Seclusion

If you need to get away and have no cell service with a chance to be away with no interruptions this is the place! We loved it and our teenager did have a moment after realizing there was zero service. It was great to watch our kids connect with little to no electronics. This place was secluded and extremely peaceful. Pack all the things and you will survive!

Exactly as described!

Exactly as described! They did a really good job letting me know exactly what was needed, they answered all my questions about no potable water on site and the need for firewood. The cabin is very comfortable and was perfect for my need of a place to stay to go hiking, it’s a beautiful location. The only thing I wished would have been different is that there was an actual blue number at the end of the driveway letting me know I had arrived. I drove for quite a while trying to figure out where the location of the property was since the number was missing from the end of the drive. Because there is no cell service I had to drive all the way back toward Grand Marais to get back in range (I have Verizon) to be able to call the caretakers and ask them where the property was located. Which they did, and I was able to get to it straight away. But the address listed on VRBO is not visible on the road to get to the cabin. I highly recommend this cabin if the description meets your needs, you will be very happy with your stay.
