2 Bedroom Cabin in Silver Bay

The Palisade Log Cabin is a lake front, wooded private retreat on the north shore of Lake Superior. It is located just off Highway 61, one mile northeast of Silver Bay. It is about a half mile through heavily wooded lots to the 45-year-old secluded and authentic log cabin. The cabin sits on seven acres of private land, and has more than 460 feet of high rugged Lake Superior shoreline.
There are incredible views to the north of the Palisade Head Cliffs. These cliffs reach 350 feet high and are a favorite of rock climbers. You can hear the waves of the lake crashing against the ledge rock cliffs just 70 feet from the cabin. The sunrises over the lake are spectacular; in the evening you might be able to view the northern lights.
We installed a geothermal heating/cooling system in October 2012 which should keep the cabin warm and cozy all winter long, and cool in the summer. Enjoy the peace and solitude of the whispering pines and birch while watching a bald eagle flying above. You can read a book or play cards/games near the cabin’s warm wood stove. Outside you can toast marshmallows at the fire pit or play horseshoes. Search for Thomsonites, agates, crystals, cobblestones, or driftwood at the nearby Black beach, go berry picking, or view colorful spring wild flowers and brilliant fall foliage.
There are many things to do and explore in the area:
-Drive the Highway 61/Superior National Forest Scenic Byway and visit the beautiful Minnesota state parks nearby (see map).
-Hike on The Superior Hiking Trail that runs from Two Harbors to the Canadian border. -Ride your bike on the Gitche Gami Bike Trail that runs along Highway 61.
-Snowmobile on the North Shore State Snowmobiling Trail or drive an ATV on designated ATV trails from Duluth to Grand Portage.
-Try cross-country skiing on the North Shore Mountain Cross Country Ski Trail.
-Visit Lutsen Mountains ski resort 36 miles from the cabin.
In the summer you can go to Black Beach less then a mile away, and nearby beautiful sandy beaches which are part of Tettegouche State Park or hike to the beautiful High Falls. Take a charter boat tour or fishing trip out of the Silver Bay Marina, that is 3.5 miles to the southwest. If you're adventurous, you can go kayaking in the cove. Golfing is available at Silver Bay golf course, and there is live music in Silver Bay July 14- September 1.
Watch for giant iron ore carriers on Lake Superior; they depart from Silver Bay and head east to Cleveland. Look for wildlife around the cabin and you may see eagle, deer, moose, bear, fox, wolf, and beaver. If you don’t feel like cooking, dine at a variety of fine nearby restaurants (Northwoods Cafe in Silver Bay, Lemon Wolf in Beaver Bay, Cove Point Lodge in Beaver Bay; Rustic Inn near Two Harbors) or check out the new Timber Coffee Company near downtown Silver Bay.
There is also a local grocery store, Zups, located just five minutes for the cabin for last minute supplies.

Summary: We’ve stayed in this adorable cabin a few times and absolutely love it. It is small, but perfect size. The location is great, the view fantastic. Sarah responded immediately to my questions and was wonderful. The beds were comfy. And despite the extreme cold weather mid February we were toasty in the cabin. Already want to return.

Summary: This was our second stay at the Palisade Log Cabin. The cabin itself is super clean, well-equipped for cooking and dining in, and has comfortable spots to read, play games, and take in the gorgeous views of Lake Superior. We LOVE the privacy and serenity of the property. We couldn't ask for a more welcoming and relaxing place to be when we need to get away from it all!!

Summary: I loved my time in this amazing cabin. When I first walked in, I was awestruck. A picture can’t do justice to the impression made by those beautiful, huge logs and grand vaulted ceiling. Everything was pristine and well maintained. Sitting far off the highway, there is a wonderful sense of privacy since you cannot see the neighbor’s homes. The decor is tasteful and appropriate to the cabin and its setting. Furnishings are comfortable. Getting in and out was so easy, and it was very convenient for leashing my dog. Finally, you can’t beat the Lake Superior view. I so hope I’ll be able to return sometime.

Summary: This was our second stay at this lovely log cabin in a wonderful private setting on Lake Superior. Perfect for a couple. Quality amenities all around with a great wood fired sauna just a few steps from the cabin. The lakeside deck faces almost due east for some amazing sunrises.

Summary: We stayed 5 nights and were pleased to find a very fine crafted wooden cabin with huge logs and awesome views of the lake and the cliffs. Quiet cabin, comfortable beds, effective heating, everything appears new and well designed. The "anti"-slip mat in the bath tub was slippery. Just place a hand towel over it and it goes well. No reason to complain. The cabin might be too much a treasure to let dogs in. Outside, you may hear traffic, neighbours, and dogs. Since it is very quiet inside, we think that the cabin is well insulated. We recommend the place and would like to come back.
