Our barn was renovated as a labor of love for our daughter’s wedding in 2012. Its 80 year-old patina is built of nothing less than the devotion, hard work, and tenacity of the Finns that settled our corner of the Wisconsin northwoods. We carry on that tradition by working as hard to make everyone’s wedding as special as our daughter’s was.
Come enjoy the carefully curated grounds, gardens, and multiple buildings and ceremony sites that ensure you get exactly what you want. Spend a weekend with your closest family and friends building some of the best memories of your life.
A luxurious resort located on spectacular Lake Superior shoreline, just 20 miles from Duluth, Larsmont Cottages offers...

To say that Brule River Barn exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. From the first time we went to look at the barn we were in love with this venue. In fact, this was the first, and the ONLY venue we looked at because it is so amazing.
We were immediately impressed by the attention to even the most minute details. Moreover, what sealed the deal for us was Jill! When we met with her, she told us that BRB was about helping people create a wedding experience that they would never forget and that she valued quality time spent with loved ones. Having the barn for the whole weekend really meant we had that time to celebrate surrounded by those we love. So many other venues we'd seen online allowed us to arrive by 8 am and be out before midnight. For us, this felt so rushed because we were having friends and family fly in from all over the world and every second together was important. At BRB, we truly felt that the value was family first! While Jill could easily host multiple weddings every weekend, her choice to let couples have the entire weekend at the barn really spoke volumes that she was true to her word, and that family time is a quality that she wants to help nurture.
As far as our time at the venue during our wedding weekend, it was absolutely wonderful. Every small detail, from the barn to the cottages and summer kitchen was covered. Jill was available and stopped in to see if we needed anything and was so accommodating.
We could go on and on about how wonderful this place is not only for weddings but even just for a getaway to spend time in nature with the ones you love. We will continue to recommend BRB to everyone!!!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue and it’s owners (Kirk and Jill)! I have known the owners my entire life and they are nothing short of amazing! Jill will bend over backwards to make sure you and your guests are taken care of and that everything runs smoothly! The barn is absolutely breathtaking and the flowers, ponds, rock work, etc only adds to its beauty! Weddings can be so stressful but I never had to stress about this venue! It even poured during the ceremony and we still had it outside, umbrellas and all :) Best venue around!

This place is just amazing. I can't say enough good things about the barn and Jill. Every detail has been well thought out and executed.
I own A.T. Entertainment in Duluth, and we provide DJ/Photo Booth/& Event Lighting services throughout Minnesota & Wisconsin, and we have seen pretty much every venue within 150 miles of Duluth. The Brule Barn is one of our favorite venues to return to. The completely renovated two story barn is a perfect location for weddings, reunions, and more. Jill (the owner) is an absolute dream to work with, and makes things so easy. If you are looking for a barn style event this is by far the best venue around. We quite often will run sound for the ceremony underneath the beautiful Willow Tree, then transition right to cocktail hour and dinner on the first floor, and then get the party started on the second floor. We recommend adding some up lighting and a photo booth along with a DJ package at this event.
What a truly phenomenal, one-of-a-kind venue! Jill has created a magical world to host a wedding with everything you need onsite. We love adding personal touches to our clients weddings and coordinating on the event weekend! We couldn't recommend this venue more highly!
