French River Gooseberry Trailside 4-Plex Suites | Pets | Sauna | Lake View | Fun

Gooseberry Trailside Suites property borders Gooseberry State Park, the most popular state park in Minnesota, with access to the Nordic skiing and mountain biking trail system right out the back door. Guest can also jump onto the Gitchi Gami State trail for those who want to bike or rollerblade on a smooth paved trail with access just across the road.

With the close proximity to Gooseberry Falls and Splitrock Lighthouse, as well as Two Harbors, Duluth and Lutsen, there are year round opportunities to venture out to go hiking, biking, skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, sightseeing, swimming and much more!

Great for groups both large and small, there are 4 - two-bedroom, one bath apartment style suites on the property that can be reserved individually or together. Each has their own private entrance. Please check other units for availability (https://www.vrbo.com/1704269, https://www.vrbo.com/1670628 and https://www.vrbo.com/1704285. The last 2 are pet friendly.

Each suite has its own entrance as well as its own deck with a grill and outdoor dinning table. In addition, we've added a beautiful new fire pit area, for a quiet evening with smore's and quality family time. The sauna just adds to that North Shore experience!

We love all this property has to offer and hope you do too.

Nice getaway!
This was a quiet, very nicely decorated and stocked place! It was easy to get into and furnished nicely. The only problem we had was it had stormed and the internet was down. It is like a fourplex with a fire pit and sauna and nice window views. The caretaker took good care of us. We would come back again!

Perfect location for north shore hikes
This spot was so perfect for access to tettegouche, split rock, and gooseberry! We did lots of hikes then came back and enjoyed fires outside at the fire pit - the wood shed was stocked for us!

This was the ponderous, perfect for me and my 3 kids 8,5 and 2. We will definitely come back next year as we come up this way every year for a long Mother’s Day weekend. The place was clean and well put together the fire place was a hit also facing WiFi and a tv was nice for the day it rained. Loved using the bike trail so close! Definitely recommend.

Accommodating and Understanding
My stay ended up being during a blizzard with a number of challenges. My van got stuck in the driveway. The host was in great communication and very understanding and even was able to connect me with someone who was able to help me unstick my van without an extra cost. I was still able to enjoy a pleasant evening by the fire with my kids and rest a bit during some stressful travel.

Love the accommodations and location!
The French suite was cozy and clean. We enjoyed fires each night with the unlimited supply of wood. The mornings started with a long walk right outside our door with the kids and dog. We got to just a fraction of the miles of groomed trails that border the property. The location is just right for exploring the whole Minnesota north shore of Lake Superior. We’ll definitely try to get back, especially if there’s more snow at Lutsen.

Terrific location. Clean and well managed, but a flyswatter and a better light by the BBQ would make life even more pleasant. Four adults or two adults and two children are a better fit if weather dictates much time inside.

Fall getaway.
Took a 3 night getaway on the north shore to bike, hike, and see the fall colors. Great location with a trail from property to Gooseberry state park. Access to Gitchi-Gami bike tail right across hwy 61. Had a nice bike ride to split rock lighthouse. Had rain, but drove north to Lutsen where it was sunny. Beautiful fall colors on the Lutsen qondola ride. The unit was nice and firepit and sauna a bonus. With all the rain over Gooseberry falls was really flowing and beautiful. Enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Adorable Interior, a few things to be aware of
Adorable cabin & lot. Great location for a Duluth/Gooseberry Falls trip. It wasn't overly clear but this is a single building with 4 rentable units. Not really an issue, just nice to know as the fire pit and sauna are shared. There is no AC for this unit and it's facing south. We were very uncomfortable and did everything we could to lower the temperature. For the overall cost of a 2 day stay, and for how nice the interior is, we didn't even consider there wouldn't be an AC unit- or even a window unit. We are a pretty tolerant family, but this was rough as the temps were in the 90's There were a number of flies in unit as well and a few unwashed dishes in the cabinets- all minor, but given the cost, we were a bit surprised.

Heaven at Gooseberry
The suites are lovely. There are 4 units with two common areas- a generous fire pit, and a Finnish sauna. Kitchen is equipped with basic tools. And easy to clean. Both bedrooms are spacious, lit well -lights are on a dimmer 💜, and have ceiling fans when it's warmer. The hiking trails are friendly. This was a great place for my family to explore Gooseberry Falls and Split Rock Lighthouse. We will stay here again!
