Only thing that could be a touch better would be a slightly bigger motor boat (was a bit small when all 4 of us were in it). Great host ##### Pavil C.

Got lucky with the Northern lights and beautiful weather. Bed is comphy. It's as described with being "off grid" but it certainly isn't roughing it. Its luxury camping for sure. Kitchen is well equipped and we did most meals over a week on site. Lake had significant algae while we were there. Miners lake close by was great for a dip. ##### David W. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy F. 12 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Very nice cabin. Clean and well kept. Having the John boat and canoe were a nice bonus seeing we were on an island. Lol. Host was very responsive and Rob was too. While we were there it got cold, so we needed to use the gas burner cast iron heating unit. Couldn’t get it lit and they were very helpful on that. Reading the instructions became helpful. Another knee slapper. Push in the knob while igniting with the pilot button. The instructions were on the floor attached to the legs. Hard to read, so maybe put those instructions in the great information binder that was there. Unfortunately for us, the four days we were there it got cold, windy, and rainy. Just kept coming at us. Late in the season I guess. We thought to use the john-boat with trawling motor and regular motor to fish and go into Ely, but with water and rain, we hunkered down. Great overall experience. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bb670f8b-f786-4bd3-a915-622ea71d9668-1757683376806.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/143d5df0-885a-4e7c-a548-2f7ca425c334-1757683376453.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5fadd1ba-7b48-4991-ac22-444ba39e104c-1757683376472.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/129870bc-cccf-4e60-ad31-643c746dc81f-1757683376503.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nancy F.

We were looking for a boundary waters "light" experience as we are getting a little older and struggle with the full wilderness adventure. This cabin fit the bill perfectly. We enjoyed how fully stocked and appropriated the cabin was for being off the grid. We were able to cook numerous delicious meals. There was plenty of water, TP, paper towels, bedding and towels. We used the provided boat daily as we went fishing and into Ely for a fun day. We hooked up the trolling motor to help maneuver the boat while fishing. Overall, it was a very relaxing week on Loon Island. If you are looking for an off the grid experience, this place is for you. But you can still turn on the lights for a while and make some toast! ##### Brad P.

The cabin and little island were just perfect! I love the way Neil has carved out little areas to capture all the beauty surrounding you in Shagawa. The hammock area for reading or napping! The sunset sitting spot (perfect to share some wine and star gaze)! The fire pit area to host a small gathering of family to toast marshmallows and eat chili!! Perfection! The cabin is well appointed and cozy. We were very comfortable thru some wild weather and temperature swings! The provided boat allowed us easy access to Ely and all the fun there too! Couldn’t be more pleased! Also, caretakers Rob and Lee were friendly, responsive to questions and super helpful. FIVE sparkly stars!! Thank you!! ##### Lisa G. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erin S. 3 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome Mini-Moon location My husband and I recently got married and wanted a few days to relax, have little human contact, and spend some time outdoors. And this property absolutely delivered. Dave, the caretaker, was super easy to contact and always answered quickly whenever we reached out with questions before our stay. He helped load and unload all of our things as well, which was unnecessary but much appreciated. There was plenty of water provided for our 3 night stay. And even though it was cloudy, we had no issues with using the solar power to charge phones and to have the lights on for a few hours at night. The linens were clean, and the property was well kept. Our only complaint is that the fishing was better around the lake, but we heard everyone was having a hard time so we just enjoyed dinner at the Grand Ely Lodge one night instead of fish. If you’re looking for a place to disconnect, drink coffee in nature (while being close to civilization) and relax. Then this is your place. Definitely going to come back someday. ##### Erin S. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew B. 2 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had an amazing time staying at the cabin on Loon Island. The cabin is beautiful, and is in fantastic condition. It has a full kitchen with all the pots, pans, plates, utensils, etc. you will need for cooking. The solar powered lights work extremely well, and we never had an issue using lights at night and charging devices during the day/night. Showering is simple using the collected rain water in the barrels outside and a battery powered shower head.Having the boat is awesome, and works very well for fishing and simply exploring the lake. It's a small motor so you won't be zipping around the lake, but it serves its purpose very well. We also enjoyed using the paddle boat and canoe.Outside the cabin there is also a firepit with a grill attachment that we loved to use, a charcoal grill, and a gas grill. There are a couple different places to hangout and have great views of the sunset as well. It is incredibly peaceful listening to the loons as the sun goes down.We had no issues organizing our stay with Neil and the caretaker Rob, and it was very easy checking in and out.Overall, our stay was wonderful. It exceeded our expectations, and we will definitely be back. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/58b68c3e-7b55-43f2-bc83-16cb08c6b0f6-1754171403046.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Andrew B.

Everything was wonderful again this trip. Dave who picks you up is a great guy and willing to answer any questions and help out however he can. The cabin is outfitted with everything you need and the boat is perfect for the lake. Thanks again! And we’ll be back for sure. ##### Gregory D.

We really enjoyed our time on Loon Island. The cabin was spectacular as was the quality of our stay. We enjoyed fishing with the provided motorboat and enjoyed a few walleye dinners. We left feeling restored and reset. Thank you! ##### John B.
