Big Sisu - Newly Remodeled Nordic Hideaway on Silverthorn Lake

Nordic modern cabin on beautiful Silverthorn Lake in Seeley, located perfectly between Hayward and Cable for all your adventures. Towering pine trees shade a level grass and pine needle covered lot on clear spring-fed Silverthorn Lake. The lake is a quiet-sports lake and is perfect for swimming, paddling and fishing. Canoe and kayak included.

The cabin provides over 1300 square feet of newly renovated, Nordic inspired-design, open space luxury and comfort in a wilderness setting. The all encompassing massive windows bring the outdoors in. Giant covered deck, feet away from the lake, provides a great place to enjoy coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. The coveted Norwegian cast iron Jotul stove provides warmth and comfort throughout the main living area. Perfect on those crisp cool mornings. A large private dock and a fire pit with sitting area offer a great place to hang-out with family and friends and listen to the loons and trumpeter swans.

The Seeley area is a quiet sports mecca for mountain bikers, fat bikers, XC skiers, snowshoers, hikers, paddlers, fisherman and other outdoor sports enthusiasts. The famous Birkebeiner ski trails and CAMBA mountain bike trails are only a couple of miles away from the cabin and offer world class terrain that is meticulously mapped and maintained. There is indoor storage for bikes, canoes and other sports equipment with both a garage and a barn on the property.
