There is very spotty wifi but we were not there to be on electronics. The Pontoon Boat was very nice and we enjoyed our time out on the small lake.

Guest Reviews:

- "We had a wonderful time - swimming, taking daily saunas, playing games, making art, reading, relaxing and having fun together. Best dock for running and jumping into the lake. Grandkids (ages 7,4) enjoyed the freedom of running around outside by themselves, finding frogs and bugs, etc. Absolutely beautiful setting. Owner is very kind and helpful" - "This was our second year here. such a beautiful spot, and private, even though it is a fairly busy shoreline. Enough room around it to feel it is not your typical cabin rental - you can't see another cabin or person from your perch in the house. It's rustic and minimal and that's just the way we like it. The sauna was a big draw for us since it was on the chillier side this year. The dock is perfect, you can cannonball right off of it into the clean waters of Burntside. Cabin was tidy, linens nice, and it had everything we needed to cook. We will be back, this is a gem."

Private Island with a hand scribbed log cabin on beautiful Burntside Lake
Cabin
Burntside Lake, Minnesota, USA

Stay on your own 2 1/4 acre private island on beautiful Burntside Lake near Ely, Minnesota. One of the country's most beautiful lakes, studded with approx. 125 islands and ringed with coves and bays. Water sports paradise: swimming, snorkeling, canoeing, boating and fishing. A deep water lake of over 7000 acres. Fishing centers around Walleye, Northern Pike, Smallmouth Bass & Lake trout. Lake Trout & Walleye have been stocked by the DNR for decades and there is a healthy population of each.

The cabin is hand scribed logs from the Isabella area and constructed in 1984. (the outhouse is also constructed of hand scribed logs). The main level has one bedroom, kitchen, dining area, 'bathroom' consisting of a small vanity and shower, and the main living area with a wood burning stove. The area above the living area is open to the vaulted ceiling. The loft is open to the living area and has a double and single bed.

The island was 'spared' from logging in the early 1900's due to size, therefore we have first growth red pines. BEAUTIFUL!

Watch & listen to loons and ducks swim by. View sunrises and sunsets from one of the three decks. If you're lucky, you can view Aurora Boreallis from the dock.

We have an outdoor firepit for campfires or cookouts.

Bring your own boat and motor or contact us for options.

Guest Reviews:

- "Quaint 2 bedroom, freshly renovated. Amazing location in quiet protected bay. Nice beach area, where I kept my 18’ fishing boat. Loved the loons singing out front, and taking a dip in the clear water by the dock! Location right off blacktop, with plenty of parking! Not far to go exploring in town, where we biked the trails. Great Hosts! Would definitely go back!" - "Sweet cottage on the lake; all the comforts of home. 😊" - "What an amazing experience at this wonderful cabin!! If you're looking for that quinessential lake experience, this is your place! It was the perfect combination of a great location, cozy, clean cabin with modern amenities and the neat bonus of a sauna and kayaks. The host was wonderful and accommodating.

Guest Reviews:

- "Lake and area are beautiful. Cabin was clean and had great view. Host was helpful, responsive, and friendly." - "A very nice cabin right on the shore of Moose Lake, just yards from the entry into the BWCAW. The cabin and dock were exactly as shown in the pictures. We missed the notice that no bath or kitchen linens were provided, but Willy graciously provided us with an ample supply of loaner linens. There was a mouse in the cabin (not uncommon for seasonal residences in the north woods). We didn't contact the hosts, because we had two cats with and didn't want any poison put out, so the cats had a great time chasing their 'playmate' -we're sure it's the best vacation they've ever had. We would be very happy to stay here again."

We were never afraid or uncomfortable being there alone. The mosquitoes were out in full force which hindered our outdoor time but we were warned ahead of time about the "State Bird". Overall, a very nice experience!"

-our satellite internet is, roughly, 120 down and 40 up wifi and 280/210 with an ethernet cord (cord provided).
-you have your own dock. It can be accessed through the yard and across the road and down the stairs (see photos) Dock comes out the first weekend in October.
-Outdoor firepit (provide your own firewood)
-Cedar sauna (Electric, not wood)
-charcoal grill
-We are a dog friendly home. So feel free to bring any dog that is potty trained and well behaved. We have a couch cover, but feel free to bring your own as well.

KITCHEN
The kitchen is large and open to the living room and dining room (the living room on this level is also what we call "the sun room". Its all windows looking out on to the lake).
We have a gas top stove, oven (with convection), full size fridge and a dishwasher. The ice maker on the fridge is not keeping up these days, so I use ice trays instead. The water dispenser is not hooked up.
We will have items such as dish soap, dishwasher detergent, olive oil, sugar, spices, salt and pepper grinders, condiments, whole bean coffee & grinder. If you find it in the fridge or cupboards, go a head and use it. Most of the pantry items you will need are there already.
We have well water, but provide a Brita filtered water dispenser.

LIVING ROOM - on the main level we have what we call, "the sitting room". The lower level is where we have a large smart TV with a firestick. No cable channels. Many board and card games & LOTS of DVD's are also available.

3 BEDROOMS - There are no bedrooms on main floor, there are two upstairs (plus a bonus room with 2 twin beds and a desk, there is no dormer, so be careful you don't hit your head!) with king size beds. The 3rd bedroom (king bed) is in the lower level walk out next to the "tv room".

BATHROOMS - There is a half bathroom on main floor and full bath on second floor. A half bath is in the lower level, along with the other shower in the house (its in the sauna).

In the winter, we store a small car in the garage. But there is still plenty of room for an SUV.

Our lake shore is wooded & rocky and across the road. There are several steps down to the dock where you can access the lake (see photos). Dock comes out the first weekend in October.

Because we are IN THE WOODS, there may be spiders, ants, etc in the porch. We do have a pest control company that sprays and we set traps and generally do our best to keep out what we want out!

Guest access
You can access anything in the house, we just ask that you not try to access the cabins by the lake.

Other things to note
We are dog friendly.

The Atomic Lodge - Luxury Mid-Century Sanctuary
House

The Atomic Lodge is nestled atop a hill, surrounded by towering pines and boulder walls. This stunning mid century marvel was built in 1960 and has been meticulously renovated to its former glory and beyond. This home boasts flawless landscaping from a spacious front deck and a backyard patio, to a fire pit and a sauna - this place has it all. Sleeping up to 12 guests, the inside has a luxury modern kitchen, a wood burning fireplace, formal dining, movie and game rooms, finished beautifully.

The space
This booking is for the entire atomic lodge. The home comprises three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a bunk room, plus many common areas.

As you climb the concrete stairs , passing imposing boulder walls on all sides, you are confronted by a beautiful home that is quintessentially mid-century modern. With straight clean lines and a sea of windows, the atomic lodge welcomes guests to walk into the past to explore a home that would have been the delight of Frank Lloyd Wright.

Once inside guests will notice a clear connection between the inside and outside worlds. The countless windows allow in an abundance of natural light, beautifully highlighting all areas of this thoughtfully curated home.

The vaulted ceilings are clad in pine shiplap, creating a tall and luxurious feel while maintaining a cozy, homey atmosphere. All sections of the upstairs flow together seamlessly, allowing for an interplay between the formal dining room, kitchen, and the great room.

As is typical of mid century homes, our property is designed with an emphasis on lifestyle, family time, and an appreciation of nature. Visible out all the windows are a plentitude of pines, spruce, and sugar maple trees, standing as sentinels with orders to ensure your peace and privacy.

Our modern kitchen adjoins the great room in impressive fashion. This open floor plan makes meal prep enjoyable for the whole family or group. As someone plays their favorite record and another stokes the fire, the rest of your group can be collectively prepping for a feast with effortless interaction.

The kitchen is stocked with all you'll need for a complete cooking and baking experience. Our cookware and bakeware sets are from Caraway, a company that emphasizes both high-design and non-toxic construction. Made with ceramic coated aluminum, these pots and pans make for easy cooking and cleanup.

Our coffee bar is fully stocked with fresh, whole bean coffee, tastefully brewed using our Bonavita coffee maker. And for those wanting single cup and espresso options, we have a Nespresso machine with a wide selection of flavored pods. Last but not least, for the traditionalists out there, we also offer a French press. Pour yourself a cup and enjoy it from our breakfast bar or by the fireside.

Keep your eyes peeled while enjoying these spaces, as just outside the windows, a variety of wildlife can be seen. From a wide array of birds such as Ravens and Bald Eagles, to White Tail Deer, Fox, Rabbits, Red Squirrels, Flying Squirrels, and Mink.

The two upstairs bathrooms are fully updated and feature custom tile work, high-end finishes, and in-floor heat. There is nothing quite like a warm tile floor in the dead of winter to keep you cozy. Supplied by a tankless hot water heater, you and your group never have to worry about running out of hot water.

The two back bedrooms in the upstairs of the lodge consist of extremely comfortable queen mattresses, built-in closets and nightstands, as well as a spacious desk that is perfect for digital nomads to work remotely.

Our master bedroom features a floating bed frame topped with a comfortable king size mattress, a custom made headboard and nightstand combo, and a built-in closet. In addition there is a large recessed reading nook full of pillows, perfect for a book break or an afternoon nap. Climbing the Cotterman rolling library ladder will allow access to two upper nooks that await your exploration!

Our great room is the highlight of the home. The towering brick fireplace and marble hearth make for a grand setting for your fireside chats. Stocked with logs and kindling, you'll have everything you need to enjoy this space is style and comfort. Select a record to play on the turntable, or pick up the house guitar mounted on the wall and fill the space with the music of your choice. The bookcases are filled with National Geographic magazines from the 1950's & 60's, a wide selection of books of all genres, alongside puzzles and boardgames for late nights and rainy days.

DOWNSTAIRS

The lower level of the Atomic lodge features a 6 person bunk room with the most comfortable couch you've ever sat on (LoveSac Sactional), along with a smart TV with all the streaming apps you could want, topped off with cinema quality surround sound!

Each bunk features a memory foam, Twin XL mattress that is sure to impress. You'll also find your own outlet for charging, and a storage cubby for all your personal belongings to be kept at arms length.

There is a dedicated workspace, ready for computer or writing use that accommodates four people. Perfect for remote work or just surfing the web on our fiber optic WiFi.

A beautifully crafted mudroom at the entrance is perfect for storing all your gear and supplies. Think Swiss Chalet vibes.

The basement bathroom features all custom tile work, high-end finishes and a modern bathtub/shower combo.

Last but not least, we have a game room that has a poker table and a dart board for your use. We also have a massive wall sized map of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness hanging on the wall for all your trip planning needs. You'll also find additional boardgames and card games for your enjoyment!

OUTSIDE

You and your group will also have access to the front deck with outdoor furniture. This space is perfect for morning coffee or your morning meditation or yoga practice. It is an enormous deck that is both spacious and private. An amazing place to sit and listen to the wide variety of birds that live in the woods surrounding our property!

In the back yard you will have access to another outdoor patio area consisting of a poured concrete picnic table, as well as an outdoor kitchen and BBQ area. We will have a propane grill available for you to use as well as outdoor plates and silverware. This entire area is canopied in the summer by two mighty maple trees, providing beautifully filtered sunlight and a refuge from the heat.

You will also have access to the outdoor fire pit and all the firewood you could want, at no cost. The backyard is surrounded by towering pine trees and massive maples, offering a secluded escape that will enrapture you. Check the woodshed for roasting sticks, and grab the supplies from the kitchen pantry for roasting Smores!

And last, but certainly not least...Ely is famous for it's incredible viewing opportunities to see The Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis). On nights when conditions are right, they are VERY CLEARLY VISIBLE from our front deck, and our backyard while standing around the fire. Check out the images in the photo gallery!
