Hygge on the Boundary

The cabin was so comfortable that we knew we would enjoy our visit the moment we opened the door. The property on the boundary of the Boundary Waters was great and had everything we needed to make a wonderful wintertime visit with family. With our binoculars and the binoculars on the porch windowsill, 2 of us at a time could view the wolf running across the snowcovered lake. Our hosts were so welcoming which made our journey special. Thank you,

A wonderful 50th Anniversary vacation

The lake house was perfect in every way for doing what we love to do, which is spending time with family and enjoying nature. The set up was great for playing games, bird watching, dining in multiple areas.The views of the lake were amazing! Having our own deck was great for canoeing and fishing. We've stayed at many places and this was by far our favorite.

Perfect House and location

Kial’s house is on the north side of Fall Lake. You can’t help downloading because of this location along with the home decorations and lake front beauty. Kial has thought of everything you need and the House is very organized. We will be back!

Beautiful and inviting vacation home

Nestled in the woods on Fall Lake, our vacation home was beautiful and so homey. It met all of our needs-local boat rental, we could use the dock for the week. We loved the area for nightly campfires and star gazing. The little bench area our furballs and kids and grandkids loved making sandcastles and relaxing. It’s the perfect location and we will be sure to rent again in years to come. It’s close enough to town and far enough for privacy. We loved it

Great family get-away

We had a great 4-generation get-together here, and it was everything we were looking for--a nice location with woods and water, close enough to Ely and to a wide variety of outdoor activities. The hosts made everything easy for us and were responsive to our questions.

In hopes to see the comet

Great location for a fall family get-together. We had mild temperatures allowing us time to explore the outdoors. Clear night skies to look for the comet and northern lights. The home is so large and comfortable. Open floor plan with a beautiful, windowed room overlooking the lake. Large kitchen with all the supplies we needed. Bedrooms with comfortable beds and linens. Large bathrooms with a tub and/or shower. Homeowners always approachable and great with their communication. We did not get to see the comet yet enjoyed quality family time just the same. Thank you for a lovely stay at your beautiful lake home.

Beautiful home

This home is absolutely beautiful! Everything you need for a week stay is there for you and I love how the kitchen cabinets had labels so you knew right where to put things back. The owners have thought of every detail for your comfort and I even received a text the day we checked in to make sure everything was satisfactory. Our dog had fun swimming in the lake and we all enjoyed sitting on the deck. I would highly recommend this home for your Ely stay. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Dave and Kial Rushlow

We purchased this cabin with a long history of vacationing in Ely. We love the unique and rugged wilderness of the area and the friendliness of the people who live here. We love the idea of offering our cabin to others to experience a place that heightens your senses like possibly never before. With so many things to do during all the season of the year, Ely, Fall Lake and The Boundaries Lake Home welcome you!

Why they chose this property

The Boundaries Lake Home welcomes you and your family to a truly unique and wonderful vacation. The 3 bedroom, 2 bath lake home has 2 floors for you and your family to spread out. With a full kitchen and gas grill, you can choose to do all of your cooking at the cabin.. The sunroom, deck, and large screened-in porch allow you amazing views of the lake while dining, reading a book or playing a game of cards. Fish from the dock or sit around the campfire down by the water's edge. A boat landing nearby allows you to bring your own boat.

What makes this property unique

We believe our cabin is unique in that you and your friends and family have direct access into the Boundary Waters right from our dock. Get your permit, gather your gear and supplies and put in from the dock. Then after a few days experiencing the solitude and pristine beauty of the Boundary Waters, return to the cabin for hot showers, soft beds and time to reminisce about the trip you just had. While you're doing that, plan next year's trip back to Ely and the BWCAW!
