Lakefront cabin on beautiful Bear Island Lake. Bear Island Lake is located approximately 12 miles southwest of Ely, MN. The lake is about 2,300 acres and has at least 20 islands. The cabin includes a dock that is suitable for small watercraft and a landing area that is perfect for launching a kayak or canoe.There are hiking and ATV trails nearby in Bear Island State Forest.The public boat ramp is about 1/4 mile down the road. There is a small sand beach at the public boat ramp. The cabin has a fully furnished kitchen, full bath and both bedrooms have new carpeting, and the living area has a picture window facing the lake. The cabin shares a driveway with the owner who lives next door.
The cabin offered everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts were welcoming and friendly while offering all the privacy I could hope for. I plan to stay there again if the timing and my schedule allow it.
Great view of lake. Fishing was great. Weather was decent but a little windy. Didnât keep us from catching fish:). Cabin was the nicest weâve stayed at in NE Minnesota for the money. Highly recommend if u want peace and quiet and good fishing. Owners were awesome and helpful in anything u needed.
My husband and I live next door to the cabin. We moved to the area from Chicago in 2013. I enjoy canoeing, hiking, camping, fishing, snowshoeing, and cross country skiing. I enjoy hosting because it gives me a chance to meet new people who enjoy the outdoors.
