Fantastic stay
Had the most wonderful time with our family at this lakeside cabin. Greatly enjoyed the lake views and using the kayaks and canoe provided by the host as well as the fire pit in the evening. The house is a convenient drive from several attractions such as Duluth canal park and several parks. It is beautifully decorated, has a cozy atmosphere and a well stocked kitchen. Host was very helpful with directions and promptly addressed any issues.

Best place in every way
We were in the area for a wedding and found this place as an incredible retreat from the hustle/bustle of the events. All the beautiful touches were appreciated. All upscale furniture and the views of the lake were just incredible. Hosts were very helpful with a couple of special requests, couldn't have been more helpful. Wish we had had the time to enjoy the water activities - but we'll be back. We all just loved the space and location.

Lovely House on Pike Lake
Our family of 6, grandparents, children and grandchildren spent a week at this wonderful property. We paddled, fished and enjoyed the loons, ducks and hummingbirds. The property is attractive and worked well for our group. It is well maintained, communication with the owner is easy. The drive into Duluth is very doable.

A terrific time in Duluth MN
It was magic. The house was very ADA for me and my wheelchair. My two young grandsons loved biking on the road in front of the house, fishing in the lake, kayaking, and biking on the Munger trail. We all enjoyed the Munger bike trail and the Duluth train Depot
