Fall trip to the North Shore
The house in Two Harbors was a great location from which to visit our favorite spots on the North Shore. Good kitchen, comfortable bedrooms. Nice neighborhood; we enjoyed watching the deer that visited the yard.

Cute house in two harbors
Very nice quaint historic home in downtown Two Harbors. Location is fantastic as you can walk to lighthouse and downtown restaurants but also access north shore activities. The owners provide extra little touches that make it stand out from normal rental: coffee, tea and hot chocolate, snacks, nice toilet paper! Overall a fabulous place.

Sister trip
Harbor House was lovely. Nice location easy walk to two beaches and downtown restaurants. Very well set up and stocked like a high end hotel. Host was very responsive and helpful. We especially enjoyed coffee and happy hour on the front porch. Would recommend this house to anyone visiting the North Shore.

Great place to stay in Two Harbors! Even though it was hot & humid, they had fans to help in lower level and AC units in upstairs bedrooms. Loved the front porch with the swing!

Perfect Small Town Getaway!
We enjoyed our stay in Two Harbors. I’ve been coming up to this area for almost 30 years but have never stayed in town. This home was a convenient location for local activities and a short 15 minute drive to Gooseberry Falls. Home was cute-decorated nicely, comfortable beds and perfect for the three of us. We each had our own room. Enjoyed coffee each morning. Full kitchen for those that like to cook. Easy check in process. Enjoyed meals at The Vanilla Bean, Blackwoods & drinks at Castle Danger Brewery. Host was quick to respond to our questions. Thank you so much for your hospitality. Highly recommend.

Great family getaway
My in-laws were visiting from TX so decided to take them along with our toddlers to visit the beautiful North Shore area of Lake Superior. This house was in the perfect location to visit so many places: Agate Bay/Beach, Gooseberry Falls, Splitrock Light House. Our kids loved the kids books left in the room and also the games in the living room. The backyard fire set up was great and so easy to use! The kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast and dinners to enjoy after a long day of venturing out. The host is also very sweet and great about communicating and checking in on me to make sure our stay was going well. We definitely will look out for this house when we have friends/family visiting us!

Truly amazing place and wonderful hosts
We really enjoyed our stay at the Harbor House! Anna is a very thoughtful host and took extra care of us while we were hit with a blizzard! Not only she arranged for daily snow removal, she checked in on us regularly to make us feel comfortable as we were waiting out the storm. We ended up extending our trip and Anna accommodated us without any issues. Beautiful house, neat town. We will be back!

We had a wonderful stay at The Harbor House! There was plenty of space for the 7 of us to hang out and also have our own space. The house was very clean and all of the small touches made for a great stay. We will definitely be back!
