We invite you to come and experience our Lake Superior vacation home for your "North Shore Getaway"!   Our home is a  upscale, well-appointed town home nestled right on Lake Superior's Edge!  It boasts a breathtaking view of the largest fresh water lake in the world!  

Come and experience the many moods of Lake Superior.  You will unwind watching and soaking in the soothing sounds of the waves crashing on the rocks right in front of our home.  We are perched on a 17 foot rocky ridge of the waters edge.  The foliage is low enough to appreciate the full impact and beauty of the lake, and in the winter the foliage becomes a brilliant crystallized ice city from the after math of massive waves that spray our shoreline.  

We are part of, a small 26 home, Windsong Cottage community that are enveloped down in a beautiful valley off Highway 61, a quarter mile from the charming town of Beaver Bay, MN.  We are only 5 minutes from Split Rock Lighthouse which is the most photographed lighthouse in the nation.  We are 7 minutes from Minnesota's  premier Tettegouche State Park with the highest inland waterfalls in Minnesota.  We are also on what National Geographic Backpacker once listed as the most scenic 39 mile stretch on Minnesota's Lake Superior shoreline.  

As you drive down into the protected valley of the Windsong Cottages, you experience the peaceful community with Lake Superior as the back drop, glistening on a sunny day! You immediately notice these town homes are up-scale, hand crafted and aesthetically landscaped ---- you feel you are in for one nice vacation experience!  We invite you to come!

FANTASTIC 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.
