Gentlemen...does she keep telling you to come up with something for your anniversary, or her birthday, Guys! Call me...I can help you plan something that will have her marveling at your thoughtfulness and bragging to her friends. You can do it, I can help. Call. Theresa at 218-310-4721
This home is not rented as a 'party house'. There are guest limits. Suited for responsible groups, families, church groups, ladies retreats, or scrap booking party, Birthdays, and nature lovers. Celebrate mom and dads 50 anniversary with a family getaway, Business trip?... Bring the whole family. Just minutes from local hospitals - Extend your stay in comfort while visiting loved ones, or have peace and quiet while you recover from illness or loss. Is your house is too small for all the kids to come home? Gather all your adult children and their growing families and enjoy a holiday or anytime in this home away from home.

The adventure is right in your own back yard!: This home offers so much history and comfort, while still providing an outdoor adventure. The yard is a 1/2 city block with an array of trees and plant life. Deer are often seen walking through to nibble on the apple trees and occasional a friendly fox pounces around. It may be rare, but you may even sight a curios black bear.
The yard boarders on a creek with lovely waters falls, paths, bridge and a occasional bench to sit on and just take it all in. In the winter this area is breathtaking. Large sheets of frozen water cling to the cliff walls, the air is crisp and fresh. The paths are always used, but not over used. Just perfect.

We were a group of 4 sisters who gathered with our spouses and adult children from all over the country (CA to Boston and TX to MN and in between). The house provided a great location for indoor and outdoor visiting, group meals and games. We really liked the location including the pathway to to beautiful walk along the river. The house was comfortable, thoughtfully furnished, clean and interesting!

My family stayed at the Hawthorne Manor for a lovely graduation weekend. The house exceeded our expectations. It was spotless, well-stocked, and cozy, and all guests commented on the beds' comfort. We thoroughly enjoyed the location and the multiple sitting rooms to gather in to chat. We also loved our visit in Duluth and hope to return.

We are a group of 11 women (ages 63-75) that get together the same weekend every year. This home was awesome! We all loved staying there; however, there are a few women that prefer staying right on Lake Superior. They missed the sound of the waves. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting a fun experience in a beautiful old home with all of today’s modern conveniences!

The property was amazing! We were a group of mom's that got together to play Bunco when our children were in 1st grade. That was 15 years ago and we are still going strong. Hawthorne Manor was such a wonderful space for us to get together. We loved how we could spread out and each have our own space and access to a bathroom when needed. It is a beautiful home with a wonderful kitchen, dining room, and sun room where we spent a good deal of our time. The grounds are beautiful as well. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the sun chatting and also hiked on the trails along the creek out back. Thank you Theresa for providing such a lovely place for us to connect and spend quality time together. We will definitely be back! The Bloomington Bunco Beauties

We were in town for Blitz, a teen EFCA conference. This was our first try with the group in a VRBO instead of a hotel. It was a great choice! The students loved it. The house is beautiful and accommodated us perfectly! Very convenient location to the Pier area. Thank you for your hospitality!

We enjoyed the Manor.

Our family used the Hawthorne Manor as our residence during our destination wedding in Duluth. We could not have been more pleased with the space for comfort, entertaining small family groups, and as a home base for all wedding related activities. The home is well equipped, and spacious so many people were able to be in separate spaces for different activities. We hosted bouquet building with bridesmaids, grooms pre wedding dressing, brunch for family, and a barbecue for our in town family. Thank you for the amazing experience this space afforded us all. Highest rating possible from me. Wow.

We have stayed at quite a few VRBOs over the years, and this was by far the most beautiful house we've stayed in.. I can not say enough good things about this property! We needed a large house for our family that were all coming in for our daughters college graduation from UMD! We were all able to have our own private room and still able to gather on the patio or inside in the living room, dining room, or library, and the basement has a huge couch with TV and table to play games at.
The house is old and beautiful with tons of character! Location is great as were just a short drive away from local attractions. Wildlife all over - in yards nearby when you go for a walk, deer within feet away from you. And just a short hike behind the house is Congdon Park, with beautiful waterfalls and scenery.
Theresa was great to work with and got back to us in timely matter.
We didn't have to worry about much, the house was well stocked, from... toilet paper, paper towels, coffee filters or salt and pepper. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes and cookware. Lots of linens and towels-we didn't have to use the same towel the entire time (even though we did!) Lots of dishtowels and dishcloths as well.
Very impressed overall! Thank you for a great stay and lots of great memories made with our family!

Hawthorne Manor had the space, location and ambience we needed for our girl's getaway. As others have commented, the kitchen is so well-stocked we were able to prepare some really great meals and spent lots of time at the dining room table eating, having conversations and playing games. Outside we snowshoed from the yard a short way through the woods to access the Congdon Trail. A real gem to have in the backyard. Mornings were spent in the sunroom sipping coffee and watching deer. Beds were comfy and there was enough hot water for everyone to shower. We can't wait to go back in the summer to take advantage of the large deck and bbq grill.
