Duluth family vacation
We loved the fact that we had access to the beach and Lake Superior! It was close to downtown so liked that we could go see the sights and get back quickly. The ceiling fans were beneficial when there wasn't a breeze or we didn't want to hear the early morning traffic. A plug in fan for the upstairs open bedroom area would be helpful. It was wonderful when we could open the windows for a nice breeze. With the extra cottage we had lots of space for everyone. Loved the fire pit. The door to the cottage needs to be fixed, it was stuck and hard to open. Tile is coming off the floor near the shower in the cottage which could rot the sub floor. The shower curtain had mildew on it and should be changed. My son was looking forward to playing the Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 but it didn't work. We had a great time in Duluth.

Great house and cottage in a perfect location to experience the beach and Duluth!
We had plenty of space for our big family, the house was well stocked with very easy check-in and check-out. It was a great place to stay overall - especially for walking a short distance to the beach!

Family beach vacation
We found the beach house & cottage clean and comfortable. The exterior of both is in need of some TLC. A short walk to the beach provided amazing water fun for our group of 10. Appreciated the air cond as it was really warm for Duluth (90).

Ideal location
Pros: Met priority needs for our extended family group of six adults, two preschoolers, two small dogs; host quickly accessible and accommodating; ideal location; 3 minute back yard walk to spectacular beach which feels private; close to Canal Park. House is old with many of the design issues that come with its era. (We know, we live in one.) However nicely remodeled and well stocked kitchen, large dining area; interesting and nicely updated bathrooms; private backyard; one of few rentals that allows dogs. Perfect for two people who biked all over Duluth and loved the bike lane in front of the house; old-fashioned three season front porch fun to watch the passersby. Made good use of the fire pit and appreciated the wood supply in the garage Cons; House and cottage could use some updates- most importantly need a cottage AC and dehumidifier, new cottage mattresses and double bed, linens both houses. Description of layout needs to be more clear for families and those with mobility issues. Be aware that house bathrooms and bedrooms are both on the upper floor so challenging for older folks and younger children. No elevator as stated in description.

July stay
Our family loved the location, especially the beach access. We found a lovely walkable private spot on the bay side to watch the July 4th fireworks - magical. The main building was in good condition, but the back cabin needed updating, better furniture, and removal of the musty smell. The back cabin does not have air conditioning or fans in each room.

Great location and good social spaces
you cannot beat the location of this property, close to beach and shops/restaurants. It is much smaller than expected from the pictures and descriptions (I.e. 2nd for living room is a small open space, there is no elevator, there is no game room, etc. The painted floors are peeling & get all over your feet and in your sheets (yuck) and there was a dangerous broken board on the exit of the patio doors. the guest cottage is really rustic and musty, not great. But the location was fabulous!

Excellent Location
I, my adult children, husband and grandchild rented this house for an extended period in early May. The location of the house was excellent and we did walk to Canal Park and back several times as well as take long walks on the beach. We were fortunate to be able to see the northern lights two of the nights that we stayed there by walking out to the beach after dark. Having the separate cottage for my daughter's new family was convenient, although I agree with other reviews that the cottage is quite rustic with low ceilings and an antique full sized bedframe that is very squeaky. If you plan to have family staying in the cottage, just consider carefully who stays out there, especially if any of the members of your group are tall or children. One note about all the press regarding Kathy Cargill and Park Point: We did see many vacant lots that were surrounded by fencing as expected, but were surprised that it doesn't yet affect the overall ambience of the neighborhood. She sure has an opportunity to do something good and I for one would love to see her build some things that help the community there and in the greater Duluth area. Park Point is a special place. This historic house is a charming little gem there.

We were celebrating a birthday with family and friends and the accommodations totally met our needs and being so close to the lake was fabulous. The host was very resonsive and was very accommodating. We left an Apple watch and he contacted his staff who found it and mailed it out to us! Can't thank them enough for taking the time to do that for us! Wonderful place and you won't be disappointed!

I stayed this weekend with my boyfriend and friends and our 2 dogs and it was the best experience!! We loved the kitchen and the short walk to the beach in the back yard. It was cozy and so accommodating, everything we needed was there for us. We were able to easily cook meals and played some of the board games that were there for us too. Being able to walk to the lift bridge and Canal park was amazing too. We all had a wonderful time and will definitely be coming back!
