Vacation rentals with a firepit in Lake Vermilion

Robert and DeCole were responsive and accommodating. Their house was perfect for our group. Plenty of places to sleep and plenty of amenities for everyone (towels, soaps, kitchen utensils, etc)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful Stay at The Birch House! We had another fantastic stay at The Birch House by Nichole & Steffan! This place is everything you could want in an Airbnb—clean, cozy, and perfect for relaxing between adventures. The neighborhood is peaceful, making it easy to unwind after a day of exploring. The home is well-stocked with everything needed to cook a couple of meals, and the master bath shower is amazing—a perfect way to refresh after a long day. It's also a short drive to Ely, which made it super convenient since most of our trip was planned around that area. We've stayed here a few times now, and the hosts are always incredibly organized and thoughtful. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-maintained, and welcoming home base. We’ll definitely be back! — Childers Family

My family and I had such an incredible stay at Jennifer’s lake house. It was the perfect combination of spacious, cozy, and private for us to spend our Christmas week there. The location and wintry weather had us feeling like we were in a snow globe. The house was even decorated for the season, and had more than enough room for the group we had. Makes me excited for the summer months, as I would absolutely book here again!

We stayed at this property to ride the ATV trail system. You could not ask for a better location to the system. Easy to get to the trails, and access to two great loops to ride.

Beautiful home with a beautiful view. We had a great time fishing, eating at various places and traveling the North Shore.

We loved our stay at Jake and Annie's place. It was the perfect place to share with 3 families. We had a great long weekend skiing and snowboarding at Giants Ridge. Our kids want us to make it a yearly tradition and stay at this house each year. Highly recommend!

We loved the home that Tom so graciously shares with Air BNB. The stocked kitchen was above our expectations. Our group goes yearly to up-north places but finding somewhere that houses 10 is getting to be a rare find, we hit the jackpot with Tom’s home. Lots to do within the home that is extremely comfortable and spacious. Lots to do in the surrounding cities from tours to drinks to eating out. We appreciate your responsiveness and kindness Tom and thank you for sharing your home with us!!!!!

Greg has a lovely lake home with ample amounts of space. it's well appointed, extremely clean with everything you need. it's a beautiful spot on a beautiful lake I was born and raised in the area and wanted a nice cabin on Vermilion to have a little family get together. we all had a nice time we even ice fished and caught a few nice walleyes. again great place, great location, great lake views and great peace and tranquility. we'll be back for future family endeavors for sure.

Great place. Very close to where I come to town to work. Has everything you’ll need. Nice and warm. Usually quiet but if the upstairs neighbors are movin around you’re definitely gonna hear them. Otherwise it’s perfect!

Perfect stay for our trip! The kids loved the hot tub. We knew the people in the other unit, so it was awesome! We had a great time!

Great place for me to stay while I was in the area for 2½ weeks. Quiet and convenient and great communication!

We are in awe of Debbie’s peaceful haven! It is beautifully artistic, very cozy, and in a great location. The beautiful coffee station was a treat. We found wonderful hiking trails close by and loved being able to walk downtown to shops and fun restaurants. We love Ely and would love to return to Debbie’s place in the future.

Donny was very accommodating from start to finish. Very responsive and answered any and all questions we had. The place was perfect, super clean and nice and warm! Would definitely stay again. Thanks so much!

Great place to stay, super nice owner and management, easy to communicate with. All our needs were covered during our stay. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you for the cozy stay. Was nice to be so close to the snowboarding hill.

How fun! This basement apartment was spacious with several sleeping quarters, full kitchen, and full bathroom. The beds were comfortable and the space gets very dark for good sleeping, and we enjoyed the common space living room/kitchen. The decor was really creative. It is a basement and we stayed on the 4th of July, so we did not experience the quiet hours, but the whole fun little town was alive and having fun that night, so no concerns. If quiet is a must, basement apartments are not the way to go and we know and are ok with that, but if you’re not, this is something to avoid. The kitchen is stocked, but only for a couple people, so bringing paper products is helpful. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

Highly recommend, very peaceful, clean, and fair priced. Beautiful view overlooking the lake. We will be back!!

We decided to try out Crane Lake for our yearly fishing trip; we had a blast!! Emily was a great host! Recommendations on where to get fishing boats from and was very fast to respond to any and all of our questions. The trip up to Kettle Falls was a lot of fun and just amazed how much water there is and how much there is to explore. We stayed for five days and didn’t even make a dent in exploding of all the water, and we were out for 8-10ish hours fishing every day! The house was great! So peaceful and relaxing to sit outside and watch all the bald eagles and other wildlife. The stars are amazing when you have a clear sky. Everyone is so friendly all around the lake. We will definitely make the long trip back up to explore more of the lake and get more fishing time in on the lakes!! Thanks for the opportunity to enjoy such a wonderful experience!! 😊😊

Great cabin on the lake. Perfect for us to have a few days away. Loved our stay!

Great cabin — comfortable, clean, quiet. Well-appointed kitchen. Nicely decorated interior. Spacious rec room with a very large screen TV. Easy access to boat dock. Mike, the owner, was staying in another cabin close by, he was extremely helpful and friendly. The cabin itself is in the community of Crane Lake, on the water. It sits in a row of similar cabins. A small store (fisherman-oriented) and couple of bar/restaurants are nearby, easily walkable. We used this as a base for day trips (hiking and canoeing) into Voyageurs NP and the Boundary Waters. You can also walk to and hike the Vermillion Gorge Trail from the cabin — recommended.

We stayed at John's place in the winter, and it exceeded our expectations. The place was clean and well-stocked. Running the log stove and sauna were a must, as they were the only way to stay warm. We saw a wolf and many other wildlife during our stay. Snowshoeing on the nearby lakes were a highlight. The trails marked by Dave were easy to follow, along with the maps they provided. If you are looking for a peaceful trip surrounded by nature, you found the right place! Thanks to John and Dave for being so helpful and responsive.

Hidden Minnesota gem. The place is even better than the photos. Serene, extremely tranquil. Beautiful lake and lots to do for kids and adults equally. Love coming back to this place.

We were very pleased with our stay. The cabin is adorable with plenty of space around it. After reading a few reviews about the train tracks being so close I was a little concerned about safety and noise. Once we arrived I noticed that safety was not an issue as a river (stream) is located between the property and the tracks. The train runs through frequently but it didn't have a negative impact on our stay and we live in the country with no trains. Randy was very pleasant to work with and I can't say enough good things about our stay. it was a perfect fit!

The perfect place for a snowmobile weekend with friends! Large, loop around driveway with plenty of large trailer parking. Close to gas station with grocery and the snowmobile trail with just a short drive down a quiet road. Cabin was so charming, super clean, great layout for a group of adults with plenty of space for all the snowmobile gear. They thought of everything with stocked kitchen equipment, linens and were super responsive to any messages. We had such a great experience and lots of trails to ride in the area- will definitely be back!
