About this property

Lake Superior Log Home Retreat

Welcome to our new log home / cabin (1700sf 1-3 bed 2 bath) on a ridge near Lake Superior with easy access to Duluth, Two Harbors and beyond. Great “base camp” for your time exploring the North Shore or just relaxing with family and friends in your place on private acreage.

IMPORTANT NOTE: To keep rates manageable, the rate here is for the house with just the King bedroom. If you want one or both of the other queen bedrooms (each $50/night), just message us once you're booked and we can easily add them.

Beautiful Cabin
We had a very peaceful stay! The cabin is beautifully done with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially enjoyed the gorgeous kitchen and comfortable beds. Very close to Gooseberry Falls, Iona's Beach, Tettegouche State Park, Betty's pies and Duluth along with many other sites and restaurants to explore. Host Chad was very helpful.

Long weekend getaway
First of all I want to say shame on me and the 2 other couples for not reading the small print. (Not sure but think it was changed after we booked). But all three couples missed that when you book you are only booking the king size bed room which is in the basement and you have to pay more to book the 2 queen size bedrooms which is on the main floor. They stated it was it was not fair to them. Then for it being clean. Yes for the most part it was clean except the windows you look out from the loft were so dirty. And then when we wanted to use the bowls and pans we had to clean them before we used them and believe we are not picky people. (All couples by the way are in our 60s and 70s). Don’t plan on doing any yard games. The weeds were right up to the cabin. But the worse thing was is this cabin had water damage in front of both doors to the point of were when you stepped inside the door the floor went down. The sub floor was so rotten to the point of when the guys stepped on it they thought they were going to go threw the floor. I have pictures but not sure how to put them on here. Hopefully things change because it is a nice location. Oh by the way it says it has a hair dryer but we could not find any so make sure to bring your own.

Nice house among the trees
This was a very nice three bedroom home (we used 2 of the bedrooms) and 2 baths. During the day you could hear the cars on the highway but at night it was very peaceful. It was lovely sitting on the deck and turning the fire on. Would stay there again.

Great cabin in the woods
My family and I stayed here for our son’s wedding. The home was very clean, plenty of bedding and towels. Chad, the host was very good with communication. If you love to be In a secluded area, but close to all the activities this is the place to be!

Duluth vacation
We truly enjoyed our stay! The cabin was private and very clean. It was right in the middle of our site seeing adventure. The only disappointing point was the extra fee for the extra bedrooms. If you have children it would be wise to bring an air mattress or two to set up in the loft which is wide open space.

A Wonderful Stay
Our family (two adults and two kids ages 5 and 2) had a wonderful stay! Check-in/check-out were a breeze thanks to the host's great communication. Everything in the cabin was in great shape and exactly as listed (if not better than the pictures!). We had a fantastic 5 days. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay. Loved the set up and cozy atmosphere. The deer and eagles were fun to watch. The grandchildren loved Gooseberry Falls and the Split Rock Lighthouse. We even had a movie night and a game night too. The kitchen is awesome and had everything we needed. Wonderful home for a vacation
