Great spot on the North Shore!

This house in Two Harbors was a great place for our friend group to stay while we took day trips along the North Shore. The bedding and towels were nice, the kitchen was really well appointed and the furniture was comfortable. We loved the two outdoor seating areas! The host was incredibly responsive and the house was very clean. We highly recommend it!

Great place to stay

We had 3 couples - very accommodating and nice size bedrooms and very nice beds. Very clean. Great space to make meals and one night had s’mores outside around the fire pit. The town is lovely and convenient to get groceries. Also like how close it was for day trips to Duluth and only 79 miles to Grand Marais and all kinds of great hiking. Very close to Rustic Inn in Castle Danger - great pies:)

Perfect retreat for our family!

We had a wonderful stay at this location in Two Harbors. The host Kim was so kind and very communicative before and throughout the stay. The house was spacious and well stocked with what we needed to have an easy and restful weekend for us and our 5 children! The house was super clean, comfortable furniture and large bedrooms were just a few of the things we loved and we felt very much 'at home' while there. We would recommend this house to anyone heading to the area.

We had an issue with a light upon arrival, and communication with the host was super quick and they took care of it right away! Plenty of space for sleeping, making meals, eating, and hanging out.

Summer In Two Harbors

We had a nice stay in Two Harbors and enjoyed the house. It was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed for our vacation. Kim was helpful and allowed us an early check-in, which was much appreciated. The location was great, and the neighborhood was quiet. There was plenty of space for our kids to run and play, and we really enjoyed the deck out back - perfect for relaxing with an evening beverage! We would be happy to stay here again!

The house was well stocked and clean. Our stay went well. A 4 and a half star is more accurate. Minor complaints keeping it not a 5. The bathrooms are on the small side, and I don't think the TV downstairs was connected to cable or streaming. Maybe I messed up. Multiple light switches that didn't control anything. We would stay there again.

Great for families with kids!

There were 8 of us, 6 adults and 2 preschoolers. This home was just the right size. Large living room, family room, and kitchen plus 4 bedrooms helped us to have lots of elbow room. And having three toilets and two showers was a blessing! Everything was very clean, and the beds were comfortable. And the large driveway area was great! Would recommend to any large family group!

Our stay was perfect! The house was in a great location in Two Harbors. The first night we checked in and drove back to Duluth for dinner at Grandma’s Saloon and then went to the Haunted Ghost Ship. Made it great for a day trip up to Grand Portage to the highest waterfall in Minnesota and dinner in Grand Marais. The second day we traveled back north to Cascade River State Park and made our way back down the shore making stops at Black Beach, Iona’s Beach and Gooseberry Falls. The home was comfortable to come back to and we made dinner and watched movies in the evening. The beds were comfortable for everyone. We were supposed to have 8 of us but only ended up with 4, so we each had our own room. The younger two would have liked a television in the bedrooms. Would definitely stay here again. Host was easy to communicate with and responded quickly.

Quiet, Central Location

We had a great time! With kiddos it's so nice to have more space than a hotel room. They could have probably just stayed at the house and been happy, rather than going out to see the sights of the gorgeous north shore! But, we did drag them away to check out Gooseberry Falls, Betty's Pies, and Duluth. This was a great location for many north shore activities. We loved being sort of between Duluth and the north shore. And Two Harbors is such a sweet little town! We loved it!

We arrived and I was able to contact our host immediately as we had some trouble receiving the welcome package and needed the code. It was no trouble and we were in right away. The pictures do not do the place justice, wonderful comfy beds, soft towels, cute little bundles of soaps and shampoos, nice decor and all the spices and kitchen pans you could want. The living space, inside and out was perfect for our group of 6 but could have hosted 8 easily. Thank you for making your place available!

PERFECT!!! The house we rented from Kim was the BEST house we have ever rented!! Immaculate! Everything we would ever need was stocked in this house. The four bedrooms were perfect for us Siblings. With FIVE sisters & ONE brother, the bedrooms were situated so my Brother could have his own area in the basement. I would absolutely recommend this home to anyone wanting to come to Two Harbors. Kim was a wonderful host! Thank you so much for the use of your home.

Wonderful Retreat

Can't say enough good things about this place. It was a beautiful home completely furnished with everything you would have at home. The host Kim/Chad were the most kind accommodating people you could ask to deal with. We ran Grandmas marathon and brought our boats for fishing. There was room for 2 cars and 2 boats with trailers in the driveway. My entire family enjoyed the home and had a great time with Grandmas and fishing and site seeing. Just amazing! Highly recommend this place for a clean, comfortable escape to the North for a family vacation. We have done this vacation for several years and this was one of the best homes we have stayed at.
