    What's special

    Modern tidy outhouseSpacious saunaLog homeSprawling deckWalls of cedar logs
    A retreat on Tom Lake in Hovland! 3+ acres, 185’ of frontage. Inspired by the vision of what a cabin in the Northwoods should mean, the property is focused on the elemental. This is a log home, with all the warmth and solidity that walls of cedar logs exude. Unlike cabins of the early days, there is plenty of light coming in and that solar radiance currently powers the home. Electrical power and fiber are scheduled to arrive this year in this remote, pristine corner of Cook County. There is a woodstove that crackles and glows dutifully, holding steady even when January dips deep below zero. Propane floor furnace for when the fire is not going. Water: provides the steam in the spacious sauna and the approximate 4.6 billion gallons in Tom Lake invite cold-plunging in the spring and fall, more leisurely wading and treading all summer. Get back to childlike wonder and backstroke under azure skies, an eagle soaring over! The boreal forest envelopes all, tree tops swaying, sylvan breezes refreshing the cabin, stoking the campfire for s’mores. Wood, water, air, and fire all come together here in a happy combination of remote comfort. Plenty of room, two bedrooms, spacious living room and sprawling deck. The bunkhouse is privately located across the deck to accommodate guests or kids. Make it an office if preferable. The bunkhouse is a neat complex of the sauna, which is just below the bunk area allowing for heat to emanate upward, and a modern, tidy outhouse. The solar system and generator shed is dialed in and could be retired, on standby or continued to be used once power arrives. The journey to the cabin eventually narrows and becomes a country road. There are some ups and downs, but nothing out of the ordinary for a remote getaway. A group of area neighbors are addressing a rougher section this year that will enhance the experience. Hovland is about 20 minutes and Grand Marais 40 minutes away for resupply or when a body craves the “city lights.” Most furnishings can be included. The property has been well maintained. Just show up and start enjoying!
