Historic Westhaven Lodge on Lake Vermilion - Since 1935
About this cabin rental
Nestled in Lake Vermilion, this charming cabin for $527 per night is a great option for your next vacation. In existence since 1935, Westhaven Lodge has a private setting with a premier location on the south side of Big Bay of Lake Vermilion. Recently remodeled, the 3,200 sq. ft. single-story lodge has its own large dock with a 4,000-lb. boat lift, a fire pit and wood-burning sauna, a fish cleaning house and a large pebble beach that it shares with our two-bedroom seasonal cabin (Cabin 1 at Westhaven Lodge, which is also available for rent if you need more than six bedrooms for your group). The lodge can easily handle a large crowd. The master bedroom faces the lake and has a queen bed; two more bedrooms with lake views also contain queen beds; and a fourth bedroom has a full bed. Two more bedrooms contain multiple bunk beds. The lodge also has a large great room with a beautiful granite fireplace, a four-season porch, a large kitchen, and a large dining room that can easily fit up to 16 at the table. Note that a 10% discount is offered on the nightly rate if you rent for a whole week or more. If your party is even larger, Cabin 1 at Westhaven Lodge, which is next door and has its own lake frontage with a separate dock and boat lift, can easily handle more guests. It has one bedroom containing a queen bed and a second that holds another bunk bed and a separate twin bed. Both lodging facilities are completely finished with pine interiors that have granite fireplaces dating back to the 1930s. Please see VRBO Listing #682304 for more information on Cabin 1. Note that while the lodge is great for use all year 'round, Cabin 1 is, unfortunately, only available early May through mid-October. No additional fees for either cabin other than sales tax are applied; however, a damage deposit is required. Questions? Please contact Rodger. A canoe, two kayaks, and small paddle boat are also included with the lodge, as are fishing boats without a motor. Pets are allowed in either cabin, and both structures have decks facing the lake. Because the sun rises and sets so far to the north in the summer, and because we're on a little point, Westhaven Lodge is ideal for watching both as it faces due north with more than a180-degree view of Big Bay. The main boat lift can accommodate a speed boat or fishing boat up to 4,000 pounds, and a second smaller boat lift can take up to 2,400 pounds. The nearest free boat launch is just over a mile away, and a large parking lot and trailer storage area also serve both structures. Other features include a baby grand piano, a playhouse, a swing set and a basketball hoop. (Sorry, there's no pickleball court, but the nearest ones are only a mile or so away at the Greenwood Township Hall.)

The lodge was a great place for our family. There was room inside and out for the kids to play. The bedrooms were on one end so the little ones could nap. Everyone enjoyed the firepit, the beach and the area in general. We will definitely book it again.

We've stayed at many different cabins around Lake Vermilion, this is the first cabin that we attempted to book AGAIN only two days into our trip. It's perfect for large families: Has lots of yard space for activities, it's plenty spacious inside and fishing off the dock was great!

Our stay at Westhaven Lodge was wonderful. I realize many enjoy this property in the summer but it is a gem to enjoy winter in MN. A great place for family fun.

We were there for thanksgiving and it was really cold-we are from Florida, but it was great. We saw a huge buck in the driveway when we arrived. The lodge is very spacious, we only had 4 adults but there is room for a lot of people. We made Thanksgiving dinner and the kitchen was well stocked-we found a mixer, whisk, measuring cups/spoons and there are crock pots, salt etc. We had a great time-we will have to come back in the summer.

The cabin is the perfect spot for a large group of people. Plenty of space for sleeping and indoor activities if the weather is not ideal. We will definitely be back.

It is tough to find a cabin to accommodate large family and dogs...the ‘Lodge’ was PERFECT!! So much room to spread out on a rainy day....large dining table for meals and games......nice kitchen, a second refrigerator was a bonus. Huge property to run and play. Love Vermillion....love the walleye...love the sunrise on the dock. Thank you for making our family vacation a dream.

We stayed at the historic Woodhaven Lodge this past weekend for our annual fall fishing trip. Upon arrival and to the day we checked out, everything exceeded all of our expectations! The overall size was great (Pictures do not do it justice at all) for our large group and having the bedrooms on a different side of the house was a huge bonus for those that wanted to stay up a little later than the others. All of the bedrooms and gathering areas were all very clean and kept up and everything was functioning properly! The biggest plus was having all of the space and room out where we parked. We had 5 full size pickups and 3 boats all of which were 20+ feet long and we had no problems finding areas to park or to turn around.The location on the lake was great as you could get to just about anywhere with a short boat ride. It was also great because the proximity to an access and also close to the casino and a few golf courses. We absolutely loved our stay here and there are a few of us that were talking about possibly renting it again but this time with our own families.

Stayed on the lake many times over the years; and was excited to try this as a new place. Very comfortable cabin; with a great location on the lake. Stayed with 7 adults, and there was tons of room to spare. Large dock and bonfire pit are an awesome addition.
