It is a basement apartment and home owners were not present, so I can’t speak on that. Very nice patio with grill as well as wood burning chiminea, both of which we used and enjoyed immensely.

Canal Park

Canal Park brings Duluth's maritime charm to life along the shores of Lake Superior. The iconic Aerial Lift Bridge welcomes massive freighters while visitors stroll the scenic Lakewalk. Historic red-brick warehouses now house unique shops and eateries where you can sample local craft beers. This waterfront district offers more than just stunning lake views. Explore maritime history at the Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Centre or meet aquatic creatures at the Great Lakes Aquarium. The pedestrian-friendly area makes ship-watching easy and memorable all year round.

Downtown Duluth

City centre Duluth embraces Lake Superior with the scenic Lakewalk trail winding along its shore. The historic district showcases the city's industrial heritage through well-preserved buildings like the 1892 Union Depot and Fitger's Brewery complex. Visitors can watch massive ships pass under the iconic Aerial Lift Bridge or explore maritime exhibits at the S.S. William A. Irvin Museum. The waterfront buzzes with activity from restaurants and breweries serving local craft beers. Cultural attractions include the Great Lakes Aquarium and Duluth Entertainment Convention Centre. Most city centre highlights sit within easy walking distance, making it simple to experience both natural beauty and urban charm.
