About the host

Hosted by Leah Ackerman

Host profile image
Grant and Leah here, from Central Iowa. We travel to the North Shore several times every year and recently came upon the opportunity to purchase a lake home in our beloved Two Harbors area. The dream has been to have a homebase here with the potential to move up north full time, or at least spend part of the year as our small businesses in Iowa allow. The location and amenities are to-die-for and we are still pinching ourselves that this is ours. We hope you'll love it just as much, we'd love to invite our guests back year over year! We are new VRBO hosts and welcome your gentle feedback. We chose to open up our home so that it could be enjoyed when we are unable to ourselves. It's a special place that deserves to be full of others who appreciate it.

Grant is an Eagle Scout who loves wildlife, adventure, agate hunting and being off the grid. Meanwhile, Leah is more of a city kid and is more "outside-y" than outdoorsy. This area checks all of the boxes and keeps us both happy! After Leah’s bout with cancer in 2023, we’re more motivated than ever to follow our joy and we hope this place inspires the same for you.

Why they chose this property

Leah doesn't love being too far away from town: shops, restaurants, hustle and bustle, see and be seen. Our lake home sits on the outskirts of town, so less than a 5 minute drive to anything you need in Two Harbors. However, the property feels remote because it's on a wooded and rocky point with hiking, wildlife, and surrounded by beauty and tranquility. Just off Hwy 61 making it easily accessible to the rest of North Shore, snowmobile and snowshoe trails. The neighbors are all very friendly and will chat if stopped, but folks keep to themselves as we all seem to be there for R&R. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with ample parking and lots of amenities; it really is a crowd-pleaser place!

What makes this property unique

We can't think of any other places that we've stayed along the North Shore that offers as much as this one does: DIRECT access to the water, gorgeous views of the lake and Rocky Point, full kitchen with outdoor dining option, a yard, private outdoor rec options such as Pickleball/tennis courts, pool/hot tub, hiking trails, gardens, beach access, fire rings on the shoreline ... the list goes on.
