This place is stunning and in the perfect location. We visited Duluth over a unexpected snow storm during spring break and had plenty to within the condo. Kind enjoyed foosball and the dartboard. The pool has a great bonus. CPlenty spacious. We braved the snow and walked to dinner and ice cream. Would love to stay here again! Stocked with amenities and really feels like a home away from home!
