This house was wonderful! Homey, well stocked kitchens (yes, 2!), beautiful views, comfy beds, and best of all, a (Lake Superior) stone's throw from amazing Agate Beach. We didn't get to enjoy a fire outside due to rain, but wood was provided by the fire pit. We can't wait to visit again.

Beachers Delight

This perfect property is right before the famous Agate Beach parking lot. No place to park on an aurora night? No problem. We enjoyed walking down to the beach every night, lots of coffee on the viewing deck, and actually caught some aurora while trying to photograph the Milky Way. We had plenty of room for everyone to relax and have their own rooms. A kitchen and a half for everyone to enjoy, and plenty of things to do. There were 2 TVs but we never used them with being so close to the beach. We will definitely keep this in mind for the next stay in this area.
