Located 30 miles SE of Ely in the heart of the Superior National Forest is this remote cabin on 33 acres, with 615 feet of wilderness shoreline on Shallow Lake. Shallow connects to Deep lake and the 2 lakes offer great wilderness solitude and great fishing for walleye, northern pike, perch, and largemouth bass! Cabin is off the grid, and is 4.5 miles in off Highway 1 on gravel roads. If you are looking for peace and quiet, you just found it! Cabin is 24'x20' with a12'x12' loft. Attractive cabin is half log sided and the interior is tongue and groove pine. Some interior finishing is needed, but cabin has been used for a number of years and is very comfortable as is. Nice kitchen with propane refrigerator, large living room and dining area facing the lake, and a bathroom with composting toilet are all on the main floor. Radiant wood stove for heat. Owner uses a small generator for lights, etc. Call for all the details.
As the MLS and public records start to fill up, we'll list the details here.
