About this property
Water's Edge on Lake Vermilion
Four seasons of fun on Lake Vermilion. Enjoy lake views, sunrises and sunsets year round with islands in the distance. The cabin sits steps from a rock lined shore featuring a large fire pit and deck overhanging the water, there is a nice dock with bumpers to keep your boat. The property is located 3 miles from a public boat launch.
The cabin has everything you'll need for a comfortable stay, the kitchen is fully stocked with a new electric glass top stove/oven along with a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and endless amounts of counter space round it out. If cooking is not in your plans during your stay, we are within a few miles by boat, car or snowmobile to a number of restaurants on the lake. The bedrooms have rustic bed frames and comfortable mattresses, the bathroom located between the bedrooms offers a new shower and fixtures.
The heated bunkhouse has a king size bed with a futon couch which converts to a double bed for additional sleeping space, a smart TV and a small refrigerator. The bunkhouse is located a few steps from the cabin as well as steps away from a stylish outhouse for those of you who are the outdoorsy type.
The cabin sits between 2 large parcels of land with no neighbors in sight, the only thing you'll see is Mother Nature.
On the deck overlooking the lake we have a large Green Egg grill available for use and we supply the lump charcoal.
Winter - The Lake Vermilion area offers easy access to more than 1,000 miles of interconnected groomed Minnesota snowmobile trails. Located at the junction of the Arrowhead and Taconite trail systems, the trails are well-marked with detailed maps on the lake. If you have snowmobiles you can access the lake from our property, if not there are rentals available in the area. Winter walleye, northern, perch, crappie, and bluegill make for excellent ice fishing. Cross-county skiing, snowshoeing and dogsledding are also available in the area. At night when it's quiet you can hear the ice cracking from miles around. My favorite is on a clear night to sit on the deck gazing at billions of stars and listen.
Spring - Fishing is amazing on Lake Vermilion. We are located on the north shoreline of Daisy Bay, from the windows or outside enjoying the weather, you'll watch boats pass by and you're close enough to ask if they are catching anything!
Summer - The warming water temperatures allow for water skiing, swimming or just floating right off the dock. The lake bottom is hard and rocky in areas but drops off quickly, it's about 12 feet deep at the end of the dock. Our cabin is protected from the wind and boat traffic as it's situated in a cove-like shoreline. The cabin has air conditioning but most nights will offer a breeze off the lake allowing you to comfortably sleep with the windows open and able to hear the sound of the waves.
Fall - If you love the changing seasons and the colors of the leaves changing during the fall months, you will not be disappointed on Lake Vermilion. Warm and sunny days lead to crisp, cool nights and a great time for a bonfire with s'mores. This is also a great time of year for fall fishing, hiking and biking, ATV/OHV, and golf.
Nearby attractions include Fortune Bay Casino, The Wilderness at Fortune Bay Golf Course, Pier 77 Mini Golf, The International Wolf Center, North American Bear Center, Pebble Spa, Soudan Underground Mine, and endless hiking trails and attractions.
No matter if you're looking for activities or you're wanting nothing but tranquility you'll love this space anytime of year!
