Cozy North Shore Home

This was the second time we’ve stayed at this VRBO and absolutely love how cozy this little house is for family visits. The owners did a wonderful job renovating the home and providing many little nooks and livings spaces for families to hang out, play games, and relax. We loved going in the Coop at night as well!

Beautiful house

We have stayed in many houses on vacation and this was one of the best. Very clean and looked just like the pictures online. It was great for our family and had all the amenities we needed. Two Harbors is a cute little town and great location for visiting all the places on the north shore. We had a fun family vacation and enjoyed the house! Thanks!

Relaxing and convenient

Beautiful cottage, just like the pictures. We were in town for my nieces wedding on the beach of Lake Superior - Gooseberry Falls State Park. It was an awesome weekend! We grilled out, sat by a bonfire, and enjoyed family. The location is convenient walking distance to the water, lighthouse, restaurants and breweries. Great place for family and friends and making memories!

Beautiful cottage!

We loved this cottage! It was clean and cozy and had so many great extra features like the outside sitting area. Loved all the gnomes placed around the house and backyard. The only thing we had trouble with were the beds. They weren’t the most comfortable. But other than that, great place to stay!

Family time

For the most part we really enjoyed our stay. It would have been nice if there was A/C. The stairs were a little scary. We spent our evenings in the screened in area which was enjoyable. The neighborhood seemed pretty quiet. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals.

Two Harbors Experience

We enjoyed our stay. Immentities were fine, beds good. Bath areas good. My husband and our son are both over six foot so they would of preferrred reclining chairs. Little Girls loved the cubby area ! We had fun finding the gnomes. Think we ended up with 15 if we counted the outside ones. All in all we had a pleasant stay. Thanks !

Cozy Cottage

The property was exactly as advertised. The kitchen was fully stocked, which was perfect for our group as we planned to cook all of our meals. The home was beautifully decorated and it was a very comfortable stay for 6 adults with 2 kids. We had 1 minor hiccup with the shower but John/Mac took care of it within an hour of contacting them. John even bought us a round at Castle Danger Brewery for the small inconvenience :) It was easy to check in/out of the property; we would definitely book again!

Enjoyed our stay

Pretty straight forward. We cooked often taking advantage of the fully stocked kitchen. No A/C. Luckily it was on the cooler side for most of our trip. Multiple fans allowed for air the circulate. Decor and quality of finishes was better than expected - not cheap like many short term rentals. Screened in gazebo was great! We were surprised by a skunk on more than one occasion. The owner may want to look into having someone trap it and relocate it. The only downside I can think of was that the cleaner was not finished by our 4:00pm check-in, but it wasn’t a big deal. Played some board games and there was plenty of propane to grill. Thanks for a great experience!

This is a very comfortable and beautiful place. It was very clean and comfortable. They had everything we needed. We did have a lot of trouble with the front lock not letting us in so we did have to go around to the back door a few times. This is definitely place that left us with some fond memories and we would look to come back to.

Great for quiet family

Stayed a couple nights while visiting the north shore. House was clean, and as stated. Comfy, had everything we needed. Nice touch was a fun kids room under the stairs with colored lights, kept the kids busy after a long day of site seeing. Would visit again.

Cozy weekend getaway

The cottage was the perfect place to spend an ‘up north’ weekend getaway. Contactless check in made arrival seamless and the hosts were great to communicate with before and during our stay. The pictures are exactly what you’ll get when staying here, everything felt clean and modern. Loved that we were walking distance from a local coffee shop as well as close to the brewery and restaurants near by. We will absolutely recommend to friends and family and already are looking forward to our next stay here!

We were in town for a soccer tournament in Duluth. Awesome location to both Duluth and two harbors. We couldn't of been happier with the property. It had everything we needed and more. My children LOVED the fun room under the stairs. The hosts were wonderful to work with and there whenever you needed them. I would recommend this property and stay again in a heart beat.

Even better than expected

This rental is even better than it looks online. Every space is big, fresh, clean, cozy, not cluttered. Attention to detail is given for cleanliness. Clear, prompt and accurate communication by host. Excellent location for touring North Shore. About 15 minutes to Gooseberry Falls State Park. Thirty minutes into Duluth, but an easy and scenic drive. Comfortable beds. Plenty of hot water. Caution if you have mobility issues in your group because the stairs up to the bedrooms are a little steep and curvy and the step into the jacuzzi size bathtubs could be a stretch for some individuals. We had no problem (60 somethings). No AC upstairs if you are staying in the summer, but fans are provided and kept us comfortable. Great kitchen, modern, well equipped. We didn’t use the coop, but it looks great. Outdoor furniture is high quality, comfy cushions, clean. Two Harbors is a fun little town: good selection and variety of places to eat in town, or within 10-15 minute drive. Nice big super market less than 5 minutes from rental. We enjoyed exploring the waterfront park at the historic Two Harbors lighthouse. We highly recommend this rental and challenge all guests to find the many hidden gnomes!
