Private Cabin on Pelican Lake with Premium Views

Woods, water, west-facing, and at the gateway to Voyageur's National Park

Woods: This property has 2 acres of woods with old red and white pine stands sheltering their baby trees that are regenerating everywhere. The nature walk along the shoreline through the trees has a cleansing effect on me, and I hope you can feel that too.

Water: The lake is famous for great fishing and our location is on the map - you can just walk out into the water with waders or fish from the dock. Pro bass fishermen were photographed along our shore, so its good. We also have a great all-around boat for rent if you'd like to get out on the lake for cruising, tubing or fishing. We have a two person canoe for our guests to use freely as well.

West-facing: Pelican Lake is over 11,000 acres and we are situated on the east side of the lake facing west out into its vast beauty. There are three islands in view and it's just gorgeous. The fire pit is down by the water where you can relax and watch the setting sun trade places with all the colors of the famous "pelican skies."

Voyageur's National Park, Minnesota's only, is a 30 minute drive to Crane Lake. Alternatively, drive north about the same distance to access it from Kabetogama. The park is all water, so you will need a boat or to rent one, ours stays on Pelican. But it is truly beautiful untouched northern forest and big water up there.

If you need a few amenities? No problem, Orr is less than 10 minutes away where you can find a grocery store, post office, restaurants, liquor and hardware store. For a few more amenities, Cook is a 25 minute drive.

There are great local hiking trails, waterfalls, outlooks and the Vince Shute Bear reserve should not be missed.

There is a train that passes over a mile away and you can hear it. We actually like it but there is that sound factor. We also have a friendly local dog that swings by to see if we are around, Lenny. Just an FYI for pets and kids.
