Keep lifestyle to yourself

Pulled up to property and the front yard was not landscaped and had LGBTQ flag, a black lives matter, women's rights are human rights, science is real, love is love, no human is illegal, kindness is everything sign. I don't care what you believe or how you live your lives, just don't need it to be shoved down my throat. A rental should NOT be advertising anything. This should be a place where everyone should feel comfortable. If signs are going to be put out in the yard, put all the signs out. Heterosexual flag, police lives matter, save our children flag, international flag, humane society flag, ect. Otherwise, the rental was very clean.

This property has a great location and is everything it says it is. Clean bright and has everything you really need. A great place to unwind after a busy day exploring all that Duluth and the north story I have to offer.

If you want privacy, this isn’t it.

Very little privacy. We realized there were loads of windows going into this place, but what we didn’t realize were the quality of the curtains. No matter if lights were on or off, you could see through them. We actually debated running to the store to get a better one for over the door because of how paper thin it was. The property was also completely overgrown with weeds so to get to the stairs you’re pushing through weeds and overgrown grass. The property is not well kept. Last but not least, the bed and pillows were extremely uncomfortable. For over $800+ for a two night stay, I would’ve expected better across the board.

Nice but

It was clean and pretty. This is a nice studio but the view is totally obscured by a house. There was no place to put your clothes. No dresser or night stand no closet.
