Tucked deep in the woods, Aurora Cabin feels like a secret waiting to be discovered. Walls of glass bring the forest inside, letting sunlight play across warm wood surfaces and minimalist, modern interiors. By day, the deck is perfect for slow mornings with coffee and endless forest views; by night, a skylight above the loft bedroom frames the northern sky, letting you drift off under a canopy of stars.

About the Space

Every corner of Aurora Cabin is designed to feel effortless yet intentional. The living area, warmed by radiant floors and a sleek propane fireplace, invites quiet evenings with a book or long conversations. The kitchen, subtle but luxurious, makes cooking feel like a ritual, not a chore. Plush linens, curated local touches, and boutique amenities create a sense of ease — a cabin that doesn’t just offer a stay but a moment to slow down, breathe, and reconnect. A shared sauna and firepit make it simple to linger outdoors, whether it’s midwinter or the heart of summer, while the loft and private suite ensure restful nights, each space with its own quiet magic.

Why We Chose It

Aurora Cabin is more than architecture or finishes — it’s a feeling. Light, structure, and nature converge in a way that quietly inspires. Every window frames a view, every texture invites touch, and every angle brings the forest a little closer. It’s the kind of place where time seems to pause, where stargazing, coffee, and the quiet rhythm of the woods are the real luxuries.

Meet Your Hosts

Addie & Ben

We’re a couple who fell in love with the Northwoods long before we started sharing it with others—we even got married at a campsite in 2018! The peace and quiet of Ely captured our hearts, and in 2020 we launched the Cabin Collective to share that magic with fellow travelers. For the past five years, we’ve loved hosting guests and helping them unplug, unwind, and reconnect with nature. Addie grew up in Ely, so she’s full of insider tips and local favorites to make your stay extra special. We can’t wait to welcome you to the Northwoods!
