About this property

Secluded Lakefront Home on Superior's South Shore

Eagle’s View is nestled on a 25 acre, 500 foot lake front property in the heart of Lake Superior's south shore. From the moment you start down the half mile drive through the woods you’ll begin to unwind. You'll enjoy complete privacy, stunning lake views, as well as the beauty and serenity of nature.

The home features an open-plan lower level with a formal dining area, a fully-outfitted kitchen with breakfast bar, and a wood burning fireplace that is anchored by a comfortable sectional sofa. The first-floor private bedroom has a firm full bed.

The lofted upper level has two bedrooms (one small bedroom with a full mattress, and larger bedroom with one queen bed and one full bed). The upstairs living room has another sectional and full bed, opening onto the upper deck with stunning lake vistas.

The “bonus” room at Eagle’s View is delightful: the south shore version of a cabana: a free-standing three season screened in porch that allows you to be surrounded by nature. It holds a full-size futon, two side chairs, and an ottoman. It’s perfect for a couple seeking privacy from the rest of the group, a kid’s retreat, or an opportunity to enjoy a book or a board game during a rainy afternoon. The lower level’s wrap around deck has a grill, picnic table and hammock.

Dogs are welcome at Eagle’s View! They’ll have plenty of room to explore and the south shore is full of dog-friendly spots. We do require an additional $25 cleaning fee due to the additional time it takes to ensure the property is completely free of doggy hair prior to our next guests.

Eagle’s View sits high above the shoreline. A steep set of stairs descends to the lake. We advise against their use. There are a number of places in Herbster and Port Wing which offer superb beach combing and swimming opportunities.

There is neither cable nor internet, leaving no distraction from what a vacation on the south shore should be about: enjoying the beauty of the lake and surrounding area, company of friends and family, and restorative nature of this special part of the country.


The south shore is truly a place to get away from it all, but not so far from modern conveniences that getting food and gas feel like a chore. The guest book contains tips on all the incredible outdoor activities, local arts, and places to get groceries, dine out, grab a drink, etc. This is truly a year-round destination, whether you enjoy outdoor activities, local cuisine, art, or simply the company of friends & family in one of the most beautiful locations in the northern U.S.

The home is about 20 minutes from Cornucopia, which has a delightful general store/market, bar/restaurant, and marina. Bayfield is about 40 minutes away, as is Washburn (where the largest grocery store is in the area). Ashland is about 50 minutes away (which has a natural foods co-op, Wal-Mart, and wider range of shops). Duluth is an hour and a bit away.

Eagle’s View is the ultimate escape!

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions you have about the home/property. The manager is also more than happy to discuss discounts for solo travelers and longer stays.

Breathtaking

A beautiful serene home, set deep into the woods along side the south shore. Alot of space and beds for large group gatherings, if you can learn yo share the 1 bathroom. There was everything equipped to feel like you were living at home.

Solitude!!

Perfect location for exploring the area! This house sits atop a cliff, gorgeous sunsets! Made the trek down to the shore, the staircase is not safe but oh so worth it, the shoreline is stunning. The guidebook was excellent, we took a few suggestions for hiking and beach! The house is completely stocked and clean, highly recommend!!

Short sweet stay at Eagle’s View

We were here for 3 nights. The A-frame cabin is on a picture perfect lot overlooking the lake. We enjoyed the swing, cabana, balcony and deck. The fire pit needs renovation and perhaps even moving it further from the house. It seems a bit close to the wooden deck and house. The inside has lots of beds, all but one are upstairs. Due to the vaulted ceiling, all the rooms upstairs are open to the others and thus all sleeping noises are heard. Our mattresses were definitely all comfortable and once we used ear plugs, slept like a dream Our host, Erin, was very quick to respond when the water pump did not work. An unexpected thing for us city folks! Turns out the fuses were flipped off, so an easy fix. Of note: the smoke detectors were not working (no blinking red light) and probably just need new batteries. Glad to see the carbon monoxide detector was working though. Overall we had an enjoyable stay here and hope to come back in the future!

Love it!

This is my second time staying at this property. This time, I brought along some friends and family. They all loved it as much as I do! The secluded location of the house is perfect for a relaxing weekend getaway, plus it’s still close to Bayfield, other restaurants nearby, beaches, hikes, etc. if you want to venture out. Clean, pet friendly, nice host! We’d stay again!

Beautiful and Peaceful Escape

We loved the view of the lake from this cozy cabin. It’s very quiet and it’s perfect for stargazing. Cell service is spotty here but we didn’t mind. I think a little work could be done on the fire pit, but otherwise it had everything we needed! We really enjoyed sampling some of the locally sourced food.

Nice cabin with a great view of Lake Superior

We had a group of 5 adults stay here for a family get together. The cabin is very isolated and peaceful. There is an outstanding view of Lake Superior. We liked the multiple sleeping areas. You could sleep a lot of people in up to 6 different areas at this cabin. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plates, bowls and utensils. There was plenty of bedding and bath towels as well. We enjoyed the board games and puzzles while we listened to the radio. For things to do, we made a day trip out to Madeline Island with our dogs. We also took a fishing charter and caught some fresh salmon that we grilled later that evening. Note, it is a charcoal grill so be sure to bring charcoal and lighter fluid. Communication with the host was easy. Overall we had a great time and would recommend.

Wonderful secluded getaway

We had a very relaxing weekend in this beautiful location. The fireplace instructions were awesome, and split wood was provided. It snowed one night and the surrounding pine and evergreen trees were freshly dressed in a beautiful coat of white. You can see the lake from several areas in the house.

Restful Remote Getaway

Really enjoyed this spot on a high elevation above Lake Superior. The house was clean, and the property manager was easy to communicate with and welcoming. There were lots of flies getting in the house, which was the only drawback, but maybe it was because of the cold weather setting in. Other than that, it was just the experience I needed.

Beautiful View and Location

This property has a beautiful view of Lake Superior and is peaceful and quiet. The location is perfect for day trips to Duluth, Two Harbors, Silver Bay, Ashland, Bayfield and many waterfalls in the area. We saw eagles, deer, a big buck and a cargo ship on the lake as it traveled into harbor. Erin was always available to answer questions and willing to help in any way we needed.

This is place is set in an absolutely beautiful location!

The home was very inviting and very clean and comfortable. The only negative is maybe the living room couch may need to be replaced. Erin couldn't have been nicer to work with...she answered a gazillion questions I had, gave us great recommendations of what to do and where to eat. I would highly recommend the Fat Radish for a wonderful meal. She left us a wonderful gift and checked in to make sure our stay was going well. We were wishing there would have been "stable" stairs to be able to go down by the water. But again the house and setting couldn't have been better. I would definitely go back!

Absolutely perfect!

Eagle's view was absolutely perfect for our family! The property is nestled in a secluded forested area, with beautiful views of the lake. Our two senior German Shepherds enjoyed exploring the property, and were safe doing so because the drive is so long. The cabin is perfect and was well outfitted with everything we needed (and then some!) We were close enough to gorgeous beaches for the dogs to frolic, and far enough to easily social distance. Our host was wonderful and communication with her was excellent. The guidebook was super helpful, and chock full of useful information (for both humans and canines alike). We cannot wait to return :)

Paradise in Port Wing

The house felt very welcoming and friendly. There was plenty of seating and comfy spots to hang out. The host had very clear communications on what was expected for us from our stay, and shared information about local activities. We loved the fact we were able to bring our dogs! Can’t wait to go back!
