Balsam Haus :: 2 BR Finland, MN

Summary:
Have fun with the whole family at this newly remodeled haus in the heart of Finland Forest, 3 miles from Hwy 61, and 5 minutes from Tettegouche State Park. Enjoy your days with all the things to do on the North Shore—hiking, kayaking, boating, fishing, golfing, ATV, skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing all while exploring the Lake Superior area. Come home after a long day, cook a meal with a fully equipped kitchen, and snuggle up on the couch, play board games, or relax by the bonfire.

The Space:
This haus has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with tub and shower. Both bedrooms have a queen size bed. One room is considered the primary bedroom, the other room is the secondary which is a bit smaller. Each bedroom has small closet. The beds are custom made and are tall enough for suitcase or duffel bag storage. The living room has a full size couch and two chairs.

The TV is has Roku. You can login to your own streaming accounts- Netflix, HBO, Disney + or Hulu and more! We have added a DVD/Bluray disk player with a variety of kids and adult movies and is connected to the HDMI. The tv also has a chrome cast.

The kitchen has a refrigerator/freezer and is stocked with dishes, utensils and cooking supplies. There are a lot of windows to enjoy the forest-like surroundings. The small deck outside facing Hwy 1 has two chairs.

The backyard has a fire pit with chairs and wood is provided.
