Our family had a great time staying at your property for the weekend! Conveniently close to Duluth for quick trips in to do sightseeing, shopping, etc. Loved the pool table and gaming system for the cold weekend we had. Wish the downstairs heat would have worked so those staying downstairs had a bit of a chilly stay. All and all a great stay.

Great place!

Great for our group of family members. Big house on a fantastic property. Two details I would have liked to know in advance - it’s a split-level with stairs and on about 2 miles of gravel.

Excellent property and management

We really enjoyed our stay at the relaxing retreat in the woods. The property was perfect and the communication with Heather was exceptional. She even provided recommendations for activities. We really appreciated the extra touch of her adding a Christmas Tree to the property. It was such a pleasant experience.

Great Home in the Woods!

This property was secluded, modern, updated, clean and had many amenities including modern appliances, a pool table, great deck with fire table, where we watched deer feeding in the woods with our morning coffee. We were a group of twelve in Duluth for our youngest daughter's graduation from UMD and we had plenty of room to spread out. It checked all the boxes for us. Our host Heather was very responsive and good with communication. Highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a secluded, modern property.

This was the perfect place to celebrate and spend quality time together. We couldn’t ask for anyplace better and feel blessed to be able to include our 98 yo mother and grandmother who maneuvered the stairs beautifully and participated in all the games.

We had a great time here! We were all pleasantly surprised upon arrival because the place was even nicer than in the pictures. The outdoor space is fantastic, but fair warning, there are a lot of mosquitoes in the summer! The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Would happily stay again!

Women’s weekend

We had a wonderful time with lots of visiting, games and laughs. We are so fortunate to still have our 97 yo mother be an active part of this yearly celebration. It was the perfect setting for us and we thank the hosts for sharing the property with us.

The property was beautiful and perfect for our weekend stay. The fridge in the kitchen didn’t keep food cold so we used the one in the garage instead. Otherwise everything was great.

Away from home

This rental property is bit far away from actual Duluth but having big lot and surrounded by lot is trees was nice. This house has good layout and bedrooms are good size. Overall this was great property and we had great time. Only thing was concerning was there was pet hair all over floor, carpet, and bedroom blanket when we arrived.
