Beautiful Vermilion Property w Sauna, Beach, Great Location

Beautiful vacation get away. In the winter, the main house sleeps up to 7 and there is easy access to miles of north woods snowmobile trails and the lake for snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and ice fishing. Dish TV and Wifi. Walleye ice fishing house rental contact information is available. Panfish/ Crappie ice fishing information also available. The casino is 5 minutes away and there is an awesome wolf museum in Ely to visit in the winter. Giants Ridge downhill and cross-country skiing is close. After your day in the snow, a sauna in the basement awaits to warm you up!

This property has a main house and small seasonal cabin on Lake Vermilion! It's in Daisy Bay - a prime, central location on the lake. The main house is available year round including winter, sleeps 7. In summer months, May through September, the main house plus the small seasonal cabin come as a package deal, you get both - whole property. The seasonal one bedroom cabin sleeps 2 to 3.

The property is 1.65 acres so plenty of space. This is a 2000 square foot main house with plenty of space! Enjoy your vacation in this northwoods updated, quiet home on a premier north Minnesota lake on the edge of the BWCA. There is 175 feet of shoreline with a sand beach for swimming or relaxing in the summer and easy access to the lake year round. There is a boat launching area next to the dock also. Perfect for family vacations, fishing, ice fishing, and snowmobiling groups. Also an excellent getaway for people wanting to go up north for that relaxing, quiet escape!

Dual propane central furnace and also baseboard heat in the winter. There is an electric fireplace insert with a small flame inside a granite fireplace in the living room. It does not provide much heat and not much flame, basically for looks. Plenty of parking space on the property for trucks and trailers and easy access in the winter to the house, lake, and trails.

In the spring, summer, fall, enjoy a 50 foot, 'L' shaped dock with sitting bench for docking your boats. The house has natural pine interior walls and hardwood floors throughout, a granite fireplace with electric fireplace insert, sauna in basement of house, Dish TV, DVD player, Wifi, kitchen stocked with pots, pans, silverware, etc and a large deck overlooking the yard and lake. There are plenty of trees on either side of the yard for privacy and that north woods feel!

The main house sleeps up to 7 people and is available year round. It has 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom with shower upstairs. The main level has two couches and a bathroom with a toilet and sink. The basement has two separate single beds and a full bathroom with a shower. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a queen size bed plus an extra single mattress in the closet if needed for extra sleeping space. The second bedroom upstairs also has a queen bed. The third bedroom upstairs has a bunk bed made of two single beds. Good Wifi in the main house.

The small seasonal cabin sleeps 2 to 3 and is fully furnished! It has an older feel to it. It comes with the main house as package deal May through September. At times it might be available alone in May or October, please ask. Contact me please for rates, availability, and more pictures for the small cabin. No internet in small cabin. Queen bed, full bathroom, fold out couch in living room, fully furnished kitchen, TV with Blue Ray DVD player for movies, no Dish TV in small cabin. Deck, grill, knotty pine interior! Heat provided by electric stove unit and a space heater. Older style, seasonal cabin with a great view of beach and lake !

In the spring, summer, and fall, there is generally very little boat traffic tends to be on the lake which makes for a peaceful vacation. There is a private boat launch and large 50 foot dock with bench on the property for your boats. Plenty of water depth around the dock for safe docking (6-8 feet deep!) and plenty of parking space on the property for your vehicles and trailers. If you are interested in booking a walleye fishing guide, I can connect you with a guide who is one of the most well-known and respected guides on Vermilion for walleyes. He consistently brings groups out catching high numbers of walleyes each day year round. A very nice guy too! Excellent fishing for walleye, musky, bass, panfish, and northern on this bay. Enjoy your time on the lake water skiing, jet skiing, fishing, or just relaxing next to glacial ledge rock shorelines and islands!

Outside the kitchen and living room areas of the house is a large deck overlooking the yard and lake with a Weber charcoal grill. It is a perfect setting for preparing your feast! By the water, there is a campfire area, beach, picnic table, and boat launch area next to the dock.

Lake Vermilion is one of Minnesota's premier fisheries and lake vacation destinations. Excellent walleye, musky, bass, and northern fishing year round! Aggressive walleye and musky stocking programs. Much of the lake is undeveloped and has several islands and bays. It has been sited as one of the '10 most scenic lakes in the U.S.'--Sportsman's Connection Fishing Map Guide.

In addition to the natural beauty of the lake, there is plenty to do in the area! Lakeside restaurants, Fortune Bay Casino about 5 minutes away with a premier golf course, beach at McKinley Park, shops and art galleries at nearby Ely, Wolf Museum, and Bear Watching Centers.

Annual Birthday Trip
The listing should clearly include information regarding stairs to bedrooms and bathrooms. The host was told when I booked that it was a birthday trip for my 97 year old mother. Although the listing said there was a full size bathroom on the main floor, it has no shower. Our mother had to be helped downstairs to a full bath. The main floor "bed" fold out couch was in very bad shape for sitting and sleeping. The staircase to go upstairs to a bedroom or full bath would have been impossible for her even with help. The rest of the house was fine for the rest of us but she did not enjoy the four night trip.

Perfect family getaway
From reservation to check in, through our stay to check out, the owner was a great communicator. The property was perfect for our family of 8 adults and two young kids. It helped the weather was great and for August fishing we did really well. Hanging out on the deck overlooking the lake was a great way to start and end the day. The bedtime we head to Lake Vermilion we will be trying to get this place again.

Had a very nice stay. Very clean and cozy. Loved the private boat landing. Caught some fish and the fish cleaning house came in handy. We had a great week of weather which led to a lot of dock and deck relaxing. Overall I would recommend to future stays.

Great location for spring fishing
Solid well kept property as described - everything worked just fine. Lots of solid deck space & good patio furniture. Didn't need to leave Daisy Bay to find excellent walleye and smallmouth fishing. Conveniently located to Tower as well. First stay here for our group of old guy fishing buddies - will likely stay here again.

Giants Ridge ski trip
It was a nice and very spacious cabin for our family of three. It could easily accompany another family. The kitchen if fully equipped. It has a beautiful view on the lake. It’s only 35 min from the Giants Ridge ski resort, which was the reason we came here in the first place. After skiing all day we really enjoy the sauna downstairs. The only downside, you can’t close the door tight in sauna and hot air escapes very fast, so it’s really hard to make it very hot. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Cozy winter stay with great communication from host.
The host was very proactive in communicating all the details we'd need through calls, email and text in the days leading up to our stay, and was easy to reach for questions. The property itself is very comfortable (we mostly stayed indoors due to the cold) and has a great layout with clean bathrooms and plenty of blankets. The only thing we were missing was a roll of paper towels - everything else was right where we'd expect to find it. I'd be very interested in coming back when it's warmer to enjoy the deck and spend some more time outdoors.
