Property Description
Looking for a Northern cabin getaway that actually pays for itself while you're not using it? Nestled on nearly 5 private acres with 156 feet of sandy frontage on Dowling Lake, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath retreat combines the charm of a Northwoods lodge with the earning power of a proven vacation rental. Offering over 3,600 finished square feet, the home was thoughtfully designed for entertaining, comfortably accommodating large families, retreats, or group gatherings. The heart of the home is its great room, where vaulted ceilings, expansive lake facing windows, and a brick wood-burning fireplace create an inviting space to gather after a day on the lake. The adjoining chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, generous counter space, and a commercial-grade stove—ideal for preparing meals for a crowd. Multiple dining and lounge areas flow seamlessly to a wraparound porch, extending the living space outdoors. 5+ spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with a private spa bath, walk-in closet, and bonus nursery or dressing room, provide restful retreats. A main-level den serves as an optional sixth sleeping area or private office. Two detached garages expand the possibilities—one is heated and finished for recreation or storage, while the other offers a loft ready to be transformed into additional guest space or a studio. This property's appeal extends year-round: summers on the sandy shoreline, crisp autumn weekends by the fire, winter snowmobiling and ice fishing, and spring retreats just 30 minutes from Duluth and 15 minutes from Superior. With consistent gross income of $130,000+ annually and the potential to net $30,000–$40,000 after expenses, the lodge balances lifestyle enjoyment with smart investment returns. Whether kept as a personal getaway with income upside or operated as a full-time short-term rental, this property delivers privacy, versatility, and lasting value. Come schedule a tour today!
