About this property

newly renovated home

Two bedrooms with 1 queen & 1 double bed, full kitchen, television and gas fireplace, original maple hardwood floors in living room and 1 bedroom, Cork floors in kitchen and master bedroom. Ceramic tiled entry and bathroom, walk in shower and separate claw foot tub on lower level. Walk out basement with direct access to trail system. Newly landscaped with large lawn area. Home was completely gutted with brand new electrical, plumbing & heating systems installed. Spray foam insulation was added to be energy efficient and eliminate outside noise. We added central air-conditioning, in time for summer heat waves. We are connected to WI FI.

Note: After the spring flooding on nearby ATV and snowmobile trails, we are happy to let you know that the trails have reopened in Finland and all the way toward Ely. Work is still being done on trails around Silver Bay. 😌😊

Record February Stay
Another wonderful, short vacation...even without be able to snowmobile, we had a fabulous time at the Sisu house. Very relaxing, excellent accommodations, hosts and great company. Enjoyed relaxing indoors, playing games, working on puzzles and watching movies, as well as many nature hikes. Will be back again and again!

Winter weekend in north shore
We loved our stay. This is 3rd or 5 th time we stayed here and hope to come back year after year. The cabin is spotlessly clean, kitchen is fully supplied with utensils/ pots and pans. The fireplace is wonderful. Beds are comfortable. We love snowshoeing right from the back door and found a new xc ski trail 15 minutes away!

About the host

Hosted by Diane Lindberg

Host profile image
This is my childhood home, recently & totally renovated. We are proud of our Finnish heritage and that's why we chose the Sisu name. Sisu in Finnish means tenacity in the face of adversity, guts, 'stick to it'- tiveness

What makes this property unique

We wanted to keep the feeling and charm of an older home. But we do enjoy and have installed modern comforts (most recent: central air conditioning and WIFI)
