Absolutely lovely property.

Our stay could not have been better. The cabin is lovely and well appointed. We cook daily and had all we need. The outside area is beautiful with incredible views and sunsets, great porch and fire pit and beach access. Highly recommend this spot.

The perfect getaway!

This was hands down one of our favorite spots. The location was just close enough for basic needs, yet secluded enough for a few days of absolute peace! All of our needs were met and more. The pictures truly don’t do this place justice for how perfect it was!

Cozy cabin/cottage

The cabin was perfect for two people. It was very well kept up and perfect for 3 o4 4 day stay. The lakefront loction was amazing and rhe view was incredible! The location of the property is quiet and peaceful. Also a nice little drive to both Duluth going north and the Bayfield area going the opposite direction.!

Nice place to get away

Beautiful natural landscaping and overall layout. We loved and used all the outdoor seating areas. Several experiences with the neighborhood eagle! Beach was slightly disappointing due to recent storm debris and seating arrangement in living room would be enhanced with a couch. Great weekend!

Best View!!

We absolutely loved our stay. It was very hard to leave. Beautiful, peaceful setting. Perfect morning coffee spot to listen to the waves. The steps to the beach are definitely rustic, and it was hard on my old knees (very steep), but worth it to sit on the beach. My kiddo would have sat there all day. One thing to note, is the twin mattress are more like cushions than mattresses, but we made it work, and the water heater was a bit small, so when I did dishes and we all tried to shower we did run out of hot water, but not a deal breaker and we will just plan better next time. Overall, the perfect landing spot for a North Shore adventure near Wisconsin, Bayfield & Amnicon Falls and Superior.

Beautiful cabin

This is a very nice property. Clean, quiet and comfortable, with all the necessities we wanted in a vacation rental. Great view of Lake Superior. The weather prevented us from using the outdoor fire pit, which was disappointing. We were able to use our Netflix account on the TV. The loft bedroom had a wonderful view of the lake but is not for everyone - we could not take our bags up the stairs, which are steep and narrow. It can be tough if you have to use the bathroom during the night. We didn't mind the lack of a dishwasher, as we don't have one at home, but some would feel otherwise. It was windy and rainy during our stay. A significant amount of water came in through the baseboards at the lake end of the cabin.

Every night, we were treated to stunning sunsets

We had a fabulous time staying at the Liten Stuga in Port Wing, WI. This charming little cabin, decorated with Scandinavian decor, was ideally located halfway between Superior/Duluth and Bayfield, allowing us to spend the week exploring both areas. The owners were incredibly helpful, providing us with excellent recommendations, including a visit to Amnicon Falls, which we might have missed without their suggestions. We loved our adorable cabin, which had a well-stocked kitchen with everything we needed to cook meals during our stay. Every night, we were treated to stunning sunsets. We enjoyed the quiet, peaceful ambiance, with the sound of waves lapping up on the shores of Lake Superior. Having access to a small beach was a delightful bonus. We had car problems in the middle of the trip and thought we might need to extend our stay to get the car fixed. The owners were kindly willing to change their personal plans to accommodate us. Ultimately, we could limp back home with our car, but we sincerely appreciated their friendliness and helpfulness. We highly recommend staying at this cabin. It was a phenomenal experience that truly enhanced our trip!
