About this property
Family-friendly Cabin. Beautiful And Fun In All Seasons!
Enjoy the peace and tranquility of the Northwoods on this 5 acre property with all of the comforts and amenities of home. Elbow lake is a deep, hard sandy bottom lake with 13 to 16 ft of water clarity. The lake is nearly seven miles long and is connected by channel to Little Bemidji. The lake is actually the headwaters of the Ottertail River. If you had a mind to, you could kayak or canoe all the way to the Red River! Provided are 1 paddle board and several small kayaks for those adventuring spirits. If you prefer, sit on the large wrap-around deck, where not only can you take in the tranquil waters and stunning forests of Northern Minnesota, you have a clear view of the sandy beach and dock. You can relax while your kids play in the water. New this year is an 85 ft floating dock with a ladder on the end. Your kids will wear themselves ragged jumping off the end!
When lake freezes in winter, there is direct access to 500 miles of groomed trails for snowmobiling. Several popular 'watering holes' are just a short ride away. Jump on the lake and cross country ski for miles or take a short drive to groomed cross country ski trails at Rainbow Resort or Itasca State Park. Great fishing. After a long day on the trail, relax in the wood fired sauna.
You won't feel like your roughing it, as the cabin has been completely remodeled. Wrap around deck. Stainless steel appliances. Granite counter tops. Tiled bathrooms - shower in one bathroom, tub only in the other. Washer and dryer. Big screen TV, Cable, and high speed internet. One king BR, one twin xl over queen bunk BR, two twin xl over twin xl bunks in third BR.
Guest cabin and exclusive access to 120 lake shore acres available for additional fee. Check-in/out day is Friday. Check-in/out days OTHER than Friday's are subject to an additional $150 cleaning fee. If you have questions about this proper to a instant booking, please ask.

Why they chose this property
Jeremy and I grew up in Minnesota, but now live in North Dakota. When we began looking for a lake cabin, we knew we wanted that 'up north' feel. When we stumbled upon this diamond in the rough, we knew it was for us. We have been lovingly making it our own for the last several years.
