About this property

Condo steps away from Lake Superior/Canal Park

Incredible views of Lake Superior, Canal Park, and the Aerial Lift Bridge. 4 bedroom/3 bath, fully furnished penthouse with parking ramp directly across the street. The Borealis House (formerly known as Blacklist Suites) is located on Superior St. in Downtown Duluth with a pedestrian bridge path and garden directly behind the building connecting you to Canal Park and the Duluth Lake Walk.

This open and accommodating penthouse with a rooftop deck and four season room overlooks Lake Superior and Canal Park. The roof top deck provides a great space to enjoy a sunny Duluth day and your favorite beverage. The condo has been completely redone (2019) and all furnishings and appliances are brand new. This unit is 100% dedicated to VRBO stays so you never have the feel that you're staying in someone else's home. This is a top floor unit and has a private and secure elevator to the suite. Two rooms have King beds, one room has a queen bed, and one bedroom has a twin bed and full bed. (No bunks!)
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great location/host

We had a great stay at this property - check-in process was straightforward, and the interior was true to the photos. There was plenty of space to host the whole family. We loved our private patio on top with a great view of the lake, the great bakery on the first floor (and coffee shop across the street), and the property’s proximity to Canal Park.

We were in town for our daughter’s wedding and wanted a place that multiple family members could stay together and where we could host a dinner for our soon to be son in law and his family. This place checked all those boxes and exceeded our expectations. Absolutely stunning place, clean and very spacious. The host was very responsive to messages as well. Definitely will be back for future family events.

Overall a really good experience! Unexpected AC issue however the property manager was very responsive. Space was very accommodating to the 8 of us and gave easy access to the pier and social locations around town. I would recommend to others.

Great family holiday

We spent Christmas at this Condo and had a great holiday. The condo has charming bedrooms and great spaces for spending time together. The kitchen has everything needed to prepare meals. We loved the sunroom at the top of the stairs with an amazing view of the city and Lake Superior! The host had great communication throughout, and check in/out was a breeze. Our visit to this condo will be a great family memory!

Central location and beautiful property

This property is absolutely beautiful. The communication was detailed and timely including an after hour check in process and parking instructions. The location allowed us to walk to some delicious restaurants and bars as well as had amazing views while spending time in the property. It was well stocked with dishes and the coffee/tea bar had a lot of variety. The property pictures represented the atmosphere and the furniture was in great condition and comfortable. A wonderful stay and we have all saved this location for future trips to the area.

Housing fantastic, parking not so much

We absolutely loved the facility. They thought of everything that you might need. The parking was a little sketchy as one of our people were handicapped. Also unloading our belongings was very creative.

As advertised

Everything was exactly how we imagined it to be, and exceeded expectations. Had a group in town for a long weekend, and would stay here again. It’s close to everything, and as a downtown area it can also attract some “strange” people to the area. Overall a great experience.

About the host

Hosted by Alicia Lillegard

Host profile image
I spent my summers for over 20 years working at my grandfather's small family vacation resort in Northern Minnesota, and now manage rental properties in the Duluth/Superior area. (You can bet I won't ever leave a mess for housekeeping where I travel!) Our Aurora House Condo is special because it belongs to our family! The rest of the year I am a wife, mom, handy-woman, and private math tutor. My hobbies include juggling, waterskiing, and DIY home-improvement projects.

What makes this property unique

The Borealis House has a spacious interior, unique bird's eye view of the Duluth and Lake Superior, hotel quality bedding, JW Marriot beds, and has a location that can't be beat. The condo is located steps away from Lake Superior, Canal Park, Fitgers Brew House, the DECC/Amsoil Arena, Bayfront Park, Blacklist Brewery, Fond-du-Luth Casino, The Greysolon Ballroom, and various restaurants. <-- All of that within 1.0 miles from our front door.
