About this venue

With three beautiful and unique mansions in the heart of Duluth, there are so many possibilities! We offer options from elegant elopement packages to our remarkable full mansion rental package. We are here to provide you with the perfect space and help guide you through this special time in your lives. Each of the mansions were built at the start of the 20th century by some of Duluth’s most prominent community members and have been tastefully updated for modern conveniences while honoring their history. Host your Bridal Shower at The Salyards Mansion, a beautiful Dutch Colonial situated on 2 sprawling acres. The grand brick GG Barnum Mansion with it’s 3 season porch is an ideal location for your Rehearsal Dinner with its 40 person harvest dinner table. And the crown jewel of them all, the opulent Cotton Mansion, an Italian Renaissance style mansion, this is the perfect location for you to be surrounded by your loved ones as you say “I do”.

GG Barnum

Tucked away you find this estate peacefully sitting along Oregon Creek in the middle of Duluth’s Congdon neighborhood

In 1910, General Mills co-founder and millionaire grain baron, George G. Barnum built his home large enough to showcase his art collection and accommodate guests. This jaw-dropping 9,000 square-foot property offers the privacy of a quiet, dead-end drive that concludes at the banks of the creek. Immerse yourself in tranquility as you come up the drive surrounded by the professionally landscaped lot, filled with hardwood trees and gorgeous gardens. This home has a way of feeling cozy and approachable, while still offering accommodations for all of your family and friends.
