Other things to note - 15 minutes away from a public boat launch on the Whitefish Chain - 15 minutes away from Crosslake - 35 minutes away from Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area While there isn't a boat launch onto our lake, you are more than welcome to bring your boat for any of the many public boat launches for neighboring lakes. We are ~15 minutes away from the Manhattan Beach boat launch on Big Trout Lake, which is attached to the Whitefish Chain. There is ample parking space at the end of the driveway for multiple cars East Woodlake is swimmable, but the beach & dock on our property is better for viewing—the lakeshore is filled with lily pads and isn't great for swimming. There are better swimming options in the area we are happy to direct you to! The cabin was recently equipped (May 2024) with central air conditioning! Even without air conditioning the cabin generally stays comfortable throughout the day as the home has dense tree coverage. In addition, there are a couple of ceiling fans in the loft area along with a few free-standing fans if you'd like more air circulation. The basement stays cool throughout the year and is a great place to relax out of the sun. A note about renovations: We're constantly updating and improving the cabin. We have new appliances and countertops as of July 2022, and plan to continue our renovations. We'd love to hear what you loved or wished you had after your stay to help us make the cabin the best it can be!
