Needed a place to stay while we worked in town. This was the perfect spot, easy check in, quiet and had all of the cozy amenities as our own home. We really appreciated how clean everything was and the handy book of local places! Very close to everything and was an easy drive to several “hot” spots.

This is, without exception, the best stay I have ever had here in Duluth. I come every summer and can highly recommend this property. The owners have taken great care to ensure your every need is met, so you can relax and enjoy your vacation. The place is spotless, has a wonderful outside patio area, and is welcoming for pets. It’s accessible to everything and away from the fray of traffic and hyper tourists. Don’t hesitate if you are comparing places (although I hate to give away my secret now)! Thank you so much. Can’t wait to see you next year. :)
