Moose Cabin at Wilderness Wind near Armstrong Lake near Ely, MN

We are asking our guests to bring their own sheets and pillow cases. Thank you for your understanding.



Moose cabin is a rustic log cabin with a kitchen with a water cooler to be filled from outdoor spigot, a dining area, a bedroom with a queen size bed and two twin beds in an enclosed sleeping porch and a nearby bathhouse with hot showers, lavatory sinks, and latrine toilets. Armstrong Lake is west of the cabins and therefore offers nightly sunset viewing at lakeside seating with a firepit for bonfires. Canoes and kayaks are available for use on the lake. A gravel swim beach near the ample lakeside seating provides fun family gathering.

5th annual girls trip!
This was our 5th year to Wilderness Wind and it was absolutely beautiful and amazing as per usual. Jay is awesome and Lulu is a great greeter! We stayed in Moose and loved every minute. Everything was clean and organized. We leave little trinkets hidden in the cabin every year, it's fun to see them moved to different spots☺️. We will definitely be back next year!!

The focus is the outdoors
The cabin is a place to sleep, eat & cook and it did its job spectacularly. Plenty of room for 3 people, a little tight with 4 - but workable.

Relaxing Weekend
Great place to get away from the rat race! Small, quiet, well-kept, simple. Nice lake, good for fishing! Resort has a great community fireplace and lots of kayaks and canoes to use. Proceeds go to a great organization helping troubled kids from the Chicago area. Quiet roads for walking/running. Close enough to Ely and Tower with plenty to do!

Cozy cabin
My kids and I stayed at Wilderness Wind in the Moose cabin. I chose this resort due to the location as it was near a few MN State Parks, something we do each summer! The cabin has a lot of character and met our needs for an upgraded camping experience. The resort is set up to do traditional camping tasks (e.g. dishes outside, bath house, etc). But also provides a few amenities like a refrigerator and stove for cooking. The view of the lake was amazing and we had access to kayaks and other watercraft for use if we wanted. Jay, the property manager was very kind and helpful. He shared information about the resort being a non-profit and how they support youth programming. That is pretty awesome!
