We had a great time with our adult kids at this home away from home. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make a meal or hang out. Extra touches like firestarters and color additives for the bon fire was so fun! Walked to Agate Bay and enjoyed the museum and hunting for agates. Golf was very close too. Relaxing even with the creaking floors which were fun! Would stay again!

Cute house in two harbors

Very nice quaint historic home in downtown Two Harbors. Location is fantastic as you can walk to lighthouse and downtown restaurants but also access north shore activities. The owners provide extra little touches that make it stand out from normal rental: coffee, tea and hot chocolate, snacks, nice toilet paper! Overall a fabulous place.

Perfect Small Town Getaway!

We enjoyed our stay in Two Harbors. I’ve been coming up to this area for almost 30 years but have never stayed in town. This home was a convenient location for local activities and a short 15 minute drive to Gooseberry Falls. Home was cute-decorated nicely, comfortable beds and perfect for the three of us. We each had our own room. Enjoyed coffee each morning. Full kitchen for those that like to cook. Easy check in process. Enjoyed meals at The Vanilla Bean, Blackwoods & drinks at Castle Danger Brewery. Host was quick to respond to our questions. Thank you so much for your hospitality. Highly recommend.

Great family getaway

My in-laws were visiting from TX so decided to take them along with our toddlers to visit the beautiful North Shore area of Lake Superior. This house was in the perfect location to visit so many places: Agate Bay/Beach, Gooseberry Falls, Splitrock Light House. Our kids loved the kids books left in the room and also the games in the living room. The backyard fire set up was great and so easy to use! The kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast and dinners to enjoy after a long day of venturing out. The host is also very sweet and great about communicating and checking in on me to make sure our stay was going well. We definitely will look out for this house when we have friends/family visiting us!
