no dishwasher, but it's a cabin). Kitchen has a coffee machine and coffee grounds, washcloths and towels, and the basic cooking and grilling tools. There is also a gas grill with available for your use. Plenty of bathroom and bedroom linen also available (just bring your own beach towels). There is a TV with numerous over-the-air channels, Netflix, and a DVD player with a small library of movies. There are a few decks of cards and a small collection of board-games, puzzles and books. Ample yard space to play games. $65 pet fee for ONE small/medium size dog that do NOT shed. Add a pet when completing the number of guests. Sorry, no other pets are allowed. You may not want to leave this relaxing property, but if you do, very close by is General Andrews State park, Moose Lake State Park, and many other trails systems for ATVs, hiking, snowmobiling, and other outdoor activities. A short drive north is Jay Cooke State Park or a short drive south is Banning State Park. For a great meal and drinks, head to Doc's Restaurant a few miles away on the other side of the lake. We live close by and always available by cell phone to assist our guests if you need anything during your stay. We accept either the damage insurance or a fully refundable $500 damage deposit. If when booking your reservation you are only provided the insurance option, but prefer to provide a $500 refundable damage deposit, send me a message so I can provide you the refundable damage deposit option.

The property is accurately described in the write-up; the bunk beds are in a small cubby where a washer and dryer used to be. The kitchen is small but served our needs for a family of 4. The fishing was wonderful, we rented the Pontoon for the week and it was a big hit! Eric was quick to respond to all questions and check in was easy. One easy thing that could be added is another mirror bedsides the one in the bathroom, sharing one bathroom is fine but doing your hair without a mirror is a little difficult:)

Great Family Vacation!

Very nice, we love the simplicity of it, and the older style of the cabin. Our family very much appreciated the free use of paddle boards and kayaks. Had an awesome time on the pontoon and cought a lot of fish. Great vacation!

Comfortable, clean, and amazing views

What a beautiful property. We stayed here as it was close to where my son was getting married. And after spending two nights with amazing views and clean comfortable beds my wife and I decided we will need to bring the whole family back just to enjoy for a getaway weekend. I highly recommend staying here.

Annual family vacation

Great little cabin. The only issue we had was there wasn’t enough hot water for all five of us to shower. If you have an elderly parent you are taking,the stairs we’re a bit much to get to the lake front. Great fire pit with plenty of wood and any questions I had were answered promptly. Would highly recommend this place!

Total Tranquility

A comfortable cabin in a stunning setting - perhaps the best you will find within 90 minutes (at my driving speed) of the Twin Cities, with a friendly and available host, kayaks canoes and paddleboards to hand, and natural beauty in every direction. Am recommending to all my family and friends. Was our first time in Minnesota, and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Perfect spot on the lake!

We had a great time at this cabin! The beautiful view of the lake from the large window was breathtaking every morning. We loved sitting down by the lake and paddleboarding and kayaking around the water. There were lots of places to sit and hang out outside, we especially liked eating outside at the table and looking out at the lake. Everything was clean and comfortable inside the cabin. It's only about 40 minutes from Duluth so it was easy to drive into Duluth for an evening as well. This cabin was everything we were looking for for a relaxing bachelorette weekend with friends!

Cozy comfort with a great view

This was a great cabin to stay with family for a wedding in the area. The view is terrific, and the kitchien/dining/living room has an open airy feel, which makes it great for visiting. It's always a bummer to pay a lot of fees and then then find stuff not clean--crumbs on end tables, mantel, dining table; and microwave really dirty both inside and out. Other than that, we loved our stay and would definitely recommend it!

Ideal Minnesotan summer getaway

Perfect getaway for our family of 5. Eric was an exceptional host and very responsive. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone who is looking for the true Minnesotan summer experience. There’s no AC which was exactly what we needed to stay outside, on or in the lake and to spend time together. We didn’t turn the tv on once. The experience was just what we needed to reconnect and recharge. We loved it!

Mid-week gathering of friends

The lake is beautiful, the cabin is a good very basic set-up. The sleeping beds are good for 4 adults. The other beds, in the loft and front closet, are really for children. The long steps down to the lakeside are very uneven and the railings are weak where they are attached and missing for one full flight of stairs. The shoreline is beautiful and the dock was great. The landscaping is beautiful. Parking is very easy. Easy drive from the twin-cities.

Beautiful Views

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Views from the cabin are picturesque. Very clean and in good condition. The owner, Eric, is very responsive and helpful. The 50 gallon water heater only regenerates once a day so we tried to conserve but with 6 adults staying, we usually ran out of hot water before the end of the day. The trade off for the view is there are about 40 steps down to the lake. The access to the loft is a sturdy built-in ladder, so best suited for older kids or young adults who are able to climb up and down the ladder.
