About this house rental
The Jenswold House | Historic Lake Superior Retreat
Welcome to the Jenswold House, a beautifully preserved Queen Anne Victorian perched along the shores of Lake Superior. With its timeless character, thoughtful updates, and sweeping views of the water, this home offers a stay that feels both special and deeply relaxing—whether you’re here for a quiet getaway, time with family, or a memorable North Shore visit with friends.
The home features four bedrooms designed to comfortably accommodate families and groups, including a spacious primary bedroom that’s especially well suited for couples looking for a quieter retreat within the home. Three bedrooms are located upstairs along with two full bathrooms, while a fourth bedroom on the main level offers additional flexibility for group stays. A main-level powder room adds extra comfort for everyone.
One of the upstairs bathrooms is especially spacious and inviting, featuring a classic clawfoot soaking tub and a two-person indoor electric sauna—a perfect place to unwind after a day along the lake, on the trails, or exploring Duluth in any season.
The spacious kitchen makes it easy to cook and gather together, and the large dining room comfortably seats everyone around one table—perfect for shared meals, celebrations, or slow mornings before heading out to explore Duluth and the North Shore.
One of the home’s most loved spaces is the lakefront porch overlooking Lake Superior. With sweeping water views and a cozy Jøtul gas fireplace stove, it’s a favorite place to start the day with coffee, watch weather roll across the lake, or wind down in the evening as the light fades over the water.
Inside, you’ll find generous gathering spaces, historic details, and comfortable places to settle in and slow down. Large windows invite in natural light and glimpses of the lake throughout the day, while the home’s original charm creates a sense of warmth that’s hard to replicate. It’s the kind of place where mornings begin quietly with lake views and evenings end with conversation after a full day outdoors.
Whether you’re visiting for adventure along the North Shore, a cozy winter escape, or simply time together in a beautiful setting, the Jenswold House is a place to settle in, breathe deep, and make lasting memories by Lake Superior.

Our stay couldn’t have been better. The setup worked perfectly for our family, but more than that the home is simply beautiful. The four seasons room with the fireplace, the view, the sauna, all of it made for a very magical weekend and really was conducive for time spent together just relaxing. We will be back!

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful lake house! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed by the thoughtful touches — snacks, bottled water, and all the little amenities that made it feel extra special.My absolute favorite part was the sun room overlooking Lake Superior. The views were breathtaking and it quickly became a favorite morning coffee spot. The deck off the master bedroom was just as incredible — waking up to that lake view each day was something I won’t forget.The home itself is beautifully decorated — cozy, inviting, and perfectly set up. We stayed with our four kids (ages 2–15), and they had the best time skipping rocks on the beach and exploring the shoreline. The neighborhood felt very safe and was perfect for peaceful early morning walks.The host was incredibly kind and responsive, which made the entire experience seamless. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly getaway on Lake Superior!

Beautiful views and a lovely set up. Close enough to Canal Park to not be a big affair to get out and about, but far enough away to not feel overwhelmed by crowds.The signs around the house were a nice touch to tell a story about the house.
