A historic landmark in Duluth has been revitalized and repurposed into one of the city's newest luxury vacation rentals, offering breathtaking views of Lake Superior from every window on every floor.
Named after the Nordic God of water and seafaring, The Njord represents a collaboration between the father-son duo, Brian and Dillon Forcier. Brian Forcier, the owner of the prime property under his company Titanium Partners, embarked on the restoration project to breathe new life into the historic building.
The Njord features three private entrances leading to three distinct short-term rental units, each named after Norse mythology figures: Thor, Freya, and Odin. Thor, designed for families, offers spacious accommodations with a king-sized bed, pullout couch, fully furnished amenities, and a kitchen. Freya, aptly named after the goddess of romance, provides an intimate setting perfect for couples. Meanwhile, Odin, the God of heaven, boasts a luxurious master suite with a stunning bathroom.
Situated on the lower level of the original 1933 gas station building, Odin offers multiple sliding-glass doors leading out to a long deck overlooking the Lakewalk and beyond. For guests seeking a larger space, the entire building is available for rent, with doors that can connect to each individual room.
The Njord offers guests a unique blend of historic charm and modern luxury, with meticulously designed interiors and unparalleled views of Lake Superior. Whether guests choose Thor, Freya, or Odin, they are treated to an unforgettable experience that celebrates Duluth's rich heritage and natural beauty.
Prices for accommodations at The Njord vary depending on the season and day of the week, with rates starting at $275 for the lower-end unit on weekdays and reaching up to $696 for peak weekend nights in July. Additionally, guests are required to pay a cleaning fee to ensure the highest standards of cleanliness and comfort during their stay.
As The Njord emerges as one of Duluth's premier vacation rental destinations, it sets a new standard for luxury accommodations in the area. With its unique blend of history, comfort, and stunning views, The Njord invites guests to experience the best of Duluth in style and sophistication.
