Mökki Dwelling by the Dock
The cute dwelling is just minutes from the famous Hovland dock where you can catch a sunset, jump in for an invigorating swim or simply stargaze from the dock.
The property also boasts a fantastic wood-fired sauna - perfect for rejuvenating.
The log cabin is located in Hovland MN, which is 20 minutes northeast of Grand Marais, near the Canadian border and Lake Superior.
The cabin is a work of art; designed and built by a local carpenter and North House Folk School instructor. This small 11' x 20' space has everything you need to slow down and reconnect with yourself, your partner and nature making it your perfect North Shore getaway.
- Rejuvenate in the wood-fired sauna with water from the rain barrels or melt snow for bathing. Be brave enough to jump off the dock and run back up the road to the sauna!
- Take in the forest floor from the large windows, keep an eye out for the deer as they stroll through the back clearing.
- Sit by the fireplace or laze in the sky chair.
Perfect for solo adventurers and couples willing to pack-in/pack-out drinking water and linens. There isn't running water or a cleaner. Your ability to ‘Pay it Forward’ and leave the place as you found it is fundamental to maintaining an affordable experience in a healthy space for the next folks who are seeking a peaceful place to rest and rejuvenate.
The cabin is equipped with:
- wood sauna & outhouse
- woodshed with an ax (be prepared to split your kindling)
- gas fireplace for heating
- gaslighting and solar lighting
- 4-burner gas cooktop (oven currently out of commission)
- 1 cooler *Bring ice!

- solo stove fire pit (respect fire bans)
- dishes, cutlery, pots, pans, cutting board, kettle, dishwashing basin, gray water pail
