About this property

Spectacular Retreat Right On Lake Superior Upscale Beautiful Decor'

We are private home owners who offer the luxury of staying on the shore in our upscale vacation home. In turn, we look for guests who are willing to use our home with care and consideration of our residential neighbors.

OWNER’S PRIVATE RETREAT ON THE WATERS EDGE……..An upscale, lodge themed North Shore retreat. Un-paralleled majestic views of Lake Superior from the over-sized windows that encompass the entire East and South side of the Living room and dining room. Being right on the lake with these views creates an atmosphere of being on an Inland Sea. You experience the many moods of Lake Superior right out your window. The feel of the waves thunder along the rock face right below the deck and windows. It is so incredible to witness the power and blue beauty of our Minnesota treasure - Lake Superior!

DECKS RIGHT AT THE WATER'S EDGE MATTER ...This 2 story town home boasts some of the best unobstructed views of Lake Superior that you can find. I think you would agree there is nothing like having a North Shore vacation right on the lake! With a large enough deck to enjoy the lake! Also, a private deck with no other guests walking in front of your view of the lake. I would say this is our number one selling point of the lake front Windsong town homes!
LIVING ROOM/DINING ROOM/KITCHEN
From the minute you enter the large entry way of this end unit town home you are drawn into the atmosphere of a true upscale lodge themed home. It feels warm and welcoming with all the unique décor, and as you enter you are immediately wowed by the lake front wall of windows overlooking the waves of Lake Superior glistening before you! You feel you are in for one great vacation!

The living room looks out over beautiful Lake Superior! Enjoy relaxing and looking at the lake or watch the large flat screen TV with Cable. Free Wifi is also available. Enjoy a the gas fireplace after a long day of activities on the shore.

It gets even better…. The dining room area is perfectly situated with windows surrounding it and what a view of the Lake! It makes for a comfortable arrangement for 6 guests. A walk out patio door flows off the dining room onto a large side deck with gas grill or walks around to the front deck for leisure seating.

The full size galley kitchen with wet bar makes for a great entertaining while cooking. It boasts quartz counter tops and beautiful hickory cabinets. It is fully equipped for the needs of the guests who want to cook. Complete with full size stove, full size frig with ice maker, dish washer, microwave, garbage disposal. The kitchen is well appointed with the pots and pans and utensils you need to make your meals. We also provide basic spices to aide in cooking your delicious meals. To help with food storage we provide tin foil, plastic wrap, zip lock bags. We also provide kitchen towels, paper towels, napkins, and dish/hand/dishwasher soaps. The cupboards are filled with attractive stoneware and glassware that sets a lovely up-north table. We think we have hit the happy spot with guests needs for the kitchen. Do let us know if we have missed something we love to keep our kitchens fully equipped.

BED AND BATH ACCOMMODATIONS:
Their 1920 sq foot home accommodates up to six guests for sleeping in 3 bedrooms figuring two per bed. Note: We do not allow for guests sleeping on the couches. We would like to keep the couches nice.

MAIN FLOOR BEDROOM
Features a comfortable queen bed with rich linens. This room has been fabulously furnished from the comfortable upholstered chair to the well thought out art display. Split rock art lithographs and other unique colorful art prints. It has a closet, and also main floor bathroom is next to this bedroom. This bathroom is handicapped accessible with additional accessibility equipment, that must be requested before you stay.

MASTER SUITE 2ND FLOOR (Note: 17 stairs to the Upper level)
The views of the Lake! The sounds of the waves lulling you to sleep! The same wall of windows you experience downstairs continue in this suite which make it a wonderful place to retire for the evening. So handsomely appointed with décor and all you need for a private oasis on your vacation. This has the special feature of a quiet sitting area by an electric fireplace. This room showcases iconic Old Hickory furniture with comfortable couches to lounge on and a flat screen TV. A private bathroom with shower! Could you ask for any-more! It also hosts a comfortable King Bed with rich linens. You feel pampered in this spectacular suite!

QUEEN SUITE-2ND FLOOR
Also features a comfortable queen bed with rich linens. Lavished with furnishings with rich Old Hickory furniture and woods themed art. It hosts, its own bathroom with shower. So nice to have two private suites while vacationing.

WINDSONG COMMUNITY......We are part of the Windsong Cottages that are 26 upscale, hand-crafted town homes in a peaceful valley just as you enter Beaver Bay, MN. This is a premier residential town home community that is aesthetically landscaped and well maintained. It is a quiet, friendly residential community and only a few of us rent our homes out to defray some of the costs.

SHARED USE BUILDING
We have a shared use building with a pool and sauna. Pool (open Memorial day to New Year’s Day) while the Sauna is open Year round.

FANTASTIC LOCATION ---- TIME TO ACTIVITIES
Our vacation home is centrally located just off Minnesota scenic North Shore drive - Highway 61 and is surrounded by some of the premier vacation state park destinations in Minnesota. The closest park being Split Rock Lighthouse which is one of the most visited and photographed lighthouses in the nation! It is hard to beat our location for travelers who want to be centrally located and capture “all” the shore has to offer.

We think you will agree, due to the nature of the shores length, if you are too far northeast or southwest you get trapped into only seeing part of the shore when you visit, but our location meets the need’s of the travelers who wants to see it all. Or, remain in this beautiful section of the shore and enjoy the many premier Minnesota favorite destinations near us.

• 50 minutes - Duluth
• 25 minutes - Two Harbors
• 11 minutes - Gooseberry Falls State Park

Simply spectacular !
The unit was clean, full of sunshine with all of the windows, band a beautiful view of Lake Superior! The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, glassware and dishes. There was even a mat that could be used on top of the bedside table if someone has a CPAP machine to prevent it from falling off. items were labeled to assure we knew how to operate items such as the window blinds: every detail has been thought through! Our group is already talking about returning !

Lake Superior Retreat
This was an incredible home overlooking Lake Superior--incredible views! It was spotlessly clean and had the most well-stocked kitchen of any of the many places we've stayed. Communication with the owner was quick and steps were immediately taken to solve one minor issue. Many hiking trails are nearby as well as other things to do. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by I use secretary/hostess Barb Daugs who answers my emails/calls

Host profile image
In 2015, we (Barb & Bob Daugs) bought 607 Windsong then named it "Superior's Edge"! We wanted to try our hand at doing a vacation home that would become a "beyond your ordinary" vacation home rental - to an upscale vacation home experience!

In 2016, "Camp Coco" 606 Windsong Cottage, our neighbor John and Laurie, who own this property 930065, asked if I would consult for their property as well. I became the hostess/secretary/customer service for his property as well. Their home is stunning and was an easy fit of my original dream.

Today on our 9th year of business we have evolved into North Shore Dream Retreats! We pride ourselves in "going beyond the ordinary" for a vacation rental. Come and experience the difference as we now tout ourselves as an "Upscale Vacation Home Experience!"

Both of these homes we rent out are "boutique" homes. Boutique properties have a distinct character by intentional design and decor and comfort; kitchens that are organized and provide the equipment you need for cooking/dining; has a homey comfort; top cleaning and maintenance management; and providing excellent customer service to the guest.

We have been hosting guests at "Superior's Edge" since 2015 and at "Camp Coco" since 2016. We advertise on "Superior's Edge" 607 Windsong on VRBO.com/661604. And "Camp Coco" 606 Windsong at VRBO.com/930065. We consistently carry 5 star reviews. Those reviews speak for themselves of who we are! We invite you to come and experience where Lake Superior & a Superior stay meet!
Barb Daugs Consultant/Hostess/Customer Service/Superior's Edge Owner
