We are honored to have been recently featured in The Woman Today, an online magazine. The article discusses the transformation of Solglimt from our family home to our family business, and the renovations we have recently completed.

Our home was built as a two-room cabin in 1910. It wasn’t much bigger when we purchased it 31 years ago, but we fell in love with its location on Park Point, by Lake Superior. Our growing three children inspired us to add-on to our home when we could, and once they moved out to start their own lives, we had a pretty good-sized house on our hands.

We decided to share our fabulous location with other folks, and 8 years ago we turned our house into this Canal Park MN bed and breakfast. We haven’t regretted a minute of it. In fact, we recently completed renovations so that we could welcome even more guests, and provide them with views of Lake Superior and the Canal. The Aerial Lift Bridge Suite and the Park Point Suite were built green,  encompassing as many environmentally friendly aspects as we could; perhaps the most fun aspect of the new building is the roof, which will eventually be made of sod.

We hope you will read the article, which can be found at The Woman Today. Being interviewed for it was fun for us – it brought up a lot of memories, and reminded us how far we have come. This has been a labor of love from the beginning, and we look forward to a long career as innkeepers of our new and improved Duluth bed and breakfast.
