The Ferny Fern: Charming Cabin near Grand Marais
Enjoy serene North woods seclusion just two and a half miles from Grand Marais! At the end of a foot path you'll find yourself at this charming off-grid cabin set in the forests of the Lake Superior bluff. This quaint cabin is filled with windows bringing views of the surrounding woods. It features a polished/rustic interior complete with well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and wood stove. The hammocks, deck, campfire, and path to the nearby Fall river invite guests outdoors! One of a kind Northern getaway! A short drive up the hill from Lake Superior, and three hundred fifty yards along a beautiful wooded footpath will bring you to this unusually secluded and ultra cozy North Shore cabin. There are some seasonal views of Lake Superior from here, but the real allure of this cabin is the beautiful spot it's been carefully set on. There is a wide variety of North woods flora and fauna, meandering creeks, and the gorgeous Fall River in your back yard... all of this while being within easy reach of Lake Superior, Grand Marais, Lutsen, Gunflint trail, etc. It's a great place to appreciate dark starry skies and total silence. Guests who walk the trail quietly will routinely bump into deer, grouse, eagles, ravens, pileated woodpeckers and less frequently fox, bears, wolves, and even moose. The many South facing windows invite sunshine throughout the cabin while overlooking the surrounding wood. The deck, hammocks, and campfire area make for a relaxing outdoor space. The clean cozy comfort of this charming cabin is a fun contrast to the wild landscape that surrounds it . A queen bed in the spacious bedroom and a comfortable futon in the living area allow up to four guests a good night's rest. A well equipped kitchen with propane stove and oven, over 30 gallons of water supply, ice stocked cooler, dishes, pots and pans, cleaning supplies, etc. allow for great meals inside (or use the campfire grill for an outdoor cookout). The wood stove quickly takes off any chill in the spring or fall. Some will find it a great place to unwind and explore, never leaving the property during their stay, while others will take advantage of this cabins close proximity to the great restaurants and shops of Grand Marais as well as the Lake Superior Shoreline, waterfalls, and endless hikes within the area. While at the cabin, we invite guests to freely explore the woods, creeks, and River on the property. Because there are no fences or obvious markers along property lines, we ask that you review the map of the area to avoid walking through neighbor's property. We also ask guests to leave a buffer area around the neighboring cabin on the property. To help maintain the feeling of seclusion, please avoid being within sight of the neighboring cabin (with a couple cabins on 26 acres it's pretty easy to do). We live about five miles from the cabin and try to offer guests a feeling of seclusion with the ability to be there to help when needed. Great hikes, fishing, and small town charm along the shore of the world's largest lake! You're going to need wheels. In early April and late October, snow is a possibility so all wheel drive can help. This is an amazing place for adults and children to relax and explore, but please be aware of some potential pitfalls. Especially with small children, consider the woods can be discombobulating and one can lose their way if away from a path. There are several creeks and a larger River that at times are meandering, but at other times rushing and cold. There are wild animals living amongst you. While bear and wolf issues are extremely rare, but they're presence in the area is frequent and should be noted. Probably the biggest concern is that guests may not properly stow away trash, recycling, or food , resulting in a returning bear. For the sake of future guests and the bear please be careful of your food and garbage.
