About this property

Rustic Personal Retreat Cabin, "Sunset"

This little one-room cabin is ADORABLE! It has everything you need (and nothing you don't) for a quiet getaway to fill your soul. We're located just 30 minutes outside Duluth, MN, but when you're here you'll feel like you're in the middle of nowhere.

Here are a few things you'll want to know before you book this cabin:
- The cabin is clean, comfortable, and elegant, but still quite rustic. The cabin is available year-round, with a propane fireplace for your main source of heat. It has electricity, but no running water. In the kitchenette is a water dispenser for washing & drinking. Adjacent to the cabin is your own private low-odor outhouse that has a little heater and a light you can turn on from inside the cabin. Just a one-minute walk from the cabin is the main lodge, which has public restrooms for showers and flushing toilets.
- There is no drive-in access to this cabin. You can unload your vehicle about a one or two-minute walk from the cabin. We offer hand carts and/or utility sleds for bringing luggage to the cabin. After you've unloaded your vehicle, we'll ask you to park your car back in the parking lot along the side of the road.
- We do not allow pets or smoking in any of our cabins.
- Please watch this 4-minute tour video before reserving this cabin. The video will hopefully help give you a sense of what the cabin is like so you can decide if it's a good fit for you before you make a reservation: https://youtu.be/eydIxGUwAFw

A week in April at Camp Amnicon

We were happy to get the cabin at Camp Amnicon and had no problems during our stay. It is the off season and the weather was cool and we had a couple of rainy spells, but we hiked and watched birds each day in spite of the weather. Hiking to the Lake Superior beach was enjoyable. We had no problem carting our gear in to the "walk in" cabin. Numerous hikes, state parks, and birdwatching sites are a short drive away. Birdwatching from the cabin was productive and interesting. We hope to visit Camp Amnicon again during the off-season. I really appreciate the walk-in cabins and the distance from the highway. You can hear the breeze, birds, and distant surf of Lake Superior...the peaceful sounds of Nature.

Just as good a second time around!

This was our second stay at Camp Amnicon. We stayed in Quietude last year, but booked Sunset this year because the three new ones weren’t available. It was great!! We think we might like sunset/sunrise better because they feel much more private, and we didn’t need the bigger space of the newer cabins. So cozy - we love the fireplace!

Nice retreat

It was so peaceful and quiet. A nice place to rest. One suggestion would be to have a curtain between the bathroom and shower area to allow for some privacy.

Loved it!

My husband and I stayed for three nights and loved it! Once at Camp Amnicon, you really don’t need to go anywhere else during your trip. It has hiking trails, an amazing beach along Lake Superior where we found lots of sea glass and pretty drift wood, the coziest private cabin, and a nice private fire pit right outside the cabin. Their saying of “it has everything you need and nothing you don’t” is exactly right.

Perfect getaway in the woods!

The cabin was just as described, set back on the property a perfect distance from others. The outhouse was clean. The trail to the lake was a nice little easy hike and the beach was amazingly beautiful. The river flowing into Superior was really cool to see. The Porcupine Trail from the lake back to the lodge was a good, more difficult hike. The amenities were great, the communication was great, and our trip was just fantastic! Thank you. We'll be back!

Lovely Time

My husband and I had a wonderful time in the Sunset lodge. We enjoyed all of the hiking trails, spending time down by the water and enjoying a private campfire. We would recommend any couple looking for a relaxing weekend in nature and beautiful surroundings.

Peaceful escape

I came up for a night with my dog. We had a beautiful night of sleep listening to the rain in the trees. We were up early to take a walk down to Lake Superior and greeted with such a beautiful beach full of sticks (my dogs most favorite thing) … the waves were crashing and it was windy but the water was warm and we enjoyed coffee and walks along the beach. I’ll definitely return so I can spend more time there

About the host

Hosted by Camp Amnicon

Host profile image
Camp Amnicon Adventures & Retreats is a high-adventure summer camp that offers guided wilderness trips to small groups of middle & high school students. We are ELCA-affiliated, and welcoming to people of all genders, races, and backgrounds. Our mission is to guide people to experience Grace & Growth in the wild places of creation. We hope that you get to experience deep peace while you're here.

At our base-camp, we rent out 6 small/personal retreat cabins and a big four-season lodge, as well several as hike-in campsites and seasonal glamping wall-tents. The cabins are far enough apart from each other and the main public spaces of the camp that you will get a nice amount of privacy. But you should also expect to see other people around the main areas of camp, at the beach, on the walking-paths, and in the public restrooms in the lodge. If you'd like to see a map of the grounds before making a reservation, feel free to send us a message and we'll be more than happy to share it with you.

99% of the year, our site is quiet and serene. There are a few days during the summer when we'll have several groups of campers coming through base-camp for day of orientation before they head out on their guided adventure trips. If you'd like to avoid these high-traffic days, please contact us prior to making your reservation. We're more than happy to share with you how busy we might expect any particular dates to be.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, or need help deciding if our cabins will be a good fit for you!

Why they chose this property

Located at the end of a 5-mile-long dirt road, our rustic retreat center is the perfect blend of far enough away and easy enough to get to. We're just 30 minutes outside Duluth, so you can spend your days touristing if you'd like. We're also far enough from the highway that you won't be bothered by the sounds of the city or highway while you're here. It's quiet, it's peaceful, it's lovely.
