As advertised, roomy cabin.

The cabin easily accommodated eight of us for a long weekend. It is in a nice spot in a wooded area, just around the corner from a nice lake and a public park and beach. Easy drive to Duluth and a full service bar/restaurant right next door. The cabin has all the comforts of home. Relaxing and spacious venue for a group that size. I would recommend.

Sweet family trip

The location was nice, I loved the little slope down to the pond, it was very cozy there. There is a bar right next door that added a little flare, like a little getaway from our getaway. :) The house was very spacious and accommodating and is perfect for big family or group retreats. The only downfalls were that the water pressure is low if more then one person is taking a shower at a time and the house has 3 available showers so it’s better to communicate to one another on who's going to take the next shower. The house is not very sound proof either, you can hear everything going on downstairs and in the neighboring rooms on the top floor. However, the house was very clean, comfy and many wonderful amenities were provided. Darren was a very great host as well and I would definitely return to this location!

Comfortable

The house had everything we needed and warmly decorated. The kitchen is well stocked with good appliances. The living area was comfortable and bright. The swimming area was clean and never crowded but not convenient as you needed to cross two blacktop roads to get to it.

Unique

The home itself was nice. Plenty of space outside and inside for all of my family. Even with being next to the bar, it was still relaxing and peaceful. Along with that though, we also had some issues. One, to get to firepit area, it was a steep muddy hill. Very unsafe for everyone. Second, there were multiple interruptions from owners. Once to look at building steps to firepit, another when fixing the connecting rental space, and again when asking for more garbage bags the owner came into the house to unlock a door where supplies are. Next, the advertised private dock was being used by others boaters, who then had to walk through our rented area to get to the bar. Lastly, some ATVs came to bar but instead of parking in parking lot, parked on the yard we were playing beanbags on. The advertised fully stocked kitchen was short on pots and few things, so make sure you are aware of what is there. Overall, we had a very unique experience with this place, but owners did understand some things and refunded a night and we did enjoy ourselves!!!

***Not quite what we expected***

This is nice inside but there were several “surprises” we didn’t expect based on the listing. We did not realize that this is a two unit property until we pulled up. There was another car parked there so we were never sure if there was someone there. Also there was someone staying in a tent that we “think” was on the same property. There were doors that we weren’t sure led to the other unit, but there was not curtain on one which was super uncomfortable. When it said that there was a bar/restaurant next door we didn’t think we’d share a parking lot (literally drive through to get to the property). It felt uncomfortable, no privacy and felt unsafe for our kids to be outside w/out an adult. The listing says lakefront & technically it is but it’s more of a cove/pond feel & there are constantly boats coming in to refuel at the dock next to the fire pit (which incidentally is on a staggered, sloped space and not directly next to the water). A grill was advertised & it was disgusting: rusted out, burrs on the grate & super dirty-could not use it! . Indoors the window facing the water was cracked/broken. A few of the beds were extremely uncomfortable, squeaky (just seemed old). The stairs squeaked loudly. One tv didn’t work & a couple of the remotes did not have working batteries. We appreciated having a place to stay & the main living area was pretty, the deer were fun to watch and the bar pizza is great. I would say good rental/not for families though. Not worth what we paid

It was a great vacation place for our family. We had 8 adults and 3 smaller children and there were plenty of beds and a huge dining table to fit is all. The view of the water and backyard was wonderful.Like any home, there were a few technical issues, but the owners were quick to respond to questions and we worked around most of them.

We stayed at the VRBO the beginning of August. There were three adults and seven children. Sleeping arrangements worked out well. When you pull up- you do wonder what the inside will be like- and there is a little apartment attached to the building where there other people living- we saw them many times sitting in their vehicles- but no interactions and they were quiet. The swimming area is across the highway- we drove over and the kids swam- enjoyed the park area. The bar/restaurant next door had great food. The bar/restaurant was very busy each night- but we had no complaints about it. Inside the VRBO, it was quiet. We had a fire down by the little inlet. The VRBO worked for how our vacation went- as we needed a place to sleep and make suppers. Otherwise, we were out exploring Duluth and the North Shore.

Wonderful House for Family Trip!

Our family had a wonderful trip staying at this large lakeside cabin. We had 7 kids and 4 adults in our group, and we had plenty of room to spread out. It was a quick trip to get to the beach and close enough for us to enjoy all the destinations we had planned. Yes, this is next to a bar, but this didn’t bother our family. It wasn’t too busy when we were there, plus we were able to enjoy the delicious pizza! Darren, the host, was wonderful to work with! Communication was great! In all, we had a wonderful stay!

Duluth vrbo

We enjoyed the time we spent here. It was very cozy. Although it was across the parking lot of the local bar and eatery, it was very quiet at night. The shower in the downstairs bathroom was not handicap accessible, which was disappointing. The bedroom downstairs was very small and not efficient for someone wearing a prosthetic leg. Overall, we were able to adapt to the space and enjoyed ourselves. Thank you for opening your home to us. We would definitely stay again if we choose Duluth for our reunion.

The property was what we needed. As other reviews mention, it is RIGHT next to the bar but we really didn’t notice noise or anything negative about that. It wouldn’t be a first choice for a family who wants a secluded location but it was great for what we needed.
