About this property
The retreat on Sandberg
Clean, comfortable & contemporary full main level area. Whether you just want a place to lay your head & explore Duluth, or you want to lay low and relax, we have you covered. Come enjoy the private country setting just a few minutes off Interstate 35. Have a campfire (unavailable during winter months) roast marshmallows or take a quick 15 minute jaunt down the road to hit the slopes! Ample space to park your ATV's, snowmobiles and campers on a private dead end road & secluded location.

We ask that you respect our property and care for it like you would your own.
