Explore the outdoors with our seasonal amenities! Before using any watercraft, please note that a waiver must be signed. For summer fun, we offer Cornhole, Disc Golf, Croquet, Bocce Ball, a Pickleball net for driveway use, Ladder Toss, and Badminton. All these activities are subject to weather conditions and are designed to enhance your experience on the property.
Please note, due to our property's layout, carrying these items to the dock via the deck path may require 2-3 people due to their weight. After use, kindly return them to the garage for storage. Your safety and enjoyment are our top priorities, so please exercise caution and ensure proper handling of the watercraft at all times.

The Neighborhood:
The Retreats has everything for a memorable vacation in the North Woods. Only minutes from dining and shopping in downtown Ely. Hike to Kawishiwi Falls. One of the most unique beers in Ely is the Blueberry Blonde available at the Boathouse Brepub. Hands down the number one recommendation I received for Ely was a meal at Insula. The Chocolate Moose is a great breakfast stop with a nice outdoor patio space.
Getting Around:
Property is in private pristine Boundary Waters Forest with great views. The International Wolf Center in Ely is a great place to learn about the history of wolves and how they’ve continued to evolve as humans have coexisted in their living areas.
Other Things to Note:
The pool is only available typically from Mid June - Min September.
Use of the pool is weather permitting.
Always check with the host to see if the pool will be available during your stay.
We are dog friendly. We allow for 2 dogs per reservation. To ensure a pleasant stay for all our guests and maintain our property in excellent condition, we have a few guidelines for pet stays:
Pet Fee: $25 per night, per pet requested through booking platform after reservation is confirmed, will be an additional charge requested.
To ensure the safety of both our guests and the security of our residence, we have strategically positioned external surveillance cameras around the perimeter of our home.
