Holiday houses in Cook

An absolutely amazing trip. We booked the boathouse to get away from the world for a few days and experience one of Minnesota's beautiful lakes. When we arrived at the boat landing, Julia was waiting for us and took us out to the island. During our visit, we never went further out then we could paddle. The island is a very serene setting - a perfect blend of awe inspiring nature, as well as rustic, yet very comfortable anemities. We spent our days sleeping in a comfortable bed, cooking lunch in the full kitchen while taking in the beauty of the lake, taking in the smell of the pines and exploring the waters on kayaks, paddleboards, and the aquabike. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset every night from the shore, and took our time looking at the endless stars before before retiring to the boathouse for the night. At night, we listened to the waves crash against the shore and loons sing to each other. To the people who grew up visiting the Northwoods, this will feel very nostalgic, and people who have never been will enjoy the new memories and experiences greatly. A perfect place to disconnect from the world. In addition to the wonderful nature and great boat house, Julia is an absolute gem of a person. From the moment we met her, she was so kind and welcoming. You can tell she has a great love and appreciation for the island. She was extremely responsive to questions prior to arriving, as well as when we were on the island. I cannot thank her enough.

Very nice home to base out of for our snowmobile trip. Easy to find and plenty of parking for 2 pickups and trailers. The snowmobile trail is right out the end of the driveway-easy access. April was always just a call or text away to help with your stay. The home is spacious and a nice open floor plan. We utilized the heated garage to thaw out one of the snowmobiles and do some minor repairs.

This was exactly what was presented in the listing and exactly what our little family needed. The cabin was clean, furnished wonderfully, and right on the lake with a great view. We went up to spend time not only on the lake but also in near by cities and the location was perfect. We were able to make a day trip to Ely and visit the International Wolf Center and the North American Bear Center one day and another day visited Bear Head State Park and Sudan Underground Mine. Lynn and Asad were extremely welcoming and helpful. We were able to spend 5-7 hours swimming on the beach at the lake and used the vintage paddle boat, and kayak. It was an all around great experience and my 13 year old daughter already has asked to make this trip a tradition each year. Highly recommend.

I/we loved being on the island my in-laws used to own! Hence the name Rasmusson Island.😊 The island is in my opinion the best place on the lake as far as location. My only negative comment would be that the loft is not adult friendly due to the low ceiling. I’m 65 yrs old and I managed my way around the loft and the steep ladder to it.(moved slowly) Mike and Alyssa were AWESOME hosts and communicated well with me!! I hope to return to the island in the near future.

Went to Vintage Vermilion with my buddies for our annual fishing trip, and it did not disappoint! Lake Vermilion is by far the best lake I have ever fished, and I am already wanting to come back. The space is perfect with many cabins, activities, and amenities. I would highly recommend two things to those coming here. Pack a lot of bug spray and get your groceries before coming to the cabin! The mosquitos are on a new level at Vermilion during the mornings and nights. The nearest grocery store is about a 40 minute drive away from the resort so be sure to stock up before hand! Would HIGHLY recommend this spot for fishing and a peaceful getaway!

Awesome cabin on a beautiful lake! The cabin is in a quiet location with great lakeside amenities. The cabin is beautifully decorated and is very well stocked. Heidi and Paul are great hosts with a quick response time to any questions. I would highly recommend this cabin!

The cabin was a perfect getaway for few days during the fall season. We were able to see the beautiful colored leaves right at peak before they began to drop from all the wind. The cabin location is easy to get to and instructions were clear. We were able to fish off the dock, and see many deer right out the kitchen window the first couple mornings. Matt’s communication was quick to respond and very helpful when needed.

Great place to stay! Had an amazing time with my friends. It’s a beautiful place to stay and very peaceful. Nice place to escape and go fishing.
