Perfect North Shore Base Camp

Amazing location just minutes away from great hikes, trails, waterfalls, rivers, the lake, and bars/restaurants. And it really feels like home - clean, comfortable, all the amenities you need for an incredible trip to the north shore.

Great For Atv

We picked this place mainly because it was on the atv trails, but it's a really great cabin. Little out of town so private but close enough to just run and grab something if you need it quick. Would stay again for sure!

Cute Quiet Cabin

Nice cabin in the woods, close to lots of North Shore attractions! We had 5 adults and 1 dog and used the trail shack as our home base for a long weekend getaway. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, and we were very relaxed and happy during our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Bellanger

We are a family of five. We have another rental in the area and we love the North Shores variety of activities. One day we will be hiking, then biking, then on ATV or Snowmobile trails. I wish we had more time for the North Shore ourselves. I seem to enjoy more the more time I spend up there. Every season has something new to offer.

Why they chose this property

I loved the private lot of the Trail Shack and the convenience and flexibility that it offered. I wanted a clean, comfortable place with some character. I loved the access to all of the trails. You can access beaver bay and silver bay through the trail systems and avoid ever going on highway 61.

What makes this property unique

Easy access to roads, trails, restaurants, bars, activities without compromising privacy.
