About this home
Public Remarks: Get away from it all and enjoy the Northwoods! Affordable, charming, authentic Finnish log cabin with five acres. It has a large living room, kitchen combo with dining room, and a back door mudroom entry. The upper level has the main bedroom, and a bonus room at the top of the steps serves as additional sleeping space but could be an indoor bathroom and closet. Nine apple trees and large willow trees border the spacious yard that provides summer shade with a fire pit and a picnic table. There are two 10X9 sheds with power & lights and a very nice 10X8 outhouse with a shower area with power & lights. Fujitsu Mini Split for heat and air, 100-amp service, and Norvado for high-speed fiber internet. Low utilities: the average electric bill is $50 a month. The cabin has an artesian pit well, and a 2000-gallon holding tank was installed in 2007. If you want to do a little fishing, the Muskeg Creek is only steps away and runs year-round. Only a few minutes to the Brule River for fishing Brook & Brown trout, canoeing, and kayaking. Thousands of acres of public land, Chequamegon National Forest & and easy access to the Tri-County Corridor (68 miles) for snowmobiling/ATV trails from your driveway. Nearby winter fun cross-country skiing, hiking trails, Lake Superior beaches for swimming, canoeing, and kayaking summer fun. It is only 25 minutes to Ashland and 45 minutes to Superior/Duluth for shopping malls, restaurants, and the airport.

This authentic Finnish log cabin is a little piece of local history in a small Finnish community. The interior logs are believed to be cedar and have been beautifully finished. The room at the top of the steps serves as additional sleeping space but could maybe be an indoor bathroom and closet. The cabin is served by an artesian well and one of the three storage sheds serves as an outhouse with a bio-toilet & shower. A 2000 gallon holding tank was installed in 2007. The spacious yard is bordered by large willow trees and tall lombardy poplar offering wonderful summer shade. If you like to do a little fishing the Muskeg Creek is only steps away and runs year around. The only thing missing is an outdoor sauna. This setting is just charming.
