This property is very secluded and located directly on Upper Holmes Lake. This is a non public lake and there are also 200 private acres of land for your recreational use.
The Lodge has it’s own private dock, with a fishing boat, canoe and paddle boat provided. If you do like to fish, the lake is home to panfish, bass, pike & walleye. If you enjoy watching and listening for birds, you will likely see and hear loons swimming on the lake. Bald eagles nest in the trees around the lake. And songbirds are plentiful — the whippoorwills especially like to make their presence known!
You may hear wolves and coyotes howling at night, or see some deer, bear, beaver, or maybe even a moose! Also, if it is a clear night and the conditions are right, you may be able to view the Northern Lights!
Feel free to swim in the lake, if that is an activity you enjoy!
There is a railroad track crossing the north end of the lake, which is quite a sight when a train goes by!
You are welcome to bring your own kayak for use on the lake. If you have a bigger boat, the Michigamme Reservoir is only five minutes away, where you will find a great boat launch and plentiful fishing. While they are not permitted on the property itself, there are also great trails nearby for ATVs and ORVs.
