About this cabin rental
Shorewood Cabin at Vosburgh’s Custom Cabin Rentals is spacious, scenic, and designed with group getaways in mind. Perched just above the main landing on Moose Lake, this timber-style cabin offers direct lake access, unforgettable sunset views, and a peaceful setting ideal for family retreats, fishing trips, or multi-group adventures. With its large footprint and open layout, Shorewood is built for gathering—whether that’s around a meal, a fire, or the screened porch looking out over the water.
For over 50 years, Vosburgh’s Custom Cabin Rentals has been family-owned and operated, serving generations of paddlers, anglers, and Northwoods explorers. As one of the last remaining cabin resorts with direct access to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW), we take pride in offering guests the perfect blend of remote wilderness access and resort-style support. From outfitting advice to boat rentals, we’re here to make your time in Ely unforgettable.
Shorewood is a wonderful option for families looking to share the magic of the Boundary Waters with their children—while still enjoying the comfort and ease of cabin life. With many nearby day trip paddle routes, including the popular Lake One loop, it's an ideal home base for introducing kids to canoe country. Moose Lake is excellent for fishing and swimming; children love jumping off our docks. While we don’t have a pool, the lake provides plenty of fun and refreshment. Our website offers additional nearby day trip paddle and hiking suggestions to help plan your adventure.
Shorewood features two private bedrooms on the main floor, each with a queen bed, and a large split loft upstairs with six twin beds—comfortably sleeping up to 10 guests. The cabin includes a full bathroom and a half bath, a well-stocked kitchen with open living and dining space, 20-foot vaulted ceilings for a lodge-like feel, and a free-standing fireplace for cozy evenings. The large screened-in porch provides panoramic lake views and a front-row seat to Moose Lake’s incredible sunsets.
As part of the resort, Shorewood guests enjoy full access to our docks, boat house, and fish cleaning facilities. Weekly rentals include a 16-foot Lund fishing boat with swivel seats. Optional rentals include 25 hp electric start/trim motors ($375/week or $75/day), depth finders, trolling motors, canoes, and live bait. Guests are also welcome to bring their own 25 hp motor or smaller.
Additional amenities include free parking for multiple vehicles and boat trailers, provided firewood for the fireplace, and all linens and blankets (please bring your own towels). Starlink WiFi is available in the boat house. The cabin has intermittent WiFi, making it an excellent spot to unplug. Pets are welcome but must be supervised and not left alone in the cabin. Smoking is not permitted indoors.
Shorewood is available May through October. Additional state and local lodging taxes not collected by VRBO may be due at check-in. Minimum stay requirements may apply during peak seasons. For larger groups, an adjacent cabin, Tanglewood (sleeps 6), is also available to rent.
Inquire directly about the procurement and availability of BWCA permits.
Whether you’re launching a canoe into the BWCA, casting a line at dawn, or winding down under the stars, Shorewood offers the space, setting, and history to make your Northwoods getaway truly memorable. Book your stay today and experience why families have returned to Vosburgh’s for generations.

Great space, location and all the basic amenities. The kids in particular loved the dock area for swimming and said it was the best place we stayed all vacation. Will definitely be back!

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2020
We had a great time at Custom Cabin rentals. The shorewood cabin easily fit 6 adults and 2 kids. The lake was a short walk away with great swimming and wonderful docks. The kitchen was well stocked, screen porch was nice in the evenings when the bugs came out. The hosts were very helpful and responsive, very safe Covid practices as well which was greatly appreciated. Only compliant was the lack of catching fish, but that's why it's called fishing! Can't wait to go back someday.
