This was the perfect place for our little family to stay while visiting Duluth. The space was large enough for our 1.5 year old to explore and had two bedrooms so we didn't have to share. The place came equipped with lots of kitchen items, TV, etc and was convenient to downtown Duluth and had a beautiful view from the street!
