About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Secluded Forest Retreat With The Little Devil Track River Running Through.

Open May - November this is a wilderness cabin with beaver, eagles, mink, moose, and silence. We are surrounded by forest all around and our two neighbors are rarely heard from or seen at all. The small river is accessible right out your front door, and kids like to splash, catch and net things!
But so many things to do beckon beyond the cabin property it's almost overwhelming. The Lake Superior Hiking Trail (which runs from Duluth to Canada) is very nearby. Devils Track Lake, a rather large lake has good fishing and swimming is down the road a couple of miles. The galleries, food and music in 'town' are extraordinary. Grand Marais really has become quite a hub for artists of all types. The North House Folk School is a one of a kind craftshop with adult classes and the Gunflint Tavern features local and national talent in a funky intimate atmosphere.
Almost half of the people who stay at our cabin are repeat visitors. When you read our guestbook you can see the fun (and quiet relaxation) unfold for so many, rain or shine.

We loved our stay on the river! The cabin was even more beautiful than we had hoped. So clean and spacious too! They had everything we needed to be able to relax and just enjoy our week. Our kids range from 10-16 and loved having the river and pond to paddle around in. Even in early June the water was warm enough for them get in. Only a few minutes out of town and perfectly located to be able to enjoy both Grand Marais and the Gunflint Trail. We hope to come back soon!

Great stay at cute cabin!

Hosts were great to confirm not too many steps and beds/baths on main level for my elderly parents. Cool sleeping loft for my teenaged son and he caught some trout in the stream!

Peaceful Cottage

Babbling brook created a calm atmosphere. Comfortable beds, hot water, handy location close to hunting trails and also to Grand Marais. Flies inside were annoying and some outlets/lamps didn’t work.

Relaxing little getaway

This was our second time staying in the cabin. Such a special place. The location is a perfect distance from town so that we could come back and prepare meals between exploring. Everything we needed was in the cabin. Absolutely perfect time. Thank you!

Perfect Place In The Woods To Unwind

The river runs through the front yard, flowing over rocks, creating a peaceful “white noise” situation, enjoyed throughout the house. “Cooler by the Lake” is a factor as well, our stay was the first week of August, in the 90’s to the south, but mid 60’s in the cabin during the day, and bumping 58 degrees after dark Comfortable throughout, so many nice touches, including well aged birch in ghe woodsbed!

Relaxing Time Away

This was the perfect place for our family to enjoy each other's company and being close to the big lake! We loved the little river in the front of the property, and the kids loved it even more. We enjoyed nature, each other and would love to return again in the future. This is by far the best family trip yet!

Friends’ Getaway

We had the BEST time at the Secluded Forest Retreat in Grand Marais. The location was private and beautiful, with our daily view of the little river out back. The amenities were perfect and the home offered lots of comfortable spaces. We loved the unique artwork and selection of books and movies. The kitchen was well equipped ands access to the grill was a bonus. We enjoyed taking a break from eating out and making our own meals. The location was close enough to town yet far enough out to take in the peace and quiet. It was just what we needed for our friends’ getaway to the North Shore.

Secluded getaway

We had a wonderful long weekend in this cozy cabin tucked away in the woods, but still a quick drive to town and lots of great hiking trails. One day it rained, but we were happy to sit by the fire, play games, and watch the rain come down through the big windows. This was our second stay at this cabin and we’d come back again!

So quiet! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch in the mornings reading books, with the creek babbling in the background. Kitchen was well stocked, linens were nice. Great stereo system. Clean. Easy to go into Grand Marais which was also a plus
