Peaceful

We love the privacy and lake view are amazing. Love the coziness of the house. The stairs to the beach is a bit scary going down and up from the house. Definitely love that firewood was provided!! Parking space was great! My family would definitely stay here again!

2024 Bucket List Trip

We had such a great time. Northern Lights were out two nights. Our view was Lake Superior. Can’t beat the beauty and majesty of the lake. Rocks were plentiful. The cottage was very comfortable, used the fireplace every night. Well stocked, clean and very comfortable. We will be back.

Superior Captain’s Cottage

The Captain’s Cottage is an amazing place to stay directly on Lake Superior! The cottage itself is very inviting with awesome large decks and all the comforts of home! It is extremely well stocked for any needs that may arise. The expansive, naturally beautiful beach is great for plopping, walking or combing through countless beautiful rocks of all sizes for your personal treasures. We had an outstanding week relaxing with friends and would certainly hope to return!

My mom and I had a wonderful time at this cottage on Lake Superior. I was happy I could bring my dog with us as well. We all enjoyed walking the beach and rock hunting. It was located near our favorite bakery which was a bonus. Overall, it was a fantastic stay and I hope to come back again!
