Train Car Retreat

This charming, one of a kind Duluth stay has history, vintage appeal, updated amenities, and one helluva story! 

If you are looking for a unique beach escape in Duluth, MN, this is it - and only a ½ mile walk to Canal Park, the Lift Bridge, restaurants, and attractions. It is the one and only Train Car stay in Duluth!!  It will delight history buffs, Harry Potter fans, couples, and families alike. 

Best of all, the Train Car Retreat is across the street from the best Public Beach Access on Park Point, with 7 miles of white sand beach, and shares the corner with a playground and picnic area.

This unique home started its life as a passenger car on Park Point and dates back to the 1920’s-30’s when the the road replaced the tracks.You can enjoy touches of original woodwork, windows, and hardware from the train car which makes up the living room and Sleeping Car bedroom. The Train Car Retreat is filled with vintage, and custom furniture, local art, and creatively restored train elements.

There is an updated, fully equipped kitchen addition with heated floors and patio access. A remodeled bathroom with heated floors and an enormous walk in shower. Upstairs, a master bedroom with king size custom made bed, and matching archway restoration creates privacy in the main level Sleeping Car, with a queen size, old-school murphy bed. All created by local craftsman Alan Jensen. 
This location gives you a chance to observe the “working harbor” with the Army Corps of Engineers, Coast Guard, shipping traffic, and the Bridge all contributing to the authentic soundscape of Duluth. Don’t be surprised to hear Revelry in the mornings - or Coast Guard announcements over the PA, or be treated to the Lake bound vessels saluting the Lift Bridge on its way out of Duluth’s safe harbor in the summer months. 

You are getting front row orchestra seats for Park Point life! During the busy summer boat traffic months, you will be what locals call "Bridged". This can take anywhere from 5-25 mins. Enjoy watching the big boats passing by! 

Train Car Retreat features ample amenities such as: bed and bath linens, a dishwasher, central heat, seasonal AC provided from mid May to mid October, WiFi, Netflix.
