About Bryan & Gina
Bryan & Gina
Bryan & Gina purchased this House in 2017
Why Bryan & Gina chose Endion
We began making regular visits to Duluth years ago and fell in love with the landscape, city and all there is to do here - from hiking, sailing, camping and skiing to simply enjoying the sounds of the waves and ships. Our kids fell in love with Duluth on our many adventures here over the years as well and now attend UMD. We knew that someday we would have to eventually call this place home. While maintaining our current home and this home in Duluth we are finally making it happen.
What makes this House unique
When staying at A Charles Weiss Home, the original woodwork throughout the home, along with the antique furniture and decor give you a sense that you have been transported back in time. If you have an old soul, this place is for you!

Beautiful home, great location!
Beautiful home, great location! Really enjoyed the space!
Perfect spot for our family
We stayed at the CW getting ready for my daughter's wedding this fall. Our parents, all four in their 80's, loved the character, and all the beautiful woodwork. Our grandson's loved staying in their first "mansion". Of course, they thought the jacuzzi tub was pretty cool too. There was plenty of room for our 10 family members, and the men in the wedding party came to dress and take photos just before the wedding. All the sports aps worked great on the smart TV, and you won't miss cable at all. Overall, it was the perfect spot for our family. After the wedding, being as emotional as I am, I am so happy that we have only ONE daughter to "give away".....
Beautiful house with a lot of character
Overall a great experience. It was very nice to have our own bathroom so we could all be ready at the same time. The house has plenty of space for large groups. Great location. Lot's of character. The only downside is the check-in and check-out time. With check in at 5:00 this makes it hard to make any dinner/evening plans. By the time we got in and unpacked/showered we didn't make it out until 8:00. However, Gina was very accommodating to let us do a late check out with since there were no other renters coming in after us. Many people inquired about the house after seeing pictures that we posted so hopefully that will bring business for Gina!
Wonderful place to stay in Duluth for a large group
13 of us High School Friends from all over the US came to Duluth and Stayed at this ACharles Weiss Historic Home for 3 nights! The price was great as was the location. Very clean and accommodated our large group! The weather was great so we took advantage of the large front porch! Needless to say, we were all very happy with the Weiss house!
Just As Expected
We found the A. Charles Weiss home just as described--historic and beautiful, as well as in a nice neighborhood. It is a step back in time to be appreciated! We were a group of 10 adults, all senior citizens, who had traveled a great distance from other parts of MN and other states. Street out front of the house is kind of busy so you will hear the traffic. Be sure to check out the Duluth parking rules as it affects the amount of vehicles you have to park there--especially if you need to park on the street. The parking spaces behind the house are cozy. The house is close to many Duluth attractions which helped make our stay very enjoyable. House is well supplied with everything you may need. Beds were comfortable --and even the pillows! We would have appreciated an earlier check-in time and hope that may be considered for future renters. We knew the check-in time prior to arrival so ended up with a very late dinner our first evening after all were settled in.
The owners are good to communicate with and checked in with us via text during our stay to make sure all was well. Gina is a great host.
Beautiful home with lots of space!
We celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary here. There were 9 adults and 2 children. We had lots of space and each family had their own bathroom! House was very clean, kitchen had everything we needed, and the pool table was an added bonus! Great place to stay with a large party.
Location
You are invited to experience a return to Victorian Duluth at the Historic A. Charles Weiss Home. This 1895 Victorian Colonial is filled with classic decor throughout and heavily adorned with woodwork. The A. Charles Weiss is a stately Victorian home located in Duluth, Minnesota. The Lakewalk, which leads to the charming Canal Park Area, is a short three blocks from the home's front porch.
Duluth is a vibrant city set on the shores of Lake Superior. Home to a busy port and wealth of industry because of its location on the lake, Duluth is also a popular vacation destination. There is beautiful scenery and loads of activities to keep everyone in the family entertained.
Lake Superior is the natural attraction of Duluth. There are many cruises that run throughout the year. You can enjoy lunch, dinner or just relax as you enjoy the view. The Edge is a giant Polynesian-themed water park filled with thrilling water slides and loads of splashy entertainment that even older and adult kids will enjoy. The Timber Twister is unique roller coaster ride that runs through the forest. Sharp hairpin bends and a 3,200-foot descent down the mountain make it a thrilling ride.
Lake Superior Zoo is set on 16 acres of rocky hills covered with tall pine trees. The Kingsbury Creek runs through the zoo, creating a wonderful natural environment in which to view the bears, lions and wide variety of animals. The Great Lakes Aquarium can be found on Duluth's waterfront. This incredible hands-on discovery center allows visitors insight into the underwater realm of the lakes. Daily shows have divers interacting and feeding fish in a giant water tank. There are more than 70 different species of fish, amphibians, mammals and birds housed at the aquarium.
Duluth has a rich cultural heritage and there are many museums, historic homes and estates that are open for public viewing. Historic railway tours make for a fun excursion for the whole family. Learn about the early pioneers, the history of the region, and enjoy the spectacular scenery. There is also an opportunity to spot birds and wildlife in the forest.
In the wintertime, the Spirit Mountain Recreation Area has 22 ski runs, a super pipe for snowboarders, and 22 miles of cross country skiing. A perfect place for both beginner and advanced skiers, the ski runs and lifts are well maintained and the resort is said to have some of the best skiing of the region.
