Cozy woods getaway

This is our 4th visit to Singing Waters and it never disappoints. We enjoyed exploring the river and even taking a dip! We loved being cozy on the screened in porch while drinking coffee in the mornings. The wooded trails were not groomed for walking as many trees had fallen during winter so that was a bummer, but the hosts informed us of that in a welcome binder.

Singing Waters Getaway

Singing Waters property offered a wonderful getaway with walking trails., waterfalls and many outside amenties. This is a very unique property that I can't recommend enough. Also, a great location between Duluth and Two Harbors. We enjoyed the artwork and were very comfortable here in the house. We can't wait to go back!

Cute cabin

Cabin was very cute. Waterfall is beautiful. Advertising a swimming hole was a bit misleading. We loved the screened in porch. Great location between Two Harbors and Duluth.

Great place to reconnect with nature!

We rented this location for a girl's trip. There were 5 of us in total. The sleeping arrangements were very cozy and comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need as was the bathroom. They even had bathroom items available to us in case we forgot something! So many fun activities to keep you outdoors; walking trails, the outdoor cabana, the river, scavenger hunts, bean bags, a bonfire pit and so much more. I could write a novel on all the things I loved about this place. The decorating is so much fun, you will find something new that you hadn't seen before every time you explore. I can't recommend this place enough. See you again next year!

So lovely

We had an amazing time here. Our kids didn't even want to leave to explore the north shore or go out to eat; they just wanted to stay at Singing Waters. Can't blame them.

Wonderful fall getaway

We had a lovely time staying at Singing Waters for our first trip to the North Shore area. The house was very clean and comfortable. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 and lots for our kids (ages 7-16) to explore. They loved wandering through the woods on the scavenger hunt! We also enjoyed the fire pit for s'mores on a cool fall night. Stacey and Shellie were great with communication. We will definitely stay here again!

A Whimsical Gem

Our family had such fun staying at Singing Waters and exploring their beautiful outdoor surroundings. The Scavenger Hunt for the kids was a hit! We enjoyed the thoughtful details, like a plate of cookies upon check-in and cozy blankets and comfortable chairs at the firepit. There are so many enjoyable details but I don't want to ruin the fun of surprise!

Singing Waters Stay

Our family had an amazing experience and would highly recommend this tucked away gem. The location was perfect in between Duluth and Two Harbors. Within an hour of arriving my kids asked if we could become back again. It is definitely a place I plan to return.

Amazing getaway for the whole family!

Singing Waters had something for everyone in our family! Our four kids (ages 4-13) enjoyed the trails, the scavenger hunt, and especially loved the swimming hole! We kept busy during the day touring the North Shore, but we were all excited to go back to Singing Waters to explore and relax! This was the perfect getaway for our family! Stacey and Shellie did an amazing job hosting!

Perfect home base for a running and sightseeing vacation!

Singing Waters is delightful. It is full of art and whimsy and still has all the amenities. The property is packed with fun and challenging activities for all ages and the house is excellent for groups of 4-6. There's space to congregate, but also to be alone if that's your thing. It's close enough to Duluth, Two Harbors and the North Shore that sightseeing and shopping are convenient. The owners are warm, responsive, helpful and interesting to talk to. I've rented a variety of properties and this is the best of the lot!

Serene family getaway

We had an amazing visit to Singing waters! In most weekends, we would be treated to a wonderful home with so many kid-friendly amenities. With a perfect weather weekend like we were treated to, we were able to enjoy the scavenger hunt (so amazing), swimming hole and personal waterfall, fire pit, outdoor games and so much more! If only we had more than a weekend - which means we will definitely be coming back!

Magical location

What a gem! Immaculately clean with everything you need to feel cozy and comfortable. Our family of 5 (ages 13, 9, and 7) never ran out of things to see or do in the cabin or outside. Delightful hidden treasures surprised us around every corner. The highlight for us was the property itself. The beautiful woods and waterfall were breathtaking. Previous reviews are spot on when they describe this location as magical!

Great experience with nature!

We loved Singing Waters guest home. It was clean and comfortable and the owners were very accommodating. We loved drinking our coffee in the screened-porch each morning, and listening to nature. Exploring the well-marked trails and beautiful waterfall was also a favorite! In the evenings, we enjoyed playing beanbags and the campfire! We would highly recommend Singing Waters guest house! It is a get-a-way packed full of fun and adventure for all ages!

Enchanting!

We had such a wonderful stay at Singing Waters. The guest house is very comfortable and full of whimsical details. Our kids (ages 11 & 5) loved the scavenger hunt, which involved hunting for awesome treasures on the hiking trails throughout the property. So many thoughtful details - this VRBO really goes above and beyond. The river is gorgeous and so is the pond adjacent to the guest house. We will definitely be coming back!!!

Beautiful retreat near the North Shore!

This place made for a magical, relaxing vacation for my family. The location is ideal... secluded, yet close to Duluth and Two Harbors. The accommodations are comfortable, clean and well appointed. The property is beautiful and offers so many things to do (hiking in the woods, exploring along the river, hammocks, yard games, fire pit). My two small children were both disappointed when our time ended and are asking when we can visit Singing Waters again. We will be back!

What makes this property unique

The property is located on the best section of the Sucker River that has its own private swimming hole and waterfalls. The constant sound of the river is calming and peaceful. A very short hike (300 feet) downstream brings you to over 150 acres of state land and hiking.
