What guests think

Travellers describe Endion Station Inn by Heirloom Boutique Collection as a historic, characterful stay with an excellent Lakewalk location in Canal Park, offering walkability, lake views, cozy rooms, and a patio with fire pit plus a small outdoor sauna.

Several mention quiet stays despite the central setting. However, self-check-in with multiple codes and no on-site staff can be confusing, and communication or maintenance responses vary; some report housekeeping lapses, musty odors, temperature-control issues, and sliding bathroom doors that lack privacy. Expect a unique, self-serve boutique stay best for travelers prioritizing character and location over full-service amenities.

A unique place to stay in an ideal location. Extremely clean, new, and well maintained. Quiet. Beautiful views. EV chargers just outside. Within walking distance to great restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and shopping. Lake Superior and wonderful rock beach in front of inn. Nice full deck with fire pit. Outdoor sauna feels fantastic when Duluth gets chilly at night. Very comfortable stay. We'll be back!

Our room had a beautiful view overlooking Lake Superior. The hotel has a wonderful patio with lots of tables and chairs and a fireplace. We had everything we needed in the room. It is a cozy and comfortable space so fitting for the location. We parked our car and was able to walk most everywhere we wanted to go. We would stay again if ever back in that area.

Kind of weird that you have to pay $25/hr to come early - especially when no one was there. Also a bit of a problem that some homeless guys spend the day in front of the place (wouldn't want to use the sauna which is outside). But the location is fantastic. Room 5 is on the 2nd floor and it has a balcony with view of the lake - great spot. Reserved parking spots are extremely helpful - since we couldn't get in early, we parked in the reserved spot and walked to a museum. Endion is connected with Fitgers which is a short walk - two coupons for a free beer came with the room which was nice since we walked there for dinner. A bit of a problem with loud tailpipe and thumping stereo but it didn't keep me up. Overall a great place.

Absolutely loved our stay — we’ve definitely found our new go-to place in Duluth! The outdoor fireplace was such a relaxing touch. I spent time sitting outside with my book, people-watching, and soaking in the peaceful sounds of the waves from Lake Superior. The location couldn’t have been more perfect — just steps from everything in Canal Park. We didn’t have to move our car once, which was a huge bonus. Can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Its an ok stay, however the smell inside the building and room is the smell of old, or musty smell. The stairway and hall is cluttered like I would expect in motel, or old apartment building. If I was just needing a place to stay for the night by myself, I'd maybe book again. However for a weekend get away, for the price, I would likely look elsewhere.

Great place and the location can't be beat. The room was spotless, I loved the nespresso machine,the bed was super comfortable and it was nice to be able to sit outside and relax on the patio. It was however, a little weird to wake up Saturday morning to a yoga class going on right outside our window. I suggest definitely bringing an eyemask as the blinds do NOT shut out the light. I also wish the rooms had some cutlery and more glasses. The nightly texts reminding us of quiet time also felt a bit instrusive. All in all, however, it was a great place to stay.

Room 5 was spacious with a great view from the balcony. Unfortunately the sauna housed a homeless person due to a broken lock. The sauna was also littered with leaves and paper. Didn’t seem to get real hot. The lock on our room also stopped working. We contacted the owners but nothing was done. Our room was left unlocked while we went out to explore. Disappointing!

I expected more out of this hotel. Room was just ok. Garbage was still in the bin in the room from previous guests. I checked in with no problem since I got the email with instructions a week prior. Need it to enter with all codes on the door as no one at the property. I called next morning to complain about not draining sink. No fix for 3 days I stayed. I had to come up with my own solution. Area is great to walk around.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Endion Station. It is a very neat old building and the location is right on the lake with easy access to the Lakewalk and all the restaurants and shopping that Canal Park offers. Megan was a very helpful host and arrived within minutes to fix the keyless entry mechanism, which simply needed a new battery. We would definitely stay here again.

It was a super cute room, we had room four. In a great location, walkable to lots of great restaurants and bars and coffee. My only complaint is a check-in was so late at 4 PM and checkout was early at 10 AM. And they were looking for an up charge to extend either.

On our 4 hour drive to Duluth we received a call that they were double booked and didn’t have availability for us. They attempted to find us another place to stay and were willing to pay the difference up to $150-200 but options were limited on short notice and not in Canal Park like we specifically chose. We ended up finding our own alternative after a lot of last minute stress.

Enjoyed our stay in room #5 with view of lift bridge from window. It requires carrying luggage up a floor. Location is perfect on lake path with a short walk to canal drive for shops and food plus seeing the ship/lift bridge in action. We appreciate the staff allowing us to use parking space a few hours past check out to enjoy the location.
