Beautifully Comfortable
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful VRBO property, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the cleanliness and comfort of the home. The property itself was beautifully maintained and had all the amenities I needed for a relaxing stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were comfortable, and the living area was cozy and inviting. I especially enjoyed the fireplace, which was perfect for braving the cold.

Well appointed, comfy furniture, good lighting, well stocked kitchen, top of the line appliances, in town location within walking distance to the brewery , lighthouse, break wall and restaurants. Close to several state parks and a short drive to Duluth. A little longer to Grand Marais but worth it.
