Lake Vermilion Getaway Property Great Location, Space, Beach

Beautiful vacation get away. In the winter, the house sleeps up to 7 and there is easy access to miles of north woods snowmobile trails and the lake for snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing. Sauna inside in basement of the house. Dish TV and Wifi. Walleye ice fishing house rental contact information is available. Panfish/ Crappie ice fishing information also available. The casino is 5 minutes away and there is an awesome wolf museum in Ely to visit in the winter. Giants Ridge downhill and cross-country skiing is close. After your day in the snow, a sauna in the basement awaits to warm you up!

The main house sleeps up to 7 people and is available year round. The small summer seasonal cabin is not open in the winter. The main house has 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom with shower upstairs. The main level has two couches and a bathroom with a toilet and sink. The basement has two separate single beds and a full bathroom with a shower. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a queen size bed plus an extra single mattress in the closet if needed for extra sleeping space. The second bedroom upstairs also has a queen bed. The third bedroom upstairs has a bunk bed made of two single beds. Good Wifi in the main house.

This property has a year round main house and small summer seasonal cabin on Lake Vermilion! It's in Daisy Bay - a prime, central location on the lake. In summer months, May through September, the main house plus the small seasonal cabin come as a package deal, you get both - whole property. The summer seasonal one bedroom cabin sleeps 2 to 3.

The property is 1.65 acres so plenty of space. This is a 2000 square foot main house with plenty of space! Enjoy your vacation in this northwoods updated, quiet home on a premier north Minnesota lake on the edge of the BWCA. There is 175 feet of shoreline with a sand beach for swimming or relaxing in the summer and easy access to the lake year round. There is a boat launching area next to the dock also. Perfect for family vacations, fishing, ice fishing, and snowmobiling groups. Also an excellent getaway for people wanting to go up north for that relaxing, quiet escape!

Dual propane central furnace and also baseboard heat in the winter. Year round house. There is an electric fireplace insert with a small flame inside a granite fireplace in the living room. It does not provide much heat and not much flame, basically for looks. Plenty of parking space on the property for trucks and trailers and easy access in the winter to the house, lake, and trails.

In the spring, summer, fall, enjoy a 50 foot, 'L' shaped dock with sitting bench for docking your boats. The house has natural pine interior walls and hardwood floors throughout, a granite fireplace with electric fireplace insert, sauna in basement of house, Dish TV, DVD player, Wifi, kitchen stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc and a large deck overlooking the yard and lake. There are plenty of trees on either side of the yard for privacy and that north woods feel!

The small seasonal cabin sleeps 2 to 3 and is fully furnished! It has an older feel to it. It comes with the main house as package deal May through September. At times it might be available alone in May or October, please ask. Contact me please for rates, availability, and more pictures for the small cabin. No internet in small cabin. Queen bed, full bathroom, fold out couch in living room, fully furnished kitchen, TV with Blue Ray DVD player for movies, no Dish TV in small cabin. Deck, grill, knotty pine interior! Heat provided by electric stove unit and a space heater. Older style, seasonal cabin with a great view of beach and lake !

In the spring, summer, and fall, there is generally very little boat traffic tends to be on the lake which makes for a peaceful vacation. There is a private boat launch and large 50 foot dock with bench on the property for your boats. Plenty of water depth around the dock for safe docking (6-8 feet deep!) and plenty of parking space on the property for your vehicles and trailers. If you are interested in booking a walleye fishing guide, I can connect you with a guide who is one of the most well-known and respected guides on Vermilion for walleyes. He consistently brings groups out catching high numbers of walleyes each day year round. A very nice guy too! Excellent fishing for walleye, musky, bass, panfish, and northern on this bay. Enjoy your time on the lake water skiing, jet skiing, fishing, or just relaxing next to glacial ledge rock shorelines and islands!

Outside the kitchen and living room areas of the house is a large deck overlooking the yard and lake with a Weber charcoal grill. It is a perfect setting for preparing your feast! By the water, there is a campfire area, beach, picnic table, and boat launch area next to the dock.

Lake Vermilion is one of Minnesota's premier fisheries and lake vacation destinations. Excellent walleye, musky, bass, and northern fishing year round! Aggressive walleye and musky stocking programs. Much of the lake is undeveloped and has several islands and bays. It has been sited as one of the '10 most scenic lakes in the U.S.'--Sportsman's Connection Fishing Map Guide.

In addition to the natural beauty of the lake, there is plenty to do in the area! Lakeside restaurants, Fortune Bay Casino about 5 minutes away with a premier golf course, beach at McKinley Park, shops and art galleries at nearby Ely, Wolf Museum, and Bear Watching Centers.

Wonderful lake cabin

We had a great stay at this Lake Vermilion cabin. The cabins had plenty of space for group. Lots of beds to accommodate our large group. Beach is great and being able to launch our boat right next to the dock was very convenient! Looking forward to staying here again in the future!

We had 8 adult family members stay for a week so used both the main cabin and the smaller cabin. Lots of great fishing - hired a guide for one day early in our trip so knew where to go, which was very helpful. Both cabins are cozy, comfortable, and decorated great. Floors in the small cabin were quite slanted and a bit tricky for our older relative. Deck could use a bit of work and basement bedroom was a bit cold and musty so no one wanted to sleep there. Main cabin was super clean, which we loved. Great to have laundry at the house. Easy to find location. Feels private/secluded even tho neighbors were close by. Restaurant/bar was within walking distance. Fabulous mini-golf course close to cabin. Tower and Ely have good shopping and Ely's Wolf Center and Bear Center are cool. Beautiful views from both cabins! Overall, this is a wonderful place to stay! Would definitely stay again.
