About this property

The Fitzgerald Manor BnB is Your Northwoods Destination !

Fitzgerald Manor is a spacious bed & breakfast nestled in the middle of 39 acres, five miles up from the northern shores of Lake Superior.

Constructed from 2002-2004 The Manor was designed by Becky & Mark to be a beautiful gathering place to spread out and enjoy each other’s company.

Fitzgerald Manor is a true BnB, we live on site, residing on the 3rd floor. After breakfast there is a small amount of interaction. We are available as little or as much as you need us to be. As far as guests sounds filtering up to the 3rd floor, the quality construction of The Manor keeps it to a minimum.

With 10,000 square feet the Manor features seven large private bedrooms each with their own private bath. All have wonderful king size beds & ceiling fans. Five guest rooms have a gas fireplace and their bathroom has a two person whirlpool tub and walk in shower. Two guest rooms have a full bathroom with combination tub/shower.

The gourmet kitchen is available for your use with two prep islands, six burner double oven stove and two full size refrigerators. There is plenty of space to enjoy including a sitting room, great room, sun room, dining room and a huge library with books, games, DVD movies, and a karaoke machine to add to the fun.

The Manor has two attached porches. The south east porch is open and covered to enjoy the views of the meadow, the grazing deer or the summer fire flies. The south west porch is open for that barbeque feast and visiting around the picnic table.

Large groups are welcome with 6 additional twin size beds that can be set up in either the bedrooms or the student study room. All of the sleeping areas are located on the 2nd floor.

There is ample parking on blacktop.

Like all true BnB’s we offer a wonderful homemade hot breakfast each morning and typically serve at 9am.

The manor’s third floor is constructed to block noise so guest activities are not noticed.

Fantastic Getaway!!
All of our family enjoyed our stay at the Fitzgerald! Our hosts were wonderful as well. It's difficult to find a place that could accommodate our large group and this fit the bill. The breakfasts provided were wonderful as well! We hope to come again another time. Such a beautiful area, too.

Incredible stay!
We loved our stay at the Manor. Mark and Becky are fantastic hosts. We stayed over a weekend for my husband’s birthday with a bunch of our friends and had a great time. We played yard games and volleyball, had a fire, and at night we sang karaoke and watched movies in the theater. The breakfasts were delicious and had great portions, and the ice cream social with homemade ice cream and waffle cones was out of this world. Not a soul left this weekend hungry. We highly recommend a stay at the Manor!

Fitzgerald Manor “The Castle House”
A true family destination for our family reunion. This is a unique property that provides so much more than any other place we’ve stayed. Mark cooked delicious breakfasts each day at a time of our choosing, respected our privacy, had fresh coffee ready early each morning, had 6 kinds of fresh baked cookies available, a well equipped play room, library, bedrooms & bathrooms. The property has hiking trails & a large deck, fire pit & games. We loved the hospitality & peaceful location so close to Two Harbors, Gooseberry & Split Rock state parks. Can’t say enough about this property & host!!

Lovely Family Trip
Had a lovely surprise getaway with family and friends at the Fitzgerald Manor, our 2nd time staying there. The spacious room, abundant space for hanging out, and the basement theater room & game room make for a wonderful place to get everyone together. Breakfast provided was delicious and the hosts were very communicative and accommodating. Definitely planning to return.

Wonderful Place!
We had a wonderful family reunion /celebration of life for my husband. The manor was so kid friendly! We had 6 children from ages 2-10. There was a play room that was in view of the living room so we could chat and still watch the littles! There was lots to do just at the manor between the games room downstairs, the theater with a popcorn machine, TVs in every room! The rooms were gorgeous with an amazing bathroom for each one. Becky and Mark were lovely hosts and we never felt we were bothering them with our questions. The breakfasts were delicious! I highly recommend this B&B. Oh and Stella their pooch was a huge hit! Thank you so much for making this so memorable!

Northwoods Getaway with Friends
We enjoyed several northshore activities close to the Two Harbors area including hiking, biking, golf, state parks, and local breweries, as well as the VRBO property firepit and outdoor deck. The host couple were both very friendly and accomodating of our party's request to cook some meals together. It was more of a BnB experience whereas we were used to traveling as a group to high-end VRBOs. Breakfasts were delicious with plenty of carbs and protein for a morning hike.

Great Weekend
We are a group of friends who have been taking an annual Minnesota Fall Colors trip since the 1980’s. Our group is 10-13 people, depending on the year and we have stayed at various resorts over the years. Although we like being on the Lake Superior shore, we decided to give the Manor a try. We were not disappointed! This is a great place for a larger group and Mark and Becky were excellent hosts. Breakfasts were phenomenal! Plenty of activities, inside and out for everyone. 5 stars!

50th Wedding Anniversary
The sleeping arrangements are outstanding. Private baths in all 7 large bedrooms—most with walk-in showers and whirlpool tubs—all with king beds. Easy to add cots for families who wish to include children in their bedroom. Very good, well appointed movie theatre. Excellent dining area where all 14 of us were able to gather around a single table. Professional grade kitchen with ample refrigeration. Large portion, delicious, and varied breakfasts prepared at our selected times by owners. Pool table, outside basketball area, large comfortable library, toy/play area. The house easily accommodated our 4 families, allowing both for large gatherings and private spaces. Mark and Becky are very accommodating and excellent hosts. While they live in the 3rd floor, they are invisible other than morning breakfasts and occasional conversation. Thank you!

Runcation Up North - Perfect Retreat!
Mark and Becky were the most fabulous of hosts for our group! The food was AMAZING and the attention to detail was top notch! And the property itself is just gorgeous - what a wonderful retreat up north! Leading up to our trip Mark was so great at communicating and answering our questions so we could plan for our events, and throughout our weekend both Mark and Becky were so great at answering questions and going out of their way with details to make our stay extra special. (Thanks for that extra surprise of homemade waffle cones and ice cream on Saturday night!:) We booked 2 more upcoming trips with them before even leaving the property. Can't wait to return in March!

We had a great time
We are a family of 20+ that needed a large home for a mini-family reunion and this fit the bill. The bedrooms were perfect (clean, well decorated and spacious) and the host had extra beds to fit us all. The bathrooms were clean and really wonderful. Most did have a little something wrong (paint tape or missing tiles) but were overall luxurious. Breakfast was a dream...that french toast bake...OMG!!! Mark had s'more supplies, campfire wood and lots of outdoor games for us. We were surprised to find that there are parts of the home that we were using that were under construction. Also, there is a very high-energy dog that is out in the house and the yard during the morning hours. This makes sense as the owners do live in the home but we were unaware upon rental that there was a pet in residence. Generally, Mark and Beck stay on the 3rd floor, but we did see them periodically throughout the day. They are more interactive with guests than most VRBO owners, but it works since they are friendly and quite pleasant. Overall, this was almost perfect and, after adjusting a few expectations, we had an amazing time. Be aware that this is a non-traditional VRBO set up and if you keep that in mind, you will have a wonderful experience.

Top Notch!!!
Loved everything about our stay at Fitzgerald Manor! Just wished we would have booked it for a longer stay. We will def be going back in the near future. We travel and stay in a lot of places with our family. It is hard to find a bed and breakfast that can accommodate us. Mark and Becky are the best! So friendly, fun to chat with, very accommodating, and great chefs! Loved our breakfasts! The place is spectacular! The rooms are huge! This house is well kept and full of heart and soul from its wonderful owners. You can tell they take pride in what they do. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place! Book today. I know we will be booking again soon when we can stay longer and enjoy the property for all it has to offer. Thanks again Mark and Becky!!

Northwoods Family Gathering
Fitzgerald Manor was a wonderful venue for our four-night family get-together for 18 people ranging in age from 10 to 81. Mark and Becky were outstanding and personable hosts. All of the spacious bedrooms were private and quiet on the second floor, each with a large well-supplied bathroom. The kitchen facilities were awesome and well-equipped for preparing meals for our large group. The gathering space was great for family games and there was a good supply of equipment for inside and outside activities for all ages. We also used the downstairs theater for group movies. Many of us made use of the hiking trails at some of the nearby state parks. BUT the thing we should have mentioned first was the wonderful breakfasts prepared by Mark and Becky each morning. Furthermore, they were accommodating in making provisions for our gluten-free and dairy-free family members. The homemade ice cream was fabulous and the cookies were a big hit. We enjoyed the variety of visiting birds (especially the many hummingbirds) and the interaction with the resident dog Stella. Thanks Mark and Becky for the great stay.

A great getaway with old friends
4 great days for high school buddies (now in their 40's) and their wives and kids. Plenty of inside (movie theater and pool table in basement) and outside (basketball, volleyball, campfire) and off-premises options (state parks, lighthouse, Enger Park Tower and breweries in Duluth) to keep everyone happy. Breakfasts were yummy, and owners were very accommodating.

Extended Family for 75th Birthday Celebration
The Fitzgerald Manor property is beautiful, spacious, comfortable and very clean. Mark and Becky are warm and welcoming hosts. The kitchen and pantry areas are well suited for preparation and serving of meals and drinks for bigger groups. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large, and the floor plan provides plenty of room and spaces for people to spread out and enjoy different activities. There are some areas of the home that are works in progress, and some sharing of space with the owners (mainly kitchen), but such is minimal and did not detract from our enjoyment or use of the property. The elevator was a huge bonus, great for our family member using a wheelchair and for those not so comfortable carrying bags up and down stairs. Overall, Fitzgerald Manor is a beautiful, very comfortable and enjoyable property. We had a great visit with our extended family (age range 20-75), and would love to stay again in the future.
