About this property

Nestled between Hidden Valley trails and Ely's cute downtown, a perfect homebase

This spacious property is the perfect homebase for all your Ely area adventures. If you mt bike or nordic ski, or just like to walk beautiful trails through the woods, you'll love the convenient, quiet, and forested location. If you like restaurants, the arts and fun-outdoorsy shops, you're in luck too - located at the city limits, less than a half mile from the grocery store. If you need a jumping off point into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, this is your spot as well, with amenities such as a deck, a dishwasher and a full laundry room.

November-December considerations for family gatherings are the well-appointed kitchen and large dining table (new pictures just uploaded!) Hidden Valley Nordic Ski trails are also groomed early season, sometimes as soon as Nov 20th (fat biking is a shoulder-season option of course too!)

The home was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our own meals. Communication was smooth and everything was ready when we arrived.There were plenty of books and games to keep us busy.We were close enough to town to be able to grab a quick bite but far enough away that we were in the woods. We saw deer and several kinds of birds right outside the window!

Family trip

Our family went to Ely to ride the ATV trails. The property is very close to the trails and easy to get into town. The property was clean and a great place to come back to at night after a long day of trails. The neighbor was horrible so be aware.
