Our Favorite North Shore Cabin

My husband and I have been staying here since 2020, when I booked the cabin as a "work from home/social distancing" getaway. It quickly became our favorite! Peaceful, rustic (but not TOO rustic), and cozy -- the perfect North Shore escape.

Peaceful Getaway

My partner and I brought our dogs up for the weekend hoping for a snowy stay. Though we did not get any snow, our stay was beautiful and cozy. We really enjoyed having the fireplace and easy access to as much firewood as we needed! We loved it and would absolutely stay again. The gift shop is super cute and I was able to meet Danni in person there as well, and she was lovely. Definitely recommend staying here for easy access to hiking, skiing, or a cozy getaway in the woods!

Always Great

This was our second stay at North Country cottages. The cottage is quaint, well equipped and had peekaboo views of the lake. We could even hear the waves crashing. The fireplace is perfect. We will certainly be back again.

About the host

Your host

We moved here from Chicago in 2013 looking to settle down in the North Woods and start a family. Our love of nature was a driving force. We were always trying to vacate the big city for camping and hiking excursions, so we decided that before we tried for children it would be great to put down roots somewhere very outdoor focused, so that our hopeful children would grow up surround by nature.

Danielle was born and raised in Minnesota and couldn’t wait to get back “home.” Spending time on the North Shore from the time she was 2, it always held a special place in her heart. Carl was born and raised in Ohio, but fell in love with the area on a visit in 2012.

We got married on the shore of Lake Superior shortly after moving here, bought our first home two years later, and were happy to welcome our first child in to the world in 2016! It’s been an incredible journey since we moved to the North Woods and the opportunity to become business owners has just added to the adventure.

We are so grateful to call these cottages ours, and will continue to put our time and efforts into improving on what is already here and so lovely.

We hope you enjoy your time here!
