My sisters and I (all in our 50's) took our 1st ever sisters trip to hike parks with waterfalls. We drove 5 to 7 hours to stay at this beautiful property. It was peaceful, comfortable, and the center of our adventures. The host was easy to communicate with and even gave us several local suggestions of activities going on during our time here. Definitely one of the best hosts I have ever had the pleasure of renting from in my travels. Definitely will be recommending her to my friends!

About the host
Hosted by Lindsey
I’m local to Ashland and love this area — from Lake Superior to the small-town charm and outdoor adventures in every season. My family (including our pets!) calls this region home, and we’re excited to share it with visitors.
Hosting is something I genuinely enjoy. I believe the little details make a big difference, and you’ll see that care throughout the home. I keep the space simple, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed with a minimalist style so guests can relax and feel at home.
My goal is for guests to have a place that feels welcoming after a day exploring everything Ashland and Lake Superior have to offer.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect mix of quiet Northwoods charm and walkable access to some of Ashland’s best spots. The home is just minutes from the Lake Superior shoreline, downtown restaurants, local breweries, and coffee shops.
Guests love being able to walk to places like Deep Water Grille and the Alley, explore the historic downtown, or take a short drive to the lakefront, trails, and parks. In the winter, the area becomes a cozy snowy retreat, while summer brings beautiful lake views, sailing, and outdoor adventures.
It’s the kind of neighborhood where you can slow down, enjoy the lake air, and experience the local community, while still being close to everything Ashland has to offer.
What makes this property unique
The Northern Retreat is designed to feel like a true Lake Superior getaway that works for the whole family — including dogs. We intentionally created a space that is both cozy and practical, with thoughtful touches for guests traveling with kids and pets.
Families appreciate the kid-friendly setup and welcoming atmosphere, while dog owners love that their pups are welcome too. We provide simple extras like dog bowls, blankets, and easy access to nearby walking trails and the lakefront.
The home blends Northwoods charm with comfort, making it easy to relax after a day exploring Ashland, visiting the lake, or enjoying local restaurants. Whether you’re here for outdoor adventures or a quiet getaway, it’s meant to feel like your own warm retreat near Lake Superior.
