This place was the perfect getaway location. It was so cool to stay in a beautiful, historic place like this. We spent so much time out on the hidden gem of a balcony! We will absolutely be staying here again in the future :)

So much nicer than staying at a chain motel! We needed a few things the evening we checked in(extension cords,extra lamps to read by and a toaster) and the mgmt co. responded quickily and brought everything over w/in the hour! Great service,comfy beds,would stay on the 3rd flr again!!

Stayed in the Ballroom Suite of Salyards Mansion. Absolutely wonderful stay! The ballroom suite encompasses the entire top floor of the home and has two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a spacious living room with lots of furniture, a fireplace, and an extra bed. There’s even an outdoor deck off of the kitchen! Very clean, well stocked, and communication was great! We will definitely stay here again!

We were in town to play golf, and the mansion was very close to the golf course. The facilities were as promised, and it felt like being at home.

The four of us have been to Duluth several times for a concert and usually stay in a hotel. We loved having this beautiful space to relax in after our daily adventures! Great location! Very nice, quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the deck, sauna and views of the lake. There was a little deer family napping in the yard. We will be staying here again in the future!

We are in town to play at a golf tournament and this was a location that was only a mile and a half from the golf course. It was comfortable clean and felt like home.

Lots of room, bed was comfortable, pillows were not as soft as I would have liked. Netflix at the location. Plenty of off-street parking.

The Ballroom Suite was absolutely fabulous & larger than we thought. Each room was comfy: the bedrooms were large; the bathroom had a shower & a wonderfully deep claw foot tub; the deck was perfect & had a great view of the best lake...Lake Superior; the bkfst pastries were delish. After days of site seeing it was a great place to kick off our shoes & relax. Also loved the books about the history of Duluth. Thank you for that. We will be back.

So thankful that we were able to experience a few nights in this mansion. The upstairs was a delight with the ability to have a kitchen and have snacks and drinks. We didn’t make any meals but the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pots and pans. Plenty of space hang out for us. The outdoor patio was really nice but note that the only way out there is through a tall narrow window in the kitchen. That was totally fine for our family but may be an issue for others. We would definitely return to this location if heading back to Duluth for a visit.

The property itself was beautiful, impressive, and very well-kept. The coffee and patisserie on the main floor were very good and the private parking area had 2 charging stations. The grounds are nicely taken care of and everything was very clean. The quality of the pillows and bedding was great! Unfortunately, there were a few irritants: the entire light bar over the bathroom sink didn't work, and the batteries in several remote-only handhelds were drained including the actual door to the 3rd level quarters which was very frustrating and noisy upon many attempts to unlock. The unintuitive remote controls for the HVAC units caused some confusion and there were no instructions to properly access them. The bedroom fireplace gas had been shut off and plugging and unplugging the heater for the rooftop patio was dangerous. I need to end this review by saying the management was very communicative, they sent maintenance immediately (who fixed and set right everything he could within about 45 minutes very late at night) and were very polite, kind, and helpful. Despite these few caveats, I'd be thrilled to stay here again.

My sisters and I rented the ballroom suite for a short visit to Duluth. The heirloom agency was very responsive to messaging and solved all our concerns quickly. As we drove up, we noticed that the appearance of the mansion was not as depicted in the listing. It is a bit rundown and the landscape was dry, with many plants dead or needing a trim. The gazebo and other outside areas were drab compared to the pictures online. We had issues with several things in our unit, but all were taken care of by Heirloom properties quickly. They did also comp us one night stay for our troubles, which was a pleasant surprise. The pictures of the inside of ballroom suite were accurate! The suite itself is adorable and clean. The staff at Heirloom properties was extremely pleasant, helpful, and professional.

We enjoyed the residence very much. Loved the charm and history. We stayed in the Ballroom Suite and enjoyed mornings and evenings on the rooftop patio. Plenty of space for everyone. Very clean and comfortable. Great areas to be together and the area was quiet yet close to many Duluth attractions. Thank you for sharing it with us!

My college student daughter had surgery and I traveled up to Duluth to help with her recovery. This home offered a cozy, quiet place for us to rest and recover. It felt like home. We had beautiful weather to sit outside in the sun and read and rest. We enjoyed having Hulu and Netflix to watch a variety of shows during our stay. The room was so spacious and accommodating for our needs. And so very clean! No complaints; however if you don’t want to climb stairs the Ballroom Suite is not for you. We would have loved to have a DVD player for movies that we had. Also a separate recycling bin would have been useful. We used a separate bag so it wasn’t a big deal but maybe for future reservations. And further instructions on temperature control, if that is possible in this suite, would have been great. But we sat by the fire place a lot in the evening. I would stay here again anytime. The morning scones and muffins were really great! Thanks for a great extended stay with my daughter in Duluth!

This is a stunning property! Surprises at every turn. The beds are comfy but the pillows a bit stiff. The leather couch was so comfortable it could have been slept on. The claw foot tub was amazing. The secret balcony offered a beautiful view of Lake Superior!

The grounds were beautiful-loved sitting on the 3rd floor porch and looking out to the lake. Also enjoyed sitting out in front of the house on the patio. Peaceful neighborhood, filled with fall colors. Lovely stay.
