Nestled along Minnesota's stunning North Shore, the Gooseberry Falls area is a nature lover's paradise. When you stay at Gooseberry Trails Suites you can embark on a ski adventure directly on the scenic trails that wind through Gooseberry Falls State Park, known for its breathtaking waterfalls, rugged cliffs, and lush forests. A short stroll brings you to the pristine shores of Lake Superior, where you can enjoy easy beach access and soak in the beauty of the largest Great Lake.
Escape to the Gooseberry Trailside Suites, a four-plex with four individual two-bedroom, one-bath apartments perfectly positioned for an unforgettable North Shore getaway. The French is the upper unit on the Right side of the building facing the Lake. This quaint apartment is located next to great trails, multiple rivers, the majestic shores of Lake Superior, and of course Gooseberry Falls, this retreat offers incredible access to outdoor adventures. You can hike or ski directly from the property. Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with a dining room table, ideal for home-cooked meals, and a cozy living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace to warm up after a day of exploration. Step outside to enjoy a shared fire pit for stargazing or unwind in the 10-person sauna, making this the ultimate haven for relaxation and recreation.

Please note when you book this unit you are only booking the one unit not the entire four-plex, please reach out to us if you would like to reserve more than one unit. Guests will have shared access to the sauna and fire pit.

We chose this property for a couple of reasons — primarily, the proximity to a number of North Shore hikes. We loved being so close to various parks, but having a quiet place with great amenities. Everything was exactly as it was described, and it was a great choice for us!

John, thank you for your feedback. We're glad your overall stay good. We apologize for the cleanliness issues and will address these areas to ensure a more polished experience for future guests. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
I don't know if I missed that the property was a 4 plex? and that the unit we were getting was on the upper level. This was only a problem because my husband has walking troubles and stairs are a problem, he really couldn't help me carry anything up the stairs. Great location, nice having the little trail to Gooseberry Falls State Park right there, we took that as a little walk each morning. Beautiful place to stay, beds were comfortable. The signage was a little difficult to see, I only saw it after we passed our turn the first time. Firepit was welcoming and the deck was a lovely way to enjoy the view. Wish we could have stayed longer but understandably the property was booked up. I would highly recommend

Thank you for the five-star review. Sorry the upper-level unit and stairs were a challenge — we'll make the unit level clearer in the listing. Glad you enjoyed the location, the trail to Gooseberry Falls, comfortable beds, the firepit, and the deck view. We’ll work on improving signage visibility. Hope to host you again.
Very convenient to Gooseberry Falls hiking. Loved Sauna at the end of the day.
