Relaxing stay!
Really enjoyed staying in this historic property! Close access to everything. Could get pretty much everywhere on foot or a short drive. Great time of year to be up on the Shore as well! Prompt communications with the host throughout our stay.

Cute, clean, & comfy home
Without construction, the location of the house is very accessible. The house itself had so much charm and character, very clean and quiet too. I'm looking forward to returning for a longer stay!

Great place to stay
Great location. It felt very homey and had a lot of extras in the kitchen that would have been great if we would have stayed longer. We didn’t realize the owner lived downstairs, though that wasn’t really an issue; just unexpected. Overall a great stay.

Girls Trip
We had a great trip to Duluth. The Host was kind and very accommodating. The house had a cute set up and was clean when we arrived. One of the best features was the outdoor patio where we enjoyed two of our evenings. Thank you to the host for everything Thank

Great Loction
Nice classic home to stay in. There is a coop grocery with deli close by. Easy walk to downtown and the lake area. Stairs to the bedrooms a bit steep, but manageable as long as you are mobile enough.

Great house!
The house is super cute and has tons of character--the backyard and garden are great, too. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds comfy and the kids enjoyed Netflix during the rain. There's so much within walking distance and getting in and out by car was fine (a bit more complicated with construction, but not a big deal), and the Positively 3rd Street Bakery a few blocks away is amazing and the Chester Creek area was lovely for a little light hiking.

Tamara’s home is very unique in its decor. She has covered the needed amenities very well. We were a girls weekend getaway but amenities offered will cover a family with children very well.

Cozy home with great location
Cozy home with a great location for many Duluth attractions. Would definitely stay here again. Would have been a tight fit for sleeping arrangements for six, but with only three, it was comfy. Kind and communicative host.

Relaxing and welcoming
Stayed here during my son's baseball tournament. Enjoyed the fire place and the back deck. Beautiful gardens along with the cutest bunny whom we had to keep scaring off. Best of all we all had our own rooms to decompress in at the end of the night. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Exactly what we were looking for
Being right in town, we were able to take the Lake Walk to Canal Park. Tamara was wonderful host and was quick to respond when we had to reach out. She also recommended a couple places nearby with creeks and waterfalls if we wanted to hike. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone and will plan to stay there again next time we travel to Duluth.

Hidden Gem!
Nestled into the hillside, has made a very cool historic home into a lovely space inside and out! If you appreciate the care and dedication that goes into modernizing a 150+ year home, you will love this adorable space. The outdoor space is amazing as well, with a grill fire pit and gardens galore. The house is squeaky clean and has e everything you’d need to function away from home. We loved our stay at Amber’s place and have already booked it again for next summer!
