About this property
Just a mile up from Lake Superior located in the middle of Duluth!
Urban Silent Sports Retreat is a house built in 1908 with all original wood floors, that is centrally located a mile up from beautiful Lake Superior. This spacious three bedroom, full bath and a half house with full unfinished basement and attached garage has plenty of safe storage for your bicycles, Nordic skis, canoe's and kayaks! Basement is set up for waxing your Nordic skis and we have some bikes and Nordic skis available for renters.
We just finished up our back deck! We now have a table, chairs and you can enjoy the sunshine! Our front deck has a nice porch swing and is covered for enjoyment even in inclement weather!
We opened another rental June 1st 2 miles from Wisconsin Point ! 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom sleeps 6 and we can rent it for just one night unlike this one!
If you are looking for posh, planning to party, smoke at all, do drugs or drink excessively, you'll have to find a different place to rent.
If you want a very quiet house in a nice established neighborhood to use as your home base while you paddle the rivers, bike, run, hike or ski the trails of Outdoor Magazine's top outside town, this is your place!
Home, with much of it's original woodwork, is located less than a mile from Chester Bowl and Bagley which have both running, mountain biking, and Nordic ski trails.
The home is just blocks from being on the Duluth Traverse, less than a mile from Chester, Leif Erickson, and Bagley. We are centrally located so you can quickly get to Spirit Mountain, Superior Hiking Trail, and so, so, so much more!!!
Your hosts spend most of their free time on the numerous trails and bodies of water in the area and would love to share their knowledge with you to help you plan your excursions!
Limit of 7 people, pets only upon approval, $75 pet fee.
Our home is a safe, secure, licensed rental PL20-089 .
Check in is after 3pm and check out is 10 am unless we are vacant after you, then you are welcome to stay all day, just ask us...we are super flexible if it's empty before or after no extra charge!

About the host
Hosted by Wayne Graves

We are both avid Silent Sports Enthusiasts who enjoy this magnificent outdoor playground of Duluth on a daily basis. Eve is originally from Southern Wisconsin and a huge Badger and Packer fan. Wayne is from the Proctor area which is just outside of Duluth. We Mountain bike, road bike, paddle, run, row, Nordic ski and do anything else that is silently powered by us in the outdoors on a daily basis. Eve has written articles for Silent Sports Magazine for the past twelve years along with blogging on Northlandrunner. In addition, she has been the top ski trail reporter for Skinnyski for a few years! Wayne has been working for Super One stores for forty years and enjoys his job! Eve who was formerly a teacher and accountant, now coaches adults who are beginners and those who like to go slowly in running roads, trails, and Nordic skiing. Both Eve and Wayne officiated at the state Nordic and Cross Country meets for decades and used to volunteer for all of Grandma's events for two decades. Eve also times a lot of silent sports events, takes photos at many of them, and puts a few on. We enjoy sharing our knowledge of the trails with others!
Why they chose this property
We lived here until recently when we moved ten miles away to be able to walk out the front door and into several parks, the Superior Hiking Trail, and have some land. It is really close to the lake and downtown along with many trails, parks and so much more!
What makes this property unique
This property is centrally located and has safe indoor storage for all those Silent Sports toys along with a waxing area and bench for Nordic skis. UMD, St. Scholastica, Chester Bowl, Bagley and Lake Superior are all within a mile of this house! Our website details how close we are to so many other outdoor playgrounds!
