Holiday houses in Carlton County

Wendy was a great host and my group had an excellent stay!

My husband & I stayed here with our dog, and loved it! Lake views from nearly every room, even larger than it looks in the photos, well stocked kitchen, and comfy furniture! Hosts were super responsive and friendly, we will definitely be back!

Great place to stay. Well equipped. Great host! Great location! Love my stays here!!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin with our family (my wife, our 23-month-old, 7-week-old, and our Labrador). It was the perfect peaceful getaway. The setting is private and serene, nestled right on the Kettle River, and the cabin itself was spotless and cozy. The kitchen was well-stocked, which made it easy to cook meals, and we enjoyed evenings in the hot tub and around the firepit. One of our favorite moments was enjoying coffee on the deck while listening to the river. Our toddler loved exploring the outdoor space, and our Lab had the time of his life sniffing around the woods. The host was incredibly responsive and proactive throughout our stay, which made everything smooth from start to finish. It’s also conveniently located, just 10 minutes from a grocery store and a few restaurants. Highly recommend for anyone looking to relax and unwind in a beautiful natural setting.

We will be trying to get this place again for every hockey tournament in the Duluth area! This was such an amazing stay for our family! Beautiful, quiet, clean and fun! I recommend this to anyone looking!

A truly magical escape! From the moment we stepped into this cabin, it felt like walking into a storybook. Every corner was full of love, thoughtfulness, and hidden treasures. It was like staying in a living museum—so many charming details to take in, quirky pieces to admire, and cozy nooks to explore. There was something new to appreciate each day. Our kids were absolutely enchanted! They spent hours playing with the games, LEGOs, army men, and other little gems tucked around the cabin. Their imaginations ran wild—and so did their energy (thankfully!). The surrounding nature was the perfect playground: long nature walks, climbing trees, watching birds and critters—it was nonstop adventure from sunrise to sunset. And after all that fun? The beds were like clouds. So comfortable, we all slept like logs every night. We are so grateful to have found this slice of magic and can’t wait to return. It’s more than a stay—it’s an experience you’ll carry with you long after you leave.

What a cozy yurt! We had a wonderful time!

David’s kindness is unmatched. He went above and beyond as a host and a fellow human to guarantee a very sensitive time in life went as smoothly as it could. The generosity David showed is beyond words. David, thank you again.

Had a great stay! Everything was just as described. Easy to get to, friendly hosts, and a comfortable retreat. Can’t wait to come back!
