Awesome Cabin!
We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It’s spacious, well stocked and everything was comfortable. We really enjoyed the game room downstairs and all the comfy seating. The location of the cabin is great as well as nice and peaceful with no close neighbors. We would definitely love to stay here again! All communications with the host were positive and we were even allowed to check in a little early.

A perfect hideaway
The house and property is really stunning! Walking into the house for the first time was breathtaking! Our family ages 14 -75 enjoyed cooking together in your well stocked kitchen, playing pool and sitting by the fire. We explored the north shore beaches and waterfall hikes! We also snowshoed! My dog most enjoyed sitting in the driveway looking out at the beautiful surroundings. We have all determined an annual trip is necessary! Thank you very much for you hospitality!

Beautiful spot in the woods by Lutsen
Beautiful and well maintained property. Very private but close to Lutsen mountain and hiking and cross country trails. Kitchen is well stocked for cooking. Would recommend AWD or 4 WD in the winter. Roads are well maintained but snow covered.

Fabulous Chalet in the Woods
This property was as presented or better. The many windows provided a great view of the woods and provided much light. The layout provided lots of gathering spaces with comfortable seating. It is well stocked for kitchen items (cooking ware and plates, utensils, mugs, wine glasses, spices etc) as well as wood for the fireplace and fire pit! Our neighborhood friend group of eight loved the time we had at the chalet!

Great house
We enjoyed our stay. The house was really nice with plenty of space for us all. The parts that are showing their age are being updated or replaced so it will be even better in the coming weeks. They even made sure we were plowed out early after a snow storm. Close to Lutsen Mountain and Grand Marias!

Perfect Family Getaway for Skiers and Non-skiers
It's been days since we checked out, and I'm still daydreaming about this place. Wonderful fireplace. The heated radiant floors were heaven on Earth. Well-appointed place—especially the kitchen. There was plenty of cookware, plates, cooking accessories, etc. Beautiful location to see the stars at night. Thank you for sharing your place. (PS If you're planning to sleep in the loft, bring summer PJs. Heat rises, it was nice and toasty up there!)
