African Violets at The Firelight Inn on Oregon Creek Bed and Breakfast

April 28, 2011 – 1:22 am

It may be snowing outside today but the African Violets at The Firelight Inn on Oregon Creek Bed and Breakfast are healthy and thriving. We have over 25 plants that enjoy the sunlight streaming in the dining room windows and 24 hour light from various table lamps.

We have been enjoying African Violets for over thirty years when Joy’s Mom gave her her first African Violet plant. During the winter months this year we grew new violets from leaves of overgrown plants. We’re confident that by summer they will be blooming in colors of pink, purple and white. The picture shows the new violets as they have become beautiful plants that will be placed around The Firelight Inn.

What are you celebrating in your life today? We would love to be part of your vacation, romantic getaway, anniversary, birthday or honeymoon. Give us a call and make your reservations today! Mention this blog and we’ll place fresh flowers in your suite with your weekend stay!

Amazing Guests at The Firelight Inn Duluth MN Bed and Breakfast

January 10, 2011 – 9:05 pm

The best thing about our jobs as Innkeepers of The Firelight Inn Duluth MN Bed and Breakfast is meeting amazing people from all over the world. Just last week, we hosted guests from Tanzania, East Africa. Guests this past weekend tried The Firelight Inn for their first bed and breakfast experience and, of course, returning guests were a part of our weekend too.

Phil and Vonna were guests of ours this last weekend and they stayed in our Isle Royale Suite traveling from Savage, Minnesota. They had a great time on the Timber Twister at Spirit Mountain on Saturday and even took a video of their ride down the hill. They enjoyed snowshoeing at Hartley Park and then returned for a warm bubble bath in the jacuzzi across from the fireplace in the Isle Royale Suite.

Upon checking out, Vonna expressed what a good time they had and how grateful she was to be with us since only a few years ago she was suffering from Multiple Sclerosis and was confined to a wheelchair. She went on to tell us about God healing her from her sickness and restoring her body. She now works as a Christian Family Counselor. The have a website walamn.com where they tell the story of his illness and her restoration. We are blessed to have met these folks and look forward to meeting and greeting more people who share their life with us.

Many of our guests know the little sign that is under each bed. Today as I was cleaning the Isle Royale Suite a little sign was sitting right next to ours. Thanks Vonna and Phil–you made my day!

This weekend we are treating guests to a Chicken Wild Rice soup supper with fresh bread on the evening they arrive and champagne and chocolates on the second evening. We still have a couple suites left so make your plans to be with us January 14-15-16, 2011.

Holiday decorating has begun at The Firelight Inn Duluth Bed and Breakfast

November 20, 2010 – 3:40 am

The holiday decorating is in full speed at The Firelight Inn Duluth Bed and Breakfast. The Firelight room is adorned in its “holiday gold”. The garland on the stairway took over three hours to complete with lights, garland, gold pine cones, gold leaves and more placed just in the right places. The gold tree and mantel took another couple hours and in the evening light the rooms just glows!

The dining room is beautiful in shades of pink and even the chandelier is decorated with garland, pink Christmas balls and silk flowers. The pearl scarves over the windows and on the mantel add a very soft and festive feeling.

The formal living room will be red with holly berries over the windows and a 9 foot tree of red balls, garlands, flowers, red ornaments and more!

Snowmen and candy canes are the themes of the front porch holiday decorations. The aroma of fresh greens in the front porch comes from a hand made wreath by Joy this week. On your holiday visit be sure to check out the wreath’s real bird nest.

Each suite at The Firelight Inn is also adorned with silk flowers, garlands, ribbons, holiday quilts, and more surprises. Make your reservation now to enjoy the mansion in its holiday splendor. We hope to see you on your next trip to Duluth!
