Blue Finn

Perched at the edge of a lake bluff in northern Minnesota, this cabin is a one-bedroom retreat that serves as an invitation to appreciate nature’s splendor. It is wrapped in a sleek black metal exterior, with bursts of brilliant blue accents. Named Blue Finn, these vibrant touches mimic the graceful fins of a fish, infusing playfulness and delight. 

Inside, a haven of coziness unfolds. Thoughtfully placed windows invite streams of natural light, casting a gentle glow on carefully curated spaces. The heart of the cabin is the kitchen, providing hospitality and radiating warmth that invites relaxation and appreciation for life’s simple joys. 

A commitment to energy efficiency underscores every corner, reminding us that a small ecological footprint can be charming and comfortable. The structure’s smart design is a testament to sustainable living. 

The spacious screen porch serves as an extension of the snug living space. A gateway to the outdoors, this grand porch not only provides a panoramic view of the surrounding woods, but also stands as a versatile area for relaxation, contemplation and gathering.
