About the host
Hosted by Joy & Kyle Colbert

As owners of Lake Vermilion Houseboats on Lake Vermilion, we wanted to give our guests another option while staying with us. We are avid travelers ourselves and feel confident that we can help make your vacation as great as you want it to be! Originally from Iowa, both in the medical & dental fields, we want you to know that we are hard working genuine people who are also running a business on Lake Vermilion with our three young children. We may be incredibly busy, but never too busy for our guests as we are just a couple of miles down the road.
Why they chose this property
We absolutely love this property as we feel you will too! Large outdoor spaces for relaxing and grilling. As well as large indoor spaces too. A gourmet kitchen anyone would love to cook in. Beverage station in kitchen is awesome so that people aren’t bumping elbows. Separate living room and Great Room both host large sectional couches, plenty of space for everyone!
The loft area above the garage is THE hangout for adults or kids!! Heated garage in winter is a major plus, in-floor heat is also a beautiful addition. In the off season, this is the most quiet place to relax and unplug! The separate Bunk House is another area for privacy as well for older kids or adults.
With the central location on Lake Vermilion, off a paved highway down a winding Red Pine lined road, you'll find solace here. Quick easy access, plenty of parking, close to local bars/restaurants, the town of Cook or the town of Tower. Within 15 to 30 minutes you could be doing some or all of the things! Mini golf, to a gorgeous 18 hole golf course with casino, to shopping in Ely or visiting museums, to hiking or biking or just enjoying being on the water!
