The Duluth Cottage was a great choice for our 3 generation family reunion. Plenty of room for the kids to run and space for family meals. Kitchen had everything you needed, very well stocked. Beds were comfy too. Location was great, close to Duluth but on a dirt road in the country. Really felt like you were far away from the city. Morgan was great with communication. Would stay again at the Duluth Cottage.

The property was excellent and just as described. The kitchen had everything we needed. The grandkids had a great time hanging out in the sauna. The fire pit was perfect to sit around for evening fires and they provided plenty of fire wood. We brought our own portable volleyball net and the family had a great time playing volleyball. The host was very prompt in answering any questions. We really liked how quite the location was and being on the north end of Duluth was great as it was quick 35 min drive to Gooseberry Falls. All the kids and grandkids enjoyed exploring the falls and we a great family weekend on the property!!
