There is a very efficient wood stove in the living room, and also propane and electric lights throughout, propane refrigerator, propane wall heaters controlled by thermostats, tankless on-demand hot water heater, and range with oven. The kitchen with a wonderful dining counter, living room, 3/4 bath, and bedroom, make up the main level...along with an attached huge 25 x 12 seasonal screen porch where owners regularly have great wildlife sightings including moose! The stairway to the loft has custom hand-hewn log railings leading to the 25 x 15 loft room that is a fantastic 2nd living room or a 2nd bedroom with great views and maple flooring. The home is south facing with vaulted ceilings and generous sized windows, and the cabin is filled with natural light and views into the wilderness! Features include well, septic, solar, campfire area, 24 x 8 deck, fully insulated utility shed that houses the generator and batteries, and the property directly adjoins thousands of acres of Superior National Forest lands!
