A wonderful trip to visit family

We were in Duluth to visit our son, his wife and their 2 babies. We couldn't have asked for a nicer property to stay at. Brad and Brenda were so accommodating and the house and the location were perfect. The house was so clean, comfy and nicely decorated. On our next trip to Duluth, we hope to stay here again!

Cozy cottage for a family thanksgiving.

Becky and Brad have a fantastic cabin. We were in Duluth visiting family for a very chilly thanksgiving….the house was perfect for our family of three and 70# lab, and also spacious enough to host the full family of 10. The cabin was very clean new appliances, comfortable beds and best of all, in floor heating in the bathroom. 5 out of 5 stars!!

Comfortable, quiet, peaceful + beautiful location!

We had a restful and relaxing weekend stay at Brad and Becky's place. They were gracious hosts, and responded quickly to needs/questions. It's a cozy, welcoming spot and the beds are comfortable, which we really appreciated! We loved the location with trees all around. We'll be back!

Close to UMD

Could be potentially difficult to find but the owners made it very simple - address to use, description of where to park, detailed written directions if that’s your preference. House was cute, clean, and exactly what we expected based on the listing. We had some scheduling changes. Owners were super helpful and easy to work with. As our daughter just started at UMD, we will definitely stay here again. Feels homey and we can bring our little dog.

Great trip to Duluth

We had a wonderful and comfortable stay! We fished Lake Superior and cooked our trout in a well stocked kitchen. We golfed in a tournament the rest of the time and it was a perfect place to wind down and sleep. We saw several deer on the deck. Really enjoyed our stay!

Cute, quiet cottage

This house was in a great location, comfortable, and met our family’s needs. My kids loved the driveway pickleball and the VR headset. The host Brad was wonderful— great communication and gave us recommendations on things to do in the area. Would definitely book here again!

Hosts were welcoming, friendly and attentive to any needs. The guest house is located on the same property as hosts, but still has the feeling of being in your own space. The location and guest house were perfect! Highly recommend and would easily stay here again.

Memories Made

We really enjoyed staying in this Vrbo. It was clean and comfortable. The craftsmanship that went into the renovation was obvious throughout. The added holiday decorations on the exterior set the mood for the season. We bowled on the wii. The younger men enjoyed Mario Cart. This place is in a beautiful setting that makes you feel like you are outside the city, but so close to local restaurants. We were thankful for the opportunity to have a great place to stay while we experienced Bentleyville and the Great Lakes Aquarium.
