Things Are Getting Better At Solglimt

Saturday, November 8th, 2008

Although the economy may not be very good, that doesn’t stop us from working to make Solglimt even better! We have been working feverishly to finish renovations to our Harbor View Suite the last couple of weeks. So far we have added to the suite a beautiful new gas fireplace with a pickled oak mantle and granite front, a new love seat sofa sleeper to add another sleeping configuration to its king bed and we are in the process of totally renovating the bath. The new bath (expected to be completed by next weekend) will have a luxurious new thermal massage spa tub and shower, water saver toilet, “green” Marmolium flooring, and glass and ceramic tiles throughout.

Duluth News Tribune’s Awesome Views Contest Winners

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

After visits, revisits and extensive deliberation, the winners of the Duluth News Tribune’s Awsome Views Contest were published in todays paper. Brian and Mary Grover’s Solglimt Bed and Breakfast on Park Point, at 828 Lake Avenue S. was chosen as a fifth place winner in a very difficult decision by three News Tribune judges. With a classic Duluth view that includes Lake Superior, downtown, the North Shore, the Aerial Lift Bridge and piers, Park Point beaches and the Duluth harbor, Solglimt Bed and Breakfast was in a dead heat for fifth place with two other entrants out of 31 nominees. Soon you will be able to see our views on our web cam that we are installing. http://www.duluthnewstribune.com/event/photogallery/id/732/
