Holiday Gift Guide – Cabin

Inside around the fire while snow falls, watching the sunrise from the porch with a cup of coffee, or playing games around the table, there's something special about being at the cabin. If your holiday list includes someone who loves to escape to a retreat in the woods or on the water, I've assembled over 20 unique ideas perfect for these moments - both indoors and out. From beverages and classic gear to decor and tools. With ideas starting at just $30, you're sure to find something for the cabin dweller on your holiday list.


Cornhole America Whitetail Buck Cornhole Bag Set ($30) Made to current ACL/ACO and MCL bag standards featuring a CNC sewn pattern with industrial stitching and thread for durability. The bag measures 6 inches square with minimal rounded corners and is filled with a plastic resin fill giving the bag a final weight of 15.75 ounces. 


FIlson Fish Print Stoneware Mug ($40) This 12-oz. mug is made in Ohio from clay that’s been kiln-fired at extremely high temperatures. The baked-on enamel glaze is safe for both the microwave and dishwasher. Features custom trout and salmon graphics.


Frost River Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness Cribbage Board ($40) These Minnesota-made boards are surprisingly detailed, and they work great to play the game. The rubber feet grip tabletops so if the game gets a little rowdy, you can count on the board to stay in its place, there's even a "skunk" line. Laser engraved in Minnesota on real wood—there's a bracket cut in the back to hang it on the wall, for good reason, these boards are beautiful!


The Original Stormy Kromer® Cap ($48) There's a reason this cap is legendary. The wool blend resists the elements and the 100% cotton flannel lining helps keep you warm all winter. The ingenious pull-down earband provides comfort and flexibility. The six-panel construction keeps the cap on your head, where it belongs. And our wide range of sizes guarantees a great fit. No wonder it's lasted more than a century.

Walleye Run Whiskey (Starting at $50) Crafted with the utmost care and respect for tradition, Walleye Run is a testament to the rich heritage of the midwestern outdoors. Each sip reveals a harmony of flavors that only time can nurture. This whiskey invites you to linger in the moment, to escape the grind, to savor the memories on shimmering lakes, in warm cabins, around crackling campfires, or beneath the canopy of age-old forests. Walleye Run — far from ordinary. 


Feuerhand Baby Special 276 Hurricane Lantern ($50) The Feuerhand Baby Special 276 is made of galvanized steel and is particularly resistant to corrosion. These colorful hurricane lanterns create a cozy atmosphere in the yard or on the back porch. The heat-resistant, break-resistant Schott Suprax glass protects the flame from wind and weather. Well equipped for outdoor use, providing a warm pleasant light for up to 20 hours. Every cabin should have one.


Mark Behmer "Monarch of the Woods" Print ($55) 12" x 9" signed, limited-edition prints on bright fine art paper using Giclee ink, technology printed on heavyweight archival cold press. The perfect addition to any cozy cabin setting.


Duluth Trading Co. Firehose Log Carrier ($75) You may not care about a little wood debris in the cabin, but chances are, someone does. The Duluth Fire Hose "Less Mess" Log Carrier maintains the peace: the 25"W x 40½"L dimensions mean bigger logs fit inside, and the bark or dirt that sloughs off in transit stays contained – instead of ending up on the floor.

Alder Canoe Axe ($100) The Canoe Axe is purpose tool in the backcountry when clearing a way or keeping a trail or bank access open. The Canoe Axe is delivered with a leather sheath which is made in Lithuania and available with personalized engraving for just $10 extra.


Byer of Maine Pangea Butterfly Chair ($120) While the original Butterfly Chair was designed in the late 30's, the Byer version is both a nod to the past and a look forward. They have painstakingly designed the details of the cover to withstand years of use and reinforced all the stress points. The frame has been carefully altered to enhance the comfort and durability. The Butterfly Chair is perfectly at home around any campfire. Or, for even more relaxed fitting check it out in the Glider.


L.L.Bean Flannel Lined Camp Sleeping Bag, 40° ($130) The legendary L.L. Bean camp bag features super-rugged shell fabric, recycled high-lofting insulation for warmth, and amazingly soft flannel lining. Durable and ultra-cozy, these camp sleeping bags have been favorites for years. A great choice for cabin guests and family camp outs, it packs easily into a monogrammable stuff sack. The premium cotton flannel lining is as cozy as your favorite flannel shirt and the recycled high-loft polyester insulation won't clump or shift, even after repeated washings. And a new wide size means everyone can sleep in a Camp Bag.


Orvis Camp Cocktails Coffee Table Book ($150) Learn how to whip up great drinks in the great outdoors with the recipe book Camp Cocktails by Emily Vikre.

The Straits Chef Knife is the perfect kitchen companion, ensuring efficiency and comfort in every slice.

Sanborn Canoe Mufferaw Canoe Paddle ($255) The Mufferaw is so-named from Big Joe Mufferaw. The simplest description of Big Joe is that he is the Canadian version of Paul Bunyan. Imagine flannels, sweat-on-the-brow hard work, a majestic beard and generally lumberjack awesomeness – and you’ll get the idea behind the Mufferaw paddle. Painted on the Voyageur Heritage Paddle. Perfect for lazy turns around the lake or for gracing the wall of your cabin. Each is a laminated combination of Red Alder, Basswood, and Black Walnut.

Filson Mackinaw Wool Cruiser Jacket ($550) - Originally patented in 1914 as the Wool Cruising Shirt, C.C. Filson’s Cruiser was designed for foresters and timber cruisers in the rain-soaked Pacific Northwest forests. The Cruiser has become one of the most-imitated jackets on the market. Since its versatile performance was also appreciated by hunters, Filson also introduced a red & black plaid version, which was one of the earliest high-visibility camouflage patterns. Buy this and your outdoor cred increases exponentially just for wearing it. An absolute classic.
