This place is amazing. It has open spaces, a fully stocked kitchen and a wood burning fireplace with a large supply of wood. It is spotless and organized. I was grateful for the pet policy. We stayed in the winter and the driveway is short and steep so 4 wheel drive is best. My son did need a several person push up the driveway after a little bit of snow. This a my favorite VRBO I’ve stayed in. I’d say book it!

Beautiful location! Great place for a group of adults.

This place had plenty of room for our group of 10 adult1. It was so homey and beautiful! We loved the location and going snowshoeing on the lake! Definitely make sure to bring 4WD in the winter.

Great times in Lutsen!

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful cabin where we enjoyed tons of space to eat, play and have fun with friends. The lake was so quiet on our midweek we could paddle board and play frisbee right on the water.

Great location, while still being remote. Lake is huge and the views are even better. 8 minutes to the ski hill, would prefer this over a ski in/ ski out. Very clean and homey vibes.

Great winter escape!

Location was perfect for winter fun. On a lake, close to snowmobile trails, and Lutsen Mountain is a few miles away. Very nice house with very comfortable beds, excellent kitchen, and plenty of space for everyone to relax. Highly recommended!

Worth Every Penny

This is our second year staying at this cabin. It’s big, beautiful, comfortable, on a beautiful piece of property, close enough to everything you want to do but far enough away to be quiet. Absolutely recommend this place!

Nice and close to Lutsen mountain! And there's a great little hiking trail to Caribou Lake overlook and Superior trail. The cabin is beautiful and well-provisioned. It's fully stocked in the kitchen and the bathrooms all have body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. The fireplace was great and warmed up the cabin well in frigid temps. All 10 of us had plenty of space to hang out as well. The owner was very responsive when the electronic lock didn't work upon arrival. Two items that would make it even better: 1) turn on the in-floor heat prior to our arrival (the house was 60 deg when we arrived and it takes quite a while to warm up) and 2) evaluate the water pressure- it was very inconsistent to the point that it comes out as a drizzle from a faucet.

Good experience - just wished we knew they were building a home next to our rental. Difficult being in the woods and the noise you hear is pounding all day long.

Very nice overall

We stayed recently and overall enjoyed the cabin. It seems like they could make a few tweaks to make it an exceptional rental. Some suggestions: provide firewood daily (a very small amount was provided and I was told no when I asked for more), move the bunk bed out of the second bedroom to make that a king bed downstairs, fix the gap in the floor in the loft bathroom, fix the faucet in the kitchen so that it doesn't make that sound.

Fall Break

This was a perfect setting for a fall getaway. The property was clean and well appointed and maintained. The property contact promptly answered all our questions. My wife and I and our young adult kids and their spouses/significant others enjoyed an evening fire in the fireplace and a bonfire out on the back patio. Great spaces to gather in a beautiful setting. Enough room to accommodate everyone and prepare big meals for the crew. Perfect!
