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.

Long Weekend
My family and I just spent a long weekend at this property. It was clean, comfortable, has a beautiful view. It was located close enough to anything we wanted to do in Duluth or outside of. Only a 20-25 minute drive to whatever we needed. It was a great, relaxing weekend.

Scott was wonderful to work with. He went out of his way to gather information on fishing guides prior to our trip. His advice was spot on. We had a wonderful stay and hope to visit the Duluth area and stay at this great property again.

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

Excellent experience!
I spent a weekend here with three longtime friends for our annual girlfriend’s weekend. It was wonderful! The house was spotless and even more beautiful than we had imagined. The hosts were courteous and helpful and we had an excellent visit. Loved the deck, the cozy fireplace, the very comfy beds, and the little extra details (like the fully stocked spice rack and plenty of fresh towels). Thank you so much!
