Wakemup Narrows Northwoods Cabin On Beautiful Lake Vermilion MN

This cozy 3-bedroom cabin was lovingly built by our father and uncle in the 1960's and 70's. It is situated about 50 feet down a short path / staircase to the shore of beautiful Lake Vermilion with a great view of the sunset from the attached deck where you can hear loons calling in the evening.

The cabin is fully furnished with a king in Eagle Bedroom 1, two sets of custom-built pine bunkbeds in the middle Forest Animals Bedroom 2 and a hand-made pine double bed in the Fishing Bedroom 3.

The entire cabin has tongue-in-groove pine board walls and ceilings and newly refinished pine board floors. The great room features a log-burning fireplace and a wall of windows facing the lake with a comfortable green leather loveseat and matching chair and a pine dining table with room for 6.

The full kitchen is well-stocked with a stove, full refrigerator/freezer, microwave and plenty of dishes, utensils, pots & pans and small appliances. The tiled bathroom includes a flush toilet, shower, sink and large mirrored vanity with storage for bathroom essentials.

The property gets regular visits from local wildlife (many kinds of birds, frogs, deer, turtles, raccoons, mink and beavers, even an occasional pelican sighting). Don't be surprised if the friendly resident chipmunks want to make friends as they scrounge for (unsalted) peanuts.

It’s just a short walk to a small store where you can purchase candy or beverages (including bottle shop + on-water gas for boats). The owners live next door if you have questions or need something.

This place is amazing. It has everything one could possibly think of. The cabin is beautiful, cozy and the beds were very comfortable. Lisa and Phil were very pleasant. The location on the lake was perfect, so calm and not a lot of boat traffic. Made for sitting out on the deck very peaceful. I would highly recommend this property to anyone and everyone. We plan to return to this little oasis! Thank you Lisa and Phil for your great hospitality!

Perfect for us!
This cabin is cozy and comfortable in every way, very clean, nicely decorated, and stocked with absolutely everything you could want or need and more! The hosts are friendly, helpful and accommodating. We especially appreciated their help with parking our 22’ boat. We loved the quieter location on the narrows, watching the loons, and especially a northern lights display one night. We’ve stayed at numerous VRBOs, and this definitely takes first place in how well it’s managed and cared for. We just left yesterday and are already booked for next year!

Lisa and Phil were the perfect hosts! The cabin is cozy and has everything you need. We had a great time and would recommend this without hesitation. Phil and Lisa went the extra mile replacing an inner tube for pulling kids behind boat which was a big highlight. I didn't bring my golf clubs and Phil allowed me to use his to play the Wilderness at Fortune Bay, amazing course and experience! Thank you again!

Can’t beat this Northwoods Cottage
Well kept with everything you need! Beautiful lake front for swimming and playing with all the toys (water bike, kayak, paddle boat). Good dock for tying up your own boat. Close enough to town to run in for forgotten items, yet truly in the wilderness. Can see the stars and hear the loons calling. Terrific place for a family vacation!

Perfect spot!
Sweet little cabin with friendly hosts. My husband loved the fishing and was able to catch Pike, Walleye, Small Mouth Bass and Sunnies. I loved that we didn't have to keep our dog on a leash when he was outside. He loved trying to catch the chipmunks and even did a Tom Cruise impersonation by sliding sideways half way across the hosts deck in pursuit of one. We had a great time and look forward to visiting again. Thanks Phil and Lisa!

Great week!
We stayed 5 nights, clean, cozy, comfortable. It’s very nice that the property is located in a NO WAKE ZONE of the lake. Good pan fish fishing right off the dock. Kitchen has everything you could ask for and accessible. The property is tucked back in the woods was a little difficult to maneuver our tritoon (24 foot on a bunk trailer) in the driveway. Shouldn’t be any issues for anything smaller. Very close to a bot landing which. Overall great week and great results place to stay!!!!!!

Great location, well stocked property
Cute cabin and very well stocked. Owner has thought of everything. Great location near 3 resorts so buying bait and boat gas convenient. Especially loved sitting by the fireplace and watching the sunsets on cool nights.
