We’ve been staying in quite a few MN north shore Airbnb’s over the last month as we build out a cabin and this one is now our favorite. Why? Because it’s the first one to offer all these amenities, especially at this rate; a private sauna that you don’t even have to leave the suite to access, an attached garage(!), a private back patio with a separate private fire pit, a large smart tv, a dishwasher and washer/dryer in unit. There’s even a far off view of Lake Superior. We loved it here.” – Acacia “A beautiful, cozy retreat. We went for a winter wonderland to celebrate Christmas, and instead found the weather to be unprecedented for late December: rainy and cloudy. The weather led to spending extra time inside, where it felt cozy, warm, and bright. This kitchen is the most well stocked one I’ve ever found in a rental! I did not want for anything. It was also quiet, no loud appliances to interfere with a restful night’s sleep. Every amenity listed was available and the hosts quickly resolved any issues encountered (all were small). Looking forward to returning when there is snow!” – Daria “Loved everything about this place! Super clean, clear instructions, exactly as described. The fireplace, sauna, in-unit laundry, attached garage, and hiking behind the unit really stood out. Would definitely stay again!” - Leah 📖 Book Your Stay See why guests fall in love with The Bear Den.
