About the host

Hosted by Barb and Robb

Host profile image
We’re a Minneapolis-based family who loves to travel and spend time in the beautiful Northwoods of Minnesota. Hosting this cabin is our way of sharing that same peaceful, nature-filled experience with others.

Why they chose this property

We chose Whiteface Reservoir for its peaceful, private setting that feels like the Boundary Waters s—yet still offers the comforts of home. Although you feel completely in nature, it's also a easy drive to Duluth, Giant's Ridge or Lake Superior.
