Family vacation
We had a wonderful week at Sandy’s beautiful home and cabin on Burntside Lake. The location was ideal, on a gorgeous part of Burntside Lake. We were able to swim, fish, and canoe right from the house. Close to the Boundary Waters for day trips. Ely was a short drive for dinner and trips to the wolves and bears. Fantastic vacation!

Beautiful cabin and area. Cabin was extremely clean with lots of supplies in the kitchen. Kids loved using the canoe. Fishing was excellent on Burntside Lake. Caught many bass. Make sure to bring bug spray. We would definitely stay again.

Relaxing Vacation
Comfortable, quiet location. Excellent view through pine trees of the lake and distant islands. Guest house is cozy for two, with fireplace, private deck, TV, and kitchen. We enjoyed the sauna and swimming daily. Dock provided safe tie-up for our fishing boat, and electric outlets to charge batteries. All facilities in the house and on the grounds are up to date and in good order. A couple of times we made the 15-minute drive to Ely, to shop and visit cultural activities. Overall we're very pleased with our stay, and with the attention to detail by the owner. Morris and Teresa B.

Beautiful Lake and Great Accommodations
The setting of both cabins on the lake is beautiful, as is the lake itself. The main cabin has plenty of space and the guest cabin works great for two people. Both cabins were very clean and well-kept. It was really nice having the sauna. We brought kayaks and a canoe, also rented a pontoon from Ladybug, so had plenty of opportunities to be on the lake. Our kids and grandchildren also enjoyed their time; a thumbs up from everyone!

Wonderful week at the lake
This is one of the best properties we have rented. Beautiful setting. Right on the lake. Wonderful gardens all around property. Very well supplied kitchen. The only thing about this vacation that was a apin were the black flies - northern MN in July. Once we did some fogging that was taken care of as well. We used all of the decks and picnic area by lake. Firepit was great the nights the winds were down. There were four couples and we all agreed we could easlily rent this property again. Just amazing.

Very comfortable rental property!
Everything about the property is exceptional! The only complaint I have, which has nothing to do with the property, is the biting gnats! There are so many right now, because of the high water. Bring lots of bug spray and/or bug netting and a hat. I highly recommend this property. Burntside lake is a beautiful lake!

Amazing family sabbatical
A beautiful home on a perfect lake for great fishing, deep water swimming, pontoon and kayak adventures and exploring islands! Rental of a pontoon through Ladybug Lodge went smoothly. We loved the option of the little cabin for our son's family. A couple of disappointments-the sauna stove was glitchy and didn't work the way instructions stated. Then we lost hot water on the 3rd morning of a 5 day stay and ended up boiling water for the next 24 hours to do dishes and wash up for 9 people. It would have been understandable that something happened no one expected - but when we were told to consider it like camping and basically that people had endured much worse, We weren't sure how important it was to them to get it restored. We felt patronized when I think we would have appreciated "how can we help make this work better for you?" Thankfully plumbers showed up the next afternoon and the situation remedied. All in all a sweet time with family and some small frustrations.

Wonderful Stay
The location allowed for the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation for our group of 2 families (family of 4 and family of 5). The swimming area and dock provided hours of entertainment for our children while the adults relaxed on the shore. We enjoyed taking our kayak out on the lake along with the canoe that was provided. We caught enough fish for a fish fry. We were able to take a day trip to Split Rock Lighthouse and Tettegouche State Park. We hiked to nearby Kawishiwi Falls. A couple in our group also hiked the Bass Lake trail and enjoyed it. We appreciated the cleanliness of the cabins. It would have been nice to know we would be expected to bring our own bath towels and washcloths before booking this rental. We did not know we needed to pack these things until a week before we left. Overall, the cabin worked very well to provide our families with a memorable vacation.

Very happy with the size and quality of the home. The location was only 10 minutes away from town. We rented a pontoon and didn't have very good luck fishing but enjoyed the gorgeous views of the lake. Would recommend this home to others!

Beautiful cabin, beautiful lake!
We loved our stay & highly recommend it! We have two kids, ages 3 & 1. Some things about the cabin are not ideal for kids under 3, no rail on parts of the deck, lots of furniture that could easily tip, etc, but the description doesn’t give the impression the cabin is baby proof so we knew the risk! Our kids loved playing on the beach & wading in the water. We rented a pontoon from Ladybug Lodge for the week & had an amazing time exploring the lake. The owners were good communicators & the check in/out process was easy. We also really loved Ely & all the fun shops and restaurants-it was about a 15-20 minute drive into Ely from the cabin.

Totale Relaxation
I'm not sure we could have enjoyed ourselves more. The accomidations were perfect for our family and friends that came over the course of the week. Closeness to Ely makes it convenient when you need or want to go into town but you also feel like you are at the end of the road when it comes to peace & quiet. I haven't been that relaxed on a vacation for quite some time. Thx Sandy & Jay for sharing your property with us. Ben & Michelle P

Beautiful home on large pristine lake.
This lovely home was perfect for our large family along with the nearby cabin on same property. Immaculate and well equipped with a southern lake exposure which made the beach and dock area most inviting. Close to Ely, which offers great shopping and dining. Also convenient for hiking trails and BWCA.

Relaxing Vacation Spot
We had an enjoyable 10 day visit in late May during the Memorial weekend. Accommodations for our group of 4 were great. We ended up cooking/grilling a majority of the time and found everything we needed in a well stocked kitchen. On the cold and rainy days, we were able to take advantage of the sizable DVD library. It was also nice being 10-15 mins from Ely for groceries and other activities. We enjoyed sitting on the deck soaking in the view of the lake and surrounding scenery. Fishing was a bit challenging but then again it was our first time visiting this lake and we aren't hard core fisherman. Although the owners made us feel welcome and were very accommodating, they were on-site staying in the guest cabin and working in the garage/yard half of the time we were there which made it a little uncomfortable. Overall we had a great visit and would recommend to other travelers.
