About this property

Stunning log home on Pike Lake with many amenities. Perfect for larger groups

Pike Lake Lodge is nestled on 2.5 wooded acres just outside Duluth and only 2.5 hours from Minneapolis. Located on the shoreline of Pike Lake - one of the most popular lakes in the area. It's known for its clear water and sandy beaches.

There is a golf course and restaurant on the east end of the lake (Pike Lake Golf and Beach Club) that is open to the public. In the summer you can rent a pontoon boat there. The property features several nice amenities such as a Finnish sauna, sport court, outdoor fire pit (some wood provided), private sandy beach, pinball machine, bubble hockey, wet bar, ping pong table, gas fireplace and beach house with additional sleeping areas. Beautifully lit pathways guide your stroll around the property. Inside the home is a true 'up north' feel and you'll have more than enough space for your entire group with over 4,300 sq. ft. and an awe-inspiring 30' high vaulted living room ceiling. Cozy up with a good book by the fireplace. Or get the whole family together for a movie in the basement on the 70" big screen TV. Music lovers will enjoy speakers throughout the home and outdoors, where you can immerse yourself in sound. Kids will enjoy the pinball machine and bubble hockey in the basement and ping pong table in the garage. And everyone will enjoy the hot tub too! At Pike Lake Lodge, there's something for everyone no matter what age!

And for the adventure seekers:

Pike Lake Lodge is located near miles of Mountain biking trails and Canosia Wildlife Management area and not far from Sax Zim Bog for our birding friends. Our location provides an easy location to explore all that the North Shore has to offer. Canal Park, the Duluth Aquarium, Spirit Mountain and Downtown Duluth are just minutes away for those that want to spend a day or night on the town. The Miller Hill Mall area is also just minutes away where you can find all your favorite creature comforts like Target, Best Buy, Kohls, etc. With all the amenities and attention to detail, your stay at Pike Lake Lodge will be a memorable one! We look forward to hosting your group!

Pro Tip: Order pizza on your first night and have insta-cart deliver your groceries the next day. Save a trip to the store!

This is a great home for family gatherings. We enjoyed the water, the hot tub and the fire pit. The location is close to Duluth, so we were able to partake in day trips of hiking and touring. I would stay again.

The house was clean and very nice. We enjoyed the hot tub, sauna and beach area. The house is at the end of a long wooded driveway, which gives the feeling of being remote while still being near local sites and shopping. Chris, the onsite caretaker, was great and helpful.

Longer Stay

I can sum it up by saying I wish we would have booked it for longer. The house is beautiful and there is something for everyone to do. The lake is not a very busy lake so it is perfect for paddle boarding and kayaking. My family loved it and we hope to go back next summer!

Our family enjoyed the 4th of July weekend at this VRBO. So much to do, so much room to gather, visit and sleep, such a well stocked kitchen with every gadget and utensil needed! The lake is clean and great for boating, tubing and fishing. We all give this property 5 stars!

Absolutely perfect!

Perfect accommodations for our family gathering! We had 7 kids ranging from age three years old to 11 years old. There is so much to keep them busy. Great little beach area. Nice sauna and hot tub. The house is immaculately clean and has everything you need. Excellently well stocked kitchen. Games, toys, pinball machine and bubble hockey all kept the kids busy. Well maintained. Eric was very responsive and easy to work with. We will definitely be booking again!

What you see is what you get.

This VRBO is at least as good as the pictures you see on the website. We had 8 adults and 8 children for four days and had amenities that pleased everyone. Caretaker Chris was mostly invisible but helped with check in and with information. He sincerely wanted us to enjoy our stay. We did.

Wonderful!

Wow! That was my husband's response when we drove in for our son's wedding weekend in the area...it was more beautiful than the photos and had everything we could've wanted. We were talking about booking a return vacation before we even looked at everything, and everyone wants to go back on a regular basis. Our only regret was we didn't book more days this time. We loved it and it was perfect for our large family!

Beautiful Lake Home

Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home on Pike Lake. The main floor living room has very comfortable furniture and makes a great place to read a book while taking in views of the lake. The downstairs living room, with a huge TV, pinball machine, hockey game, and wet bar is where all the fun happens. We enjoyed being able to watch the Olympics on the big screen at night while having our own games tournament. The kitchen is well appointed, the property feels secluded, and the views of the lake are amazing. The owner is great to work with and we would not hesitate to book this property again!

Exactly what we were hoping gor! Gorgeous home on the lake!

So many fun things to keep the kids/teens busy! From pinball, to airhockey, basketball, ping pong, and even kayaks it was such a fun week! Thankful the caretaker was there close by, when we arrived a smoke alarm was chirping. He was able to take care of it right away...thankful we didn't have to deal with that for hours on end!!! The house had everything we needed and more! Beds were comfortable and having laundry was a great bonus so we didn't go home with a week's worth of dirty clothes. Barely heard/saw any neighbors. The entry to the lake is nice and not gross some lakes. We were early June so it was chillier than we anticipated, but weather was great for exploring all the local state parks!

I can't say enough good things about this property

3 Generations from age 4 to 59 stayed here for a week, by far our favorite VRBO ever! The kitchen was stocked with anything you could ever need and plenty of it, including kids dishes and cups. The beach and boathouse.....a dream! Chairs, kayaks, bin of kids stuff, plus when the kids had enough sun? VD's galore in the boathouse. (Though my 5 year old grandson wanted to know what all those "books" were! LOL) The owner was wonderful, responded to my questions quickly and made us feel really welcome. I would say if you're lucky enough to find an open date......grab it.....because you won't regret it!

About the host

Hosted by Eric Lunseth

Host profile image
Eric and Shay Lunseth have 2 kids and live in the Twin Cities. They are co-owners of Organic Lawns by LUNSETH and LUNSETH Lawn Care Professionals. Their companies specialize in organic lawn care and commercial grounds maintenance. They are avid lovers of the outdoors and spend as much time as possible outside!

Why they chose this property

We can't get enough of the north shore of Lake Superior! We bought this property because it's a great jumping off point for all that this part of the state has to offer. The outdoor activities around here are endless!

What makes this property unique

One unique benefit of this property is it's proximity to both "civilization" and the wilderness. At night, you can hear a pin drop and see millions of stars and possibly the northern lights. During the day, you can run a quick errand to the Miller Hill Mall area or downtown Duluth, located just minutes away. You're close enough to town you can even have a pizza delivered but far enough away to get that "up north" feel.
