Excellent Stay and Wonderful Time

We have stayed in numerous VRBO rentals around Ely and in Northern Minnesota and all were excelent but this is the one we enjoyed the most. The house is great in all ways and the deck, yard, and firepit were perfect for us as was the location near the BWCA. Hosts were great to work with and we intend to visit again.

The Boundary Waters Fall Lake home proved to be a wonderful vacation home for my family. It was big, beautiful, and stocked with everything we needed to make our visit great. Kial was a delight to visit with and responded quickly to all my inquiries. The view was perfect and being able to catch fish right from the dock was so fun.

Fishing opener

This is a beautiful, well-maintained home that far exceeded our expectations. The location was ideal for accessing the BWCA and Fall Lake fishing spots. We were very pleased with the layout of the home. The screen porch and expansive deck were favorite spaces.

A wonderful 50th Anniversary vacation

The lake house was perfect in every way for doing what we love to do, which is spending time with family and enjoying nature. The set up was great for playing games, bird watching, dining in multiple areas.The views of the lake were amazing! Having our own deck was great for canoeing and fishing. We've stayed at many places and this was by far our favorite.

Birthday Getaway

Our parents and two teens spent a long weekend enjoying this beautiful property. The home was even better than the pictures and we had fun walking in the new fallen snow and cozying up afterwards with hot chocolate and a puzzle. Great location to get away.

All aspects of the cabin were clean and in excellent repair. Our whole family was able to relax and enjoy the solitude and each other's company. The sand beach was sufficient for the young ones.

Hygge on the Boundary

The cabin was so comfortable that we knew we would enjoy our visit the moment we opened the door. The property on the boundary of the Boundary Waters was great and had everything we needed to make a wonderful wintertime visit with family. With our binoculars and the binoculars on the porch windowsill, 2 of us at a time could view the wolf running across the snowcovered lake. Our hosts were so welcoming which made our journey special. Thank you,

Beautiful and inviting vacation home

Nestled in the woods on Fall Lake, our vacation home was beautiful and so homey. It met all of our needs-local boat rental, we could use the dock for the week. We loved the area for nightly campfires and star gazing. The little bench area our furballs and kids and grandkids loved making sandcastles and relaxing. It’s the perfect location and we will be sure to rent again in years to come. It’s close enough to town and far enough for privacy. We loved it

Wonderful time at the cabin!

Such a lovely property! We have been fortunate enough to be able to stay in this property multiple times. The cleanliness, beauty of the location, access to the water and the boundary waters, are all second only to the hospitality of the owners who are absolutely delightful. 10/10 recommend.
