Welcome to the drive you already know: north on 35, up the shore past Duluth, until somewhere along Highway 61 the week falls away. Bears Den Cottage #410 at Cove Point Lodge makes that weekend yours for good. Your cottage, your fireplace and your stretch of Lake Superior waiting at the end of it. It feels like checking into your favorite resort, because you own a piece of it. Bears Den pairs a private North Shore retreat with Rental Income Potential through the resort's established rental program, offering reservations, front desk, housekeeping and marketing support to offset ownership costs. Cottage #410 is currently enrolled in the Cove Point Lodge rental program with advance reservations on the books. Within the rental program, owners must make the cottage available a minimum of 200 nights per year, including 100 nights June 15 through November 1. Rental revenue split 50/50. Offered fully furnished and turnkey, the cottage lives larger than its footprint: 1,472 square feet across two levels, with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths and two fireplaces, sleeping four. A large stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the living area, and the owner's suite adds a gas fireplace and a jetted soaking tub (new in 2025) set to the panoramic lake view. Hardwood and tile floors, natural woodwork, a fully equipped updated kitchen, custom furnishings, curated artwork and quality linens complete the package. Recent updates include a new boiler, on-demand water heater, hardwood floors and deck. Washer and dryer hookups sit in the upstairs owners closet, plumbed for a stackable unit, an uncommon feature among the cottages here. One of the most private decks in the resort opens to towering pines and the sound of the lake. Ownership comes with the keys to the whole resort. Swim in the indoor pool while snow piles up outside, then warm up in the sauna and hot tub after a day on the trail. Your kitchen is fully equipped, but on nights you'd rather not cook, the main lodge restaurant and The Crossings are steps away. The association fee ($771/month, billed quarterly) covers building insurance, firewood, snow plowing and shoveling, lawn care, grounds and building maintenance, sewer lift station and pest control, so arrival day starts at the lake, not the to-do list. The Gitchi-Gami State Trail and the Cove Point Loop of the Superior Hiking Trail start at the resort driveway. Split Rock Lighthouse, Gooseberry Falls and Tettegouche State Parks are minutes away, with Duluth under an hour back down Scenic Highway 61. Historical and advance reservation information and Owner Statements available upon request. This information is a snapshot and is not a guarantee of future earnings. Evolution Team Member must be present for all showings. No showings when guests are in residence. Buyer and buyer's agent to verify all information.

The main floor has a gas fireplace and in the lower level family room there is a wood burning fireplace to give you that extra option of heating in the winter. Forced air heat with central AC connected. There is an option for heated floor in the lower level, pipes have been run, but not hooked up. There is a primary bedroom on the main floor with walk in closet and full bathroom. Additional bedroom and 1/2 bath on the main floor.

The property is just shy of an acre with city sewer and water, small creek with culvert and the shoreline is really cool with caves and large moss covered rock. Access to the shore could be improved, and is currently not easily accessed. You are just a few miles from Split Rock Lighthouse, Gooseberry State Park, Tettegouche, Black Beach and you are on the Gitchi Gami paved bike trail.

A rare opportunity to acquire a proven luxury short-term rental and legacy lakefront estate positioned in one of Northern Minnesota’s most desirable recreation markets near the North Shore and Lutsen. Following an exceptional 2026 winter season driven by snowmobile tourism and year-round destination demand, the property is already over 70% booked for the remainder of the 2026 calendar year across the existing rental cabins — showcasing the strength of the area’s tourism market and the increasing demand for luxury lodging inventory in this region. Due to active guest reservations and ongoing income-producing occupancy, showings for the rental cabins are by appointment only and subject to guest schedules. Buyers are encouraged to inquire regarding showing availability. Designed with both privacy and gathering in mind, the property offers an ideal setup for multi-family retreats, co-ownership opportunities, executive rentals, corporate retreats, or continued luxury vacation rental operations. Each of the three existing structures features its own unique layout, architectural character, and design aesthetic while still flowing cohesively together as a thoughtfully curated compound. This intentional approach creates a luxury hospitality feel while maximizing flexibility for both personal enjoyment and income generation. In addition to the two highly successful existing rental cabins, the owner’s current private residence offers substantial future upside as a potential third luxury rental accommodation. Unlike many expansion opportunities that require years of planning and infrastructure costs, this structure is already completed, fully functional, and positioned for relatively seamless conversion into an additional income-producing asset if desired. Future expansion opportunities are exceptionally rare in this area and include adjoining build-ready parcels already approved for commercial use. Existing conceptual plans allow for possibilities such as a restaurant/bar concept, boutique hotel suites, expanded lodging accommodations, or additional mixed-use development opportunities. Buyers may continue expanding the existing vision, create their own development concept, or potentially work with the current seller on future build completion opportunities if desired. Adding to the long-term value, the property benefits from grandfathered short-term rental positioning — a highly desirable and increasingly limited asset in many North Shore-area markets. Investors seeking premium inventory in a constrained supply market will immediately recognize the significance of this opportunity and the difficulty in recreating a property of this scale, flexibility, and location today. Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Superior National Forest, the setting offers exceptional wildlife viewing, including moose sightings, endless outdoor recreation, and truly jaw-dropping sunset lake views that simply cannot be recreated. Nearby restaurants, trails, snowmobile access, hiking, boating, and proximity to the North Shore lifestyle continue to drive strong year-round tourism demand and guest appeal. Constructed with luxury-grade materials, high-end craftsmanship, and timeless architectural design, the improvements were intentionally created to appeal to a broad luxury buyer profile while maintaining warmth, functionality, and durability. Major infrastructure components including septic systems, wells, and utility groundwork are already in place, significantly reducing future development costs and timelines. The additional lots are build-ready, creating immediate future upside without the typical development hurdles and infrastructure expenses. Whether envisioned as a luxury investment property, private family compound, hospitality venture, boutique resort concept, or multi-generational legacy estate, this is an increasingly rare opportunity to control premium waterfront acreage with both immediate income generation and substantial future ups

BOOKINGS ARE AT OVER 70% - Immediate income generating rental portfolio! Luxury Boutique Resort | Proven Short-Term Rental Portfolio | Build-Ready Lots | Commercial Expansion | Condo-Platted Flexibility A rare opportunity to acquire a proven luxury short-term rental and legacy lakefront estate positioned near the North Shore and Lutsen on the pristine shores of Ninemile Lake near Finland. Following exceptional 2025 and 2026 winter seasons driven by snowmobile tourism and year-round destination demand, the property has experienced outstanding occupancy performance, with the existing rental cabins already over 70% booked for the remainder of 2026 — validating the strong demand for luxury lodging inventory in this highly sought-after recreation market. Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Superior National Forest, this extraordinary waterfront development combines luxury craftsmanship, income generation, development flexibility, and unmatched outdoor recreation in one irreplaceable offering. Due to active guest reservations and ongoing income-producing occupancy, showings for rental cabins are by appointment only and subject to guest schedules. Designed for both privacy and gathering, the property is ideal for boutique hospitality operations, co-ownership opportunities, corporate retreats, multi-family use, or continued luxury vacation rental operations. Each of the three existing structures features its own unique architectural style, layout, and design aesthetic while still flowing cohesively together as a thoughtfully curated luxury compound. Constructed between 2015–2022, the homes showcase exceptional craftsmanship, timeless design, and luxury-grade materials selected to complement the surrounding wilderness setting. Two residences currently operate as successful short-term rentals with strong year-round demand driven by boating, fishing, hiking, skiing, snowmobiling, ATV recreation, and North Shore tourism. In addition to the established income-producing cabins, the owner’s current private residence presents substantial upside as a future third luxury rental accommodation. Unlike many expansion opportunities requiring years of approvals and infrastructure investment, this structure is already completed, fully functional, and positioned for relatively seamless integration into the existing rental operation if desired. Adding significant long-term value, the property benefits from grandfathered short-term rental positioning — an increasingly rare asset in many North Shore-area markets where vacation rental restrictions continue tightening. Future expansion opportunities are exceptionally rare and include six additional build-ready condo-platted lots with shared septic and well infrastructure already installed, dramatically reducing future development costs and timelines. Buyers may continue expanding the existing vision, bring their own builder, or partner with the original developer. The offering also includes an oversized commercial-zoned parcel approved for future hospitality-oriented development including a restaurant/bar, boutique motel, clubhouse, event venue, fitness center, or expanded lodging accommodations. Existing architectural plans are available. With over 1,800 feet of shared shoreline, breathtaking sunset lake views, year-round recreation, nearby restaurants and trails, and exceptional wildlife viewing including moose sightings, this property delivers an experience that simply cannot be recreated. Whether envisioned as a luxury boutique resort, hospitality investment, private family compound, phased development project, or multi-generational legacy estate, this is an increasingly rare opportunity to control premium Northwoods shoreline with immediate income generation and extraordinary long-term upside potential. They are not making more shoreline. Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare.
