Lake Superior Hikes

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

When next you travel to our bed and breakfast Duluth, whether for business or pleasure, try to find some time to leave civilization behind and stretch your legs. There are several good trails not far outside of Duluth. We’ll feed you well in the morning, so you’ll have plenty of energy for the hike.

Caribou Falls

The Superior Hiking Trail runs from Jay Cooke State Park south of Duluth to Pigeon River, near the U.S. – Canadian border (with a short break between Duluth and Two Harbors). The trail affords spectacular views of the lake and leads hikers through several lovely state parks and wilderness areas. (more…)

Thanksgiving in Duluth

Monday, November 15th, 2010

The holidays are fast approaching. This tends to be a busy time for many people. If you are hosting this year, friends and family will visit; the house must be cleaned, the pantry stocked, and meals prepared. If you are traveling this year, plans must be made: the car cleaned, tickets purchased, bags packed.

Those of you spending Thanksgiving in Duluth may choose to stay at our Lake Superior bed and breakfast. Staying at our inn rather than with family or friends has many benefits. You can visit the people you love for as long as you like, and then return to your own space. See each other when you’re at your best, and give each other just a little space. Of course you may spend as much or as little time as you like at the inn – you’ll feel good just knowing you can come here whenever you want.

Take a long walk on the beach before heading over to be with friends and family on Thanksgiving. Our Duluth bed and breakfast is in Canal Park, on the shores of Lake Superior; you can walk out the door and walk seven miles along the beach and walking trail to the end of the Park Point. It’s a wonderful way to stimulate the appetite and invigorate the senses. After such a morning, you’ll be ready to sit, give thanks, and enjoy a feast.

Our Duluth bed and breakfast on Lake Superior is a good place to sit and give thanks.
