Authentic Log Cottage on Wolf Lake

Are you looking for a real “Up North” experience for your next vacation? If so, you’ll enjoy this rustic log cabin on Wolf Lake in Baldwin! Full of vintage charm, to make your stay one you’ll remember for years to come.
Snowmobile trails are a short distance away making it possible to ride from the cabin to the trail. You can launch your boat right from the property for a fun day in the sun.

The welcoming living room has a cobblestone fireplace with a wood stove insert and the room is open to the cozy kitchen and dining area. A modern propane gas stove, microwave and refrigerator give you the conveniences of home. Coffee and microwave popcorn is waiting for you. The kitchen is equipped with plates, cups, utensils, cookware and a number of small appliances(coffee maker, toaster, crock pot, toaster oven, electric griddle, electric fry pan)

The master bedroom has a queen bed and it’s own bathroom with a shower. A small table and two chairs in this room make a nice spot to enjoy your morning coffee.

The second bedroom has 2 bunk beds. The bottom beds each sleep 2 people on full size mattresses and both have a twin size top bunk. (This room can sleep 6). A small table and chairs are also in this bedroom—anyone for a game of checkers?

Sheets, pillows, blankets, towels provided.

A second bathroom has a tub/shower.

There is a long enclosed porch which is ideal for relaxing, giving you a place to chill out when you’ve had too much sun or want to listen to the breezes on a rainy day.

The wooded lot has a great fire pit and chairs to make every night cozy. Use the gas grill to make burgers the whole family will enjoy as they share a meal around the party size wooden picnic table.

There is room to park your boat or snowmobile trailer as well as your car or truck.

Private access to gorgeous 400 acre all sports Wolf Lake is right across the street. You can sit at the kitchen table and view the lake. This lake is shallow for a distance, making it ideal for supervised play for your younger children. The public boat launching area is directly adjacent to the property’s lake access. A second fire pit is also on this access area.

Due to the rustic nature of this cabin, we would advise packing slippers and warm cozy pajamas , as it will feel very cold if you are not prepared for it during the winter months.

Come be our guests!

Perfect for our winter weekend getaway. The description was accurate and the cabin is super cute. It is nicely supplied with kitchen supplies, towels and paper products. It was a bit chilly just as the description said but we were prepared with slippers and warm clothes and they supplied plenty of blankets. It was a great stay.

This charming lakeside community features stunning scenery and a one-of-a-kind, comfortable cabin. While it doesn’t have air conditioning or Wi-Fi, the focus is on enjoying the great outdoors with family. I would happily stay here again.
