About this property

A River Runs Through It

Ok, so the mighty Crown Creek is not a river but the power of the rapids cascading through this property truly is mesmerizing. This 10.5 acre property consists of a one bedroom and one bathroom log cabin over-looking the Crown Creek. Trout fishing in both the Crown Creek and the adjoining Baptism River is excellent. The log cabin was just COMPLETELY renovated and everything in it is brand new. Quartz counter-tops and a copper sink highlight the new kitchen. Please view the YouTube link for more. Snowmobile and ATV trails are accessible right from the property with no need to trailer. End your night with a bonfire and smores overlooking Crown Creek in your own private setting. Please note that there is a security camera on the outside of the property.

Interior of the cabin is nice and open, with a lovely kitchen & bathroom. Outside features a fire pit, screened-in gazebo, and lounging area close to the river. Absolutely gorgeous location, and secluded from other buildings. My wife and I loved our stay!

The cabin is really nice. It's a peaceful place to stay and convenient base for North Shore day trips. It's about 3 miles into Finland and the convenient Finland Coop is a nice place for picking up miscellaneous grocery items. We at Our Place in Finland and had a good non-fancy supper and breakfast there. Best bet is to bring your own food for a meal at the cabin though. The section of the creek running by the cabin is gorgeous and the creekside deck is a perfect place to enjoy it in nice weather. The cabin was very comfortable and spacious for two people.

North woods getaway

Dave's cabin was fantastic, again. We have stayed several times, and will continue to come back. The property is secluded, and has a great view. We loved sitting on the deck, around the fire and playing games in the gazebo.

The property was in great condition, very comfortable with all the necessary amenities. It rained a good part of our stay, so mostly stayed on site. But the covered gazebo was perfect for reading and lounging, and as an avid bird watcher I enjoyed walking around the property, as there are so many birds in the trees! It is close to plenty of state parks, and Dave provided a good list of things to do. Very close to a general store in Finland if you are short on supplies. The creek running through was gorgeous, and definitely is impressive in person. Would absolutely stay again!

Peaceful Getaway

This place is relaxing, clean and comfortable. The sound of rushing water from Crown Creek is nothing short of therapeutic. It's in easy reach of Lake Superior or head the other direction and enjoy the quiet forest. If you plan on grilling, you'll need to bring a portable grill, as the grill is unusable. No tv channels, but who cares.

We loved our stay! It was the perfect place for a quiet getaway before the busy holiday season. With so much nature in the area to explore, we came home feeling relaxed and rested. The cabin was very comfortable, clean, and had all of the amenities we needed for the weekend.

Winter retreat

Very nice place away from it all. Adequately equipped kitchen. Gas fireplace kept us warm all weekend. Bed was very comfortable. Creek was frozen over, so guess we’ll have to come back in the summer. Recommend highly.
