About this property

DULUTH LAKE HOME GREAT FAMILY GATHERING ON BEAUTIFUL LAKE INCLUDING A DOCK.

Large family home, terrific for large family or group gatherings or a quiet get away for two. This house is COVID-19 READY! Safer than staying in a hotel, this home makes it possible to get away and enjoy a lake gathering safely. Three bedroom / two bath room home on Fish Lake located 20 minutes from downtown Duluth MN. The home has one very large master suite with walk in closet and tile bathroom with two vanities and very large tiled steam shower. An extra queen mattress set can be set up in master. Main floor has two bedrooms, bath, kitchen, and very large living room with a glass wall overlooking the lake. The living room also includes a gas fireplace. New hickory kitchen and living room remodeled in 2014. The house has a newly remodeled large cedar paneled three season room with four patio doors, and a great view of the lake. Lots of room in the house to set up sleeping bags or cots. Two decks and dock on the lake. The lake is only half developed, you can boat to a resort for dinner or go farther to the part of the lake that is wild and scenic (like BWCA), great fishing. Access to Minnesota state snowmobile trail across the road for hiking from the home two blocks away. Great house for large family groups, terrific in all seasons. Fully equipped kitchen, wireless internet and satellite television. Cottage is sunny, bright, cozy. Property includes a large cedar deck with an outdoor fireplace. Truly a place to build family memories! Canoe and paddle boat for guest use at no charge, remember to bring you PFD a.k.a. Life jackets.

Great lake house for a quintessential Minnesota vacation. Fishing off the dock, smores by the campfire, meals on the deck with the lake view. Couldn’t have asked for me.

The owner of the property reached out a few days before we were to head out to the place and gave me a quick run down of how to go about entering the property, where to park and little extra perks. There was also a sheet of instructions about checkout and a list of phone numbers to call incase we had any questions or concerns. The space was so clean and homey. We took advantage of the wonderful upstairs shower but unfortunately did not have time to get out on the lake. We did a little cooking and baking and I was pleasantly surprised at how fully stocked the kitchen was with cookware. I would highly recommend this place and will definitely seek to come back on some future long weekend with the family to get out on the lake.

This cabin was in a nice location and had a great view of the lake. We enjoyed being close to Duluth but also being right on a smaller lake with the use of a kayak, canoe and paddleboat offered for us. The upstairs bedroom has a great view. However, the property is very dated and was not as clean as we would hope for our arrival. There are not a lot of updates to the property to make it feel modern and some of the appliances did not work great (dishwasher). Also, the sliding door to the back deck did not close all the way so we did not use it much to not let bugs in. There were also cobwebs covering the chairs and tables outside which did not make it very inviting to sit until we cleaned those up ourselves. I think these things could have easily been taken care of. Also, there was a strong smell of sewage when in the backyard in certain spots. Overall, this cabin had a great view and was a nice place but it does need updates inside that would really elevate the experience and it could have been cleaned better. Also please note that the first floor bathroom has only a tub (not shower).

Response from VrboOwner on 30 July 2026
To my fellow VRBO property owners. I absolutely recommend you do not ever rent to these people. They are pathological liars, and cheaters. We charge $75 per dog per day. They brought two dogs tried to sneak them in and made no attempt to pay for them. When I called them to ask about the dog Fee, they said they didn’t have dogs. What they didn’t realize was the manager of the house, lives next-door and had pictures of their dogs when I showed them the pictures of the dogs they said they weren’t theirs. These people are liars cheaters, and will not take care of your home. I can’t emphasize enough don’t ever rent to these people.
