Duluth Family Getaway

The Brix is a great option for a family getaway to Duluth. Space is clean and thoughtfully decorated / organized to allow for relaxation! Kitchen is fully appointed with all utensils and supplies you might need plus an extra roll of paper towel! Great coffee/tea bar. We had plenty of towels which was handy for after pool rinsing. I might suggest bringing lotion to combat the chlorine! Kids loved the pool - a huge factor in our choosing this location. The Brix is close to almost everything and we were able to leave our car and walk everywhere such as the Railroad Museum. Be aware, the local food mart does not have much options so load up on groceries so you don’t need to leave Canal Park. We loved our stay and would recommend it to others.

Our stay

The location was nice, building was ok, pool area wasn’t great. The price was expensive for what you got! I don’t think I’d stay again!

Best Place in Duluth

We were impressed with so many things about this rental…first, the absolute cleanliness of the property! It was immaculate and well-stocked for any situation. We had five adults in our family group and there was room enough and privacy for everyone. We were so pleased and delighted. The owners were so friendly and accommodating, responding to every question promptly. We will definitely consider this place again when we are in town.

Great location and amenities

We wanted a place that offers walking distance to many attractions, has a pool, and provides both separate and social spaces for our family, ranging in age from 16 to 78. This met all our wishes. We made extensive use of the well-appointed kitchen.

The property was excellent. Clean with great amenities. But the surrounding shops and places to eat were great. The first night we did Red Lobster. One of our favorite places to eat. We also enjoyed Caribou half a block away. We will do it again with our granddaughters next time. Thank you.

Started by Tiegen and Keenan Brickson in 2022, The Brix is Canal Park's leader in elevated Duluth stays. Canal Park isn't just a destination for us—it's where our story began. Our brand honors the enduring legacy of the 1890s Marshall Wells Hardware buildings we call home, while also reflecting our family’s commitment to revitalizing the district and shaping a new era in Duluth’s hospitality landscape

Now, as we expand our footprint in Canal Park with more vacation rentals under development and management, we're not merely building accommodations; we're curating experiences, sharing our warmth, and hopefully inspiring someone else to take a big leap.
