Take it from us- there's only one way you can enjoy beautiful Lake Birch more than via a shoreline cabin- on a houseboat!

Technically, all the houseboats have "cabins", so they totally belong on this list! Named Minnesota Resort of the year in 1998 and 2012 by the Minnesota Resort Association, grab a fishing rod, swimsuit, and gang of family or friends and heat to Timber Bay Lodge! From your mobile accommodation you can fish, swim, or simply enjoy the beautiful weather. On shore you can go on a hike through the Norway Pine forests or bike to Babbitt on one of the many paved trails (bicycles are available at the resort at no charge). Afterwards, return to a rustic cabin and enjoy some stargazing from the porch. Whatever floats your boat, Timber Bay is happy to accommodate.

Cabins are absolutely PACKED with cozy amenities; bask in the warming glow of a cozy fireplace or toast the sunset on a private lakeside deck. Of course, there's also the matter of Kavanaugh's "old-fashioned hospitality", something that you'll sincerely miss upon leaving.

Truly unique in both style and charm, Ludlow's Island Resort's gorgeous custom cabins and fantastic location on Lake Vermilion will leave you (and your family) dumbstruck.

Each cottage has been hand-crafted and continually improved over the course of seven decades; that includes the Resort's magnum opus: Dreamcatcher. This fantastic four-story treehouse offers unparalleled views of Lake Vermilion and the surrounding Norway pines. There are 22 cabins, each full stocked and intensely opulent. Whether you're looking for a remote, one-bedroom cabin for a romantic Minnesota getaway, or a large, 5-bedroom cabin for your family reunion, Ludlow's can find the perfect place for you. And all with a majestic view of sparkling Lake Vermilion's 40,000 acres of navigable waters, 365 islands and nearly 1,200 miles of shoreline!
