Vacation rentals with lake access in Douglas County

Really enjoyed Jason's place. It snowed and was cold all weekend but it didn't matter. The home was very clean, comfortable, everything in place and easy to find items. Enjoyed the view of the lake with the snow. Also enjoyed the fireplace on a cold weekend. Jason even had the snow plowed early in the morning before we left.

We stayed at Jenna's Home in Duluth for a long weekend. It was amazing! The home was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated. The warm, tranquil amosphere made everyone feel right at home. The weather did not cooperate all that well but we were able to see some awesome waves on the lake from the front windows. It was the perfect getaway for celebrating a birthday and enjoying time with friends. Jenna was absolutely amazing! She is very responsive and helpful. We will most definitely stay again in the future!

Stayed here during the winter and Dale had it plowed for us and ready to go. Fantastic view of the lake and lots of space. Very clean other than a few flies.

This himewas beautiful, comfortable and peaceful. A bustling city just a few minutes away with great restaurants and shops. We loved our stay. Nancy was very friendly and responsive. We look forward to visiting again!

We had a wonderful stay! David was a great host. We had our dogs Cal and Mable along for the trip. Cal and Mable made a new friend Davids dog Jack. Jack was such a sweetheart. Good times were made playing in the lake and sitting around the campfire. I highly recommend.

Our group enjoyed our stay, we especially loved that there was room to spread out and a sauna and games to do!

Everything was perfect. When at the house we spent most of our stay on the back porch- comfortable, well appointed and gorgeous views. Loved the Bluetooth lantern speaker! All the instructions easy and the sauna was a bonus- even did a quick dip in the lake which is say a lot for April! Next time we hope to have time for the fire pit. Daily walk along Brighton Beach and the Lakewalk to Lake Superior Brewery. Lunch from Falenstin- both wonderful!

This is our second time staying at Williams home in Duluth. It is spacious, clean and well equipped with everything we need for a week of relaxation. The home is furnished with items to start the week without having to run to the store. The beach is close and quiet. Would definitely recommend.

Stop looking and just book! This was the perfect place for a fun girls weekend. The place was very clean and comfortable. Host was super responsive and accommodating. Great location by shops and restaurants. I just can’t say enough. The space was also super clean and well stocked with thoughtful amenities.

This place was great!! Very clean and included everything we needed! Nice views abs very cozy.

What a perfect spot to stay! Andrew and Shelby were able to accommodate me on extremely short notice. They are very responsive! The place has such an eclectic and nostalgic vibe to it!! I was obsessed with all the old-school music stuff. But i’m not gonna give any specifics because you just have to go find out for yourself! You will not be disappointed! The beach Access was phenomenal! But my favorite part about staying here was the bathtub! It’s a Jacuzzi bathtub big enough for basically three people and I had the whole thing to myself. I couldn’t get enough! I’m up in Duluth quite a bit and I will definitely be back !

I was in Duluth for a work trip and absolutely loved this space. It's right near the hustle and bustle of downtown, but still private and peaceful. The view of Lake Superior from the deck is absolutely beautiful. The furniture, bed, and amenities were all up to date and well maintained. Although it's a smaller space, the owners did a fantastic job of making it feel spacious while ensuring comfortability. If I need to visit Duluth again, this will be the first place I check to see if it's available!

Great stay, responsive host, perfect location right on the beach.

This rental has it all for any couple who wants to experience the beauty of Lake Superior and be able to walk to just about everything in Duluth. We explored the North Shore by car during the day and the city by foot in the evening. The view is so mesmerizing it's hard to close the curtains at night and miss the early sunrise, if you're lucky you can watch a ship passing through the famous lift bridge too.

This is a gem! Perfect for one or two people. Cozy and clean apartment with a location that can’t be beat! Miles of Lake Superior beach right outside and easy walking distance to Canal Park. Would definitely return!

We had a lovely stay here! Close to Duluth and a gateway to the North Shore--ideal for what we were looking for. Hosts are extremely communicative and all went smoothly. A plus is a kind of secret private beach right across the road--lovely!

This is our third stay and we are booked for another! Always clean, easy check in, and just a great space. Highly recommended!

The cabin was comfortable and we loved the location. Its right off of a quiet beach and walking distance from the pier; it really is the best of both worlds! We highly recommend staying here. Kathy was great to work with.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My husband and I had the perfect weekend getaway at North Shore Cottages! The cottage was small but cozy—exactly what we were looking for. It was clean, well-maintained, and had all the amenities listed. The best part was the stunning view right in front of the North Shore—absolutely breathtaking! Our host was fantastic—flexible, prompt, and incredibly responsive. They provided plenty of great local recommendations that made our trip even more enjoyable. The cottage itself was charming, quaint, and humble, making it a peaceful and relaxing escape. If you’re looking for a beautiful, quiet spot to enjoy the North Shore, this is it! We’ll definitely be back.

My mom and I had a great stay. We only had time for a quick overnight trip, and the cottage we picked was perfect for that. We will definitely recommend this to our friends and family! The hosts are great too! They were very helpful and quick to respond when I had questions.

We stayed Brian’s Dowling Lakefront Lodge with my husband’s family to celebrate Christmas! We had a wonderful stay, the cottage had everything we needed and more for our stay. The game room was a big hit and the younger kiddos even enjoyed sledding on the lake. The listing is as shown - the house has so much character and the bedrooms all have different sleeping arrangements which worked great for our group. There are 2.5 bathrooms but only 1 shower but that was not an issue for our group. The game table in the family room provided an extra spot for multiple game options. The property was easy to find thanks to the clear instructions/directions Brian provided. He was a very responsive host and easy to work with! We went to Bentleyville and we also went to Manitou Falls. Fantastic stay, we will be back! Thank you!

Stayed here twice now and loved it, my toddler and pup are both very happy here. love that it's across from the lake and north of town but still close to everything.

Great place to stay. Small but had what I needed except wifi. It is a duplex which I didn't realize so it was a smaller area than I expected but nice.
