About

Located within Lake Vermilion-Soudan Underground Mine State Park in northeastern Minnesota's St. Louis County, these eight camper cabins offer year-round lodging near the historic Soudan Underground Mine and five miles of Lake Vermilion shoreline. The cabins honor the area's Indigenous history, with names using Ojibwe words for the four seasons and four cardinal directions. Each 12-by-16-foot cabin features rustic tamarack interiors with wooden bunkbeds and mattresses, electric heat, electricity, WiFi, and a screened porch. The cabins have no indoor plumbing but share a heated restroom and shower building that is available year-round. Each cabin includes an outdoor food prep counter, fire ring with grate for cooking, and picnic table. Indoor cooking is limited to crockpots and coffee makers. Two of the eight cabins are wheelchair accessible with accessible showers and flush toilets nearby. The park encompasses nearly 3,000 acres and offers access to underground mine tours, hiking through old growth pine forest, and Lake Vermilion's renowned fishing. Reservations can be made up to 120 days in advance through the Minnesota DNR reservation system.
