If I could give this place more than five stars, I would. We booked this private lake lodge for my husband’s birthday, and it was exactly what we needed. The moment we arrived, everything slowed down. The stillness, privacy, and open sky are something you just don’t find anymore. This cabin is cozy rustic done right—warm, inviting, and thoughtfully put together in a way that makes you feel comfortable immediately. Every detail adds to the experience, from the peaceful lake views out every window to the quiet that surrounds you day and night. We brought his 18-year-old son, and he loved it just as much. Being on the water, unplugging, and having true peace and quiet gave all of us a chance to reset and actually be present together. The privacy is incredible—it truly feels like your own little world. The boat, dock, fire pit, and trees wrapping around the property create that hidden escape feeling that’s hard to describe. Mitch was an exceptional host—genuinely kind, responsive, and very accommodating. You can tell he takes pride in making sure guests feel welcome and taken care of. Everything was seamless from start to finish. I almost don’t want to leave this review because I’d love to keep this place to myself, but it’s too special not to share. We will absolutely be back.

Overall our experience was very good. The lodge was clean, in good condition, and well-equipped. The owner texted me the entry code and our arrival was smooth and without hassle. The area is private and secluded, which was just what we wanted. One minor quibble: I was drawn to the place in part because there was a fireplace pictured and listed among the property amenities. This turned out to be decorative fireplace, not a functional one. While we did not allow this disappointment to spoil our stay, I would suggest editing the description so it is not misleading.

Cute lakeside cottage on a beautiful piece of rural property. Meticulously clean cottage. Kitchen was well equipped. Living room has an extremely comfortable reclining sofa that looked and felt brand new. Also a comfortable recliner chair. Nice big screen TV. Cabinet full of DVDs. Stereo, board games and puzzles. Comfortable mattress in the master bedroom and trundle bed in the other bedroom that would be ideally suited for children or teenagers. Great outdoor space with grill, fire pit and patio area. Large laundry room and nice 3 season sunroom. Beautiful view of the lake from the dining area. Our host Mitch responded quickly to our questions and went out of his way to ensure that our needs and comfort were met. We highly recommend "Little Lodge" and we look forward to staying again in the future.

The wind kept us from fishing as much as we would have liked but it was still a nice place to just hang out for the weekend. My husband has a bad back and the bed was comfortable for him. This rarely happens when we stay places so that was a big win for us.

Great little cabin. If you're looking for upscale cabin, this is not for you. If you're looking for a perfect little cabin to fish or ride, this is the place to go!! Access to ATV trails nice and close, no trailering just get in sxs and go.

We had the most wonderful stay at this cute cabin! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the peaceful setting and the charm of the property. The cabin itself was cozy, clean, and full of character—exactly what we were hoping for in a relaxing getaway.One of the highlights was definitely the fishing. The private access to the water made it easy to spend hours casting a line, and we caught several fish. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, and evenings by the fire after a day on the water felt magical.The cabin is well-equipped with everything you need, yet still maintains that authentic “off-the-beaten-path” feeling. We loved the quiet mornings on the porch with coffee, watching the wildlife, and truly disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.Our hosts were friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We left feeling refreshed, recharged, and already planning our next trip back.If you’re looking for a place that combines rustic charm, modern comfort, and unbeatable fishing right at your doorstep, this cabin is a gem. Highly recommend!

The full set of extra amenities in the kitchen were appreciated, we liked the ability to do laundry, and the view was excellent. Mitch was great in communicating with us and making this a stress-free stay. If you want to go to Northern Minnesota, you won't find a better value than the "Little Lodge!"

The Little Lodge is exactly as was pictured. Kitchen was stocked with every tool we needed, and the bed was so comfortable it made sleeping in a breeze. I loved having my morning coffee on the back deck looking out at the lake, enjoying the many different birds. It's a very easy drive from Virginia or Babbit, and getting to Ely is also super easy and quick. I work a high pressure job, and have a hard time relaxing, but this place was wonderful. We used the boat and spent a day in the sun on the lake. Everything was set up to make our stay easy. I definitely plan on coming back. Thank you Mitch!!
