It was easy to come and go, and it was easy to get to the main sites in Duluth. The rooms were spacious, and the beds were comfortable. We loved the attention to detail with the decorating. It was nice having two bathrooms for our group.

Duluth Hiking Trip
We had a great time visiting Duluth! The house was a relaxing place to come back to, from a fire outside and driveway basketball to relaxing in the sauna, it was a perfect home base after hiking and exploring the Duluth area.

Bigger and better than expected
Very nice place to stay. Clean and had plenty of room for family of 4. Had all the things needed for a 5 day stay. Sauna was nice but just used once. Would rent again for sure. Just not sure it had air conditioning even though the listing said it did. Couldn’t find any vents and it was a bit warmer than we wanted.

If I could give six stars, I would. Loved the setting, property was well-maintained, decor was wonderful and warm. Barely heard the people upstairs (like maybe 5 footsteps one night). Close to everything. Highly recommend!

As Comfortable As Home
This property couldn't have been better suited to our family's needs. As business owners we don't get a lot of downtime or many opportunities to get away. We weren't looking to be touristy. We wanted a space where we could just hang out together, play games and relax. The aesthetic was clean and cozy with clever, intentional touches. The furniture and beds were comfortable, and everything was in good working order. We had a small issue with an electrical breaker, but management was quick to respond and resolve the issue. We would definitely stay again. It felt like home away from home.
