ROAD CONSTRUCTION: Please note: London Road (Hwy 61) will be under construction during the 2026 season, beginning in late April and continuing into the fall. During this project, northbound traffic on London Road will remain open, but southbound traffic will be detoured to Superior Street through portions of the work area. For guests, the main impact will be extra travel time when heading south toward downtown Duluth, Canal Park, and other western parts of the city. The detour is expected to affect travel patterns for much of the construction season, so we recommend allowing a little extra time when arriving, departing, or planning outings.
Our goal is to make your stay as smooth as possible, and we simply want guests to be aware of the roadwork before arrival. For the most current project details and detour maps, please review the official MnDOT information below:
POLICIES • No smoking, vaping • Check-in after 4:00 pm and Check-out before 11:00 am • No onsite parties, events, or large gatherings • Must be at-least 21 years old to book • No pets • Quiet Hours: 9:00 PM to 8:00 AM

Wonderfully appointed and designed property. Loved the rock walls. Too bad none of us young enough to use the kayaks or paddle boards! Checked with host after leaving if we’d left a sweatshirt and she responded quickly. Would stay there again.
The Gales was such a relaxing place to stay right on Lake Superior. It was quiet, peaceful, and the lake views were amazing. The property was spotless and had everything you could think of, making us feel comfortable and right at home. There were five of us staying together, and we all had plenty of space and felt very comfortable. It was also just a short drive to Canal Park, which we visited a couple of times during our stay. I would highly recommend this place and hope to come back again!
A second visit for us!Well appointed from kitchen to bedding & bath, etc.Beautiful proximity to the Big Lake!Communication with Tabitha was always prompt, pleasant and helpful.
We had a great stay here. The property is right on the lake with some of the best views we’ve ever had—absolutely beautiful setting. The home itself was excellent and exactly what we were looking for.The only recommendation I’d make is to provide a bit more clarity on parking. It would be helpful to mention that the driveway is immediately after the house when coming from downtown, as it’s easy to miss the first time.Overall, a fantastic place, and we would definitely stay here again.
The location, property and host were all terrific. Right on Lake Superior, we enjoyed watching the full moon reflected on the icy water. The property itself was fresh, clean, well supplied and very comfortable for our group. The host was attentive to any questions that arose.
Great space and very clean. Easy parking and check-in. The view of the lake from inside is beautiful, even in the winter! We didn't get to use the patio due to the January weather, but we would definitely stay here again.
Our stay was fabulous! The place was great with amazing views of the lake. The home and all the furniture in it was extremely comfortable. Couldn’t have picked a better place to relax and unwind for a few days.
This is a beautiful home, gorgeous view. Everything you need is available. We only wished it had been warmer so we could have enjoyed the fire pit! We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!
