Great Vacation Exceeding Expectations

It was even more than I expected and my husband, son-in-law, 2 brothers all liked this place very much. It had everything we needed and much more. We were there primarily to enjoy time together and get out in our boat which we usually manage to do about once a year. If you wanted more than fishing there was plenty available, too, such as many lovely places to sit outside or inside, cable T.V.,books, area information, games. The fishing was great fun and we had fresh fish to eat every day we were there. Jerry was very accomodating and their property was very clean, homey, well supplied with everthing needed. Also with all good beds, good appliances, nicely furnished and decorated. It was a very good vacation enjoyed by all of us!

Beautiful property

Had an amazing long fishing weekend here and would absolutely come back. Beautiful property and fit the needs of our group of five wonderfully. We appreciated how clean and furnished it was. Excellent dock that could accommodate both of our fishing boats. Jerry was easy to communicate with and a great host.

Lovely in the Fall

We had the pleasure of spending our 40th Wedding Anniversary at The Cottage, on Lake Vermilion. This is much more than a cottage—it is a lovely home on the lake with lots of room. The home is nicely furnished as was the kitchen, and everything was very clean. It is situated in the middle of the lake, so it has great access to getting most anywhere on the lake. The area is beautiful in the fall. Jerry was an excellent host, and my husband joked that “Jerry is the perfect concierge—available when you need him and invisible when you don’t.” Hosts Jerry and Lori reside next door, but we really were able to enjoy this large venue and feel like “it was all ours” with plenty of privacy. We would highly recommend this property to others who wish to vacation at Lake Vermilion

About the host

Hosted by Jerry Allen

We started coming to Lake Vermilion in the 1970's with close friends in search of the elusive walleye while staying at many resorts and rental cabins on the lake, always dreaming about owning our own cabin. Finally we purchased our cabin on Frazer Bay in 1992 which now continues to provide us with many wonderful memories and is located next door to The Cottage.

Why they chose this property

Our dear neighbors owned The Cottage next door and with their family we created many wonderful memories. As they grew older and realized they needed to sell we struggled with losing the uniqueness of our shared special spot. So in 2014 we bought the cottage so memories would continue to be made and shared by others.

What makes this property unique

The beauty of The Cottage is the lot is level on the water's edge for family activities. The Cottage is a private, secluded property with 350 feet of lakeshore and over 5 acres of land. The adjoining bay provides privacy while watching water fowl and turtles sitting on rocks. The Cottage has easy access for swimming, boating, fishing and watching wildlife including bald eagles soaring overhead and deer roaming the property. A sauna is available for relaxing and enjoying the northern woods. The Cottage is located only a few hundred feet from the public boat landing for easy boat access in and out of the water.
