Cute and Small, but very Cozy

Went here to see the Stars for my girlfriends birthday. We arrived on Friday, and Friday night we went down by the boat launch to see stars, but the light over there made it more difficult. So the next morning, after going out on the town, I messaged the owner back about the stay, and posed a question to the owner and got a response back in a matter of minutes about a better location. For the building, its a small little apartment styled home, that has a master bedroom, a Small two bedroom bedroom, and a large bathroom. The kitchen And living room are connected, giving it a nice open feel.

Ely Wedding Weekend

My wife and I rented this property to attend the wedding of my niece who lives in Ely. The host provided excellent communications, before, during, and after our stay. The property was exactly as portrayed in the listing. The property was clean, quiet, and was within walking distances of restaurants, shops, and church.

Definitely the ❤️ of Ely!

We LOVED this rental! We came from 4 days on a houseboat, so this was luxurious in comparison. Great location- we could walk to shops & restaurants easily. It was very helpful that the laundry was right outside our unit. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and everything was spotlessly clean. The check in process was super easy and the host communicated very thoroughly. We would definitely recommend this to family & friends, and would stay here again.

Excellent location just off the main street

We enjoyed our 2 days and 3 nights in Ely. We found unit was as advertised in the listing. Check-in was easy using the code for the lockbox. Communication with the owner and the property manager both before and during our stay via VRBO app was easy and punctual. I appreciated the recommendations to some local canoe outfitters - we ended up using Spirit of the Wilderness and were very happy with them. Was very nice to have a reserved parking space behind the unit - especially when we had our canoe atop the car as it was out of view of the main street and passers-by and I felt less subject to being stolen (prob not a problem in Ely but was a concern of mine nevertheless). We *really* appreciated the washer/dryer as it allowed us to bring fewer clothes than we otherwise would. It was not clear to us if the washer/dryer (not in the unit itself but in an adjacent room just outside the entry door) was shared with the other nearby units (that should be clarified in the listing) but this turned out to not be a problem during our stay - I think we were the only users of it during our time there. Visitors to the unit should be aware that there are approx 20 steps to climb to get to the unit - not a problem for us but perhaps would be for others. Should we ever return to Ely we will likely stay in this unit again if it is available.

Winter Stay in Ely

My friend and I had a short stay in Ely to do some winter hiking and to experience the town of Ely. This loft was a great place to stay and was centrally located. Beds were comfortable and property management was very responsive.

Great Location

Great location for restaurants and shopping. Blocks from bike route. The family staying below us was really loud so if looking for quiet this may not be your best bet. But if you are on the go and just need a "homebase" while in Ely it's perfect!

Fall Fishing Trip

Have stayed at this property a couple times and it meets expectations everytime. Nice central location in town so it is easy to grab a bite of dinner after a long day of fishing and provides a l central point for a number of good fishing lakes in the area that you can hit on different days

Home away from home

My friends and I enjoyed our stay at this home away from home conveniently located in downtown Ely, yet quiet. Full kitchen where we made breakfast and lunch, quiet rooms to sleep and big bathroom. We found pillows to hard and host quickly replied there were extras that were softer. They have thought of everything. We would definately stay here again next time we visit Ely.

This was a great property in a great location for restaurants etc. Clean and roomy and as advertised. The only drawback was the unloading before parking then hauling it up the stairs as we had a lot of stuff (2 coolers plus regular bags), but this is unlikely to be a factor for most.

A good budget option

This is a good budget option for many travelers. The beds are very comfortable and a variety of pillows, well-appointed kitchen, and clean bathroom. It is conveniently located in town. There are some details that make this less than an ideal fit for some travelers. It is up 1 ½ flights of stairs and the kitchen is noticeably not level. Not a good fit for anyone with mobility issues. I just happened to sprain my ankle the day before, so I noticed more than I usually would. There’s a strong Febreeze-type smell. Not sure if it’s covering another smell or if the caretaker just likes it. Not great for travelers with asthma or fragrance sensitivity. Some unfinished details make this not a good fit for families with young children. There are some unfinished edges to the floors and an electrical outlet that isn’t covered. Some electrical covers don’t cover the entire hole. The living room window has 1 out of 3 screens in place. The convenience of being in town is offset by the inconvenience of noise. Not a deal breaker, but lots of traffic and a loud motorcycle seems to live next door or nearby. Overall, an average or slightly above average experience. This would be just fine for people without the above-mentioned issues.
