- Stunning Lake Superior View - Fully-Equipped Kitchen - Queen Size Bed - Perfect for SingleTravelers or Couples - Luxurious Cast Iron Tub - Convenient Home Office - Large Cedar Deck, Patio and Firepit - Beach Access Across the Road “We had such a lovely stay at Agua Norte. The loft itself is gorgeous, spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable and there were little touches everywhere that we loved. Great location, less than a 5 minute drive to downtown yet you feel far removed from town. The sauna was great before or after a day of exploring. And we can't begin to explain how beautiful sunrises and sunsets were from the balcony! If you're looking at this place, book now!” - Amy DISCLOSURE: 1. Upon booking, you'll receive our Rental Agreement link via Airbnb messages. You have 48 hours to review, agree, or cancel for a full refund. Keeping your reservation implies agreement. 2. Agua Norte Loft shares property and driveway with Agua Norte Cabin and Tranquilo Cabin. Please see photos for reference or reach out with any questions. ______________ Our property is located in a 20 acre parcel nested in between evergreen trees and gorgeous Lake Superior. The property is full of wildlife, birds, butterflies, wild flowers and wild berries. It is the perfect spot for a couple looking for a romantic and peaceful getaway, or a single person in search of quietude. → LOFT: The 20'x35' building was finished in 2019. Many of the white pine timbers that compose the frame were locally and sustainably logged, sawed and treated by us, the owners. It has 10 huge windows and a cathedral ceiling making this loft very airy, elegant and modern. It has been thoughtfully designed with one or 2 people in mind. → LIVING/DINING ROOM Enjoy a 180 degree view of Lake Superior from anywhere in this area: while sipping coffee on the couch or enjoying a meal at the dining table. The Article couch, soft wool rug and cozy throw blanket will make you snuggle up and enjoy the snow fall. → KITCHEN: The kitchen has full size appliances, doug fir cabinets and white quartz countertop with bar top height stools. It is a beautiful place to cook your meals and enjoy the lake view. It has a fridge and freezer, 4 burner electric stove with oven, coffee maker, blender and all needed cooking and baking utensils. → BATHROOM The bathroom is truly spa like: beautiful, spacious and airy. It has cedar wood paneling, a cast iron tub and a white vessel sink. → ENTERTAINMENT: There is a TV and DVD player in the bedroom. → SAUNA: Andrew finished our 10x14 sauna in 2019. It has cedar paneling and a wood burning stove, a nice size changing area, a large window in the sauna room overlooking Lake Superior and a nice porch to cool off and enjoy the view. While the sauna is shared among our three cabins, guests must reserve their sessions to ensure exclusive time and privacy. → OUTSIDE: Outside, the fire pit is only a few steps away and overlooks Lake Superior. The slate stone patio is wonderful for enjoying the beautiful sunsets and listening to the birds. Oh, and keep an eye out for all the bald eagles! The big tall spruce tree on the edge of the cliff overlooking the lake is the hangout area for these beautiful birds. It is basically guaranteed that you will see one or a couple hanging out on the three and being harassed by crows and seagulls.

Other Details to Note

DISCLOSURE: 1. We require that you read and agree with our Rental Agreement. A direct link to it will be sent to you via AirBnB messages shortly after your booking. You will have 48 hours starting at time of booking to read and agree or to cancel your reservation for a full refund. 2. Agua Norte Loft shares property with Agua Norte Cabin and Tranquilo Cabin. Closeness to nature and solitude are a couple of the reasons why our guests choose to visit Agua Norte and we ask that you respect quiet hours and our other guests' privacy. When you look out the window towards the Lake, you will see the Agua Norte Cabin. Please see photos for reference or reach out with questions. 3. All guests must fill out a registry form upon check-in complying with MN STATUTE 2018​ 327.10​. A link to this form will be sent to you on your welcome message shortly after your booking is confirmed. 4. Our driveway is steep and can be icy and slippery during cold months. A 4/AWD vehicle is highly recommended and in the event that you can't make it up the driveway, you are fully responsible to remove your vehicle and free up the driveway immediately. 5. Agua Norte Loft is on the second floor. The first floor is a garage used for personal storage and a utility and laundry room used by our cleaning team on cleaning days during scheduled turnover hours: 9AM to 5PM. These areas are private and locked and not to be accessed by Guests. The Loft has a private entrance on the opposite side of the building and it is completely separated from the garage and utility area. Please see photos for reference or reach out with any questions. 6. Agua Norte is also our home. We do reserve the right to work, maintain and enjoy our property. We lead very busy lives, especially in the Summer and we are in and out of the property often. 7. The Northwoods is full of wildlife and bugs. Please be respectful of the animals you will see on the property. Spring and Summer are heavy bug seasons and you will have to deal with mosquitos, occasional spiders and cluster flies. We do what we can to minimize flies around the building during fly season, but some years are worse than others and they may come regardless of our efforts.

Wanted a cozy getaway with my partner and that’s exactly what I got! Loved the sauna and the surrounding nature. Comfortable bed with a TV was perfect for movie nights. Under 10 minute drive to Grand Marais which still has my favorite places open even in the wintertime! So many great hiking areas nearby as well. We stayed at the Loft and the views were incredible. Would definitely visit again! :)

We had such an amazing time staying at Agua Norte in the Loft! Highly recommend staying here. It’s just a short drive into Grand Marais but secluded enough to enjoy the peaceful quiet and stunning views of Lake Superior.
