About this House

Your dream property is here! This 2009 cabin is on an island on Boulder Lake, just 30 minutes north of Duluth. Boulder Lake is over 3200 acres and features unique privacy, quiet and peaceful serenity, great fishing, skiing, and snowmobiling, and nature at its finest. The BWCA feel is evident when you're on Big Island, where the cabin is located just a short boat ride away from the private launch. The lot is heavily wooded and features beautiful shoreline, a dock, and a lagoon for additional boat access. The cabin is powered by solar and features an energy efficient fridge, a propane cooking stove, a beautiful wood stove for heat, Crestline windows, excellent insulation, an open layout, a loft bedroom, a hide-away bed on the main level, views of the lake, a vaulted ceiling, and gorgeous woodwork. Outside, you'll find a tiki bar, a storage shed, lots of room for tents and hammocks, an outdoor shower with a propane-fueled hot water heater, and a perfect yard for playing. This getaway is so convenient yet so serene and surrounded by the best of Northern Minnesota's great outdoors. It's equally as fun in the winter because it’s situated in skiing, ice fishing, and snowmobiling heaven. This may just be the one you were waiting for. Virtual tour: https://youtu.be/M7PfuY0hIjQ
