Cottage on Pequaywan

Beautiful Lake Cabin on private Smith/Little Pequaywan Lake on a 4-acre mostly wooded lot with old growth pines and plenty of parking.
100% remodeled 2 bedroom/1 bath cabin that sleeps 6. Everything in our 900+ square foot cabin is brand new and ready for your enjoyment.
The floor plan is a completely open concept with a fully equipped kitchen with island and peninsula overlooking the lake.
Included with cabin rental are kayaks/canoe/paddle boats ~ all the toys you need to enjoy the lake. The beach area is mostly sand/gravel bottom and very clean, perfect for the kids or that morning swim to start your day. Life jackets available from toddlers to adults.
We also have an 18’ pontoon boat with 4-stroke motor available on a limited basis and is $250 per day or $1000 per week – gas included. Smith and Little Pequaywan Lake are both private lakes so we cannot allow any launching of boats. Fishing is very good from the dock for panfish, bass, perch, and Northern pike. Because of the clarity of the lakes, walleyes are usually best caught at low light or on overcast days. The submerged islands are usually a good bet. Fishing gear is available free of charge for all skill levels. If needed, just let us know in advance what you need. If trout fishing is your thing, there are a few local trout lakes that are great fishing, just ask your host for locations and fishing tips.
Finish your day with a peaceful evening around the fire ring. Listen to calling loons while watching the sunset over the lake to the West. There's nothing better!
Your secluded lake life hideaway is just 30 minutes away from Two Harbors and access to Scenic Highway 61 and the beautiful North Shore of Lake Superior. 40 minutes from Duluth’s Miller Hill Mall, 45 Minutes from Duluth’s Canal Park. Country living with easy access to shopping and Duluth tourist attractions.
All seasons are great around the Pequaywan Lakes area. Winter provides miles of snow shoeing, cross country skiing and excellent ice fishing. Summer provides great opportunities for swimming, hiking, fishing and lake life relaxation. Fall is a great time for hunting enthusiasts, the Cloquet Valley Forest offers some of the best grouse hunting territory in the state. There are miles of hiking and biking trails, including the Superior Hiking trail right down the road. Take in the amazing fall colors that rival the North Shore, without the traffic!
We have wi-fi, internet and TV. Your AT&T cell phone will work in our area, but some other providers have limited service.
Find food and drink just down the road at the Pequaywan Inn. A quaint little restaurant and bar serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Hugo's Bar and Convenience Store is just a few miles away, offering beer, setups, and a limited menu. Hugo’s is also your best bet for basic essentials like bait, gas, propane, fishing license and groceries.
We are pet friendly and allow well-behaved dogs to stay with you. There is a $150 cleaning fee per dog, and they are not allowed to be in the cabin unattended or on the furniture or beds ~ please.
Note: Since this property has been 100% remodeled and landscaped there will be some disturbance to the soil and grounds that we will be finishing in the spring and early summer. There are numerous pieces of artwork and furniture from local artists/craftsman throughout the cabin and property. There are also limited pieces of artwork/furniture for sale with other items available for ordering.

Grandma’s Marathon Mini-Vacation
Accommodations around the Duluth area can be hard to come by during Grandma’s Marathon weekend. We were so fortunate to find this gem! The owners provided everything you need (and more) for the perfect lake vacation! We enjoyed fishing, using paddle boats, paddle boards, kayaks, having nightly bonfires, and even took a bike ride with the provided bikes! The only downfall is that we stayed such a short time, we will be back for a full week in the future! 10/10 rating!! Thank You Lori and John for everything!

Extended weekend getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here! Decided last minute to take the kids to the north shore for the fall colors. So happy I found this gem! Definitely could have used more time so that we could have enjoyed the property and the lake more! Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful Cabin!
My family and I had a great time at this little hideaway cabin. The place was well stocked with all the items we needed for a 6 day stay. There were fishing poles and all the gear and plenty of little fish to catch right off the dock. We enjoyed being outside and listening to the sounds of nature. There were comfortable beds and plenty of extra bedding. Toys for the kids were a big help! We highly recommend staying at this cozy little cabin, but would suggest bringing all of your food and necessities with you as there are very limited options nearby, but that has no bearing on the cabin itself. It’s a fantastic retreat!

Great "Up North" retreat
The cabin is very modern and slept all of us with ease. The lake view from the yard is gorgeous. Great fishing off the dock. My kids caught fish all throughout the day! We loved trying out the canoe, kayaks, paddle boards and paddle boat. It was really nice to have a fire pit both up by the cabin and again by the dock. We would definitely stay here. Lori and John are excellent hosts!

My Wife's Birthday Stay
John and Lori have a great spot. They had a Happy Birthday banner and gift basket waiting for us along with a couple of cake pops in the freezer. That was very thoughtful. The cabin was very clean and nicely finished. It really was a great stay. John and Lori were both very responsive.
