Park Point Marina Inn
"Stayed here many times before then they got ridiculous with room costs. Was happy when I noticed they became reasonable so took advantage of it. Many don’t travel to Duluth because it’s become too expensive and often drive to Minneapolis instead."

Poplar River Condos
"The views were great from the room. There were plenty on dog waste stations around the property so I never had to walk too far for one. My only complaint is the lack of air conditioning but the cool weather and open windows cooled the room off just fine. I can't recommend this place enough"
