Snowmobiling Trip

Rode snowmobiles from the home in Babbitt to Ely, Tower and Isabella. Only enough parking for one vehicle plus a trailer, which worked out fine for us. Nice comfortable beds, and good television choices.

Quiet and peaceful!

Well our stay was only two nights, The property was clean and convenient for our family of 5. It was an easy check in and check out process. So much more convenient than staying at a hotel/motel in the area. I would definitely stay again if we are back in the area!

Fishing Trip

The house was located close to numerous awesome fishing lakes. It was cozy, had clean sheets and plenty of towels. The kitchen was stocked very well with all the cookware you would need to make some great meals. The fire pit and the grill outback were very nice too. I plan on staying here again next year and would highly recommend that you should too.

Would definitely stay again

What a great house AND YARD! With permission and fantastic weather we had a short term gathering in the back yard as part of our 50th class reunion. The back yard was perfect for this and everyone who attended made comment of the NICE PLACE. We had a few questions which were sent to the home owner who responded immediately . Thank youfor allowing our gathering.

Sisters vaca

We are 3 sisters 70+ ages who just wanted to spend some time together up north. The house was very comfortable with 4 bedrooms (one bedroom had a spring mattress that we couldn't use) but the bedroom in the basement was ok. It was clean and we had a very nice time.

perfect for family

We found it just as shown in pictures, very comfortable, and family friendly. The owner was very helpful and very hospitable. Babbit is a small village with friendly neighbors. Zups market was our favorite stop for relaxed dinner at the house. (porchetta and stuffed chicken- stick it in the oven, ready, and so delicious!) Ely was our best choice for shopping, with plenty to explore. We used Piragis for our outfitter, as our destination was the BWCA.

Family sized house

Beautiful inside decor. Beds were extremely comfortable. With 4 bedrooms it was very roomy. The sauna was a great perk. Fenced backyard provided private space, but could use some clean up. Doors were locked when we arrived and we needed to wait until we could get in touch eith owner. Definitely get code ahead of time. Don't relie on her statement that doors would be unlocked. Would definately recommend this house, especially if you want a nice spacious home.

Beatty Family Reunion

Plenty of space and sleeping arrangements for a 13 year old, his dad and a senior citizen. Beats the heck out of a cramped hotel/ motel. Not sure why, but the kitchen sink and bathtub had no drain plugs. Spent most of our time in Cook and Ely. Be sure to bring your own coffee or Kerig cups if you're a coffee drinker, as well as cream & sweetener. Now I know where my maternal grandfather and his family settled when they came to the U.S.

A perfect getaway

We enjoyed our stay. Each of us had our own room (4 of us) We didn’t take advantage of the backyard much. There’s a cute gazebo (hadn’t been cleaned) but we sat outside each night on the patio benches, the weather was perfect! We used the kitchen to cook our meals, it’s well stocked with almost everything you need! The pans could use an update, but overall we appreciated not having to bring cookware. It was very clean, beds were comfortable (the sheets were excellent, so soft!) Check in was a breeze. We didn’t end up using the sauna, but it’s very nice! There’s tons of space for everyone to spread out. We explored the state parks nearby, many of the lakes, birch lake swimming beach, Ely (bear center and wolf center) and it was nice to come “home” to a quiet place to relax. I highly recommend staying here if you’re in the area!
