For the price, this place is very average…read more Pros: Good location right on the water. Almost no traffic noise from Hwy 61. Higher quality look and feel of the buildings. Cons: Very high price compared to most lodging options in the area. Bed mattress is very firm. There is a thin layer of pillow top, but it is well broken down. I had a back ache both early mornings, waking up well before I wanted to. The ironing board is one of those mini ones with a dirty old cover. Although there were wine glasses, there was no cork screw in the room. Although there are big candles in the bathroom there is no matches provided to light them. The s'mores kit we were provided had stale marshmallows. One of the bathroom sink bowls had some kind of unsightly chemical damage. In-room TV is small (20") and low quality. Refrigerator froze our milk solid. I'd be fine with the issues of this place, if the price was lower. For the price they are charging, none of these cons should exist.

In A Nutshell:…read more -Larsmont Cottages is a very nice place if you want to get away for a long weekend. -It's definitely "glamping" where you can either be a part-owner or rent. -Since I don't live in the area, we ended up renting a small room during 2018 Labor Day weekend. -Parking was always easy to find. -The location is off the beaten path & along the north shore of Lake Superior. -You can ask for a free smores kit at check-in & then use any of their awesome campfires along the lake. -They will light the fires for you & provide free wood to toss in. -The room we rented had comfortable queen-sized bed & private bathroom. -We even got a free bottle of champagne in ice & a personal message welcoming us. Overall, I would stay here again. I love Two Harbors and the entire area. It's much better than going to Lake Tahoe bc there's little to no traffic & Lake Superior is the biggest freshwater lake in America.

They've been around a while, or the cabins wouldn't be so close to the water. You couldn't build a resort so close to the shore nowadays. But way back when, Bob (yes, there was a Bob) built these small, humble, unassuming little pieces of paradise, and you get to enjoy them. The website is clear: the cabins are clean, spare, with some couches and/or easy chairs depending on the cabin, with a simple but entirely adequate kitchen. Really, it's all about the lake. You get to be right on Lake Superior, whether it's glassy or roaring, and you get to take it all in. As luck would have it, the owners are charming as well, friendly and easily available. My only reluctance in writing this review is that it make it harder to make a reservation. It's that good.

We just got back from our long weekend retreat at the Lighthouse B&B. Originally, I was going to…read morebook at Americinn at Two Harbors. However, the rate wasn't what I would say reasonable so decided to spend the same amount for the B&B experience. We have already visited Rittenhouse Inn and Summit Inn so this lighthouse experience totally got my attention. At first, I was bummed that all the rooms in the actual lighthouse were already taken. However, the Skiff House was a pleasant surprise being totally separate from the common lighthouse main building. Also, we had a large size hot tub with a pitcher to wash your hair. There were windows that peek out into the gift shop so it was nice that the Lighthouse museum closed at 4PM to get some privacy. We closed the blinds but still found people walking outside the gate to enjoy the sunset. Well, MeLissa was sooo nice to leave us some bread pudding in the fridge after it cooled off. Plus, she helped us with our luggage when we got confused and entered through the gift shop instead of the back entrance. MeLissa showed us the kitchen with an electric kettle with some hot chocolate/tea as well as microwave for popping popcorn. She also left us with 2 coupons at Blackwoods Restaurant and Vanilla Bean Café. We ended up having dinner at Blackwoods and picked up some jam at Vanilla Bean. Plus, there was a voucher to visit all the museums including the Lighthouse museum. I loved that we were able to enjoy the bread pudding after dinner when all the other guests were out. We enjoyed the peace and quiet in the parlor room and popped some popcorn to bring to the Skiff House. We then picked out 2 games- Trivial Pursuit and Phase 10 to borrow from the parlor room. Later that night, we enjoyed the board/card games with popcorn. When the sunset, we enjoyed the hot tub once all the tourists left the park. I would recommend to get eye mask and ear plugs since the rotating light source from lighthouse may distract you as well as boat horns. The next day, I woke up early and explored the grounds while everyone was asleep. I woke up my wife and we walked from our Skiff House to the lighthouse main bldg. to go to the top for the view. We looked through the port holes and watched as barges pass through. I dragged my wife to the observation room to get a good view of the harbor. Well, it was getting close to 8:30AM so we walked out to the breakwater fishing pier and noticed the large barge. When it was getting close to 9:00AM, we arrived at the main lighthouse bldg. for breakfast. Kevin was nice to fill up my thermos with coffee. We sat down early and were served first for some fruit soup, quiche, grapes, banana nut muffin along with some orange juice, coffee, and water. Overall, I was wowed on the hospitality and uniqueness to the whole experience. I would love to come back and share with my friends and family. There is even a fire pit that people used after dark to stay warm and socialize. By the way, there was no WiFi or TV so it's nice to actually spend time together without all the distractions of the internet or cable.
