About this property
Story-book Cabin in the Woods above Lake Superior, near Grand Marais. -New Sauna
(In May of 2024, we finished building a wood-fired sauna and off- grid shower building at this property. Hope you'll like it!)
Charming off-grid cabin surrounded by beautiful forest, starry skies, and wildlife. Campfires, hammocks, and seclusion await you at this sweet cottage. While enjoying the tranquility of this cabin, it's hard to believe Lake Superior and Grand Marais are less than five minutes away. Enjoy the nearby waterfalls, shorelines, and new bike path along the big Lake.
Well-stocked kitchen with propane stove. Gallery stairs lead to a loft with a comfy queen bed. There is also full size futon downstairs, a little wood stove and solar-powered lights and USB charger. It's hard to believe off-grid living could be this cozy. That said, it's not for everyone. Guests will bring in water, ice, and linens / sleeping bags. There is an outhouse for guests. Guests will need to tidy up the cabin for the next guests as well (therefore there is no cleaning fee).
If you're looking for a unique lodging experience that is still comfortable and charming in a location that feels totally secluded but is just outside of Grand Marais, this is the spot!
