Your peaceful exploration destination starts here. Located at the end of a dead-end road, surrounded by pines and birch in the middle of 4 acres. Partial Lake Superior view from the studio windows, the 2nd floor of a detached garage. Very quiet, no drive-by traffic, and secluded from neighbors. If you're traveling to visit the sights and explore the North Shore you'll fit right in.

The space
Enjoy this unique setting, as you enter through the man door on the garage you'll notice the nice man cave, this area of the building is not private, but guests are welcome to hang out, socialize, cook, etc. Through another door inside you will enter a stairwell leading up to the second floor studio which is private and all yours to enjoy while staying here.

Partial lake view from front windows! One bedroom with a double bed, a 3/4 private bathroom with a giant great room that has an additional queen bed. TV and WiFi, TV entertainment via internet for apps like NETFLIX, DVD player, mini fridge, and microwave for you to use. The whole upper floor is private and yours while you enjoy your stay. It is roughly 890sqft. There is ample parking for trailers in my driveway/parking lot.

Below the Studio exists the Man Cave. There is a gas range/oven and full sized fridge to use with a tub style sink, some basic cookware is supplied for the apartment. I’ve also now added silverware, plates, bowls, various utensils, and a cutlery set for your convenience. Please wash any items you use and return them to storage before checking out.

The shop is heated, sledders may thaw out their gear and sleds there. Sleds must have wheel dolly's for skis! There is direct access to the snowmobile trail from my property as well. Other nearby attractions are the bike trail, Superior hiking trail, local bars, restaurants, and gas stations all within walking/biking distance. Explore the Northshore!

Neighborhood highlights

Beaver Bay is a unique little town on the North Shore with its many restaurants, gift shops, and nearby state parks. You can enjoy the Northshore bike trail, Superior hiking trail, Beaver River waterfalls and beach down by the lake which is all close by! If you're a motorsport fanatic like myself you'll love leaving from the doorstep on your wheeler or snowmobile and have direct private access to the Beaver Bay spur trail. From there you can ride to all over northeastern MN.

My property will give you a secluded feeling, while still being on city services. It is at the center of 4 acres owned by myself. If peace and quiet are what you wish to have this is a great place for that as well.

My work: Charter Captain
Lives in Beaver Bay, Minnesota
Driven and hard working, but in my free time I enjoy the outdoors and motorsports such as: Hunting, fishing, fourwheeling, camping, hiking, exploring, snowmobiling, dirtbiking. My favorite places to be are where I live (North Shore of Lake Superior) and the Rocky mountains. I travel as much as I can. Love for the lake has brought me to my new career as a charter captain on Lake Superior.
