About this property

Classic Lakeside Log Cabin with Panoramic Views ... Fish, Swim, Relax!

The charm, comfort, and beautiful setting of our vintage Northwoods log cabin will make your cares melt away. Our cabin sits so close to the water, you'll feel like you're floating on stunning Lake Wabedo. Inside the home, you're treated to comfortable furnishings, a well-appointed kitchen, and amazing views of the lake from nearly every room in the house; outside, you're literally steps away from swimming, paddling, and world-class fishing

What will you do with your day? Watch the sky turn early-morning pink over the lake without even leaving your bed. Enjoy your coffee from the lakeside deck in the company of the many birds that visit our feeders. Perhaps you'll head out in the canoe to visit Fish Island, or explore the winding channel that connects Lake Wabedo to Little Boy Lake. Bring or rent a boat and fish the waters of them both, nearly 2,600 acres total, and reel in everything from panfish to walleye to trophy-sized muskie (of course, fishing's not bad from our dock either). Enjoy a cool drink and watch the kids swim off the dock.. In the evening, take in the sunset from the deck and listen to the ghostly call of the loons.

Should the weather be inclement, no worries--our cabin has a spacious open floor plan, and everything in it has been carefully chosen with comfort and relaxation in mind. There's plenty of comfortable seating for everyone to hang out and watch a movie, play a game, or just enjoy the company of good friends and family.

Feel the need to get out? Visit one of many charming nearby towns, including Longville, just a few miles away and home to world-famous turtle races! Play some putt-putt at Birdie's in Longville. Try your luck at the Northern Lights Casino in Walker. Hike or bike the many local trails, and visit Deep Portage Conservation Reserve for a variety of outdoor activities and classes.

Whatever you choose, the backdrop for it all is the calling loons, towering pines, and lapping waters of Lake Wabedo. You will leave feeling rested, rejuvenated . . . and eager to come back

I have stayed in this cabin several times now. It never disappoints and has everything you need. Great old-school cabin feel with a fabulous view from every room. And I’ve always had success fishing on this lake, including seeing and catching a variety of trophy-sized fish over the years. Kirk, the owner, is awesome. Can’t wait to go back next year!

Great stay!

Cabin was perfect for our small group. Great location. Driveway was a pain with a full size truck and a 20 foot boat, but we made it work.We would definitely stay here again.

Comfy log home with large deck offering beautiful views of the lake. Kitchen is supplied with everything needed for those who like cooking any type of meal. Floor plan has 2 bedrooms on opposite side of the house so kids could sleep-in undisturbed while early risers made coffee to enjoy on the deck and soak in the sounds of birds and distant views of fishermen. We even used the wood stove but set off the smoke alarms so open some windows for ventilation. Boat launch is an easy walk of 1/4 mile away. If you’re bringing a boat the owner will send a map to help maneuver your turn around. The two large lakes provides a variety of fishing opportunities. The kids loved jumping off the dock, climb up the ladder and do it again and again. This is a simple, comfortable, clean, well supplied log cabin that has everything needed for a week of relaxed lake living.

Loved it

We loved our stay. The driveway is tough for traveling with a pontoon so we had to improvise and it worked. He had warned us so we were prepared. We built a fire and enjoyed looking out the window at the gorgeous lake. Walks daily on the gravel roads. Great fishing. Location was perfect to to explore other towns. We will be headed back next year!

Fantastic up north getaway. Great old log cabin that brought me back to my childhood. Fishing was great. I don’t think I’ve ever been on a lake with so many loons! . Kitchen was well stocked. Lots of room to spread out. The dining table and tables outside hosted many fuel filled cribbage games. The small table in the living room housed a very fun puzzle. Beds were very comfortable. Distance to Longville was a pleasant surprise. Just a short drive away. Kurt was a fantastic, communicative host. I’ll be back

5 Stars – A Peaceful Slice of Paradise on Lake WabedoWe couldn’t be more grateful for the unforgettable experience we had at this beautiful log cabin on Lake Wabedo. From the moment we arrived, we felt an immediate sense of peace and calm that truly set the tone for our stay.The cabin is a true gem. Cozy, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed with so much care. Every detail, from the inviting interior touches to the stunning lake views, made it feel like a true home away from home. It was exactly the kind of setting my husband and I needed to relax, recharge, and reconnect.We spent our days enjoying the natural beauty around us and our evenings curled up by the fire. By the end of the week, we felt more rested and rejuvenated than we have in a long time.The host went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The kitchen was incredibly well-stocked, the instructions were clear and helpful, and all the little touches made a big difference. It’s clear that they truly care about their guests’ experience.This cabin is a peaceful retreat we’ll never forget. We’re already hoping for a chance to return and create even more memories in this special place. Highly recommend!

The property was great! The family and I had a nice time there and can’t wait to come back again. Fishing off the dock was excellent, everyone caught something. It was also close to town for any needed supplies but the house was stocked nicely.

Great, authentic, classic cabin with modern amenities like AC, streaming TV, grill, etc. View is tremendous sitting on a small hill at lakeside. Wabedo is also a great fishing lake, especially for smallmouth bass. We enjoyed our stay tremendously!

About the host

Hosted by Kirk Buster

Host profile image
I grew up in northern Minnesota, just a couple of hours east of our cabin. I have so many fond memories of fishing with my dad and brother, camping with the family, hiking with Boy Scouts and exploring with friends. When I got married, I talked my (agreeable) wife into a Northwoods, Boundary Waters, house-boating honeymoon. She was instantly hooked on Minnesota and we've vacationed here most summers since.

Why they chose this property

We were looking for the classic Minnesota lake cabin and knew we were at home the first time we saw this early-40s log cabin.
