Wonderful Home
This home is perfect for its variety of space - indoor/outdoor/3-seasons room - and is adorned with some really neat art pieces with what I’m guessing is a German/Dutch (?) background. The kitchen is generously stocked. Bedrooms are fine. Lots of linens available. We enjoyed riding the trails in the area and hope we can stay here again! Corrections to the listing…no barbecue grill available. Patio chairs are in bad shape. Two have their seats ripped out. There is one bathtub/shower. There is NOT a hot tub or spa tub.

Nice home for a reasonable price
We stayed for the month of August & were given a discounted price for the long-term rental, less expensive than a comparable rental in nearby Ely. The home is quite spacious, including a finished basement, with the exception of a very small bathroom on the main floor. There are essentially three living areas in the home: main floor, basement and sun porch--all with an abundance of comfortable furniture. The kitchen is well-supplied, but not much space leftover for our own groceries. There is a nice, large sauna in the basement, adjacent to laundry facilities. However there is no hot tub/spa as advertised, which was a bit disappointing.

Nice
Hpuse was very nice with updated appliances and furniture. Only downfalls were that we found a dirty washcloth hanging in bathroom and we didn't receive communication on door code prior to arrival and had to call manager.

Close to trails and a few jock drive to Ely
We needed a quick getaway and this seemed close to trails and perfect. We got in on a Thursday and left Sunday morning. The house was set in a nice quiet neighborhood and people waved and were kind. On Friday, we rode 148 miles of trails and capped off the night with dinner and a sauna. Thanks for a nice place to stay.

Roaming the Iron Range
Perfect for a home base for seeing the sights on the Iron Range and BWCA. We felt so comfortable lounging in the living room and the back 4-season porch after touring the surrounding towns from Ely to Eveleth to Hibbing and Chisholm and more. Three bedrooms and two baths along with fully stocked kitchen made our stay just like home.

Great location for ATV riding. Not the cabin like country location but in the small town neighborhood. Despite that the trails were accessed without trailering them. Very clean, sauna was a nice plus!

Amazing stay
Honestly the pictures do not do the place justice.The 4 of us were in the area for some fishing, so the location is ideal. The house was immaculately clean and inviting. It was furnished with everything we could ask for and then some. I cannot recommend this place enough!!

The home was more beautiful and comfortable than we had hoped.
This was our first experience renting a vacation home and this home was just amazing! We were so happy with our choice. The home was more beautiful and comfortable than we had hoped. I took my father and son fishing on Birch Lake. The house was exceptionally clean and extremely comfortable!!! The kitchen was amazing and we enjoyed relaxing on the outdoor deck looking at the evening skies. We would stay here again!"

Lovely Home made us feel Welcome in Babbitt
We came up for a week to tend to some business with our land in Ely that we purchase last year. I have been coming up to the Ely area since 1996, and this is the first time we stayed in Babbitt. What a lovely little town! Quiet and peaceful. This home was so awesome! Nearly everything we needed and there is Zups and Dollar General in town for things you may need. Plenty of room for us to spread out and get cozy. We cooked a good number of our meals here, even made some homemade Pierogi, using the kitchen aid mixer to make the dough quick and easy. Beds are so comfy! And I love the floors throughout! Even tried the Sauna and it was nice for relaxing. We got to see the Northern Lights for our first time, looking right out the front window. So amazing! Would definitely recommend this place to others!
