_____________________________________________

ROAD CONSTRUCTION: Please note: London Road (Hwy 61) will be under construction during the 2026 season, beginning in late April and continuing into the fall. During this project, northbound traffic on London Road will remain open, but southbound traffic will be detoured to Superior Street through portions of the work area. For guests, the main impact will be extra travel time when heading south toward downtown Duluth, Canal Park, and other western parts of the city. The detour is expected to affect travel patterns for much of the construction season, so we recommend allowing a little extra time when arriving, departing, or planning outings.

Our goal is to make your stay as smooth as possible, and we simply want guests to be aware of the roadwork before arrival. For the most current project details and detour maps, please review the official MnDOT information below:

It's a perfect location for 2-4 adults that want to be on the lake shore and within reach of downtown and the canal. Very well kept and a well thought out design. We would definitely recommend it to others.

First visit to Duluth and this amazing Carriage House did not disappoint! Absolutely beautiful and inviting. We enjoyed the amazing views, the fully stocked kitchen, the light & bright rooms, the cozy fireplace and the super comfortable blankets and bedding. We cooked a few meals in the kitchen and grilled steaks on the grill. We enjoyed discovering all of the charming things to do in Duluth: the aquarium, Hartley Nature Center, bookstores, galleries, and great food. We went to Duluth Grill, The Silo and Blackwoods Grill. Just a fabulous visit. Thank you for such a lovely space. We will definitely return!
