About this property

Historic Lake Superior Shoreline Home

Live in this beautiful North Shore classic while enjoying the Holidays with family and friends. Get away to the winter wonderland or bask in the cool breezes of summertime fun at the big lake! This incomparable shoreline has walkable ledgerock overlooks and a rocky (with agates) beach grotto. There is even a unique series of stones for wading out into the lake on hot summer days.

The home is fully remodeled with all the modern amenities and a centralized north shore location (e.g. easy access to Duluth, Spirit Mountain, Two Harbors, snowmobile trails, Lutsen and Grand Marais).

Beds for 7 guests. The couch may accommodate an 8th. There is a full sized mattress and accoutrement in our “Pilot Knob” for an eighth (young adult or an adventurous couple of “kids”). Another spot for a 9th and 10th or so, could hold an air bed or a few sleeping bags (none of which are provided) on the floor. If you want to cram ‘em in, ya can.

If you need more housing for your group, we have a really nice, new log home. It’s just up the hill, a mile or so away, and comfortably sleeps 6.

NOTE: Lake County requires that we rent this home for 30 days or more at a time. If you were hoping to rent for shorter period of time, get in touch with us as we may be able to coordinate some pricing arrangement that makes 30 days make sense to your party. In general, we have to set terms here on VRBO but they are all negotiable.
We are receiving requests for 30+ day rentals of this home. If you are considering some time here in 2021, be sure to move on it quickly. At 30+ days per rental, there are very limited rental availabilities.
