About this property

Escape to “Shared Summit” on Minnesota’s North Shore

For years our family has been coming up to Lutsen Mountains to enjoy one of the best ski resorts in the Midwest. When we discovered all the incredible things the north shore has to offer during the rest of the seasons, we had to have a home on the north shore. We wanted a place to “get away from it all”, and connect with family and friends. We bought our cozy 2 bedroom townhome last year and have had wonderful memories made here and we hope that you will make fantastic memories here at our place that we affectionately call “Shared Summit”. We’ve captured the beauty of the area with large art pieces on the walls for local landmarks and sites that you can see on our wall, and actually go and see them in person. We have a Loft bedroom (Waterfall Room) with pictures of magnificent waterfalls that are within an hours drive of our townhome. Our Living Room has art of local lighthouses and cliffs that you can visit. Our lower level bedroom (The Ski Room) highlights the winter fun of Lutsen Mountain Resort!with a double bed and single bunk beds that comfortably accommodate 6 guests (we do have a small pull out couch to ‘squeeze in’ 2 more guests if your a ‘close group’). Whatever Minnesota North Shore adventures you have planned, you can come home to relax in front of a crackling fire, lounge on the deck, enjoy over 50 games with your group on our Infinity Game table, challenge someone to a game on Xbox, or make some popcorn, pull up an oversized bean-bag and enjoy a movie on our 65” TV with theatre sound in our “Ski Room”. We have everything you need to feel right at home!

Perfect spot for our family: kids loved the game table and basement solitude, location couldn't be easier for in-out, and we really enjoyed being able to relax to those views!

We had an excellent stay here! The home is clean, cozy and comfortable. The coffee and hot chocolate bar is a perfect touch, especially when paired with ease of ski-in and ski-out. Thanks again for a great time.

We had so much fun visiting the area. It was fall and luckily the weather cooperated. The games and infinity table at the cabin were a hit with all of us. We would stay here again if we are in the area

Overall, this place was fantastic! Plenty of space for our family of 5, comfy beds, great kitchen, coffee bar, fireplace, use of the indoor pool/hot tub at the Caribou Highlands lodge, the infinity game table, the ski in-ski out access, Shayla our host was on top of everything, all 5 stars. A few things to note: 1. There is NOT a in-unit sauna as is stated in the title of the listing. There is no sauna at all. It needs to be taken off the listing title. Easy fix. 2. We were skiing with little kids and the ski in ski out was GREAT. You get right on the moose access trail from behind the townhouses and it is a gradual downhill ski to the Caribou Express lift on Moose mountain. My 6 year old was able to do it with a little help from mom and dad pulling him along, but if you can skate on your skis, you will be fine. It was a game changer to be able to come easily back to the townhouse for lunch each day instead of paying crazy prices at the chalet for food. It is well worth the price tag if you are wondering if the ski-in, ski-out is really worth it. It is!
