We had a group of 8 and were all very comfortable - staying right on the lake allowed for beachfront sunrises and a polar plunge. We loved having the great room with a fireplace and even a sauna. We spread out and there were still spaces we didn’t utilize. Very comfortable. Thank you Kris, et all - we loved our stay and are already planning to book again!!

Was best experience and am recommending to my friends also
The house has all of the required necessities you will need for a stay. It has kitchen ware, gaming room and a full bedding. The house was able to accommodate all of our groups needs. It has a scenic trail that leads to the lake which is a good spot for relaxing and taking pictures. The owners are very helpful and responsive to all of our questions.

Nature's Embrace: Serene Lakefront Paradise
Nestled in a serene location with breathtaking views, this VRBO rental is a haven of tranquility by Lake Superior. The sounds of the waves create an enchanting backdrop, turning us all into eager nature explorers. The sandy beach and rocky shores are a nature enthusiast’s dream. The property, featuring two comfortable houses, caters to both relaxation and entertainment, with a basement filled with games, ping-pong, pool, and classic arcade machines that kept my family endlessly amused. While everything was delightful, a note for future guests: consider bringing your own toiletries and spices, as these personal touches are sparse. A suggestion for the host would be to enhance the welcoming experience with a small basket of essentials and a well-stocked spice rack. Additionally, an upgrade to the Wi-Fi could enhance connectivity for those who wish it. Despite a few spots needing attention, the property’s vastness makes these minor and does not detract from the overall splendid experience. This rental is a true gem for those looking to immerse themselves in nature without forgoing comfort.

Thanksgiving family trip
This is our second time staying at this South Range, WI property and it couldn’t have been nicer for our family. It was difficult to find a large enough place for our family of 15, ranging in age from 5 months to 68 years. We had plenty of private sleeping spaces and large areas to gather together. The kitchen was all in working order for us to prepare our feast. Kris’ hospitality was great - he was available by messaging and by phone to answer questions prior to our arrival. AND, of course, the ever powerful Lake Superior was an easy short walk from the home. We could hear the waves rolling in at night! Thanks for a great together time in your Timber Frame home on the south shore of Lake Superior!

We all had a wonderful time. The house was just perfect for our group of 19. There was plenty of room. The house was very clean and they were plenty of supplies( towels, kitchen utensils and games). We liked the little beach area and the yard was perfect for yard games. We enjoyed our nightly visit of deer. It was about 20 minutes from Dulth so we went into Dulth a couple of days. We went to see Split Rock Lighthouse, Black Beach, Lift Bridge and Amicon park. We loved them all!! Kris was very easy to work with and he answered any questions I had. Thanks for sharing your home with us.❤️

Great stay at the home with plenty of room for our 4 families totalling 14. We were able to swim in the cool lake and then hop in the sauna to warm up. Was also the closest large home we could find in proximity to Duluth, Meyers beach and Bayfield. Our teens also spent the evening in the game room while the whole family used the spacious common areas.

Beautiful and comfortable
My daughter’s wedding was at The Grainery at Lakeview Farm and she wanted a place to stay that was close but even better, big enough for the entire wedding party and parents to stay. This place was perfect! We had 20 people stay but everyone had plenty of room. Some sat around the fire, some played board games, while others just sat at the big table and chatted. Plenty of space to sit down and eat our meals. The beds were surprisingly comfortable too! We all expected the typical cheap mattresses of rental units but the owner obviously appreciates the value of a good night sleep. It made our stay all the more enjoyable. The beach access was fun. It’s not really a swim beach but being familiar with Lake Superior and the unpredictable water levels, plus the northerly location, we weren’t expecting it to be. Just a little way down the road is where the Amnicon River flows into Lake Superior, which is super cool. Kris was a great communicator and handled my questions with patience. We are already planning some way to get a big family reunion up here because we want to come back! Thanks Kris and family for sharing your place with us!
