Kingsbury Creek Vacation Home

Come enjoy our vacation rental! All new in 2019. We're in a great neighborhood - close to Duluth's Spirit Mountain skiing & biking, the retail district, and lots of things to do and see!

This fantastic home is great for families on the go. There are 4 private bedrooms - each with a queen bed, a full kitchen, 2 full bathrooms, and 2 living rooms!

The dining room seats 8. We have a foosball table, two 50” TVs, and a PlayStation 3 to keep you having fun!

The space
Welcome to your home away from home! This home is situated near the end of a dead end road in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Kingsbury creek is just through the woods! Proctor is a sleepy suburb just a few minutes outside of Duluth. You are a few miles from Spirit Mountain, Duluth proper, and walking distance to the bus line.

Upon entering you will be greeted with vaulted ceilings throughout the main living space. There is a full kitchen to cook meals including everything that you would need - a gas range, pot and pans, cookie sheets,etc. Kick back in the bright and airy upstairs living room or lounge in the downstairs living room with the large sectional house. At the end of your day catch up on your favorite shows on (included) Netflix or Amazon Prime. The dining room looks out over the deck, where you can sit looking out at the birds and deer that frequent the yard. During certain times of the year, you can hear nearby Kingsbury Creek babbling away through the woods.

There is a foosball table in the lower level for the competitive types.

Four bedrooms each offer you a queen bed. All the bedrooms are quiet and dark at night - as well as having room darkening curtains. Large closets in all bedrooms allow you to hang up your clothes or store your bags so you can truly feel at home. A desk in one bedroom is perfectly suited for the business traveler or for jotting down your days travels in your journal.

Take advantage of the books, board games, cards, TV, or free WiFi! Check out from your life and check in to vacation mode at our Kingsbury Creek getaway vacation rental.

Other things to note
We offer a Pack ’n Play/travel crib with a washable liner for $25 for your stay - the same fee for any stay length.

We typically put up the Christmas tree from early December through mid-January for your holiday needs.

Fall family getaway
The property was very nice, clean, & located in a great location. Did some hiking & sightseeing around Duluth as well as enjoyed the great layout in the home for family game nights. Saw some fall color changes and beautiful scenery. Kelly was very prompt/responsive whenever I reached out to her. We would stay there again and had a great time!

Couldn't Be Better
This was our second stay at this house on a family ski weekend at Spirit Mountain. It's a great location for that, just a couple of miles from the ski area. There was plenty of room for the 8 of us, and the addition of a new game room was great. The kids (ages 5 - 14) loved the place and want to come again next year. The adults like everything about it, and it was a great value. Thanks Kelly

Beautiful place to stay.
Everything was perfect. Well worth it. Only problem was we were only there to rest our heads. Our main reason we were in the area kept us away from rental so very little time was spent there. Thanks for a great weekend near Duluth

6 sisters get-away
The house was clean and beautiful with comfortable sleeping. We could not use the TV … and the internet was not working for part of our stay. It was not easy to communicate with the hosts. Online communication was not user friendly..at least not for seniors. We did not receive our check in information until 12:04 am on our arrival date and we were getting worried. We did have a nice get away.

We had an absolute blast! I wanted a chill games and fun weekend, that what I got! The couches there are the absolute best. I couldn't get over it lol. I had 5 people and it fit us perfectly. I would definitely book again! Also suggest to book here😍. The house is wonderful and not far from much if you decide to go out. Plus the couches 😍, so wonderful😎.

Plenty of space
We stayed here with our family of seven. The Duluth area had received a foot plus of snow right before our scheduled arrival, and we were very appreciative the snow had been removed, both in the driveway and also the sidewalks. Good communication as well. A ways out from canal park, but the cost reflected the location. Nice place.

Winter getaway
We stayed Monday-Wednesday. We were supposed to leave on Thursday, but a snow storm was moving in. We found the kitchen had what we needed. The couches were comfortable. We watched Prime. It was close for tris into Duluth and the north shore. There were 4 of us so we each had our own bedroom and just 2 people share a bathroom. It was very relaxing!

Found in a pinch, and wound up being perfect!
Our group of 5 (plus infant baby) had planned a snowmobiling trip to Duluth traveling from 5 hours away. Literally on our drive up, we received a cancellation notification from our original booking. Needless to say, we were very frustrated and scrambled to find a new place fast and this place was perfect. Very spacious and clean, our group fit perfectly and had plenty of room for baby. Was everything we were looking for and had excellent communication from the owner. Would highly recommend!

Nice property but…
Comfortable home with responsive owners. However all of the rules with the associated monetary fees were not very welcoming. The feel of the house was “don’t….” versus the usual welcome we are used to. Kitchen was stocked but missing basics, like a spatula. This house does not have a washer and dryer available which we missed.

Nice Getaway
Good communication with owner. We found the kitchen to be lacking in cooking utensils, could have used more hand towels/bath towels. The owner brought us a couple of cooking necessities, spoons, etc. and two washcloths. We let her know the cleaning company could have done a better job for her. The recycle was full and the garbage container had been used for the overflow recycle from the previous guests, we let the owner know so we did not have to pay their fee for excessive garbage. Overall a good experience.

Family Ski Weekend
We stayed at the Kingsbury Creek home in mid-January 2023 for 3-day family ski weekend. There were 4 adults and 4 kids, ages 4 - 13. Two grandparents stayed at a nearby motel but spent evenings with the family at the house. The location was great! Just a few minutes drive to Spirit Mountain. The house was near-perfect for us, with plenty of room for all. The house is quite new, well furnished, and very clean. The two living rooms, upstairs and down worked well; the kids used the downstairs, and loved the air hockey and foosball tables, and the adults used the upstairs. The kitchen had everything we needed and the dining table easily seats 8 or more. Everyone was very enthusiastic about the house and its proximity to the ski hill. The price was very reasonable. We would certainly stay here on any future trips of this kind, and we highly recommend the place! Thanks Kelly!
