About this property

Secluded North Shore cottage near the lake with cozy fireplace & modern comforts

Escape demands of city living and welcome relaxation! Our cottage is tucked away in the woods of the North Shore. Take in the views of Lake Superior or visit historical lighthouses, then head back to the cottage and relax around the fire.

Close to town, the shores of Lake Superior, snowmobile trails, and only 25 miles from Duluth.

Enjoy fast Wi-fi, washer & dryer, free-parking, A/C, and a cozy gas fireplace.

As our cottage is in the woods, it is also home to many beautiful animals including bear, deer, foxes, and coyotes.

The wildlife typically avoid humans, but they love garbage and are attracted by the smell of food. Always bring all food inside at the end of the night.

Really nice and comfortable setting and place. Perfect size for the two of us. It was our home base while heading out daily on hikes. Very clean, plenty of hot water, TV/heat/air all worked great! Played Darts on nice electronic board in garage. Nice fire pit unfortunately it rained and we had no time to use.

This property is well represented on VRBO. We found everything to be in good working order and very clean. The location made for a very quiet setting. One of the main reasons for our trip was to get a little snowmobiling in. We loved having plenty of driveway to work with (unloading and loading sleds, turning around, etc). The heated "garage" with a picnic table, a heated floor, and even a couch, was a perfect staging area for our gear. One of the trails is a simple a 1/2 mile ditch ride away and it connects right up with the CJ Ramsted trail. The kitchen was well appointed to cook meals and the living room was a comfortable place to relax with a cozy gas fireplace. I'd highly recommend this property.

Very nice private cabin. It was close enough to Gooseberry Falls and Two Harbors to be convenient but far enough away to be private. The deck was great to sit and watch the birds and wildlife. The interior was very clean and cozy.
