We had a great stay at the island cabin! The owner was very helpful and easy to communicate with. The location of the cabin is very remote, quiet and peaceful. The cabin and property are well taken care of. It was everything we were looking for. My husband and son had a great time fishing both off the dock and out on the lake.

Just left after a ten night stay. To be on a private island with the lake on all sides with wilderness pines on the opposite shore while the dogs roamed all through the grass and bushes was heaven

Staying on an island on Lake Vermilion has been on our family's bucket list for year! The cabin had everything we needed, the owner was incredibly easy to work with, and the view from the island was incredible. We loved the feel of a remote, back woods experience with amenities like electricity and running water.

Great getaway to an island retreat

We enjoyed a nice relaxing week at a great A-frame cabin on an island all our own. The property and location was perfect for what we were looking for and hope to get back there sometime. Has everything you would ever need, the hammocks and R&R was wonderful!

Fantastic spot to get away

We had a great week on Lake Vermilion. It’s a beautiful, peaceful spot with everything you need. We enjoyed fishing, swimming, hiking at the shore lunch, and watching bald eagles at the opening of Black Bay. Highly recommend for a great spot to spend time with family.

Cabin Living

The cabin was very nice and the view doesn’t get any better than that. A lot of great upgrades have been done to the property including the composting toilet, internet service, the live wells on the dock and the washer/dryer. You feel like you are in the wilderness but still have the amenities of home. Shaun was great and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend this vacation spot.

It was a nice place to stay. Loved the privacy on the island. It was nice having the washer and dryer. Everything we needed. The only issue was it seemed like we could launch our boat at their dock, but that wasn’t the case. Now we know for next time. Overall, great experience!

The Island is in a beautiful quiet location. Once you get all your stuff to the island its all relaxation. Fishing off the dock was good for the kids and provided good excitement. There are several places to eat and gas up on the big part of the lake. You can even access Fortune Bay via boat with a 30-40 minute boat ride. Golf at the Wilderness is top notch. The cabin is small, but enough room for 3 adults and 2 kids. Black bay is a small bay which provides nice protection when the weather gets bad. Dock has ample space for two larger boats. Saw lots of loons and eagles from our dock. Overall a great experience and highly recommend.

What a week of memories made!

What a week of memories made! Our family had such a wonderful time exploring, fishing and enjoying all of the beauty around the island. It is breathtaking! Do yourself a favor and check out the stars after dark. The kids caught plenty of fish right off the dock when we were not out on the lake. The cabin and island are well-stocked with everything you need. Shaun was very helpful with our questions. It was hard to leave!

Perfect Private Island Retreat

Cabin is incredible and having the island to yourself on this beautiful lake made for a perfect father son weekend getaway! The cabin has all of the conveniences of home and the host could not be more accommodating. I have stayed at many VRBOs and this was one of the best experiences I have had! The fishing off the dock was great and the owner went out of his way to help us on how / where to catch fish. The lake itself offers great fishing and beautiful scenery. Even though you are on a private island, it is easy enough to access town, so you get the convenience of town with the peacefulness of being away from the noise. The cabin has a great outdoor sitting area and fire pit that we used almost every night. We would highly recommend this to anyone, whether you are an avid sportsmen or just want to get away and enjoy the absolute serenity that this lake has to offer.

Great way to get out of the city!

The cabin and island were fantastic! Everything was very clean and very well laid out. The pre-strung hammocks were a great way to spend the afternoon reading a book with an excellent view out to the water. The area around the public boat landing directly south of the cabin was gorgeous! We boated all around Black Bay and into the main Lake Vermilion waters and saw plenty of wildlife. We took one day trip to hike the various trails nearby and another day trip to visit 100+ black bears at the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary. Shaun was an awesome host and always there when we had questions. We highly recommend his cabin and island to anyone looking for a secluded getaway.

Quiet, loons, stars….

We had a fabulous time…. Swimming off dock, fishing, star gazing, hammock swinging, books, and a couple fires. Kids caught loads of fish…first walleye! Cabin has super comfortable beds, clean linens. Washer/dryer a plus but used hanging lines more for our clothes. You are on an island and it slows everyone down. Need to be okay with no dishwasher, composting toilet, etc. Missing it! Thank you, Shaun.

Walleye Island

Shaun is an awesome host. Third summer trip in last three years and plan to come again next year. Enough walleye to feed the family for days! Imagine an entire island all for yourself with everything you would normally have at home. Comfortably slept family of five. Bathroom, water, and boat ride to island are all no problems and should not stop you from booking. This vacation rental is unlike any other we have ever stayed at and we keep coming back and it gets better every time. Thanks Shaun and see you next year and the new dock was great for swimming and parking the boat.

A stay away

It was a perfect place to get far away from everyday. We needed a break from everything that distracts us as a couple from the being our best. It was nice to reconnect, to remind ourselves of what is truly important and the things that really matter in life. We found that in our very short week. The serenity, quiet (but for the loons), and beauty that exists “ up north” is rarely found today. We found that here, and… we caught a few fish as a bonus! It’s not 5 star luxury but that’s not what this place is about, it’s much more rewarding than that.: Thanks for sharing your place with us Shawn,

Amazing private island is for real!

This is a private island with all the amenities of home. Stove and oven worked great! Kids caught tons of fish off the dock. Live well on the dock was great for keeping minnows and other caught fish. We rented the boat and Shaun gave great advice on ways to fish. We didn't catch the big one, but had a few that got away, maybe you will catch them. The boat was great for fishing. Would highly recomend this private getaway to anyone who is looking for a great fishing adventure. Toilet was no problem. House was clean when we got there. Zups grocery store in Cook had water and great local frozen pizza would recomend chicken alfredo! Dump was super easy to just outside of Cook. They didn't even charge for two bags of garbage dropped off. Thanks for all your help Shuan! Cant wait to come back!
