Great House, Great Location

Adorable, clean, classic home just steps from Lake Superior. Our group was a family of 6 with teens and young adults. Plenty of room to move around, good sleep setup…stellar view of lake from the back deck. Property owners very accessible and approachable. We will definitely stay here again.

This was our second time staying at this house and our third time staying with Heather and Steve. It’s a perfect little house with easy access to the beach. The house was clean and had everything we needed (except we always bring extra fans). Communication with Heather is a breeze and check in is always easy!

Great Stay!

Our stay at Minnesota Point Beach House 3 was great despite the frigid weather! The home was very clean, well-stocked with everything we needed, and so close to Canal Park. We were there for skiing at Lutsen & Spirit Mountain during MLK weekend so the sauna really hit the spot after a day skiing. The host made our first VRBO experience a breeze. We would definitely book this property again.

This house was perfect for our family! The location right by the path over the dunes to the beach was amazing. It was quiet, clean, and the kids loved the foosball and ping pong in the basement. We loved it so much that we have already recommended it to several friends and families. And we would definitely stay here again!

Pleasant and peaceful

This was our first excursion since the pandemic started. We wanted something peaceful and low key, and got exactly that. Just over the sand dunes from lake Superior and it's beaches, this home offered a cozy peaceful getaway. Would love to try it in summer.

Sand dunes in the snow

Usually we stay in Canal Park. Minnesota Point is a whole new world! The beach, with its glorious sand dunes, is gorgeous in all weather, including the snow we had yesterday. The kitchen is so nicely appointed and organized, and the house is cozy. There is a wonderful upper deck that surveys the dunes and a golden maple right nearby. Good for the soul.

Awesome getaway!

This beach house was perfect for our group of friends! It allowed us to all be together, yet have separate spaces! The location was very close to everything in Duluth and easy to get to. Even in the winter, the short walk to Lake Superior was amazing! Try the sauna ... it's fabulous! Thank you, Heather, for your quick responses and making this a stress-free getaway! We'll be back to one of your beach houses!

About the host

Hosted by Heather Pitschka

Host profile image
Steve and I (Heather) have lived in Duluth for the past 25 and 20 years, respectively. We call it home now and have a tough time seeing ourselves living elsewhere. Lake Superior has a draw and we've been mesmerized since moving here. We both love the water and spend a significant amount of our free time walking the beach, stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking, surfing, canoeing and fishing. We love this area and always look forward to coming home when we've gone on vacation.

Why they chose this property

Actually the vacation home is Steve's first home. He spent much of his free time repairing/refinishing. It is furnished with antiques handed down in our family that Steve refinished. We were unable to part with it when we moved to our new home less than a mile away so we turned it into a vacation rental home in 2010.

What makes this property unique

You'll have direct access to the largest freshwater lake in the WORLD (Lake Baikal in Russia is largest by volume, Lake Superior is largest by surface area)!

You are less than one mile away for the farthest inland port in the world.

You are less than one mile away from one of the largest lift bridges in the United States. There you can view Ocean and Great Lake ships from less than 100 feet as they enter and leave the port.

Minnesota Point is surrounded by water and the Aerial Lift Bridge is the only point of access by land. You are essentially on a island!

Steve lived in this house for several years and knows you have great neighbors!

If you want shopping, coffee, antiques they are less than 1 mile down the road over the Aerial Lift Bridge. You can also make the walk on sandy beach.
