Nestled along Minnesota's stunning North Shore, the Gooseberry Falls area is a nature lover's paradise. When you stay at Gooseberry Trails Suites you can embark on a ski adventure directly on the scenic trails that wind through Gooseberry Falls State Park, known for its breathtaking waterfalls, rugged cliffs, and lush forests. A short stroll brings you to the pristine shores of Lake Superior, where you can enjoy easy beach access and soak in the beauty of the largest Great Lake.
Escape to the Gooseberry Trailside Suites, a four-plex with four individual two-bedroom, one-bath apartments perfectly positioned for an unforgettable North Shore getaway. The Lester is the upper unit on the Left side of the building facing the Lake. This quaint apartment is located next to great trails, multiple rivers, the majestic shores of Lake Superior, and of course Gooseberry Falls, this retreat offers incredible access to outdoor adventures. You can hike or ski directly from the property. Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with a dining room table, ideal for home-cooked meals, and a cozy living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace to warm up after a day of exploration.

We stayed in Lester suite. It was very adequate and "just right." The location was perfect for the areas we wanted to be close to along Lake Superior. We would choose to stay there on our next visit!!!

Was a great place for our family to stay the night while visiting the north shore. Clean and beautiful view of the lake from our room! The only draw back was being able to hear the other renters, which was noted in the listing.
It was a nice place to stay for our mini vacation; however, we are disappointed. We had a nice fire going inside, but would have loved to use the sauna. We chose this place specifically for the sauna, but there was a master lock in place on the door requiring a four digit code. We texted and talked to a representative, only to be told to try the door or firewood shed code. These codes did not work. We asked for a call back, but never got a call back. Sadly, we gave up.
