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 Existing installed DSL technology is woefully outdated and oversubscribed, resulting in speeds far lower than advertised.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.

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.
The Spiritwood “Forget Me Not” Foundation is Fighting Alzheimer’s Disease Through The Arts as a Non-Profit 501(c)(3)
In 2004 I lost my dad to Alzheimer’s following a very ‘long goodbye.’ We formed the Spiritwood Foundation to help others on a similar journey. Our mission is to raise not only awareness regarding Alzheimer’s Disease, but also critical funds that support community organizations, programs, and facilities working with victims and families dealing with Alzheimer’s and dementia.
The Foundation has many different fund-raising tools. One of them is a musical ‘happening’ we wrote called Remember When – The Songs Of the 60s and 70s. We perform this show in communities around the country involving local performers and musicians. Our Foundation then gifts the profits to the community for its specific Alzheimer’s needs.

The Ely Community Care Team (CCT) was created to identify and address gaps in care in Minnesota’s Northeast Iron Range communities. The partnership of community members and 20 organizations that represent health care, behavioral health, education, social service and non-profit organizations serves the entire population of this remote, rural geographic region with special emphasis on individuals and families in poverty or experiencing mental illness.
The Community Care Team provides collaborative care and targeted care coordination to insure adequate resources are available for physical health, mental health and psychosocial challenges; professionals are trained in recognizing such challenges and are prepared respond to the full spectrum of a person’s needs; and patients have the tools and resources to be a partner in their wellness, treatment and recovery goals. A robust process and outcome evaluation is already showing significant benefits to patients and professionals, in addition to reduced healthcare costs.
“Untouched & Serene”…… These words are often used to describe Northern Minnesota. It’s what draws folks “Up North” and the crew of Low Impact Excavators is serious about keeping it that way. With over 31 years experience with heavy equipment, John Wavrin knows the damage excavating does to the land. He also knows it’s necessary when building a road, installing a septic system or even building a house. That’s why at Low Impact Excavators, John and his crew, leave “small footprints” removing only what is necessary-leaving the job site naturally landscaped, as close to original as possible.
