Jay Cooke Cottage: pet friendly, Bentleyville 17 miles, christmas tree &firepit

We welcome you to the entire cottage and park like yard on jay cooke rd. We are located in a rural area of Esko, MN. We are right outside official state markers of Jay cooke state park coming from our road,Jay cooke.

Great place to celebrate the holidays with a fresh cut tree to enjoy the season.

Down the road you will find yourself in Jay cooke state park with the superior hiking trail (SHT) and the munger trail boasting several miles of rugged hiking paths, smooth blacktop paths and easy access to COGGS trails

The quiet neighborhood will help you enjoy star filled nights by the fire pit.

We have six camp and outdoor chairs, with outdoor and patio furniture including a hammock. This is your escape from the cities hustle and bustle but close enough to duluth,mn and superior, wi. OR a great base for north snd south shore activities or duluth and outdoor for your stay.

Jay Cooke Cottage invites all outdoor enthusiasts to partake in miles of mountain biking, biking, rollerblading, birding, hiking, nature trails, cross country skiing, snow shoeing, disc golf, horse trails, fishing, snowboarding, downhill skiing, rock hounding, kayaking, paddle boarding, great photography and much more.

Our kitchen is supplied with any utensil you would need to cook a meal for your whole family or group.

We have a coffee pot that brews by the pot or uses k-pods. If you wish to cook outside we have a charcoal grill and freestanding grill for over the fire pit.

The cottage was freshly redone in 2024 including local nature art, Himalayan salt lamps, secondary lighting, essential oil diffusers and a zen nature vibe.

Our cottage does NOT have any cameras for your privacy.
