Cozy, Clean, & Eclectic

Cabin was cozy, clean, and eclectic. We enjoyed reading the varied books, magazines, and newspapers in the cabin. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. Enjoyed sitting on the dock and riding in the boat. My husband even caught a few pike. Cabin was conveniently located for taking care of business in Ely. Host, Jeff, was a pleasure.

Great cabin!

We really enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin. We used it as a base camp for day trips into the BWCAW and exploring Ely. The host was gracious and helpful. Having Hanzo( the dog)'s enthusiastic greetings added joy to the stay :)

Peaceful getaway

Not necessarily private as others have stated, as owners home is close, but it is quiet and peaceful. My husband and I and our 10 year old fit perfectly in the small cabin which is beautifully decorated in an old fashioned, pre-technology style. We loved the boat, fishing off the dock, the fire pit, and exploring Ely!

Perfect Retreat

Staying at Jeff's cabin was nothing short but great! It's cozy and rustic—but with a bath, running water, heat, and a kitchen. Perfect to bring kids and get them to enjoy the outdoors when it gets to cold for rent camping. (My 7 and 4 y.o. heard the wolves howl and caught a 30 inch Northern right off the dock.) Jeff is a great host who accommodates to all your needs. We'll definitely be back!

Cabin on White Iron lake

We had a wonderful time. The cabin is even more charming and welcoming in person than in the photos. We are almost disappointed we had too many things to do during our time in Ely ... we would have loved to spend more quiet time in the cabin. It was clean and tidy, had everything we could have wanted or needed, and had a very homey feel. Thank you! We will be back!

Perfect log cabin for recharging.

The photos online do not show the charm of this property. Jeff was super helpful and his dog, Hanzo was so sweet. We would definitely stay here again! It is a great place to get away and recharge - it is a real jewel.

We had a wonderful time making memories here! Jeff was a great host as well as his dog Honso. The cabin is cozy with lots of historic north woods nostalgia. Jeff is also a great resource for fishing tips and has a lifetime of lake knowledge. We will definitely return!
