CB02If you want the authentic Northwoods feel without sacrificing modern comfort, this is your spot.
Here is why this cabin is a total winner:
The Best of Both Worlds: This cabin is newly remodeled, so everything feels fresh and clean, but it hasn't lost that rustic soul. You walk in and see that beautiful knotty pine everywhere, but then you look at the kitchen and see shiny stainless steel appliances. It’s the perfect balance.
Cozy Yet polished: The centerpiece of the living area is a beautiful rock fireplace. I can already picture you there: evening chill in the air, fire crackling, and a glass of wine in hand. It’s exactly the vibe you travel north to find.
Perfect for Couples: The layout here is spot-on for a double-date trip or a small family. You have two bedrooms, and each one hosts a double bed. It is specifically touted as being perfect for two couples, giving you enough privacy while keeping the group together.
Nature at Your Doorstep: Step out onto the deck, and you are immediately surrounded by towering red and white pine trees. It’s secluded, peaceful, and smells exactly like a vacation should.
This is a fantastic, updated option that captures the beauty of Northern Minnesota perfectly.
Common Questions
Rooted in the perfect spot since 1951.
Some things you just get right on the first try. Built in 1951, Cabin 2 has stood its ground in its original location for over seven decades. Why? Because when you find a view this good and a breeze this sweet, you don’t move an inch.
While its footprint is historic, its soul has evolved to master the art of relaxation. For the first few decades, it was a simple Northwoods outpost. But as the definition of "vacation" shifted from survival to revival, so did Cabin 2.
In the 80s, we started blurring the walls, adding the first iteration of the deck to bring the forest closer. But the real magic happened in the 90s and beyond, when we decided to let the light in. We installed a skylight—a rarity in traditional cabins—turning the living space into a sun-drenched haven by day and a private observatory by night.
We expanded the deck again (because you can never have too much space for morning coffee), stripped the exterior back to reveal the warm, honey-hued original wood, and installed a corner fireplace. Now, even on a rainy day, you can watch the storm roll in through the glass while the fire crackles in the corner.
It’s a cabin that respects its past but knows exactly what you need for your present: Light, warmth, and a view that hasn't changed since the Truman administration.
