Das Heritage Cottage liegt direkt am See am Baker Point und ist ein Stück Geschichte. Dieses kürzlich renovierte 200 Jahre alte Wahrzeichen ist das älteste Häuschen am See. Die Hauptkabine wurde um 1800 gebaut und um 1860 hinter Pferden über den zugefrorenen See gezogen und auf den Hügel am Baker Point mit Blick auf den See gestellt. Eingebettet in die Kiefern wählten die Holzfäller diesen schönen Ort aus gutem Grund. Das Kapitänsquartier verfügt über ein Queensize-Bett und ein Tagesbett für ein Kind. Das Gemeinschaftszimmer ist ein großes Zimmer mit 2 Queensize-Betten und 2 Einzelbetten. Beinhaltet einen 48 Zoll Smart HDTV und Wifi. Beinhaltet auch die nicht ausschließliche Nutzung der Feuerstelle, des Docks, des Fischerboots, des Paddelboots, der 2 Kajaks und des Kanus, die sich das ebenfalls am Baker Point gelegene Eagles Nest teilt. Das Kulturerbe nutzt vorrangig Kanus und Kajaks, und Eagles Nest nutzt vorrangig Fischerboote und Paddelboote.
Heritage ist nicht das ganze Jahr über zu Hause und eignet sich nur zum Leben, bevor die Temperatur sinkt. Bei kaltem Wetter besuchen Sie bitte Eagles Nest.
Sehr ruhig und doch nur 3 km auf der Straße und 2 km mit dem Boot zu Restaurants, Tavernen, Dairy Queen, Coffee Shop, Lebensmittelgeschäften, Tankstelle, Bootsanlegestelle und öffentlichem Strand mit Spielplatz.

BEAUTIFUL OLD COTTAGE!

This is actually my fifth stay at Heritage, but my first review. I just love this place. It's just as advertised in the description, 200 years of charm updated with all the comforts of home. It has perfect views, looking through the pines, above a gorgeous lake. Being my fifth stay I feel I’m almost an expert. The history of Heritage is that the living room section was built more than 200 years ago and pulled across the ice by horses and placed at the perfect spot when there was only this cabin on this sunset side of the lake. The original hardwood floors are warped and the stairs are steep, but the charm is throughout. The beds and linens are new and comfortable. The kitchen is complete for any kind of cooking and baking. The place is clean and obviously cared for. Although icy on this trip, in warmer weather this has been the perfect place for my young son to swim safely as the water is only waist deep for a long ways out on Baker Point. Pretty much every day it's the best place to take in the stunning sunsets. I will be back, hopefully every year. The historical ambience of this place alone makes it a perfect vacation destination.

Fyi

Rustic… aka needs some improvement. If you have young kids, not the best place. Location on the lake is great, neighborhood is nice. Dock and local beach are nice. Clean sheets, linens, and bathroom. Kayaks were nice. Needs improvement: many lights don’t work well, be prepared for mice, lots of bugs and spiders, few plug ins without covers. No air conditioner, but fans made it work. Appliances are available for cooking. There is outdoor furniture at the fire pit, few are broken.

Dead mouse and mouse droppings

This was the worst experience we’ve ever had at a vacation rental and we have rented all over. When we arrived, the upstairs smelled so terrible. We discovered a dead mouse on the rug, and it was not fresh. There were mouse droppings throughout the house. There was mouse poison on the kitchen floor just in sight and reach of our toddler. It was not ok. Overall, the rest of the cottage was dirty. The linens and towels did appear clean. We were very disappointed to come back to visit our hometown area to be treated so poorly by the host and VRBO. My uncle even made the signs for the owner for the property. We contacted the host and then VRBO about the stench and dead rodent the first day and talked to customer service every day of our stay thereafter to receive a refund and find a habitable place to stay for our vacation. The host offered to send housekeeping the next day. If it had been indicated in the listing that there was a rodent infestation and poison out, we would never have booked. Needless to say, we were unable to stay at this location and enjoy our vacation.

Great stay!

Heritage House is charming and historic (yes, the floors are uneven), and it won’t take you long to fall under it’s spell. The beds are very comfortable with nicely appointed bed linens. My children loved bunking together in the upstairs bed room with lake views. The kitchen and bathroom are fully stocked (dishes/pots/pans/etc. and plush towels/soap/shampoo/conditioner), and even the water pressure is great. The lake is crystal clear and is great for swimming. The property has a well-maintained canoe and kayaks with life jackets. (We brought our own infant and children life jackets). Bring warm pajamas for chilly evenings (although heaters and fans are provided), beach towels, and an eye mask if you want to sleep in. Better yet, enjoy your coffee at the end of the dock at dawn. It’s magical. Finally, Todd is super responsive and helpful…thank you for a great stay!

A cozy family getaway

We love Lake Nebagamon! It has plenty for our little family and when we want something more Superior/Duluth is not far away. Love all the water-craft included with this property and the house itself is charming and very well organized. Lots of little touches to make the stay very easy.

Quiet spot on the lake

Our family just spent the week at Heritage Point, and it was wonderful! The house is old, and very charming, but drafty at night. Bring warm pajamas! It was a quiet spot on a beautiful lake. Nice to have the sandbar just off of the dock for the kids to play! Dog friendly as well! Look forward to visiting again!

Perfect location

Loved the provided boats, beds were comfy, and the house was convenient to town by water or car. The house was charming, although the floors and doors were wonky, and the stairs up to the loft were very steep. Not a negative, but just know what to expect.

rustic Northwoods gem

We absolutely loved our stay at the Heritage Cottage! The photos do not do it justice - it's a gorgeous historic property complete with all the rustic quirks you'd expect from a house that is quite old, which is exactly what we were looking for but might not be everyone's choice (we'd much rather stay in a place with character than a cookie-cutter hotel). A few things of note that I didn't notice in other reviews: the beds are lovely and comfortable, there is a charming collection of kitschy mugs for your morning coffee, the stairs to the lofted bedroom are quite steep and shallow, you should expect to be hot/cold based on the temperature outside, there's a friendly outdoor cat who likes to prowl around looking for chipmunks, and there are very few curtains on any windows so you can enjoy views of the lake/woods and you should also be ready to wake up with the sun. The lake is absolutely beautiful and the area off the dock is perfect for swimming in (not weedy at all), though we did also use and enjoy the public beach. We canoed around the lake and got very close to two courting/mating loons, which was pretty incredible to see. It was a great location for birdwatching in general. The Eagle's Nest was occupied during our stay, but we never felt too close to anyone and had no issues with the sharing of the swing/firepit/dock/boats - we definitely felt secluded even with those curtain-less windows. We'd highly recommend spending a day (or part of it) hiking at Amnicon Falls - just gorgeous! - and picking up pizza from Round Up North which is only a 15 minute drive away in Brule. So glad we stayed here! A great vacation spot for our family.

Beautiful historic cabin

The Heritage cabin provided a unique and comfortable base for exploring the local hiking trails and beaches. The dock was perfect for swimming and the kayaks and canoe provided hours of fun for the kids. We loved our time there, and would recommend to anyone, especially if you need to keep kids busy while you relax with a book

Great spot for a family

The description was very accurate, but I don't think it took enough credit for the excellent swimming area. That is at the top of our young family's wish list when we pick our vacation spot. The kids spent hours jumping off the dock. There is a ladder at the end and there is lots of firm sandy area for wading or floating. There are a lot of road miles for safe biking too. This lake didn't seem to be a very great fishing lake which we were ok with because of the swimming, but the Brule river is very close and has excellent fishing options that we took advantage of every early morning. We also kayaked the Brule one full day. The town is a gem as well. Even though we had great swimming at the cabin we also checked out the public beach which is the nicest I've seen.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Heritage Cottage. The proximity to the lake was perfect and we appreciated being able to use the paddle boat and kayaks, especially.

We had a great stay in this charming old house. The furnishings and decor are also charming and welcoming.

Wonderful cabin and great location!

The cabin is just as described in the listing. Well stocked kitchen and towels! It is beautifully maintained and decorated. The lake was perfect; big enough for fishing but also great for paddling. We had a ton of fun with the boats which were well maintained and easily accessible. Paddling to town was super quick (5 minutes) and had restaurants, DQ, grocery, and a nice public beach. Although, other then the beach for my three boys, we didn't utilize the town because the cabin and location were so amazing. Fabulous fire pit and picnic area, swing over looking the lake, quiet dock in the evening. Nice yard on the side of the cabin for yard games, etc. Would return in a heartbeat!

The Perfect Vacation

The Heritage cottage is so cute. I'm told it's over 200 years old but it is bright and charming. Everything was put together perfectly, from the new bedding and mattresses to the complete kitchen. They told us to just show up with food and clothing and they were right. We loved our stay. Todd and Barby really really thought of everything and Todd was on top of all of our correspondence right away and had answers to all our questions. Beautiful place on a beautiful lake. We will be back.

Great historic property!

The home and the story behind it were a real treat for our history-loving family! Sure, the floor slants and the wiring is a bit wonky, but knowing that 150 years of history surrounds you far outweighs any need for a perfectly horizontal foundation. The home is beautifully decorated and everything we needed for our four night stay was included. My children enjoyed the Shoot the Moon game and the gaming table where we played many rounds of their favorite card games. Having wifi and a smart tv was appreciated when the weather unfortunately turned to storms and rain. We spent the good weather days taking easy and quick day trips to Duluth (40 min) and Bayfield (60 min). We were not able to enjoy Lake Nebagamon, however, but would love to come back and take the kayaks for a spin sometime. We enjoyed our time at Heritage House and thank Todd for providing a great place for us to stay in this lovely area.

Heritage Cottage was comfortable and adaptable

We enjoyed our 12 day stay at Heritage Cottage. While it wouldn't qualify as "luxurious," it served our needs well. We hosted our daughter's family including her husband and three children and enjoyed visits from our son (who lives minutes away) and his children as well as our son from the Twin Cities area and his wife. Lake Nebagamon is great and the nearby public beach received lots of use. We appreciated many of the features including the smart tv, really comfortable bedding, high quality linens and the kitchen which was well equipped with ample supplies of flat ware and Calphalon cookware. Having kayaks, a motorized fishing boat and paddle boat available was a definite plus. The laundry facilities were also good and certainly made life easier. When we experienced one minor problem both Todd and Melanie, his housekeeper, responded quickly and graciously. We're glad we chose Heritage Cottage and certainly found it to be an excellent value.

Cozy, charming, and FUN!

Heritage Lake Front Cottage was wonderful!! The cottage decor was charming and very well done!! The sheets and towels rivaled those of a Four Seasons luxury hotel. The kitchen could use a little more counter space and a dishwasher, but now I'm nitpicking! The (HUGE)lake is gin-clear clean and we swam and boated every day! Being directly across from town made it a fun daily trip to get a DQ or coffee. All in all it was a charming experience. We played golf every day at the three courses close by - Poplar was the best and worth the 15 minute extra drive. Fishing was down according to the locals - probably a weather pattern they explained. However we drive to the Brule River Trout Hatchery. There we saw tens of thousands of trout from newly hatched fry to dozens of the old guard mega trout in the upper run. The DNR employee was there and told us all about trout and gave us food to feed them!

Über den Gastgeber

Zu Gast bei Todd Baker

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

This is the oldest cabin on the lake. The lumberjacks choose this beautiful spot among the pines for good reason. More than a 150 years ago it was pulled across the ice during the winter and placed on this property. Even the lumber jacks new that this was the best property on the lake. When you start using the lake you will see why. Baker Point has a sand bar less than 4 feet deep which runs several hundred feet straight out from shore. On both sides of this point there are gradual drop-offs. This makes for the perfect spot for fishing as well as swimming and learning to ski for young children.
