You are located in Ely proper, but about a .7 mile from downtown Ely.

Sandy Point landing is immediately adjacent to this property for complete ease of boat access. There is sufficient parking on site for trailers.

We have high speed internet, smart TVs and strong cell reception. There are several coffee shops and a new co-working space in town, if needed.

To rent boats or pontoons on Shagawa: Lake View Lodge, they will deliver to public boat launch on the lake. Call in advance.

While we have a fire pit, we do not provide firewood. DNR approved firewood can be purchased locally at many of the gas stations in town. The DNR prohibits transportation of firewood from outside of the Ely area in attempts to slow the spread of invasive species.

We had a great week. The water was warm enough for swimming and lollygagging in it. The fishing was good. The location on the point is private. Never felt the desire to turn on a tv. The kids took advantage of the bear and wolf centers. The Ely area has a lot to offer. I stayed at the lake except to go to the hotel for one meal.

Sandy Point was the perfect home for our large family vacation. We had the entire home. There was plenty of firewood for evening campfires. The sauna was relaxing. Renting a pontoon boat locally on the lake was easy. We also loved using the paddle board and kayaks. I highly recommend this home in Ely.

Fantastic location and beautiful house. The space was very comfortable for our extended family gathering. The location is very private and has wonderful views of the lake from every room. But it was just across the street from a paved trail (miles and miles of connecting trails), it is about 1 mile from town and we could walk to town on the trail. We had a canoe delivered to the house for the time we were there (shout out to Clif Wold for the canoe). Overall we were super happy with the place.
