One of the great advantages of our Lake Superior Bed and Breakfast is the location. We sit on a narrow strip of land that juts out into Lake Superior Bay, with miles of beach at our door. It can be easy to forget that we are actually steps away from the heart of downtown Duluth.

Cheerful holiday decorations at our Duluth b&b

At this time of year, a couple of fun events remind us that civilization is close at hand. One is Bentleyville. Another is the Christmas City of the North Parade, which passed right by our Canal Park lodging a few weeks ago. Glensheen Manor, not far up the coast, is all decorated for the holidays, making tours more festive. The manor is also presenting O’Henry’s classic “The Gift of the Magi” on Friday, December 18 and Saturday, December 19 (7 PM). A tour and refreshments are included. (more…)

July 1 marks the start of the “Concerts by the Lake” series, a free outdoor musical event at Glensheen Manor. Music by the shores of Lake Superior starts at 7:30 pm. Dance, or bring a blanket and relax with a picnic while enjoying the view and the music of The Jim Melde Big Band. Guests at our Duluth Bed and Breakfast always enjoy this event, which is just up the lake from us.

Dance your woes away...
