About this property

Lake Cabin on beautiful Pequaywan Lake

This is a well-kept, 1,000 square foot cabin that sleeps six (6!) and has an AMAZING view! Beautiful sunsets occur nightly, serving as an evening highlight just out the front door! Mix in the songs of the loons, and your stress can wash away.
Pequaywan Lake is a private lake with no public access, so it is very quiet, beyond the loons and occasional pontoon. We offer a swim raft and a “Lily Pad” swimming mat. The water is warm and clear for swimming, so plan on jumping in! The bottom of the lake is solid, but is a sand/gravel mix, so swim shoes are good bet to bring with for your time in the water.
Additionally, we offer a pontoon for rent along with the cabin, available to renters for $75/day and fuel is included in that cost. Due to this low, accessible pontoon rental fee, we do require it to be rented for your entire stay when you add this option – but note that we do not charge you for your check-in or check-out day. Be sure to contact us with additional questions or for more information regarding the pontoon rental. To ensure that Pequaywan Lake stays clean and free of invasive species, we do not allow guests to bring their own boats. The best fishing on the lake can be found right off our 32’ dock where walleye, small mouth bass, and northern pike can be caught.
The location of the cabin is very convenient; it is only 40 minutes from Duluth’s Miller Hill Mall, 45 Minutes from Duluth’s Canal Park – the area’s major tourist on Lake Superior, and the quaint city of Two Harbors is 35 minutes away, with lots of shopping, hiking and tourist areas. Looking to take in other sites? It is only a short 45-minute drive to Gooseberry Falls and then Split Rock Light House is just up Hwy 61 from there.
Food and drink can be found at the Pequaywan Inn which is four miles away. They offer a full menu and full bar. Hugo's Bar/Convenience Store offers beer and setups, as well as a limited menu. They also have bait/tackle/propane tank refills/minimal groceries/gas. Hugo’s is seven miles away to the north. See the screen shot in our pictures for locations of these establishments.
Electronic entertainment and amenities: our cabin has satellite and Roku television and BluRay player for rainy days. Wireless Internet is also provided.
Looking for a relaxing place to unwind after running Grandma’s Marathon? We’ve got you covered out of the hustle and bustle of Duluth during that packed, exciting weekend, but with easy access to the fun!
Spring, Summer and Fall Activities: This is a location where you can have fun as the leaves turn green and all the way until they are an incredible, gorgeous array of colors!
There are hundreds of miles of ATV trails right out the back door. St. Louis County allows ATV travel on the road ways so getting to and from the trails and forest roads is a breeze. We offer a large driveway that can easily accommodate trucks and trailers.
For the hunting enthusiasts, the Cloquet Valley Forest area offers some of the best grouse hunting territory in the state with thousands of acres of public land right out the back door.
Hikers and back country bikers can drive less than five miles and access the Superior Hiking Trail. See the screen shot in our pictures for information on the trails.
Fall Colors are unbelievable in this area; a perfect way to enjoy the early fall in the northland.
Winter Sports: Yes, even when the snow flies this is a place you want to be!
Snowmobiles: The groomed snowmobile trail is within one mile from of the cabin with easy, flat ditch access. Enjoy the Pequaywan /Brimson trails or use them as access to the North Shore Trail or Iron Range trails for longer adventures. In our photos, we have provided a screen shot of where we are located in relation to the snowmobile trails. As stated above, we offer a large driveway that can easily accommodate your trucks and snowmobile trailers.
Cross Country Skiing is nearby. A short five-mile drive will bring you to the parking lot of the “Mother Bear Ski Trail” a great St. Louis County trail. See the screen shot in our pictures for information on the trails.
Snow shoeing opportunities are also very close by and can be done at the same location as the “Mother Bear Ski Trail” or by accessing the thousands of acres of public land that is virtually surrounding the cabin area. Again, check the screen shot in our pictures for information on the trails.
Cell phone coverage is good with AT&T, but Verizon is unavailable at this time in this location. We also have internet with Wi-Fi that can be used for VoIP calling and messaging. Please see your manufacturer for setup.
We are also pet friendly. We offer two smaller “porta kennels” in the garage and offer a large (5'x10') outdoor kennel for your convenience.

We had a wonderful time staying at the Pequaywan Getaway. It’s a very cozy cabin with immaculate views. We stayed in the main bedroom and my husband and I were pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the bed was. I would recommend staying here as it felt like a relaxing escape from the real world!

Our family had a lovely week at the cabin over the 4th. Fridge broke but Jim and crew responded right away with a new one delivered on the holiday. Slightly disappointed that we couldn't use the lily pad as it was covered in mildew and the raft as it had quite a bit of bird poop covering it. The cabin was nicely appointed with linens and towels included as well as any kitchen gadget needed. Overall the cabin and boat do need a deep clean.

This was a great place to stay; the cabin was well taken care of, the amenities were nice, and the availability of the pontoon sealed the deal. We had our teen kids with us and there was plenty of room. The lake was warm, and the whole property was pleasant to stay at.

Fantastic!

We did everything on our list we wanted to do! We caught all species of fish in the lake, took out atv on the ATV trails, swam, enjoyed the pontoon! We seen plenty of wildlife, enjoyed bonfires, seen shooting stars. The area was quiet which we really enjoyed. Only downfall was the no AC in the cabin but there was plenty of fans to keep air flow going and the cabin itself is in shade so that was helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Very nice property overall, but I had a couple issues that can’t be ignored. First, our original reservation was canceled by the host because they forgot they had family staying during the same dates we booked. In this business, that is unacceptable, hence the reason for only giving 2 stars. I would’ve given 4 otherwise. I also had an issue with the cleanliness of the bathroom (see photo). The host is relying on guests to do most of the cleaning, so I’m not sure what the cleaning fee is used for besides making the beds. Other than these issues, the views from the cabin were amazing and the host had great communication. I just wish we could have avoided any issues at all.
The shower did not drain well and looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in months.

We live in nearby Hermantown with our 3 school aged children. We bought the cabin so they could enjoy the lake life as they grow up. With busy schedules, we try to get to the cabin a couple times a month and we want to share it with others when we are not able to enjoy it ourselves.

Why they chose this property

The best sunsets you can find with nightly sounds of loons calling.

What makes this property unique

Conveniently located between the Duluth,Two Harbors and North Shore areas with privacy to boot.
