Our family had a great summer vacation here this year. The screened in porch is pretty spectacular on a summer evening. The beds were comfortable and our kids had fun playing by the water. It’s tucked in the corner of a quiet bay and conveniently located near Grubens marina.

Beautiful home on lake Vermilion. We loved the location, the hot tub and watching all the deer. My husband caught a 53 in muskie off the dock. The house is great, the only thing I could suggest is upgrading the pots and pans, so if you plan on cooking bring some of your own.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this beautiful property. There was ample room for our whole family. The grandchildren loved the Lilly pad, kayaks, and canoe. The hot tub was an added bonus as well. Lake Vermillion is always so wonderful- we only have good memories there. The host was very prompt in responding, and everything proceeded smoothly. I would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful Cabin!

We had a great week at this cabin! Loved the location - tucked inside a small cove just off the Big Bay. The cabin was beautiful and spacious! Communication with the property manager was easy and timely.

The property was great! We had a large group and it worked out very well for us. There were a lot of places to sleep although triple bunk beds for adults is a little tight. Our only concern was parking. As we did have a large group of adults, there was not enough parking for our cars and boat trailers. We knew this in advance. It was well communicated. But, nonetheless, while doing everything the property manager could to help us, this proved a challenge. The bay is quiet and beautiful. We had bald Eagle visitors daily. We caught fish and we were not too far from the Wilderness Golf Course.

Family vacation

This place was awesome! Very quiet area on the lake. The house is very nice and spacious. The property manager was very easy to work with. We Enjoyed the sauna during the cooler mornings and evenings along with the hot tub. The screen in deck area with the fire pit was a very relaxing place. Convenient location on the lake for fishing as well. We hope to be back!

I don’t normally leave reviews but this place is outstanding and one of the nicest houses on Lake Vermilion! We traveled here with my entire family(12 people) and everyone was blown away. The kids loved playing on the private beach, swimming in the lake, playing pool and foosball in the rec room. We brought our fishing boat and also rented a pontoon for the week. The docking was great a fit both boats with ease. It was great to be able to wind down in the hot tub after a long day. From the wonderful kitchen to the fire table in 3 seasons room this place is truly a gem. So if your looking for a place to stay on Lake Vermilion this is the one you want!

Awesome place

We spent 4 nights for family vacation at this place, we had adults and kids in our group and everybody loved it! The house is awesome, has all the amenities! We brought our boat and used "Gruben's Marina & Resort" to launch our boat to the lake. They charge 5 to dropoff and 5 to pick up the boat. They are only 3 minutes away from this property. There are some public boat launching places but they are further away.Kids loved spending time at the little private beach, lily pad mat, kayaking and jacuzi.There is a great wood borning sauna that we used couple times.This place is a blast, highly recommended.

Beautiful Home at a Great Location

This house is beautiful and clean. The multi-level home well accommodated our family of 11. The location was perfect for access to Lake Vermillion. The kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed. The beach area was great and the kids enjoyed the lily pad and swing set. We used the kayaks, canoe, hot tub and sauna. Moccasin Point was a close boat ramp to launch our boat and the dock at the property made our fishing days easy. By the way, we did have fishing success! The property manager was quick to respond to our questions. We couldn’t have found a better place for our family vacation. Also, if you need to rent a boat or pontoon, we can recommend Lake Vermillion Houseboats. Wonderful people to work with. Pizza at The Vermillion Club was great too! We will be back!

Tower Getaway

Our stay was wonderful! The property was great, clean, easy to get to and loved where it was located on the lake. We had a large eagle visit us every day and a deer, two turtles sunning themselves on a rock in the lake.The house accommodated 11 of us very well. Our one suggestion would be that there more chairs in the porch and out side. While the adirondack chairs in the porch are nice they are too big for that room and really not that comfortable and would be better outside. The kitchen was pretty well stocked. The caretaker Ryan was Great, we had issues with the oven and he came right over and while we couldn't use it the rest of our stay it was nice knowing he was just a phone call away if we needed anything! We all would love to return next year, thanks again for offering your beautiful home!!!!

Fun on the lake!

The house was beautiful and the location was perfect! There were plenty of household supplies provided (towels, dishes, paper products, etc) as well as stuff for kids to use. (Though we didn't have any littles.) It was a very comfortable home-away-from-home for a week. The weather was a little cool for June, but it made the fires more fun at night! And there is a hot tub AND a sauna to keep you warm! The guys enjoyed fishing from the dock and on the lake. There's even a canoe and kayaks to take for a spin if you want. We took a ride to the Voyagers National Park one night and got to see the Northern Lights! highly recommend the trip. Shopping isn't too close (about 30-40 min away) but if you plan well, you can make one trip to get food and supplies. Check out the VC and Tavern In the Bay for dinner and make the trip to Ely to see the wolves! The only downside to the house was that there is only one bathroom on the lower level where all the bedrooms are. So 8-10 people have to share during the night. The main bedroom on the main floor has its own and there is another full bath right next to it, but it's not very convenient to have to run up there if the other one is being used. Poor planning but it doesn't detract from the rest of the house being great.Overall, a great family vacay home!

Our multi-generational family visit to this property was absolutely wonderful. Everything from the location to home decor and contents was fantastic. Somethings to take note of though is the sauna is wood fired. We may have used it had it been electric. We were so busy we didn't miss it. In our particular family dynamic a bedroom on the lower level with a king size bed would have been welcome. It's a great property for families. We definitely would stay again.
