"This is a wonderful property in a beautiful setting, hosted by truly thoughtful people. The house is bright, open, and airy, with lovely views that make it just as enjoyable to relax inside as it is to explore outdoors.Our stay was too short to enjoy everything, but we especially loved the sauna, the refreshing freshwater shower, and the classic Finnish experience of jumping straight into the lake. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with dishes, cookware, utensils, and even pantry staples for guests to use, which is an especially thoughtful touch in such a remote location (there is a gas station/market nearby but we never went).Kim and Jay provide a detailed but easy-to-follow guide to the home, amenities, and local attractions. Everything was simple to use, including the sauna, washer and dryer, grill, and Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable throughout our stay, and the house was stocked with plenty of towels. Communication before, during, and after our stay was excellent, and check-in and check-out were seamless.As lovely as the home is, we spent most of our time outside exploring Voyageurs. If you do not bring a boat, we highly recommend renting one or taking a guided tour, since many of the park’s best experiences are on the water. Our favorite hike, Blind Ash Bay Trail, was just minutes from the home. This is an outstanding place to stay for anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of Voyageurs National Park. We would happily stay here again."

"Beautiful property in a great location. We rented a boat from Nelson’s and all was easy and exactly what we needed to fish the week away. House is well appointed and quiet. Would highly recommend and will rebook on our next trip."

"Just left after a ten night stay. To be on a private island with the lake on all sides with wilderness pines on the opposite shore while the dogs roamed all through the grass and bushes was heaven"
Lumberjack Lodge - Modern waterfront home with breathtaking Crane Lake sunsets
8/10 Good
"The place is nice. A couple of small criticisms; it feels slightly unfinished. Still some loose baseboards throughout the house and construction debris in garage. A fair amount of weekend construction on the neighboring property. This feels transitional and I suspect will be resolved. I would stay here again, but felt that the pricing was a little aggressive."

"Lovely Trip #4 at Gary’s Lake HomeWe’ve had another wonderful stay at Gary’s beautiful lake home. The property offers stunning views, cozy charm, and unique architectural character—especially the vaulted ceilings and warm natural light that make the space feel so inviting.That said, this year we did notice some changes in cleanliness compared to past visits. We found a few items left behind in the master bedroom and bathroom (clothing, hair ties, even trash from a previous guest), and we also had some issues with mice getting into food and leaving droppings in drawers. In past years, traps were provided, but we didn’t find any this time. I’d recommend storing dry goods in sealed containers if you stay here.The furniture and mattresses are beginning to show their age, but the home overall remains comfortable, cozy, and truly special. Despite the challenges this visit, we still love returning here and hope to see a bit more attention to maintenance and cleanliness for future guests."
