SECURITY:
We have Blink camera at the outside front door and one by the outside basement storage room door. We also have "one time use key code" for the Erental Lock System on the front door. This is the best security lock system as the code is never used again.

Our cottage’s décor has style encompassing many elements of the theme of Lake Superior, its many moods, and the surrounding woods.

This "boutique" home features upscale furnishings such as Flexsteel electric reclining couch & comfortable Lazy Boy recliners.

There is an adjoining bathroom with heated floors, a closet, and attached toilet/shower room.

Queen Suite - On 2nd floor. A favorite layout for two couples who come to the shore to each have their own private suite!

An adjoining, full private bath with heated floors, tub/shower combo.

OUR PHILOSOPHY:
Since 2014 we have served over 450 guests and many repeat guests. Our home has evolved into an upscale "boutique vacation home rental" thanks to all our guests and repeat guests we continue to keep this dream retreat alive! Our reviews speak to how clean and well cared for Superior's Joy is.

We pay well for our excellent cleaning team. We strive to use "most" cleaning products to be natural eco and human friendly. We manage our property ourselves and that has allowed us to keep this a well-maintained home. We have a maintenance man to take care of any issues that would need addressing right away so always text/call if an issue arises.

We decided to share our vacation home with others to offset the expenses of our dream retreat. We are looking for GUESTS WHO WILL PARTNER WITH US IN USING OUR HOME WITH CARE. It is our hope your experience with us will keep you coming back for many years!

OUR COMMUNITY:
We are part of a quiet community of 26 privately owned residential town homes that are not owned or operated by any resort, hotel or lodge. A vacation by owner rental allows travelers to experience a vacation out of the congested resort or hotel settings. You become part of our friendly community of owners and guests. We have a shared use building with a sauna. Swimming pool is open Memorial Day to New Years.

FANTASTIC LOCATION. LOCATION, LOCATION ---- TIME TO ACTIVITIES:
Our vacation home is centrally located just off Minnesota scenic North Shore drive Highway 61 and surrounded by some of the premier vacation state park destinations in Minnesota. The closest park being Split Rock Lighthouse which is one of the most visited and photographed lighthouses in the nation! It is hard to beat our location for travelers who want to be centrally located and capture “all” the shore has to offer.

We think you will agree, due to the nature of the shores length, if you are too far northeast or southwest you get trapped into only seeing part of the shore when you visit, but our location meets the needs of the travelers who want to see it all!! Or, remain in this beautiful section of the shore and enjoy the many premier Minnesota favorite destinations near us. Where you can walk to local restaurants, ride bike trail, Ranger/snowmobile trails all right out our door!

Note how close you are to access all these Hot Spots on the shore!!
