NOT A 'PARTY HOUSE'

Gentlemen...does she keep telling you to come up with something for your anniversary, or her birthday, Guys! Call me...I can help you plan something that will have her marveling at your thoughtfulness and bragging to her friends. You can do it, I can help. Call. Theresa at 218-310-4721

This home is not rented as a 'party house'. There are guest limits. Suited for responsible groups, families, church groups, ladies retreats, or scrap booking party, Birthdays, and nature lovers. Celebrate mom and dads 50 anniversary with a family getaway, Business trip?... Bring the whole family. Just minutes from local hospitals - Extend your stay in comfort while visiting loved ones, or have peace and quiet while you recover from illness or loss. Is your house is too small for all the kids to come home? Gather all your adult children and their growing families and enjoy a holiday or anytime in this home away from home.

Enjoy family time with the little ones or teens, cooking together in the fully equipped kitchen, going hiking, water rafting, rock climbing, skiing, shopping, kayaking, fishing and exploring all that the Duluth area has to offer. This house allows you to be creative. Don't hesitate to call with questions.

The adventure is right in your own back yard!: This home offers so much history and comfort, while still providing an outdoor adventure. The yard is a 1/2 city block with an array of trees and plant life. Deer are often seen walking through to nibble on the apple trees and occasional a friendly fox pounces around. It may be rare, but you may even sight a curios black bear.

The yard boarders on a creek with lovely waters falls, paths, bridge and a occasional bench to sit on and just take it all in. In the winter this area is breathtaking. Large sheets of frozen water cling to the cliff walls, the air is crisp and fresh. The paths are always used, but not over used. Just perfect.

Wonderful house for girls weekend
This 1914 house is full of character, comfort, amenities and space! We had 7 girlfriends and there were plenty of beds and bathrooms. The kitchen had every utensil, dish, appliance or gadget we could ever need. Theresa was very responsive to our questions. The house is close to Glensheen, which was a great tour, and there is a beautiful trial with waterfalls right out the back door. We should have stayed longer to enjoy all that this had to offer. Highly recommend this house!

Long graduation weekend stay
My family stayed at the Hawthorne Manor for a lovely graduation weekend. The house exceeded our expectations. It was spotless, well-stocked, and cozy, and all guests commented on the beds' comfort. We thoroughly enjoyed the location and the multiple sitting rooms to gather in to chat. We also loved our visit in Duluth and hope to return.

Church teen group
We were in town for Blitz, a teen EFCA conference. This was our first try with the group in a VRBO instead of a hotel. It was a great choice! The students loved it. The house is beautiful and accommodated us perfectly! Very convenient location to the Pier area. Thank you for your hospitality!

Another fabulous stay!
We had a great time! We love being able to be all together. The Manor is so interesting and unique, the kids had a great time playing hide and seek. The owners and cleaning staff were amazing- they even found lost earrings for us! I highly recommend this place! We love it!

The Flock of women
We are a group of 11 women (ages 63-75) that get together the same weekend every year. This home was awesome! We all loved staying there; however, there are a few women that prefer staying right on Lake Superior. They missed the sound of the waves. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting a fun experience in a beautiful old home with all of today’s modern conveniences!
