This cabin was in a fabulous setting and had a wonderful view of the lake. It was peaceful and the dock was great for swimming or fishing. We travel often and this was one of my favorite places or relaxation. The owners were great to work with and gave us information on things to do.

Ely was awesome! I haven't been there in over 40 years. There was so much more there than I imagined there would be! I loved the shopping, the museums, and the art galleries. It's a really cool place.
Ely is worth visiting!
Fun town with lots to see and do. Great shopping and restaurants!
nice small town and enough to explore for a long weekend. It's a long drive up there, so probably wouldn't do it very often.
Love the area very much!
