Secluded Cabins

Poplar Creek Guesthouse B & B

We offer two secluded year-around cabins-- the Little Ollie Lake Cabin and the new Poplar Creek Retreat. The Little Ollie Lake Cabin is located on the shores of Little Ollie Lake and the Poplar Creek Retreat sits on the banks of Poplar Creek just a short walk from the Lake. The Lake is great for canoeing, fishing and swimming and is the source of Poplar Creek. Skiing, snowshoeing, hiking and mountain biking trails begin at the front door of both cabins

The Poplar Creek Guesthouse B & B sits on a glacial esker overlooking Little Ollie Lake and a beautiful year-round flowing creek. Furnishings and decor have been inspired by mission style. The Guesthouse offers two bed and breakfast guestrooms and a housekeeping suite. Features include fireplaces, private baths, decks and a whirlpool guestroom. Wireless internet is now available.

Tall Pines and Croft Wilderness Yurts

Looking for a solitary, out-of-the-way vacation sanctuary, on the edge of the Boundary Waters without another soul around? Check out our Yurts! The Tall Pines Yurt, located on your own private Boundary Waters lake, is available year-round. In the summer, you can hike or bike to the yurt and in the winter, ski or snowshoe in. The Croft Yurt is available only during the winter and serves as a welcome overnight stop for skiers traveling along the Banadad Ski Trail on a Yurt to Yurt Ski Adventure Trip.
