Is Hunter's Park, Duluth, Minnesota right for you?
Part of the Hunter's Park neighborhood guide. Back to the full guide.
You will love Hunter's Park if you want woods rather than water. This is the Duluth address where 660 acres of protected forest starts at the end of your block, where the houses have towers and porches and real lots, and where you can be at a trailhead, a university, or the Miller Hill shops inside ten minutes. It suits families who will use Hartley weekly, professionals commuting to the universities or the hospitals, and anyone who wants Congdon Park's architecture with more land and less money.
Look elsewhere if the lake is the reason you are moving to Duluth. There are no views, no frontage, and no walk to the Lakewalk from here, and no amount of tree canopy substitutes if water is what you came for. Look elsewhere if you want walkable errands, because there is no business block and the grocery is a drive. Look elsewhere if a longer, snowier winter than the shoreline sounds like a burden, or if you do not want the maintenance and tree budget that comes with a century-old house on a wooded lot.
If you like the architecture but want the lake and the creek, look at Congdon Park. If you want the same corridor with slightly newer housing, look at Woodland. If you want the nearest full grocery within walking distance, look at Kenwood.
