Cabin vacation rentals in Ely

The cabin is a lovely hide-out from the world with lake views, roaming deer, privacy, a hot tub, and enough space to spread out and feel at home. The owners thought of every detail to make their guests comfortable. If you are looking for a place to pamper yourself, do fun activities around Ely, and reconnect with nature, this is the place for you! We appreciated how easy it was to get in, find what we needed, and focus on our trip.

Excellent place to retreat for a fun and relaxing weekend. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook meals. The sauna is an awesome addition to help with relaxation. Extremely beautiful area and the cabin is right on the lake. David was super helpful and always very responsive. Definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful time swimming, fishing off the dock (caught a nice sized large mouth bass & panfish) and boating. We enjoyed the paddle board, kayak and screened in porch. We used the fire pit one night before the mosquitoes came out. We didn’t use the hot tub. We rented a pontoon from Brett at Island View Resort. He also sold bait, gas and a map of the lake with tips for fishing the lake. We caught crappies, bass, panfish and northern. The bunkhouse was prefect for our two boys. Our daughter enjoyed the loft room. It was nice that there were 2 fans. The kitchen was well equipped and we liked having a large electric skillet. Didn’t use the washing machine except for washing the towels before we checked out. The beds were comfortable. We also liked the large dining room table -used it to play games in the evening. We’d definitely recommend getting peanut butter twists from Pattens restaurant in Orr. It was a very relaxing vacation. We’d definitely rent it again.

This cabin was wonderful. It fulfilled our needs while we were visiting family in the area. Location on the lake provided some beautiful sunsets. The host was great for communication. Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was an amazing place. A cabin in the middle of a winter wonderland. I never had an Airbnb stocked as good as this one. This place has Charme, is spacious and the beds are comfortable. It even had a garage - so we didn’t have to scrape snow off the car in the morning. The hot tub felt amazing at -18F outside. Thank you. It was a great stay

We had such a wonderful getaway staying at Anne & Daryl’s cabin! It was so warm and cozy with the gas fireplace, and the cabin was absolutely spotless when we arrived. With very comfortable furniture, we honestly felt right at home. The cabin is feet from the water which made ice fishing very accessible. Anne was very responsive and offered us to use a pack and play for our newborn for the weekend which was super thoughtful and handy. We’d highly recommend this cabin if you’re looking to get away, relax and enjoy the outdoors!

Great cabin on the lake. Perfect for us to have a few days away. Loved our stay!

This is the best cabin I’ve ever stayed at Erik is so nice and helpful everything we expected at more needs better pictures to do it justice

Great cabin — comfortable, clean, quiet. Well-appointed kitchen. Nicely decorated interior. Spacious rec room with a very large screen TV. Easy access to boat dock. Mike, the owner, was staying in another cabin close by, he was extremely helpful and friendly. The cabin itself is in the community of Crane Lake, on the water. It sits in a row of similar cabins. A small store (fisherman-oriented) and couple of bar/restaurants are nearby, easily walkable. We used this as a base for day trips (hiking and canoeing) into Voyageurs NP and the Boundary Waters. You can also walk to and hike the Vermillion Gorge Trail from the cabin — recommended.

We stayed at John's place in the winter, and it exceeded our expectations. The place was clean and well-stocked. Running the log stove and sauna were a must, as they were the only way to stay warm. We saw a wolf and many other wildlife during our stay. Snowshoeing on the nearby lakes were a highlight. The trails marked by Dave were easy to follow, along with the maps they provided. If you are looking for a peaceful trip surrounded by nature, you found the right place! Thanks to John and Dave for being so helpful and responsive.

if you're looking for a private and peaceful get away I would highly recommend this spot - the cabin was warm and inviting and the surround area is just beautiful. terra is a great host with quick responses and helpful information. thank you for the great weekend terra!

If willing to make the drive away from all signs of civilization, whether it be for golfing, skiing, camping, roadtripping or otherwise, Jody’s place will always come out on top. The Bear Den Lodge exceeded all expectations, and had so many fun touches throughout the place in addition to its reliable amenities. My party made use of most offerings such as the screened hut, sauna, grill, large backyard, game room, washer/dryer, and the fancy bath tub! There were hardly any issues, the place was pristinely prepared, welcoming to guests and bears (only fake ones), and secluded. The only problem that occurred was a fire alarm being set off by the grilling we did. Due to the location of the grill, it may be more susceptible to triggering the fire alarm. To combat this, we opened a few windows in the front of the house (away from the grill), and turned on all fans and air control units (which were excellently reliable). In short, tremendous place, and I would certainly revisit!

Perfect place for a quiet, relaxing getaway. Well appointed kitchen with just the right equipment to be able to cook nice meals. Setting was beautiful, we really enjoyed watching the house birds and the changing weather on the water.

Staying here was so peaceful - like stepping into another world where time stood still! My husband and I were amazed at how different the Lakes were for being separated only a small channel at the north side of the cabin. Sunrise over 1 lake was met at Sunset over the other - spectacular! The fire pit was incredible and at night the lakes are as smooth as glass! The outdoor shower was fantastic and there were so many things to do outside from the sauna, canoe, kayak, peddle boat and floaties to all the games and books inside the cabin. Kim was incredibly responsive and we can't wait to go back!

Great cabin with great surroundings. Sauna was a nice addition and the hosts provided a very accommodating experience.

Host was kind enough to cover bag of firewood. Bedding was provided, and so was basic kitchenware. The listing indicated no "essentials" and I didn't realize there were no towels available.

I’ll summarize by stating this is the best rental property we’ve ever had on Airbnb. The home is very comfortable, well laid out, attractive, and we were greeted by unexpected details such as a Christmas tree and new years celebration kits that we happily used. Michael & co’s communication is fantastic and their disposition is as well. Thank you for making our holiday family reunion so memorable.

This was our second trip and again, it was quiet and so relaxing. We made good use of the wood stove and the kitchen this time around! The pups enjoyed their limited exploring due to the cold but made the most of it. We saw some deer this time and bunnies. This place is just perfect if you like quiet 😊

Great space and location, easy to get to many of the state parks and hiking trails. If you enjoy star gazing there is little to no light pollution and a clear view from the deck for enjoying the night sky.

Landy's place was a quaint, and rustic cabin in the gorgeous and pristine setting of the Northwoods. We loved waking up to the fog rising from the Lake, and having our morning coffee by the water. Described as expected, with no electricity or running water we packed as if we were tent camping and we felt prepared for our stay. Our family stayed up late by the light of kerosene lamps playing cards. It was a great bonding experience and a welcome get away from wifi and technology. The boat rental was a plus, and locals were very friendly and welcoming to us.

We loved our stay at Tad’s cabin on Wakemup Bay! The kitchen was fabulous, and well stocked to make cooking easy. The beds were very comfortable. When we unexpectedly lost power, Tad came to check on us. The power outage was wide spread, and due to wind… nothing to do with the cabin. Tad or Ruby replied quickly if we had a question, and communication was great. We played lots of pool, and went fishing everyday. My son was thrilled with the northern pike, walleye and small mouth bass he caught. It is great swimming off the dock, and I appreciated the stairs up to the dock! The area is quieter than other places we’ve stayed, and we really liked that. We could walk our dog right from the cabin, and there were grassy areas for her to play. We definitely would love to return next summer! Thank you Tad!
