About this property
The Perfect Location for your North Shore Experience
On the Waters Inn, just steps from the “Big Lake” is the perfect location for those who seek to immerse themselves in the Northland experience. Two very popular state parks are located on either side of the Inn; Gooseberry Falls (1.4 miles) to the south and Split Rock (4.7 miles) to the north. These two parks are connected by the Gitchi-Gami State Trail, a paved walking, hiking, biking path that can be accessed by simply walking up our driveway. This trail also connects you with the Superior Hiking Trail, Iona’s Nature Area (.5 miles), a beautiful pink rhyolite beach, and Twin Points Water Access (.25 miles) where sea kayakers can access the Lake Superior State Water Trail. After enjoying the beauty of the Northland, take rest in our 3,500 square foot executive home. The home includes 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Each room was designed to reveal a picture postcard of Lake Superior, especially the Great Room with its 14 foot high windows and 180 degree view. The master bedroom includes a king-sized bed, an en suite bathroom and spa tub. The upstairs flat also includes a king, futon, and couch with an en suite bathroom. The main floor includes two other queen bedrooms and a private bathroom. To further the Northland experience, we have handpicked all of the prints and pictures found in the inn revealing the iconic places of the North Shore. The modern open concept kitchen boasts all stainless steel appliances and wine fridge. The 4x7 foot granite topped island will provide the room you need to create your own one of a kind meal. Cabinets and drawers are well stocked with utensils, glass and stemware, plates, baking and serving dishes. The Inn also has Blue-tooth and WiFi accessibility. We also provide eco-friendly soaps, linens, Keurig coffee machine, and a hair dryer in every bathroom. As the day closes, enjoy some late night conversation on the 3 season porch as you listen to the wash of the waves and watch the lights of the iron boats as they glide by. You can also relax on the 400 sq. foot attached deck that overlooks the lake, or relax and play some yard games in our new 2500 sq. foot green space, complete with pergola.

This was our third time staying at this property. The layout with the views of the lake are spectacular. The home is so comfortable and was immaculate. It has everything we needed from drip coffee maker, Keurig coffee maker, electric tea, pot, and more than adequate pots and pans. We appreciated the ample space for the group. There were seven of us, five adults and two younger children. It never felt crowded. The beds are very comfortable as well. The kids loved the kid beds (single bed and trundle bed) upstairs. The deck outside is great. And it’s nice to be able to get down to the lake, although the rocky shoreline space is somewhat steep and small it is a good place to sit with coffee. We walked to Iona’s beach almost every day and loved to listen to the birds outside.The tap water was too salty for us to drink. We brought a couple jugs of water and refilled at Tettegouche State Park as needed. Already dreaming of our next stay.
The property was exactly as shown in pictures. This is our second stay at the property and it was wonderful. Communication with the host was great and we encountered no problems with the property. Very well equipped, exceptional views to Lake Superior and located near many hiking trails. We will be back!
Beautiful spacious house amazing views! Clean, well stocked and very responsive owners. Located between Gooseberry Falls and Split Rock, easy drive to Two Harbors, Duluth, Grand Marais, Lutsen, etc.
This house was amazing! Beautiful views, so much space, everything you needed in the kitchen. We especially loved the screened in porch, fire pit and deck. The house was very clean as well.
This was my family's second stay at this property, and it didn't disappoint again. We all had a great time together from eat meals together to sitting outside on the decks either eating or enjoying the sun. The owners are very responsive and make you feel very welcome.
The house beautiful with an amazing view of the lake. 4 bedrooms with 4 bathrooms makes it great for group lodging. Perfect location for hitting the northshore waterfalls. Loved it.
