Great weekend getaway

My family of 6 stayed for 2 nights at this charming house. The owner stayed in the basement the first night, and we enjoyed getting to know a little more about her and the area. Definitely would stay again.

I loved everything except the beds. The mattresses felt flimsy and had a scary lack of edge support. Like, if you try to sit on the side of the bed, you might fall off if you don't expect it. I ended up sleeping on the couch the second night, which was decent by comparison. Otherwise this is a great place to stay. Cute house, homey decor, very well-stocked kitchen, nice shower, a/c in the bedrooms, awesome location, no hassle check in or out.Higher quality mattresses would make this a 5 star stay.Still highly recommended.

Great place to stay

Great location. It felt very homey and had a lot of extras in the kitchen that would have been great if we would have stayed longer. We didn’t realize the owner lived downstairs, though that wasn’t really an issue; just unexpected. Overall a great stay.

Cozy home with great location

Cozy home with a great location for many Duluth attractions. Would definitely stay here again. Would have been a tight fit for sleeping arrangements for six, but with only three, it was comfy. Kind and communicative host.
