About 5740 Illgen Bluff Rd
More than just a Lake Superior retreat! Enjoy a breathtaking 180° view of Lake Superior and the Sawtooth Mountains stretching all the way to Grand Marais. Generously surrounded by public lands/Tettegouche State Park, the setting is truly spectacular! From the amazing old-growth pines surrounding the property to the huge sweeping views of Lake Superior, it'll be tough to decide if you want to hang out all day or hit the state bike trail, the Superior Hiking Trail or visit one of the many nearby parks, lakes or rivers. Walk right out the front door and hop on the snowshoe trail that the owners so heartily carved out. Handcrafted by Lake Country Log of Sicamous, BC in 2016, this remarkable home features Western red cedar from Vancouver Island, BC. Views of the Apostle Islands can be enjoyed from the loft and even from the copper claw-foot tub! A Tulikivi soapstone fireplace from Finland keeps things warm and cozy, complemented by in-floor heat. Inside, you’ll find cedar shiplap and manomin reclaimed wood floors throughout, plus soapstone countertops and alder cabinets. If you enjoy a nice breeze and a soothing setting, the screened porch offers an incredible setting morning, noon and night. The owners have the pleasure of sharing this remarkable home/cabin as a successful short-term rental, too. It truly is an exceptional North Shore experience!
