Description for 3872 Mud Creek Rd, Ely, MN, 55731
Experience true Northwoods living at Ely Log Cabin, a hand-built log home set on 40 private acres just 15 minutes from downtown Ely and nearby 2 Minnesota state parks. This 864 sq ft off-grid cabin offers modern comforts including a 3/4 indoor bathroom with a flushing toilet and shower (full well and septic), solar power, and WiFi — a rare find for an off-grid property. The main cabin features vaulted ceilings, a Jøtul gas fireplace, an efficient kitchen setup with propane cooktop and fridge, and a sleeping loft with two queen beds overlooking the forest valley. A second structure, the Dovetail Cabin, offers additional sleeping space or studio potential, with its own road access and outhouse. Enjoy peaceful forest views, bird sounds, and miles of private hiking trails right on the property. This is a true retreat surrounded by nature, with easy access to nearby lakes and outdoor recreation. Wolves have been heard howling and grouse, deer, and even bear sightings aren’t uncommon on this incredible land with huge cliff faces and a creek right on the 40 acres.
