Big Cedar House: Quiet Trees, Golf, Winery, 1 mile to ski, Firepit. EV charger
the home is on the golf course 1 mile from the ski area in a quiet neighborhood. If you are looking for some R&R welcome home!
Each level (3 levels with 3 bathrooms/showers) of this 2600 SF newly built home has a covered porch facing the sunset colors peeking through the cedars. A perfect spot to breathe deep, let your shoulders relax, and uncork a bottle from the neighboring winery. With 2 kitchens and multiple living areas the house works well for groups wanting extra space.
Nestled on a 27 hole golf course, Big Cedar House is blessed with a prime location! With views of the ski area and Lake Superior, guests can cozy up with a book or take a short walk to the winery. The home sits on a foundation that rolls into an old growth ring of cedar trees. There you will find a peaceful and quiet firepit. This ring of cedar trees captured the hearts of the owners. The lot is unique in that with the encompassing foliage you would never guess you were on a golf course until you hear the occasional “ting” of a golf club or the cheer of a good shot. Otherwise it is a quiet forest with chipmunks and squirrels going about their day to day.
Big Cedar House is a versatile structure with 2600 sf and 3 stories. Each level has sleeping arrangements with cozy blankets, comfy pillows, and a clean bathroom. Each level of this newly (2019/2020) built home has a covered porch facing the cedar trees for sunset colors peeking through the pines. A perfect spot to breathe deep, let your shoulders relax, and uncork a bottle from the local winery.

Loved this property! We were in Lutsen for the Superior Fall Trail Races and the multiple levels of the home was perfect. We each had our own private level, but also had perfect space for gathering. Would definitely stay here again!
The house was very clean and comfortable. There was more than enough room for our large family and we all had our own spaces to retreat to when we wanted. I would not hesitate to book again.
The property provided both private and communal spaces for the 3 families. We enjoyed the fire circle in the back yard, even though we chose not to have a fire. The trees and nature were gorgeous! The decks on each floor were really nice too.
First of all, the photos of the property don't give it enough props because when you arrive you'll see that it appears larger and is far nicer than you better expect. It provides Excellent upkeep, Excellent kitchen supplies, Comfy beds, and ample bathroom facilities. It's also in a great location that's only 20 minutes from Grand Marais, and even closer to Blue Fin Bay. Finally, the property has a standing video game console that'll keep your family busy for hours.
There were three adults and four teenagers in our family group, and this house worked out perfect for us. There were three levels with sleeping quarters, two living room areas, two kitchen areas and three bathrooms - perfect! There's plenty of parking, and a really cool firepit spot in the woods.
This house is great! The basement was perfect for all the ski equipment on and off. The bedrooms were well explained and the space upstairs was perfect for the kids to hang out in while the adults had their space to play cards and hang out!! Will definitely be our new place to stay for a Lutsen ski trip!!
So close to the slopes! We had a great time in this fun house! Lots of space and everything g we needed. Couldn’t be happier. We will definitely book this place again.
Fun accommodations. Good privacy for two bedrooms with great upstairs sleeping for young-ish people. Good kitchen for eating as a big group. Bring your own crockpot :)
We had the most amazing time here & the weather was perfect for fall. Enjoyed sitting on the deck and the bonfire pit. Walking distance to a winery, Lutsen gondola, walking trails, and Grand Marais. Thanks for an amazing stay!
Ben was super responsive and a great host. The house was really well stocked and worked perfectly for a family of 10. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to get away on the north shore.
We had a great family vacation with 9 ranging from 12 to 70. Good location for various activities. Clean house with lots to do. Love the three levels with three bathrooms! A great fit!

About the host
Hosted by Ben
Big Cedar House was built by Kelly and Ben Suchy. It was built with mid-west blue collar work ethic. These are not wealthy owners lol. Kelly is a 3rd grade teacher and Ben is a musician and entrepreneur. They had a good team of friends and family during the build and a lot of guidance from the Corliss family at the winery.
Ben would bring the kids to the Bismarck YMCA for "kid watch" and have 2 hours to help organize the build. He would also take about 20 trips up from Bismarck to jump on the crew or haul material while Kelly stayed back with the kids. Max Wahlers was the main builder and Ben and his friends stained siding (old MN line posts!) sealed concrete floors, sheetrocked and tiled bathrooms, and a laundry list of other jobs!
Why they chose this property
Ben and Kelly came up to Lutsen for the bike race and fell in love with the area. Ben had a gig singing at the local winery the day after the race and they found out a lot was available. They ended up planning a trip up in the following weeks and bought the lot.
