4 Rivers Retreat
Three waterways, Cloquet and Artichoke Rivers and Stoney Brook, flow into the St. Louis River near the small town of Brookston. Thus, we present “4 Rivers Retreat”!
Start your day with a cup of coffee on the unique deck overlooking the St. Louis River. After a day of exploring the area, relax with a cocktail and enjoy the sunset. Every season offers spectacular panoramic views from this amazing deck! Gather for drinks, snacks or meals in the newly constructed bar/grilling shed, the “Whistle Stop”, or around the campfire ring. Enjoy laying out on the double-wide hammock next to the river. Pass some time with available corn hole and ring toss yard games. Take a leisurely romantic stroll down the rural roads and paths or follow the train tracks and look for agates. Launch your boat from the nearby public landing or fish from the public shorelines and have a picnic! Visiting in winter? Enjoy snowshoeing right from the property; cross country ski trails in nearby Cloquet and Duluth and downhill skiing at Spirit Mountain. Grab a quick bite at the self-described “small town country bar”, Houle'igans Saloon, within walking distance across the tracks. Meet around the campfire for s’mores. Relax with Netflix in the cabin to wind down the day or cozy up with a good book.
