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!

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.

Not only she arranged for daily snow removal, she checked in on us regularly to make us feel comfortable as we were waiting out the storm.
