We were 2 couples staying for 2 nights while exploring Ely and we wished we could’ve stayed longer ! We had plenty of room to spread out, the full kitchen was much appreciated and we loved using the fire pit. Next time we’ll bring suits and try the sauna!

Kelly and your team - we had a great time at Sandy Point. The peninsula felt like a little oasis. A hidden gem. It was delightful to wake up to beautiful sunrises across Lake Shagawa. It was easy to access the unit and its proximity to Ely town, trails was excellent. We found the unit very clean. Appreciated the table tennis and playing pool when the weather outside wasn’t great. We think we will very likely be paying it another visit! Thank you, Kelly for being very responsive in your communication.

Can’t say enough about Kelly’s place. The location is absolutely spectacular and the house is great. It has everything you could want, including a dock and kayaks. It’s also a great place to launch bike rides into the lake country, if that’s your thing. Highly recommended stay!
