**Snow Removal / Winter Note**: Please note that we make every effort to keep the driveway plowed and the sidewalk cleared for our guests~ for your safety and because we live here too! We recently had two guests who complained that the sidewalk and driveway were not freshly cleared...both in the middle of a snowstorm. This I simply will not tolerate. If we are delayed in clearing, its because we are waiting for the snowstorm to pass or because we are taking care of our busy family inside~ not because we are neglecting you! Your grace, patience, and understanding are welcomed during the winter months as we tend to get A LOT of snow and do our best to keep up!

The setting allowed us to enjoy some beautiful bonfires and make great use of the outdoor grill, which added to the experience. Although we ran out of time to visit the sauna or boathouse, if they’re anything like the dome and as shown in the pictures, I’m sure they’re just as beautiful and well-maintained.

Saginaw, an unincorporated community in St. Louis County just 18 miles northwest of Duluth along U.S. Highway 2, is a serene rural haven nestled in the Northwoods near the shores of Lake Superior. This quiet spot offers a peaceful escape with its forested landscapes, access to pristine waterways, and easy proximity to Duluth's urban energy.
