About Thorson's Cottage

Thorson's Cottage is a cozy home with a spacious yard nestled on a gorgeous Lake Superior overlook near the town of Silver Bay, Minnesota. The cottage is pet-friendly and has a private Lake Superior shoreline! 

When you step into the cottage you will find yourself in an open layout living area. With the living room with a stone surround wood-burning fireplace and TV to your left and a dining room with seating for everyone on your right. Continue through the open archway and you will find the modern kitchen, perfect for preparing meals during your stay. The back of the home has a laundry room and half bathroom.

Thorson's Cottage has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Bedroom One has an attached bathroom and is located on the main level, while Bedrooms 2 and 3 are on the upper level and share a full bathroom. Both bedrooms on the upper level boast an amazing Lake Superior view.

Outside you will find a lake-facing deck with a BBQ grill and room to enjoy a meal outside. The spacious yard is perfect for hanging out and having some family time together and includes a fire pit. Take a stroll down to the private shoreline area and enjoy a beautiful stretch of the Lake Superior shoreline, the perfect place for agate hunting and rock skipping.

Thorson's Cottage is the perfect vacation destination for someone looking for some peace and quiet on a beautiful stretch of Lake Superior's shoreline. While some highway noise can be heard, you are outside town and can enjoy the otherwise peaceful and serene surroundings. Thorson's Cottage has only one visible neighbor.

Need more space? Thorson's Landing is located right next door (not visible from the home) and can accommodate six more guests.

Lake Access Note: Lake access is rated "difficult" at this property as it requires walking along a narrow walkway that can be slippery and tricky to navigate.This may be challenging for anyone with mobility issues or young children.

Property Line Notice: In the photos you will notice a darker green grass, this is the property for Thorson's Cottage. Most of the yard space runs to the right of the home (if you are looking at the lake).

This Home is Pet Friendly! Pets are welcome in this home with an additional fee. There is a 2 pet maximum.
