We had a large group with all ages and this house worked perfect for everyone. The beach was swimmable and walkable which was a nice surprise- beautiful at sunset. We played wiffleball in the large yard and had outdoor coverage during the rain by using the open garage. The bathrooms are a little outdated but would highly recommend this property!

This property worked very well for our family gathering with 17 people. Plenty of space to hang out and catch up.
More actual sleeping spaces than listed due to sleeper sofas and futon beds. Kitchen was a little small but functional.
Overall we were very happy with the property.

Experienced "Up North" with our blended family of five adult children, their spouses and our grandchildren. Lots to do inside and out. Lake Superior was closer to the house than I expected so all the better! There's a swimming beach down the road where we saw some spectacular sunsets.

This property was perfect for our large family gathering. Kris was very helpful and communicative throughout the process. The kitchen was well stocked with tools to cook for a group. Beds were comfortable and the breeze off the lake was plesant. We enjoyed the nearby fishing beach and Amnicon Falls State Park. The provided firewood was more than enough for our enjoyment. We will feel fortunate if we get to enjoy this propery again in the future.

We absolutely loved our stay!! Our family and friends had a blast and couldn't stop talking about what a great place it was. It is a beautiful spot (we loved being that close to the beach!) and there was plenty to do. Kris was an exceptional host and was extremely helpful.

Spacious house for a group of 11 adults! We all enjoyed our long weekend! Loved the sound of the waves from the lake and exploring the beach. Beautiful surroundings. Kris was great to communicate with. A wonderful weekend to reconnect with college friends!

An amazing roomy clean and well stocked rental for a large group. There was 18 ppl (5 families) and never once did we feel crowded. Beautiful home, yard, beach.

We had a group of 8 and were all very comfortable - staying right on the lake allowed for beachfront sunrises and a polar plunge. We loved having the great room with a fireplace and even a sauna. We spread out and there were still spaces we didn’t utilize. Very comfortable. Thank you Kris, et all - we loved our stay and are already planning to book again!!

The house has all of the required necessities you will need for a stay. It has kitchen ware, gaming room and a full bedding. The house was able to accommodate all of our groups needs. It has a scenic trail that leads to the lake which is a good spot for relaxing and taking pictures. The owners are very helpful and responsive to all of our questions.

Everything was great! Very well stocked kitchen! Lots of games and books. Loved sitting by the fireplace. Has a pool table, arcade games, and a tennis table!! Great for all ages. It also has a sauna that we enjoyed. Plenty of towels, and blankets. Would love to come back.

We had an amazing experience at this VRBO! The location is stunning. The property is beautiful. The owners are phenomenal to work with! I would highly recommend this property.

Nestled in a serene location with breathtaking views, this VRBO rental is a haven of tranquility by Lake Superior. The sounds of the waves create an enchanting backdrop, turning us all into eager nature explorers. The sandy beach and rocky shores are a nature enthusiast’s dream. The property, featuring two comfortable houses, caters to both relaxation and entertainment, with a basement filled with games, ping-pong, pool, and classic arcade machines that kept my family endlessly amused.
While everything was delightful, a note for future guests: consider bringing your own toiletries and spices, as these personal touches are sparse. A suggestion for the host would be to enhance the welcoming experience with a small basket of essentials and a well-stocked spice rack. Additionally, an upgrade to the Wi-Fi could enhance connectivity for those who wish it. Despite a few spots needing attention, the property’s vastness makes these minor and does not detract from the overall splendid experience. This rental is a true gem for those looking to immerse themselves in nature without forgoing comfort.

This is our second time staying at this South Range, WI property and it couldn’t have been nicer for our family. It was difficult to find a large enough place for our family of 15, ranging in age from 5 months to 68 years. We had plenty of private sleeping spaces and large areas to gather together. The kitchen was all in working order for us to prepare our feast. Kris’ hospitality was great - he was available by messaging and by phone to answer questions prior to our arrival.
AND, of course, the ever powerful Lake Superior was an easy short walk from the home. We could hear the waves rolling in at night!
Thanks for a great together time in your Timber Frame home on the south shore of Lake Superior!

Spacious house for a large family, 5 children and spouses with children of their own, age range of family group is 1 month to 74 years old. Games, campfires, and lake time happily occupied everyone with space for quiet times when desired.

We all had a wonderful time. The house was just perfect for our group of 19. There was plenty of room. The house was very clean and they were plenty of supplies( towels, kitchen utensils and games). We liked the little beach area and the yard was perfect for yard games. We enjoyed our nightly visit of deer. It was about 20 minutes from Dulth so we went into Dulth a couple of days. We went to see Split Rock Lighthouse, Black Beach, Lift Bridge and Amicon park. We loved them all!! Kris was very easy to work with and he answered any questions I had. Thanks for sharing your home with us.❤️

Nice house very quiet. few issued with water pressure and showers otherwise good.
4.9
Great stay at the home with plenty of room for our 4 families totalling 14. We were able to swim in the cool lake and then hop in the sauna to warm up. Was also the closest large home we could find in proximity to Duluth, Meyers beach and Bayfield. Our teens also spent the evening in the game room while the whole family used the spacious common areas.

My daughter’s wedding was at The Grainery at Lakeview Farm and she wanted a place to stay that was close but even better, big enough for the entire wedding party and parents to stay. This place was perfect! We had 20 people stay but everyone had plenty of room. Some sat around the fire, some played board games, while others just sat at the big table and chatted. Plenty of space to sit down and eat our meals. The beds were surprisingly comfortable too! We all expected the typical cheap mattresses of rental units but the owner obviously appreciates the value of a good night sleep. It made our stay all the more enjoyable. The beach access was fun. It’s not really a swim beach but being familiar with Lake Superior and the unpredictable water levels, plus the northerly location, we weren’t expecting it to be. Just a little way down the road is where the Amnicon River flows into Lake Superior, which is super cool. Kris was a great communicator and handled my questions with patience. We are already planning some way to get a big family reunion up here because we want to come back! Thanks Kris and family for sharing your place with us!

The home provided a beautiful place for family and friends to gather during a busy week.
We were surprised by no shower in upstairs bathroom, but we made it work for the elderly guests we had.
The garhouse was wonderful space for my son’s family to stay.

We stayed in this beautiful rustic house & spent time with family. We enjoyed our time spent here.

While there were a few challenges during our stay (due to a broken dishwasher and some water issues), the owner was great at communication and that made it much better. He got the water situation remedied asap and had tips to help in the meantime. The property is very neat. The beach was fun to walk around on and look for rocks and sea glass (thanks to the owner for the tip to look for sea glass!) - the kids loved it!
4.9
Our group of adults, teens, preschoolers & infants thoroughly enjoyed our vacation! The eating area was spread out and the bench seating on one table was particularly flexible for our kiddos who like to sit close. The place was very clean and the setting was peaceful. The house was roomy & comfortable for our group!

My rugby team rents a cabin each year for a weekend retreat. This was our first time renting this cabin and it was amazing. The space comfortably accommodated our large group. The property is beautiful even in winter I imagine it would be amazing in summer right on the lake. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions and made the check in and check out a breeze. Highly recommend this rental!
4.9
The house was perfect for our family. Nice convenient master for the grandparents with limited mobility, lower floor bedroom and game room was perfect for the teens and the rest of us had perfect accommodations too. We played games and enjoyed exploring the lake.
4.9
This place was great! The only down fall I would say is the fact that the place was 30 mins away from Duluth lol but aside from that it was awesome! Everything we said we might need to go to the store to get, we ended up finding it there. Really they have everything you need, aside from a iron lol! There was an ironing board but no iron and we we're all shocked about that one because this place has everything! Lol but over all we had a blast no complaint's here 😊

Excellent set-up for entire family and their kids. Highly recommend. Rate 4.9/5 with suggestion to improve interior lighting, a bit dark, otherwise perfect.
4.9
Lots of room for the 6 families we had staying here. Bedrooms above garage were great for the family members with youngest children for naptime. And they loved the constant deer visits! Owner was responsive and easy to work with. Gave us plenty of info for check-in, handling garbage, burning permit, and anything else that was special about the property. Great place and recommend to anyone.
