Perfect Burntside Lake Getaway

We loved our stay at this cabin. It's located in a calmer part of the lake, which was great for kayaking and canoeing. The owners were very easy to get a hold of and overall, just an overall amazing time! We will be back!

Summer getaway

We had a great few days with family. Comfortable place for us to sleep, gather and enjoy the lake. Close to Ely, easy access, yet private and so quiet! The loons sang us to sleep. We highly recommend, and we plan to return!

We have a family cabin on Burntside but it was full. We decided to check out another spot. It was beautiful.

North Country Comfort

We truly enjoyed our stay and found the cabin to have all the comforts of home made special by its Burntside Lake location. The evenings during our stay were cool enough to enjoy a lakeside campfire, a glass of fine wine and the call of the Loons at sunset....doesn't get much better than that.

From the minute we arrived we were so pleasantly surprised. The cabin is situated on a sandy lakeshore & the interior of home is waaay nicer in person. The pics do not do it justice. It’s fully furnished to make the stay so comfortable. We had the best time & hope to return

Nice Cabin

We are seniors and could not figure out the Smart TV. The bathroom needs more towel racks. Other than that, we really enjoyed the cabin. It was clean and comfortable with a great view of the lake.

One suggestion

Beautiful property! We loved our stay. The only suggestion I have is you should consider getting a new mattress in the master bedroom. It was too soft and a bit lopsided. My neck suffered quite a bit. Everything else was quite wonderful.

Wonderful Week on Burntside

We were very happy with our week-long stay at the Somero cabin on Burntside. The cabin was very clean upon arrival and check in was easy. The location is great, the town of Ely is only a short drive away, and its spot on the lake is very peaceful. The small beach and zero-entry water access is great for kids, and the private dock is a bonus. To note, the area around the dock is very shallow and larger boats may have a harder time docking. The grill is also great for outdoor cooking. The inside of the cabin was very nice and comfortable with plenty of space and items needed to prepare food and hang out. We had a great week and would definitely recommend a stay at this clean and peaceful cabin!

Extremely Peaceful and Rewarding Family Trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay: the photos of the property and “cabin” do not do it justice! It sits on a quiet, peaceful part of the lake. Deer walked across the beach in the morning, ospreys glided over the water, and loons called as the sun set. The beach was sandy and shallow, and the water was the ideal temperature for swimming. The canoe and kayak lent themselves to many adventures. Our hosts were exceptionally responsive and patient with our questions, which was greatly appreciated!

The lake setting is wonderful. The kitchen is a bit dated and could use some updating. The biggest issue was the interior still had air fresheners in it when we arrived and towels and bedding had been washed with fragrance fabric softeners. So, my wife could not sleep in the bed due to reacting to the smells. She is very sensitive to artificial fragrances.

Quiet Time Up North

We only spent 2 nights up north but this provided a fantastic getaway for me and the kids. The property was right on the lake and I was able to take the younger ones out on the lake in the conoe. The older ones, we rented paddle boards from an Ely Outfitter and they enjoyed taking them out on the lake. Well worth the money if you have teens as the lake location is ideal - not too much boat traffic.
