This cabin is so cute and cozy! Oh how I wish I could stay longer!! Would happily live in this cabin forever lol. Amenities are great, you have everything you'd want or need in there. The bathroom/shower was so nice and warm with a built in heater, hot water, and high pressure. Fireplace is great if you know what you're doing and it was just cool enough for us to enjoy. Jeff and his dog are a hoot :) thanks for having us!

Northwoods beauty
Charming rustic cabin that is just modern enough. Plumbing, electricity, heat and a gorgeous lake. Cozy place to just nap, read a book, take a walk or head in to Ely for dinner. Jeff is a handsome off landlord. He figures if you want info ..... you'll ask. Otherwise you rarely see him. Loved my time here. Didn't want to go back to the real world.

Great Cabin!
Great place to stay and unwind. My family and I really enjoyed the cabin and all it's amenities. Jeff has thought of everything! Best supplied place I've ever stayed at! Very relaxing, and Jeff and Honzo were great hosts! Really enjoyed the fireplace and all the wood provided, and kindling too! My wife and son really loved the cabin also. Jeff was kind enough to share his boat too, along with fishing advice! Awesome stay, and really had fun, and loved the fire pit outside too!

Perfect log cabin for recharging.
The photos online do not show the charm of this property. Jeff was super helpful and his dog, Hanzo was so sweet. We would definitely stay here again! It is a great place to get away and recharge - it is a real jewel.

Tranquility
The Cabin is an authentic log cabin from years gone by. The cabin is rustic and the furnishings are eclectic and more than fill the small space. There is not much cupboard or drawer space for your belongings. The bookshelves are filled with interesting reading material regarding the area and it’s mining history. There are flowers in handmade pots gracing the outside of the cabin and vases of fresh cut flowers throughout the cabin—a nice touch seldom seen in most cabin rentals. The owner was onsite upon arrival to explain the little nuances of the cabin and responsive to phone calls, but not to texts. Hanzo, the owner’s dog, was quiet, but exceedingly welcoming. The location is off the beaten path and perfect for anyone who enjoys the solitude of a quiet lake and peaceful wooded surroundings. With each passing day comes a greater appreciation for the tranquility found in this special place in the Minnesota Northwoods.

Cabin had everything
The cabin had everything that was needed. Jeff let us use a boat and that was great so we could explore the lake. Things were clean and you could find what you needed. The host’s house is very close and although we had space, we didn’t realize it would literally be feet away; which made it feel less private than we would have liked.

We really enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin. We used it as a base camp for day trips into the BWCAW and exploring Ely. The host was gracious and helpful. Having Hanzo( the dog)'s enthusiastic greetings added joy to the stay :)

Pleasant cabin with character
We enjoyed our stay with our dog - and Jeff’s dog Honzo, who is a charmer! We enjoyed reading on the dock and Jeff lent is his canoe for a paddle on the lake. Jeff’s cabin is well outfitted for a one room place - even had fresh flowers. It’s not far to Ely for groceries.

Great little Retreat off the beaten path.
This was our second time staying, and we plan on coming back. Jeff was very accommodating and resourceful knowledge of the area. Very quiet location with lake access and plenty of wildlife to see. This time of year was really bad for the mosquitoes but we were able to spray so we could grill out and have a campfire for smores. The only thing you really need to bring is food and clothes, the cabin is well supplied. Thank you Jeff for the amazing stay and hope to be back soon. Darrian, Tiffany, and Bucea.

Relax and Recharge. Will DEFINITELY be staying again!
The White Iron Haus was everything we were looking for in a quick getaway. The cabin was warm and toasty with the -20 below weather. It was very cozy and loved the decor. The option of having the fire place or propane heat was great. It was great to have indoor plumbing with hot water, definately a plus. The cabin is fully stocked with dishes, utensils, and toiletries. You only really need to bring yourself, clothes, and food. The host, Jeff, was great. He made sure we had enough wood for the fireplace and the drive way plowed. He is very knowledgeable about current events in town, the boundry waters, and overview of the land. Despite the cabin being close to his home, we felt there was enough privacy by how the property is set up. We will definately be staying again once it warms up some.
