Treehouse is a local businesses founded and operated right in Ely. We’re committed to providing great service and support at an affordable price.
We promise fair pricing, no yearly contracts, and no cancellation fees.
Unlike others “up to” internet speeds, we guarantee you’ll always receive at least the minimum speed of your service level.
Treehouse uses fixed wireless connections from towers to your house, using directional antennas. This results in actual speeds often 10x faster than DSL, at costs 10-100x cheaper than deploying fiber.
Much of Ely and the surrounding towns and lakes lack proper broadband internet access. Existing installed DSL technology is woefully outdated and oversubscribed, resulting in speeds far lower than advertised. The cost of rural fiber to the home is too high for private investment. Treehouse Broadband provides a better option through Fixed Wireless internet access.
Serving the City of Ely, shores of Shagawa, and surrounding areas with line of sight from a roof, hill, or pine to the Ely Water Tower. Join the waitlist to influence service expansion!
Donald G. Gardner became a summer resident at Ojibway Lake outside of Ely, Minnesota in 1941.
In 1944 Gardner donated a painting by Frederick C. Frieseke titled Breakfast in the Garden to the City of Ely. The painting was hung in the Ely Public Library in 1945 where it was admired for over 40 years.
In 1989, the painting was sold for $510,000.00 to a New York gallery and the City of Ely established the Donald G. Gardner Humanities Trust to enrich the community through arts grants and scholarships.
To date the Trust has awarded more than $625,000 back to the community artists and art organizations to enrich life in Ely.
