About this property

We are excited to share our lovely, large (2500 square feet), beautiful home situated right on the St. Louis River. Kayak, canoe, fish, or just enjoy the views from this scenic location. There is a large yard (~1 acre) with great privacy. The sunsets are amazing and the river in this area is very private, gentle, and scenic. The house is located near all the great north shore amenities. It is 10 minutes to Jay Cooke State Park, Spirit Mountain, and the Lake Superior Zoo; 15 minutes to Mont Du Lac, Pattison State Park (largest waterfall in Wisconsin), and only 20 minutes to canal park in Duluth. There are so many great places nearby to hike, mountain bike, fish, frisbee golf, golf, etc. You can access hundreds of miles of 4-wheeler and snowmobile trails from the house, and there are tons of cross-country ski trails nearby. The St. Louis River is known for great walleye, bass, and muskie fishing. It really is an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. The home is a charming 1920s house with high ceilings, great woodwork, and is large enough to comfortably sleep 8-10 people. It has a separate sun room, living room, and dining room, so there is ample space to watch TV, play games, do a puzzle, etc. We also provide a charcoal grill, yard games, a canoe, and 2 kayaks so you can spend the whole day enjoying time at the house if that is your preference. There is parking in the driveway and carport for 4 vehicles. We have a list of our favorite activities and adventures in the area that we share with guests. We love this area so much and hope you will, too!

A few notes about the property so we are sure it will meet your needs and expectations. There are bathrooms on the 2nd floor and basement, but no main floor bathroom. Also, all bedrooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floor. There are stairs down to the shoreline of the river, but not too many. There is a train that runs near the house during the day and night, and it does sound it's horn. This could be disturbing to light sleepers. We sleep with the windows closed and some white noise (fans, music, etc.), so it isn't an issue for us. Property is licensed rental with Douglas County, ID #: ALED-CVNMFZ.

Beautiful Home but we did have a lot of lady bugs

This was a beautiful home that all of my friends and I loved staying in. It was very spacious and the sights were absolutely amazing right off the river. I was told about the trains that go by but honestly my buddies and I sleep like the dead so we didn’t hear the trains unless we were about to wake up. I will say that there were lots of lady bugs! The place was very clean other than the little roommates we had but none of us truly minded :) Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful home!

Beautiful Property and Home

Our family took a weekend away to enjoy all the Christmas activities in Duluth. The kids and big kids enjoyed the darts and foosball table. The dining room table was perfect for game night. The kids enjoyed watching the train through the sun room and ran to see it each time the it went over the trestle. The home was very homey, large and accommodating. The river views were spectacular to watch the sunset. All and All the home was exactly what we needed to have a wonderful Christmas get together.

About the host

Hosted by Corey Leet

We currently reside in Coon Rapids, MN. I work in the medical device industry and my wife (Lindsay) is a teacher. We love all of the seasons of MN and the different activities we can enjoy throughout the year. We especially love hiking, kayaking, disc golf, tennis, fishing, snowmobiling, and cross country skiing.

Why they chose this property

Duluth and the north/south shore of Lake Superior is our favorite place to travel. We settled on this property in Oliver, WI due to its proximity to Duluth, Superior, Jay Cook State Park, and being right on the lovely St. Louis River. Due to the minimal development on this stretch of the river, it is a great place to kayak, fish, and enjoy peacefulness of nature.

What makes this property unique

We have a love for old, historic homes and this house has all the charm you could want. It has high ceilings, lovely woodwork, and unique built-ins. Also, the size is great for 2-3 families to enjoy time together. The outdoor areas are great for yard games, grilling, and of course enjoying the lovely sights of the St. Louis River. Whether it is a perfect Duluth day, or overcast and a little rainy, we can enjoy the property and all it has to offer.
