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.

Incredible place, nicer than pictures. Lots of nice extras.

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.

The Twin Port Resort was the perfect spot to spend our weekend away. The home was clean and had plenty of room for our crew of friends. The sauna was very enjoyable! Would definitely recommend Al’s home to others.

This is a true gem of a home! We stayed with our two children (4 and 6) and had a fantastic time. Even in February’s cold, the lake is stunning, and the house is a true inspiration. The kids loved trying an authentic sauna (simple, beautiful, and with clear instructions), and the private beach was a huge hit. The space is clean, open, and minimalist, but incredibly warm and peaceful. We found this retreat to be a healing space, and it was magical for our kids to experience that as well. Duluth is an easy 10 minute drive (the aquarium is our favorite), and there is a grocery store a block away. Meredith was responsive, kind and honest. This was the best Air BnB experience we’ve had, by a large margin - we would recommend to absolutely anyone looking for an exceptional North Shore experience.

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.

Terrific host. Great communication. This is actually someone's home, which is a nice departure from other Airbnb's. Very clean and comfortable. It's on the right side of the boat launch, so there's very little traffic in front of the house. We didn't really use the downstairs at all, but there were just 2 of us. Only thing I wish for improvement is that the seating on the upstairs deck was covered by awning or umbrellas. Would definitely stay here again.

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.

Very nice stay at this lovely home. Host provided very good instructions prior to arrival. House is very clean, modern, and comfortable. Great location to spend time in Duluth and head up the coast. I would highly recommend staying here and hope to return someday.

Fabulous apartment! Sparkling clean and stylish. Very close walking distance to many restaurants and shops. Did I mention the VIEW!

I had just the BEST stay. Beautifully appointed, incredibly clean and well-maintained and absolutely perfect surroundings! I loved being so close to the beach, too. I especially appreciated how quick and responsive the host was and how willing they were to accommodate requests. They also put together a very thoughtful/helpful welcome binder with everything you’d need to know and great local recommendations. I can’t say enough good things about my stay here and look forward to coming back!

The whole experience was rad! Very accommodating, the spot awesome, quiet, met the neighbors they were cool, close everything. Perfect for a couples get away! Don’t look anywhere else in Duluth, just stay here. We will Be going back.

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.

I’ve been traveling to the shore of Lake Superior for 20 years. I have stayed in many different locations, this was probably the best. Absolutely peaceful and cozy, yet modern and elegant. It was also very unique.

What a wonderful, cozy place to stay in Duluth! Perfect location to walk to and from Canal Park with a dedicated off-street parking spot. The view of Superior was amazing! The place is just how it is described and pictured (perhaps better). The host was very responsive and helpful during our stay. Overall it was a great experience!

Beautiful stay! We came up in the middle of a cold snap and found out the pipes froze. Emily and Austin were amazing about responding right away on a Friday night and came to address it through snowy conditions. They ended up moving us to another cabin so we could be comfortable while they fixed the pipes. Frozen pipes happen in Minnesota, so no big deal. I felt very pleased and considered with how they handled the situation. Thank you!!

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.

If you’re looking for a rustic experience, close to the big lake to share with your loved ones, both human and canine, this is the place for you! Clean, well organized, every thing you need to cook your favorite meals and a comfy bed for a great night sleep. My wife and I and our pooch had a great North Shore vacation here!

These little cottages are a great little get away. Loved the view of the Lake Superior and the area. Each time we came up it was in a blizzard and if you like winter and snow like we do it was a perfect and beautiful place to be. Everything was to our liking. Haven’t brought our son up yet but can’t wait to let our 4 year old run around on the property.

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!

Very convenient location to visit our daughter at UMD and to bring the family dog. We were able to have meals together with the very nice kitchen. The location was great for heading up the shore for some hiking and for heading into Duluth to do some shopping. The best part was watching the sunrise. The perfect location. We will definitely be staying again.

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.
