Stayed 2 nights on our way between Voyageurs and Isle Royale National Parks. Place was clean and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked and it was a good location to explore the Minnesota coast of Lke Superior up to Grand Portage. We would stay here again.

The house is beautifully built and furnished. The only thing that didn’t work for us is that the queen size bed needs replacing. Also it was not the best for us that the bathroom is on the lower level from everything else.

North Shore Getaway

We very much enjoyed our stay at Sisu house. Diane was very welcoming and had everything we needed. Our kids enjoyed the fire pit and looking through the books about Minnesota while relaxing in the living room. There is so much to do nearby, we explored several state parks. We would definitely stay here again!

Sisu house

Very clean and well kept. If you come with babies, consider bringing a gate for the stairway. Bathroom is downstairs, living area is upstairs. Owner was helpful and obviously loves this little house. Would definitely recommend bringing bugspray if you plan on being outside later in day. Will stay here next time we come.

Perfect for Snowmobilers

This home was perfect for our family of four. We stayed for a weekend of snowmobiling and this location was wonderful. Plenty of space to park truck and trailer. Home was beautiful and was equipped wonderfully. Only suggestion would be a more comfortable couch. Diane was an excellent and very responsive host.

Relaxing up north getaway

Diane’s place was perfect for me and my 2 adult children. The house has been completely renovated and was immaculate at check-in. We grilled out, had a campfire and played games while we were there. It’s close by to some great hiking trails and state parks. Loved our stay at Sisu!

Great basecamp

We have done a good deal of camping up on the north shore over the years. This was a great alternative in order to have a bed/fireplace/kitchen after a day of hiking, snowboarding and general exploring of the area. The house was really clean and well stocked. We had a great week.

Lovely Cottage

Sisu House is a gem. This was our 2nd time staying here as a family. It is very clean, beautiful, well-maintained, and cozy home. The kitchen is well-stocked, and our kids appreciated a lot of room in the backyard to play and have a bonfire. Close to many of our favorite places on the North Shore. Diane is a wonderful host. Highly recommend!

Base Camp

It was truly a great place for base camp. We didn’t spend much time at the house because we were up there to specifically see the State Parks. With that being said we couldn’t have gotten a better location minutes within several state parks. I wish the bug situation was a little better so we could’ve sat by a campfire but it is what it is being up north! Outside of that it was a great stay.

Another Splendid Stay at Sisu House!

My husband Paul and I recently stayed for a long weekend at the Wonderful Sisu House in Finland, Mn. This was our second stay at this peaceful, lovely and charming property, and it will not be our last! :) Diane is an amazing host! The house is beyond cozy and Finland is Beautiful. Plus, it's a prime location for the plethora of surrounding attractions. Do not hesitate to rent this North Shore gem!

About the host

Host profile image
This is my childhood home, recently & totally renovated. We are proud of our Finnish heritage and that's why we chose the Sisu name. Sisu in Finnish means tenacity in the face of adversity, guts, 'stick to it'- tiveness

What makes this property unique

We wanted to keep the feeling and charm of an older home. But we do enjoy and have installed modern comforts (most recent: central air conditioning and WIFI)
