Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Very overgrown, unkept property. Weeds growing free throughout the yard. No grill. If the property was maintained I would give 4 stars. The host was very nice and willing to communicate. Private location was a plus for the pets.
We stayed here for two days during the height of leaf season while visiting our daughter in college. The house was clean, neat, well put-together, and perfect for me, my wife, our two kids, and my parents. It's situated very conveniently between Two Harbors and Duluth, giving us access to all the North Shore had to offer plus some nice country solitude. We'll definitely see if this place is available next time we head up toward Duluth!
