Cathy's Cove on Lake Superior is a recently redecorated, private North Shore Retreat on an idyllic section of Lake Superior Shoreline near Tofte, Minnesota. The cabin sits on 425 feet of ledge rock shoreline and is directly on the Gitchi Gami Bike Trail. You will love the small seasonal waterfall that drops 30-40 feet into the cove below, which is visible from the cabin's deck.
This cozy little one bedroom, one bathroom, one-story cabin sits on 3 acres providing a peaceful, serene getaway on Lake Superior's North Shore. On the western side of the property, you will find a staircase leading to the ledge rock "peninsula" down to a private, seasonal waterfall. This is a shoreline that is truly unique to Cathy's Cove.

Spectacular view, great location and very cozy. We enjoyed the cove, listening to the waves of Lake Superior.
Easy trips to state parks, Grand Marais and Ganada.
Loved our stay. The view is amazing and it was so peaceful. The cabin was clean and comfortable and a great place to hike, bike and just enjoy nature at its best.

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Clean but unkept
The property was not well kept. From the outside, where are the entry mat was torn up the outside door barely functioned, the paint was peeling off the house, the gutters were full of leaves and branches and the entire location was crowded with invasive species; to the inside that barely fit 2 people, there were many stains on the flooring and the windows were a struggle to open or close. The one plus is that the property was clean inside. Overpriced and unkept.
We stayed at Cathy’s Cove for three nights. It was comfortable, and snug in the chilly, rainy weather. We will be back so we can experience the private little cove with our private fire on the beach! Because of all the recent rain, the waterfall was very active, which is a soothing sound and pretty sight even when it’s raining.
We loved our stay at Cathy's Cove. It was very clean and had everything we needed. We didn't expect to have our own private cove and waterfall. and were so excited to realize this. The views from the large deck are beautiful!
We'll be back.
Cottage was clean and tight. Kitchen supplies adequate. Furniture/ comfort very good. Access to shore was 75 steps down; the shore itself was lumpy rocks-- beautiful, but no good place to sit and enjoy. Great deck to enjoy the lake from above though. One queen size bed; the couch is also comfortable enough to sleep on.
Very clean and beautiful house. Views from main room/kitchen of Lake Superior and woods are amazing. Sleep to the sound of crashing waves. You can walk down steep stairs to get to water but do not expect to swim due to crashing waves on rocks. Local stores a short drive away. Lovely place that is nice and private.
This home was exactly what we hoped for. A beautiful view relaxing on the deck listening to the water and the birds. It was stocked with all the supplies we needed to cook and live for a week. We brought in our own seasonings and food. The location was perfect. Close to hiking, and the little shops when we needed groceries. This home was comfortable to stay in and we enjoyed the puzzles when we were back in the evenings.
We enjoyed our stay at Cathy's Cove. The weather didn't cooperate with us getting to spend much time on the wonderful deck, but still had a wonderful view from inside too. Bed was comfortable, check-in easy. Nice place. Bring coffee if you drink it, it's not furnished. Would definitely recommend a stay here.
