North Shore stay

The property is very clean and quaint and the neighborhood was very quiet. The location was great for exploring some of the tourist spots such as Gooseberry Falls, Split Rock Lighthouse, Black Beach, etc. We would stay here again if we come to the area again! The host was also very accessible and accommodating!

Great house with everything we needed. The pack and play, baby gate, and high chair were a very nice touch. Great location in Two Harbors. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Cindy was very communicative and easy to get a hold of. Thank you for the great hospitality, Cindy! We will definitely be back

Great space for families

We enjoyed our stay here and loved all the amenities (laundry, fire pit and chairs, cooking utensils, storage options, etc.). It was clean, just as pictured, and easy to access. It's a great location for seeing Duluth and the North Shore. Our only suggestion is to have more comfortable seating in the main common area. There wasn't enough space for our family of six to be together.

Amazing

We had a pretty big group of 7 adults and one child stay for the weekend. I talked to Cindy in the weeks leading up to our trip and she was always very responsive and kind. The check in process was very smooth and quick and the location of the property was perfect. The house was well equipped with anything you may have needed and was very clean and well taken care of. The trip was everything we were hoping it would be and then some!

Two Harbors Stay

Greasy space! Nicely updated and comfortable beds! Great kitchen! Needed more comfortable seating in the living room. Clean and close to the town and the water! Neighbors played music a bit loud. Other than that, I would recommend to others. Thank you!

Great location - cute neighborhood

You can easily walk to the main street shops and restaurants including the brewery, plus the vintage trains, lighthouse, etc. Walking the other way (a bit further) gets you to the DQ, coffee, more restaurants. House was quite nice and well-equipped. E.g. coffee pods and small snacks, paper towels, fluffy bath towels, dishes. There were some notes about the heat system but we didn't touch it and it was fine the whole time as it was. Quiet neighborhood. Lots of Hallowe'en decorations when we were there which was fun.

This was a beautiful house! The neighbors had a loud party going, and there was a bit of dog hair on the floors and furniture which the babies found whenever they crawled around, but other than that, it was a very pleasant stay! It’s within walking distance to the two harbour light house and beautiful trails, the house has everything you need to make meals, and the bedrooms are comfortable even with a pack-n-play squeezed into a space. The hide-a-bed had quite a few lumps, so I wouldn’t recommend this space for more than 5 adults.

Clean and close quarters.

Very nice renovated older house in a row of narrow houses close together. I didn’t take out the trash as requested since I had seen a skunk coming from the garage into the ally the eve before.l, but it was otherwise spotless. The neighbors also keep late hours so be aware they are outside at night. I confess I didn't know I was supposed to strip my bed, but with a 130$ cleaning fee I thought it would be part of that. I was surprised to find a man mowing and working around the house while I was showering and trying to rest in the afternoon, it was loud over the TV and felt uncomfortable when staying as a single woman. I also was requested to tell them when I was leaving, which is private for safety reasons, as long as it’s by the check out time it should be fine. Nice house overall, but plan to read the rules thoroughly.
