About this property

Cabin With Deck Hammock & Projector Screen

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway in a Maple & Cedar forest.

Let your inner chef out on the Professional Wolf Gas Range in the kitchen. Sip coffee on the deck, put your feet up by the fireplace, unwind in the Jacuzzi tub, take a nap in the massive deck hammock or catch the brilliance of the stars and maybe even the rare Northern Lights.

4 Minutes to Lake Caribou (1.7 mi) and 12 minutes to Lutsen Mountains Ski Area (7.7 mi). Close to hiking trails and snowmobile trails.

Welcome to our 1500-square-foot cabin in the forest. It can accommodate up to 6 guests in two private bedrooms furnished with memory foam beds, one king and one queen. The "3rd bedroom" is a king-sized bed located in the downstairs family room.

Looking to work from home? The internet is faster than a frightened timber chicken jacked up on caffeine (... that's slang for "Grouse," which you might see in the woods up here). There is a desk with a leather office chair that adjusts to a standing desk.

Looking to NOT work from home? We have plenty of relaxing things to do:

29' Deck hammock for you and 5 friends! (or just you) Chill, watch the clouds go by, or the trees sway in the breeze. Catch the stars at night or maybe even the Northern Lights. Or catch a nap, naps are great. I recommend naps. The deck is high in the woods, you'll feel like you're in a tree house.

130" Projector screen, with an Apple TV for streaming or connecting your own apple devices with AirPlay. (No cable). An additional HDMI hook-up in case you're bringing something to hook up like a gaming counsel.

Slide into a relaxing bubble bath in the jacuzzi tub in the upstairs bathroom.

Grab a hammock and string one up in the woods or under the deck. We have four.

Have cold feet? Leave your slippers at home, the entire cabin has in-floor radiant heat (Upstairs & Downstairs) to keep toes nice and toasty.

In the kitchen, you'll find a Wolf gas range for cooking fancy things (there's a microwave and toaster oven for making not-so-fancy things too). All the silverware, pots, pans, plates, measuring cups, and utensils you need for the basics. And Ice. Cold ice, because what good is warm ice?

Mix something ornate at the coffee bar, or a regular cup of joe.

Put your feet up and relax by the fireplace with a custom hand-hewn log mantle, with cool lighting (at least we think it's cool).

The open floor plan and large windows let in a lot of light with great views of the forest.

Hey, we're legal!

Other things to note
Stairs -
The spiral staircase is quite narrow and may be difficult to use for children, elderly, or those with mobility issues. There is a baby gate installed at the top of the stairs which you are welcome to use. You can walk around the cabin and access the lower level outside from a walk-out patio door during the non-winter months (May-Oct). There is a bathroom on each floor.

WiFi and Cell Service -
The cabin does have WiFi. There is no cell service in this area for AT&T and T-Mobile. Verizon has a very limited signal in some pockets.

Road Access & Snow -
The property is accessed by a single-lane gravel road. There are a few spots along the road to pull over if there is an oncoming car. Please pull off to the side if you see an oncoming vehicle.

You will need a 4-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle in the winter months, the gravel road & driveway are plowed only if there is at least 3-4" of snowfall. Take it slow, the roads can get quite icey, and there is a small hill at the end of the driveway. Cell Phone service is limited in this area if you need to call a tow truck.

You may need to shovel a short path from the driveway to the front door in the winter months. (Please note the deck is not shoveled in the winter, but there is a shovel if you'd like to use it)

Parking -
There are 3-4 parking spots at the end of the driveway right near the house. Turning around in the driveway is tight so we don't recommend it with a trailer Watch out for the well when turning around which is located alongside the driveway.

Garbage Service -
Because this is a remote service area, you will need to take all your trash with you at the end of your stay. There is a local place you can drop it off 4.7 miles away for $5/bag if you do not want to take it back home with you. We do provide trash bags.

Guest Records -
In order to comply with state lodging laws, guests will be asked to provide their name, address, and vehicle make & license plate number of all guests after booking. The state/county will ask us for these in case of an emergency such as a forest fire where evacuation is needed. Thank you!

Fantastic Treetop Cabin
We were absolutely blown away by this incredible cabin. There is not one negative thing to say. Mike is probably the best host we’ve encountered, he was attentive, responsive and flexible. The house itself is gorgeous, clean and cozy. Everything has been thought of and was so comfortable. This cabin has the COOLEST deck ever and we got so much use out of the hammock. We took naps and read our books in the fall sunlight and stargazed at night. We even saw the northern lights! Downstairs is a massive projector screen and cozy couch where we felt like we were at a movie theater. The location couldn’t be better. You’re close to Grand Marais, and have tons of trails around (some within minutes). The Lutsen gondola was just down the road and is a must do to see the best view of fall colors. We could go on and on and adored this magical cabin so much. We can’t wait for our next visit! If you’re on the fence definitely book this place!

About the host

I work as a carpenter and snow removal operator in the Twin Cities, MN.

Why they chose this property

We love the natural beauty of the North Shore - the beautiful mild summers and brilliant fall colors.

We all need a creative outlet sometimes and I want a place where I could build some unique things. Most of the furniture in the cabin I built in my workshop.
