The property is new, well equipped and setup nicely to handle large groups (we were 8 adults and one infant). Marcus and Abby were very accessible and addressed the few minor requests we had proactively (with follow up to make sure we were happy with the results). If we can get the crew together again next year - we will definitely come back to the Ely Cabin. ##### dale w. Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexandra C.

The cabin is very “open,” spacious and beautiful and the views from the bedrooms on the first floor are very nice. The kayaks and canoe are an excellent addition, they were much used by my family and I. Didn’t try the sauna but would love to come back and do so in the wintertime. ##### Alexandra C.

We loved everything about it - the spacious living room, sauna, and game room! We especially loved playing game after game of Pac-Man and utilizing the upstairs large table to work on a Christmas puzzle. We enjoyed the sunset views over the water while we sat around the bonfire. The location was great for us. We enjoyed being close to town to grab coffee in the morning and to check out the shops. We experienced some trouble with the oven the night before Thanksgiving, but Marcus was quick to respond and sent a maintenance guy over right away to help. He checked in and made sure our stay was going well. We really appreciated their care and communication. We hope to come back to enjoy all of the wonderful amenities again. I will be recommending this place to all my friends who plan to visit the area. ##### Alyssa H. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ken K. Feb 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Idyllic Retreat Marcus and Abby Andrusko's "Northern Exposure Cabin" provided the ideal destination for our reunion of longtime friends. There were so many things about the experience that stood out to my friends and me. For starters, Marcus and Abby's attention to detail is impeccable. From the airy, yet cozy, design of the cabin to the the incredibly tasteful decor, the home was fit for a magazine. While our group prepared most of our meals in advance, we were taken by Northern Exposure's kitchen offerings. The cabin had just about anything one could want to prepare any meal. What's more, the knives were numerous AND sharp! The abundance of high-quality flatware, glassware, plates and bowls are ideal for a large group. From the foosball table to the Pac-Man, from the broad movie offerings to the many puzzles and from the loft's gaming table to the inviting sauna, if bad weather finds you stuck inside for a spell, there is no shortage of fun things to keep one busy. While most of our group has spent a lot of time in Ely, Marcus and Abby's Ely information booklet was remarkably thorough and exhaustive. Book the place, and you'll see - the hosts are ALL about the details! The cabin is within walking distance to Ely, yet distant enough to make one feel like they are far removed from the cares of the world. There were a few occasions on which I needed to communicate with the hosts. I am very grateful for the swift and thoughtful responses I received. I would highly recommend Northern Exposure! ##### Ken K. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard s.

Everyone had a quiet bedroom to retreat to each night, and the common areas were large and accommodating.I saw more deer from the house than I saw the last three years combined sitting in the woods, and I’m a pretty serious hunter. It’s really cool to wake up, be drinking coffee, and watch multiple deer walk right outside the window.Lake access was a breeze, and wile fishing wasn’t amazing, fish were still caught, including a 15lb pike. Marcus was very responsive, and very friendly. I highly recommend this property for your next up north adventure. ##### Tim H. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon M.

We rented this home for our daughter’s wedding weekend in Ely. We have a tiny cabin and in the area and needed a larger place to accommodate our large family and this house was perfect! We had 12 people total and were a central gathering place for many out of town and local family and friends. The house was immaculate- seriously the cleanest house any of us have rented. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable and bedrooms were out of the way and private. There were plenty of spaces for people to get away from the group and plenty of space for us to gather with everyone. The screen porch was perfect for morning coffee. No mosquitos because of our late September stay! We enjoyed the Sauna AND our swims afterwards. Location is great and close to town; if you want to walk to breakfast the Grand Ely Lodge is 1/4 mile away on the bike trail. Ely is a second home for us but if you are new to the area the owners have a well written book with local hot spots and trails listed, plus everything you need to know about the property. The only downfall- which isn’t even an issue- is that the neighbors seem to be intolerant of noise- our grandchildren are 3-5 and their outside noisy play elicited a noise complaint from the neighbors, nevertheless the owners contacted us and were understanding- they just asked us to try to turn it down a notch, which we did. ##### Mary D.

We rented the cabin to celebrate my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. During our childhood my parents took us on canoe trips into the boundary waters. These hardcore trips are core memories for us. Therefore, to celebrate 50 years we wanted to recreate the memories without all of the hardship. Staying at this beautiful cabin was perfection. We got the smells, sights and feels of the boundary waters but with luxury instead of misery. It makes me wonder why my parents ever did it any other way...oh wait, I know, it built character. Thanks Ma & Pa we love you. We also love the cabin and hope to get rent it out again! ##### Sara C. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jay E. Sep 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful home with plenty of space, inside and out! Our extended family of 16 (ages 66-1 year) just returned from a stay at this beautiful property. We had a wonderful time! Home: the home is spacious and we never felt crowded. It was equipped with everything we needed to cook all of our meals. The pack n play and high chair were a bonus! Plenty of towels, which is always nice. We spent most of our nights in the screened in porch (darn fire ban and heat), but it was perfect. The decor in the house was so much fun, even our kids commented on it. Very well done. There is no AC, but even on the 91 degree day, the house stayed cool. It’s very shade and has a wonderful breeze off of the lake. Outdoors: beautiful, spacious lot. Our kids spent nearly all day on the beach. The house was stocked with many outdoor toys; we especially loved the kayaks, SUP, and bags. A bonus was the many life jackets provided! We enjoyed boating on the lake and even went to nearby Burntside lake, which was beautiful as well. Location: You can’t beat this location in the Ey area. The house is a short car ride to town or even a short 8-10 min bike ride to town. We loved having the bike trail right across the street. Host: Marcus was more than accommodating and could not have been a better host. He responded to all inquiries in a timely manner and provided detailed information on the house that we appreciated! Check in check out was some of the easiest we’ve dealt with. ##### Jay E.
