Relaxing week.

Which really enjoyed our stay at this cabin up north. Listing was very accurate, cabin was very clean, and horses were very communicative. The only thing that could’ve made our week better was some warmer weather.

Perfect place, great host

This is a fantastic place to stay!! We spent a week and would have loved to stay longer. The place is very nice, convenient, and has a private boat dock. The view of the lake is one of the best I've seen, and the property manager was top notch. If we hit Lake Vermillion again we'll definately be repeat customers.

Awesome family vacation home

We had a great family vacation at the lake house! It was perfect for our family of four and our dog. We had a great time relaxing at the lake house, making s’more’s over the fire pit, watching the beautiful sunsets, and taking our boat out to fish. The lake house was very clean and comfortable, and in a great location. We look forward to staying again!

Great week on the lake

Our second stay at the house was great, just like we remembered from last year. Very quick and easy to communicate with owners. It’s a convenient location, being close to boat launch and town, yet still able to get away from it all! Thanks so much for having the house open to rentals.

This place worked out perfectly.

We really enjoyed our stay at this home. It had everything we needed and was in a great location to travel around the lake. The kitchen was well stocked and the furniture was nice to relax in. The dock is set up well to power the boat and it isn't a long way from the house at all. Fish cleaning was easy with a big table near the dock. I would rent this home again.

Cozy cabin in the woods

This is a remodeled lake house that is cozy and has beautiful lake views off the deck. It is nestled in a forest with a new bike trail a block away. It is close to the Soudan Underground Mine, the International Wolf Center, the North American Bear Center, and lots of state parks and national forest. The owners were great.

Our family of 5 plus our dog had a fantastic time during our MEA break (October)! We loved how pet friendly the cabin was. The cabin was well appointed and clean. Our three kids (ages 9-10) had a great time with the foosball and air hockey table! The trail near the cabin was beautiful. We brought our boat and the dock was great. The nearby Soudan Mine State Park was very interesting and our kids loved it! If other larger families come to stay, would recommend bringing some plates as the cabin only had 4 large plates and 4 smaller plates (NOT a huge deal at all). Would definitley stay here again!

Hi Vanessa, Thank you for the great review and your stay! Just wanted to be sure to let you and other renters know that the first hallway closet has several other full sets of plateware and cookware. It sounds like it was overlooked and we could have done a better job with storage and supply directions.

Great Time

4 adults, 1 infant, 2 dogs, 6 nights. Had a great stay. Great weather & great fishing. All is as advertised. We used the basement bedroom this stay, and it was comfortable. It’s great having a place to clean the fish & handle the remains on site. We went out to eat twice, and prepared all other meals at home. We enjoy being close to Tower. Sean is super responsive.and we look forward to rebooking.

Perfect location

Property was as advertised and very clean. We were comfortable and plenty of room for the 3 of us and our two dogs. Hubby would appreciate a TV antenna for local channels vs just streaming service, but wifi worked great. Nice boat dock and quick access to great fishing spots as well as a nice setup for fish cleaning. Host was very responsive and we had no issues during our 6 day stay. Will definitely rebook.

Thanks for hosting! We had a great time. Unfortunately no muskies caught but fun time exploring the area. Happy the pier was still in the water. Would be awesome if the spice cabinet was labeled, we thought it was a breaker box! Thanks!

Amazing Lake Vermillion Getaway

We loved our week at this property. The house is comfortable and contains everything you need and more. Everything we impeccably clean. The dock is great for anyone bringing a boat, and it is also easy to launch kayaks and paddleboards straight from there. We caught lots of fish (including a 20 inch walleye off the dock!), relaxed on the spacious deck, played lots of board games, and had a wonderful time as a family. Thanks to Sean and his family for sharing the home!

Fantastic!

This was our 4th stay. Beautiful updates in the kitchen and front deck…love having a dishwasher! Great walleye fishing all week. We’re always very comfortable here, and the host is super responsive. We’ve never had an issue with the cabin or dock. Plenty of options for sleeping & relaxation. The west view on the back deck is superb. Enjoyed a visit to the International Wolf Center in Ely. It’s super convenient to the grocery store & restaurants in Tower, as well as bait We’ll definitely rebook!

Amazing view of the lake!!!

Our family had a wonderful vacation at this beautiful lake home. This home as everything we needed. It was super clean and had comfortable beds. There was plenty of room for yard games which our family likes to play. We rented a pontoon for a day and cruised the gorgeous Lake Vermilion! It was sad to leave at the end of the week but will certainly return one day. Sean and Amy were very easy to contact about anything we had questions on. Thank you for allowing our family to make memories at your lake home!

Loved the property as far as fall fishing goes. Sean the owner was also very helpful and responded to questions promptly. I would stay there again. A few noteworthy items: 1. all windows are air tight and do not open. You have to run A/C to get fresh air inside the house. Wish sleeping with open windows was possible. 2. The list of rules and instructions is pretty long. You may need to leverage AI to summarize key points. Jk. 3. Sean provided lots of firewood for bonfire. 4. There is a ring camera by the front and back doors. You need to be comfortable with being on someone’s camera.

Thank you for staying, but I want to clarify a couple things for any potential future guests reading this. 1. The home has several slider windows that open with no issue, but there is another slider storm window that additionally needs to be opened (easily opens). The windows that have A/C units installed don't open, but every bedroom in the home has a window that will open for air. I've never had a guest indicate they were unable to open windows. 2. We list rules and instructions up front so there are no surprises and to be helpful in operating certain things within the home. We are always open to suggestions! 3. Yes, there are two Ring cameras, which are clearly disclosed in the booking. We don't use them to "spy" on guests. They are there for security and liability purposes. This is extremely common among short term rental properties.
