Located about 20 miles north of Ely, in the heart of the Superior National Forest, accessed by the Echo Trail. Kitchen and bathrooms are serviced by drilled well, compliant septic system and propane utilities. Cabin also has a large deck overlooking Big Lake for spectacular views.

Most of the lake’s shoreline and surrounding lands are federally owned.
