About this property

Lake Superior Barn now has Star Link Wi-Fi!

The Lake Superior Barn is a 4,250 sq. foot home with 4 bathrooms and accommodations to easily sleep 20 people in the 6 bedrooms and 15 beds…. lakesuperiorbarn.com. (see more here.)
It is designed to accommodate multiple families with open bathrooms and individual toilets and showers. The home is just 30 minutes east of Duluth on the sandy south shore of Lake Superior.

Lake Superior Barn rests on 320 acres of remote wilderness and a sandy beach. The home sits on the south shore of Lake Superior, staring across the lake to the North Shore cities of Duluth and Two Harbors whose lights twinkle in the distance at night. The property is completely surrounded by the Brule River State Forest so there is not another home on the Lake Superior shoreline for miles… Enjoy the secluded sandy beach or walk it like an ocean looking for beach-glass. Listen to the waves crash or swim in the cleanest of all the Great Lakes where the temperature can reach 60 or 70 degrees in the shallow, sandy bottom water. Warm up to a driftwood fire or roast s'mores on the waterfront.

Once back to the house, wash the sand off your feet in the outside shower while taking in the 180 degree view of Lake Superior. Enjoy the 1600 sq foot reclaimed deck just outside the beautiful kitchen and a pantry with all the extra ingredients and spices you may have forgotten. Build a fire with firewood provided in the stone fireplace or have a fire on the bluff watching the sun set or lay in a bean bag and pick a book to read from the stocked bookshelves in the loft. Lake Superior Barn has 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 3 showers built from the reclaimed lumber, steel and iron nails of 7 turn of the century Minnesota barns. The game room has radiant concrete heat to warm your toes as you play ping pong, shuffle board or lounge on the couch to watch a movie or TV.... Star Link Wi-Fi is provided.
The Lake Superior Barn is a unique and rustic experience... yet there is a Roku TV and Wi-Fi to stream movies or sports, and also plenty of cards, books and boardgames!

The Lake Superior Barn sits on 320 private acres of forest, wander deer trails or swim in Haukkula Creek that flows the length of the property. Pick raspberries and wild strawberries in the summer or snowshoe the woods and trails in the winter… either way, you will never encounter another person on the private and secluded land. End the day by building a fire while overlooking Lake Superior and watch the summer sun set over the hills of Duluth.

Close to areas like the Duluth, the Apostle Islands, Bayfield and the scenic South Shore of Lake Superior... or canoe the Brule River... the Lake Superior Barn is a remote getaway from a hectic life.

Simply Magical

We've stayed at this property many times and it never disappoints! Enough space for our group of 16 to sleep and open gathering areas. The view of the lake is beautiful and the trail down to the lake is our favorite hike. The highlight is the hot tub & sauna!

Wonderful getaway on Lake Superior

We had a fantastic stay at the Lake Superior Barn House! We traveld with friends, plenty of space, loved the sauna, used the fire pit every night. Took a day trip into Duluth one day, out to Bayfield and Madeline Island another. Highly recommend for a quiet, relaxing getaway!

couples weekend 2024

our group of 8 friends stayed for a long weekend. plenty of space to cook, play games, and relax. we thoroughly enjoyed walking the property &shoreline. northern lights were a nice bonus! fired up the sauna& fireplace, appreciated the well stocked wood shed. would note for the less sure footed folks that the trail to the lake is a downhill path through brush then a 15 step wooden staircase.

Lake Superior Barn was the perfect venue for our small wedding ceremony and reception that took place in mid-April. The barn itself was perfect for our needs and the property and views are gorgeous.

Great, remote week long stay

It was really nice to unplug for a week at the cabin. The property is really cool, the owner/manager are very communicative. Access to the lake is easy and the yard was great for the kids to play in. This is a CABIN, in the middle of 300 acres of forest/farm land, so expect some bugs and mice, but the place was clean and they had mouse traps (meaning the owners are doing what they can). Very laid back atmosphere with owner/manager, answered all our questions quickly. Thanks for a great week!

Beautiful, remote family vacation destination

Our group of 14 had an awesome time at the barn. The weather was beautiful and the lake was full of adventures. We brought our own kayak and paddle board, which were fun additions. No A/C was not a problem, even when daytime temps got into the mid-80s -- the evening breeze was beautiful.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the Lake, the sound of the waves, the endless sandy beach and the fact that you are 30 minutes from an amazing city like Duluth, but you feel so remote and surrounded by nature.

What makes this property unique

The property is totally remote and surrounded by State forest... you will very likely not see another person. The reclaimed home is unique and the feel is rustic. The beach is secluded and it feels like you are on an ocean.
