Five years ago while hiking in Scotland and staying with locals, my husband and I decided that one day we would like to own our own home where we could also host travelers and show the same kindness and hospitality that was shown to us. Fast forward to today and that dream has become a reality! We are so excited for this summer and getting to meet new travelers. If you're looking for a getaway to the North Shore, check us out on Airbnb: we are Caledonia House just north of Grand Marais! 🌲🏡🌊🍁🔥🍂 Photo credits to David @westonpics4him
Happy winter solstice! ❄️🌑🌲 It wasn't until moving to the North Shore that I developed a deep appreciation for winter. I love the frost and the quietness, the stargazing and the wolves howling through the frigid air. But that being said, there is something very relieving about knowing that this is as dark as it will get, and that it's all uphill from here. #northshoremn #northernwords #inlandsea #donorthmn #experiencethebiglake #writersofinstagram #minnesotaexposure #winter #solstice #lakesuperior
I could watch the icy waves roll in all day. There's something so mesmerizing about hearing the deep rumble of the water moving below the ice, and feeling the earth and sea freeze for winter. Did you also know that ice sings? On smaller lakes than Superior, the ice forming in early winter can create the most otherworldly sounds. I don't live on an inland lake but I would love to experience the sounds of ice forming next winter. #northshoremn #experiencethebiglake #northernwords #onlyinmn #grandmaraismn #wintermagic #december #lakesuperior #inlandsea #freshisbest
