About this cabin rental

In existence since 1935, Westhaven Lodge and its cabins have one of the premier locations on the south side of Big Bay of Lake Vermilion. Cabin 1 has its own small point with a fire pit, dock and boat lift, and it has a beach that it shares with the main lodge. It also has a sauna, a fish cleaning house, a canoe and two kayaks that are shared with the lodge.
Questions? Please contact Rodger.
The boat lift can accommodate a speed boat or fishing boat up to 3,000 pounds. The 650 square foot cabin has a bedroom with a queen bed and another bedroom with twin beds. It's finished with a vintage pine interior with an updated bathroom, and it also has a stone fireplace. Pets are allowed, and a large, private deck runs along the entire front (lakeside) of the cabin. Antenna TV available with Wi-Fi streaming capability. Because the sun rises and sets so far to the north in the summer, the point is ideal for watching both--just stay up late and get up early!

Was very impressed by the exceptional cleanliness of this property despite being a very old cabin. The charm and unique historical craftsmanship was not lost on us. It was a comfortable stay for 4 adults and an infant. The room with the queen bed was large enough to set-up a play pen. The property was peaceful. Although you are quite close to the “lodge” next door, so if there is a rowdy group it might put a damper on your stay. The group next to us was considerate and we had no complaints. The only thing that was a negative for us was no air conditioning. (Would love a small freestanding unit in the main part of the cabin)Although it was really only an issue the first night we were there. 90 degrees and no wind made for an exceptionally hot cabin. It took awhile for temps to drop. Box fans were provided thank goodness. Heat is for sure something we should have considered more traveling with a 7 month old and an 80 year old. Just something I’d like others to be aware of! Would stay again. 90s aren’t typical for an end of may stay!

Definitely enjoyed my early season stay and being able to use the fireplace. The property is very conveniently located to several attractions. Only recommendation I have to pass on to others is to burn wood towards the back of the fireplace because the smoke curls over the edge if it’s towards the front and you will need to open a window to air it out. Otherwise, perfect for the getaway we needed to relax!

I wish I would have known there was no air-conditioning. They had 2 box fans available. Word to the wise, the mayflies are in a great abundance in June and July. Was hard to be out in the yard or by the water without the nuisance of them. It had a boat lift available and a nice dock to sit on and fish from. The lake was a very nice clean lake. Mayflies are only in healthy clean water so it must be excellent water lol Be sure to bring a flashlight with you in case the power goes out. The power was out our first night from a storm, and there was no flashlight available. The caretaker brought one over after I asked about one. We wish there would have been a little more water pressure in the shower, didn’t feel like you could get very clean in the shower after being in the lake. Nice but very rustic and primitive.
