About this rental

About This Rental

Haeli House is an architecturally designed home set on Lake Superior in Minnesota’s North Shore region. The property sits on a wild rocky shoreline with private ledge rock and cobblestone areas (shorelines are ever changing) and offers Lake Superior views from the home and outdoor spaces. A lake-facing deck/patio provides an outdoor place to sit (furniture may be seasonal), and the home includes a grill for simple meals outside.

A key on-site feature is the custom Scandinavian sauna, positioned among the surrounding forest and built around a large picture window overlooking the lake. The listing notes moderate lake access, supporting the option to step outside after the sauna for a cold plunge. For indoor downtime, the home provides books, board games and puzzles, and a radio/stereo/Bluetooth speaker.

The interior is organized around an open-concept plan with a sunken living room and a large central dining table. The kitchen includes cookware and place settings (dishes, pots, flatware) and is equipped with a coffee maker, toaster, microwave, and dishwasher. Additional practical amenities include internet access, television, washer/dryer, heater, hot water, and a private entry. Safety items include a fire extinguisher, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector.

Sleeping and bath layouts are clearly defined: the main level has a bedroom with a full bed and an attached bathroom with a shower. Upstairs includes a king bedroom with an attached shower bath, a bedroom with two twin beds plus a twin-over-twin bunk bed, and a separate bedroom with one twin bed. A third upstairs bathroom includes a shower and tub with a separate water closet. Access is via a very steep, unpaved driveway; 4WD/AWD is recommended in winter and encouraged in wet or muddy conditions. Two outward-facing outdoor security cameras monitor the driveway and parking areas.

Haeli House Luxury Home on Lake Superior Come home to Haeli House, a stunning luxury retreat located along the shores of Lake Superior in Hovland, Minnesota. In Icelandic, Haeli means “refuge”—an especially fitting name for a home designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and escape the everyday. Haeli House was architecturally designed to rest among boulders, trees, and a wild rocky shoreline, organically adapting to its surroundings. The architecture draws inspiration from Scandinavian design and the artisan woodworking traditions that have long been part of Minnesota’s North Shore culture, creating a home that is warm, understated, and beautifully connected to its surroundings. At the heart of the property is a custom Scandinavian sauna, tucked among the Boreal forest and designed around a dramatic picture window overlooking Lake Superior. Heat up in the sauna, then step outside for a rejuvenating cold plunge into the Big Lake just steps away. It’s a quintessential North Shore experience—equal parts invigorating and restorative. Haeli House features a beautiful open-concept layout. Relax in the sunken living room, step right out onto the lake-facing deck, or gather for a home-cooked meal at the large central dining table. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, there is plenty of room for the whole family to settle in. Outside, fire up the grill, relax in the Adirondack chairs, and listen to the waves roll against the rocky shoreline. Whether you're spending your days exploring the North Shore or simply staying put and soaking in the scenery, Haeli House makes it easy to embrace the slower pace of life. Important Booking Information — Steep Driveway Haeli House is accessed by a very steep, unpaved driveway. A 4WD or AWD vehicle is highly recommended in winter and strongly encouraged year-round, especially in wet or muddy conditions. Security Cameras There are two outward-facing outdoor security cameras, one at the front porch and one at the garage. Both cameras face the driveway and parking areas and are used for plowing and property security purposes.

Stop by the restaurant at Naniboujou for a full meal or the Chicago Bay Marketplace for a quick bite. Or, head up the shore about twenty minutes to the Grand Portage Reservation where you will find the Grand Portage National Monument and the Grand Portage Lodge and Casino, with a full-service restaurant.
