Lake Superior Log Home Retreat

Welcome to our new log home / cabin (1700sf 1-3 bed 2 bath) on a ridge near Lake Superior with easy access to Duluth, Two Harbors and beyond. Great “base camp” for your time exploring the North Shore or just relaxing with family and friends in your place on private acreage.

IMPORTANT NOTE: To keep rates manageable, the rate here is for the house with just the King bedroom. If you want one or both of the other queen bedrooms (each $50/night), just message us once you're booked and we can easily add them.

The property manager, Chad, was excellent. Great communication throughout. The cabin was ready for us when we arrived, and it served us well for our stay. We found the accommodations clean and comforrable. For 2 couples it was especially nice - each having their own bathroom. We enjoyed evening meals, over-nights and breakfast at the cabin and spent the days participating in the attractions from the area.

Great location and a cozy cabin

The cabin provided a great jumping off point for us to spend a weekend on the North Shore with easy access to Duluth as well as further north. The kitchen was great for prepping a few meals and we had plenty of space to relax.

This cabin was a fantastic base camp for our family to explore both the north shore and Duluth. The set up worked well for our family using the main bedroom and one of the queen rooms, and we made good use of the kitchen for multiple meals. This cabin is a good distance from the nearest other cabin and gets some nice wildlife views. The owner, Chad, was very responsive and helpful - we had an internet issue and he came right out to provide a solution. We will definitely keep this place on our rotation for future visits!

Beautiful Cabin

We had a very peaceful stay! The cabin is beautifully done with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially enjoyed the gorgeous kitchen and comfortable beds. Very close to Gooseberry Falls, Iona's Beach, Tettegouche State Park, Betty's pies and Duluth along with many other sites and restaurants to explore. Host Chad was very helpful.
