About this rental

About This Rental

Seagull House is a 2,363-square-foot Lake Superior home near Grand Marais on Minnesota’s North Shore, offering three bedrooms and three full bathrooms for up to six guests. The residence was designed and built by John Howe, who worked for more than 25 years as Frank Lloyd Wright’s chief draftsman at Taliesin. Its Prairie-style design is reflected in the home’s angled rooms, low-pitched roofline, and open interior spaces, with furnishings and decor selected to align with the original design intent.

The setting includes a private ledge rock shoreline and lake access described as easy to moderate, with shorelines noted as ever changing. Large windows are used to frame views of Lake Superior, and a deck or patio may be available with seasonal furnishings. Campfires on the beach are permitted.

Sleeping arrangements are straightforward: one queen bedroom is on the main level, and two queen bedrooms are on the walk-out lower level. Bathrooms include a shower/tub on the main level and two showers on the walk-out lower level. The home includes a kitchen with dishes, pots, and flatware provided, along with conveniences such as a dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, washer/dryer, towels/linens, internet access, and television.

For outdoor cooking, the property provides both gas and charcoal grills. A wood-burning fireplace supports winter stays, and 4WD/AWD is recommended in winter conditions. The garage has a 50-amp NEMA 14-50 outlet that can permit high-rate EV charging (no EVSE provided). For security, a Ring doorbell is installed at the front door and a motion-activated camera is positioned over the back door; they are intended to monitor the home when not occupied.

Cascade Vacation Rentals is pleased to once again offer this unique example of American architecture located on the wild shores of Lake Superior just outside Grand Marais, Minnesota. Seagull House has a strong connection to the most famous American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, and is an excellent example of Prairie architecture, for which Mr. Wright is known. John Howe, the architect of Seagull House, was Mr. Wright's chief draftsman at Taliesin for more than 25 years and designed and built this home, which is now available to rent as part of your North Shore experience. This 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom home is located a short drive up the shore of Lake Superior from the quaint lakeside town of Grand Marais. The unique angled rooms, low-pitched roof, and open interior spaces in this home are staples of the Frank Lloyd Wright prairie-style architecture that John Howe helped make famous back in the 1940s and 50s. Each room is carefully constructed and designed so that nothing is there by accident. Every piece of furniture, artwork, and even the knickknacks have been selected to match the design elements intended for this space. Because of this, many pieces in this home hold great value and it is why we do not recommend this property for families with young children. The unique architecture isn't all this home has to offer! Nestled on a beautiful plot of land against the shores of Lake Superior, you will get to enjoy a private ledge rock shoreline with easy to moderate access so you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the Big Lake. There is a gas and charcoal grill so cooking a meal outside in the warm summer months won't be an issue no matter what your grilling preference is. On cold winter nights, you can curl up in front of the wood-burning fireplace and enjoy a book on John Howe and Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture while sitting in one of their homes! Large windows take advantage of the Lake Superior views and the well-equipped kitchen allows you to make a delicious home-cooked meal. You'll feel right at home at Seagull House. EV Charger Port: The garage is equipped with a 50-amp NEMA 14-50 outlet that can permit high-rate electric vehicle charging. No EVSE is provided. Camera Warning: There is a Ring doorbell on the front door to monitor the home when not occupied. Cameras are not used to monitor guests while in the home. There is also a motion-activated security camera over the back door intended for monitoring the home when not occupied.

Miles of hiking, biking, snowmobiling, and cross-country ski trails are just a short drive away. Several state parks are also easy to access from this home. Or head on into Grand Marais and do some shopping at the unique ma and pa shops that make the area so unique. No chain stores here! The restaurants are also one of a kind! You could easily spend a month at Seagull House and still find a new spot to explore and enjoy. Cascade Vacation Rentals requires a Rental Agreement to be filled out

We went up to enjoy a late fall colors long weekend with the promise of pretty decent weather. While the farmers almanac forecast for that weekend didn't prove accurate our stay at the Seagull house was extremely delightful. The heaters and fireplace keep everything toasty and we were able to get a close up view of lake superior's fury at its finest!!! I mentioned to my wife that the Seagull house is my happy place. It is very artfully designed and appointed, remote for those seeking a private getaway experience, and just plain relaxing. I just wish I would have stuck with my piano lessons as a young child so I would have been able to play something decent on the grand piano.
