This cabin was absolutely amazing! Everthing was clean and very comfortable. The bedrooms are away from the from the living room making it quiet for those who wish to sleep. The kitchen was well supplied with a variety of pans and cooking supplies. The host was quick to answer any questions. I would highly recommend making a reservation.

We had an incredible stay at Northern Exposure Log Cabins and cannot recommend it enough.From the moment we booked, the communication was extraordinary. Every question was answered quickly and clearly, which made planning for a large group so much easier.The cabin itself is beautiful, with thoughtful finishes everywhere you look. It is truly designed for gathering. There was plenty of space for our group to spread out, relax, cook together, and still find quiet corners. The kitchen was spacious and fully stocked with everything we needed.One of the sweetest touches was how dog friendly the property is. Not only are pups welcome, there was even a bed waiting for our pooch. That level of care meant so much.We visited in the winter and the location could not have been better. We filled our days with adventure at Dry Lake Loop, Kawishiwi Falls, events at the Ely Winter Festival, and a stop at Dorothy Molter Museum for root beer. Nights ended perfectly with sauna time, laughter, and watching wildlife wander through. Our deer visitors were definitely a highlight.If you are looking for a warm, welcoming, well appointed place to host a large group in the Ely area, this is it. We would come back in a heartbeat.

Beautiful place. Loved the location and the lake was so peaceful. Heard many loons and eagles because we believe there was an eagles nest nearby. I even scared a deer on accident. It was simply a wonderful stay. Thank you!

A great setup for groups with plenty of room. We had 4 couples staying together, and it worked out great. While one was in the bunk room, they loved having their own bathroom. A major plus is the house layout, with all the sleeping areas on one end of the place and the main common areas on the other. That way as people woke up they could join the group without disturbing those still sleeping.The sauna was great and got used almost every day. The boat launch area could be improved, but moving massive boulders to create a cleaner area probably isn’t a priority. The dock ladder could be nicer, but is still functional.The location is phenomenal though. A few minutes drive to town and tons of attractions was great. The walking path around Miner’s lake is one driveway over and was very convenient since we had dogs with us.Our group was raving about the place and already saying we should make staying here a tradition. We’re also considering bringing a family group here as well.

Thanksmas Stay

Gorgeous views and very nice cabin! Host was extremely responsive to any and all of our questions. He even helped locate a left behind toy. Only recommendation is if you travel there in the winter make sure you have good tires and 4 wheel drive! Drive is steep and slipperly when that gorgeous Minneaota snow starts falling!

We had a wonderful stay at this property, which provided a perfect blend of activities and relaxation. The sauna was a highlight, offering a great way to unwind. The high-end appliances, along with the grill and smoker, made cooking a pleasure. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely rent this property again. 5/5 Rating!

Cozy, fun getaway

Beautiful property with a lovely little beach and fire pit. The cabin is very “open,” spacious and beautiful and the views from the bedrooms on the first floor are very nice. The kayaks and canoe are an excellent addition, they were much used by my family and I. Didn’t try the sauna but would love to come back and do so in the wintertime.

West Family Ely Adventures

We loved our stay in Ely. The property is new, well equipped and setup nicely to handle large groups (we were 8 adults and one infant). Marcus and Abby were very accessible and addressed the few minor requests we had proactively (with follow up to make sure we were happy with the results). If we can get the crew together again next year - we will definitely come back to the Ely Cabin.
