This was our second trip to Fenske Lake. We loved it there last year, and loved it now. Jackpine cabin is very comfortable, the lake is great for fishing and swimming. There are lots of hiking trails nearby - around the lake and within a few miles drive in the superior national forest. Laurie and Chris are great hosts. Our... More

Over the last few years we have been at Fenske 5 times. We stayed in several cabins - all with cold water only and a half bath. We were looking for an rustic cabin experience in a quiet setting and we obviously were not disappointed! We always caught a lot more fish than we could eat - some years catching... More

We stayed at Fenske Cabins in September of 2012. Laurie, Chris and Chase were the perfect hosts! The cabins are enormous and have all the comforts of home. We stayed in the Spruce and it even had a dishwasher (though we didn't use it). We had our own private dock, boat, canoe and firepit. It was extremely peaceful and relaxing,... More

The Fenske Lake Resort Cabins are truly exceptional. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Jackpine cabin at the beginning of October 2011. The family that owns these cabins were great to work with - they could not have been kinder or more accommodating .The cabin was comfortable and relaxing, with just the right amount of amenities....

Spent 4 nights at Fenske resort and what a wonderful stay it was. We had a one bedroom (Norway) cabin...very simple, pine floors and walls, somewhat rustic but very comfortable. Pvt dock, canoe, full kitchen, outdoor grill and fire pit. Everything one could one for a great north woods stay. Beautiful lake...just a few miles from the Boundary Waters. Lots... More

We stayed in a one-bedroom cabin directly on Fenske Lake, just off the Echo Trail. Our cabin had all the comforts of home, including a refrigerator, stove, microwave and full range of dishware, pots and pans. You need to have all of your provisions with you because the ride to town (Ely) is about 30 minutes. We made all of... More

This was our first official non bushiness related vacation as a family and it truly was the best of anywhere we've been. Fenske Lake Cabins is really special and Laurie, Chris and family do a wonderful job of making it a relaxing space and time for guests. The accomodations were excellent, the views are spectacular and the whole experience is... More

This is a wonderful family-run resort. The cabins are nicely updated, the fishing is good - right from the dock, and the views are beautiful. Take a canoe or boat to the other end of the lake, take a hike, and come back to an old time sauna! Highly recommended.

This was the 3rd stay at Fenske Lake Cabins for my husband & I. We visit Ely from Arizona a few times a year and Fenske has been relaxing and tranquil. Chris and Laurie are wonderful hosts. The lodge is great for those that need the internet fix while in the wilderness. We like the peace and quiet and the... More
