Even better than the listing made it look. The kitchen was perfect and had everything needed to cook whatever you would want. Not just bare bones pot/pan and a couple plates. Fully equipped. Even had basics like spices and cooking oil. Very clean and beds were comfortable. We will be back.

The place is beautiful! Wonderful views of Lake Superior. The house was very clean and well maintained. We ran out of propane in the outdoor heater but the property manager responded immediately and quickly brought a new one. We would definitely stay here again.

Great experience at the Gales!
We had a wonderful stay at the Gales! It was the perfect location for our group of 6.We met our adult children and their significant others for a holiday weekend. The house was clean and had everything we could ask for. The view was breathtaking and we were able to enjoy fun time together as a family while also having space for everyone to sleep and relax. If another trip to Duluth is in our future, we will definitely stay again and likely for longer. Thank you for an amazing family weekend and lots of wonderful memories made!

Split Rock Lighthouse Ceremony
Stayed here for the anniversary of the sinking of the Edmond Fitzgerald. Watched the lighting ceremony at Split Rock. The location was perfect to explore Canal Park and watch the lake traffic. The house was super clean. We built a fire almost every night and watched the sun set. Beds were very comfortable and nice pillows. The living room couch is very low to the ground so stacked some pillows on it to make it easier to get up. (We are all senior citizens). Great views of the lake. Would stay here again.
